------------------------------------

Allistor and I stared at the sleeping toddler; his blond locks were filthy along with his face. He wore green rags and a black cloak. The cold wind blew his face causing him to wake up suddenly. He let out a soft whimper.

I rubbed my hand on his cold cheek, he stopped crying. I felt his forehead to find out that he had a fever.

I gasped, "Allistor, we've go' to do somethin'. This child is all alone."

"I knew you were gonna do somethin'." He said, "But who's gonna 'ake care of 'his wee lad?"

I thought for a second, I had no siblings of my own, so I didn't have much experience taking care of children, nevertheless I picked up the boy. He began to cry.

I rocked him up and down in my arms. "Shhh...It's okay. You're safe now." I said; his cries turned into a whimper as he huddled close to my chest. 

Allistor's POV

"So 'hat's it. You're taking a random child in your home?" I questioned _____________.

"Yes," she replied.

"Do you even know wha' responsibili'ies you would have?"

"I'll find out. It won't be too hard!" She said. "Now if you would please, le' the wee lad have some sleep."

We walked up the dirt trails home. I rubbed the back of my neck where I could the beginning of my scar. I wonder what that boy went through all alone in the woods.
