Crimson POV:
"TIME TO WAKE UP! TIME TO WAKE UP BRATS!" A mans voice yelled. My eyes flung open. Pans banging together filled my ears. I opened and closed my eyes until they came into view. I looked to my left. Lux looked back. I twitched my head 2 times up to the ceiling, and she rolled her eyes, grinning. I drowsily got up. 13 other children got up too, aging from 4-10. I helped them get ready, along with Lux. We then clomped downstairs to the dining room. We sat down and quickly gulped down breakfast, before Mrs. Fallow woke up. Mr. Fallow was okay. But Mrs. Fallow always had her whip. She whipped us when ever possible. Most of the day, we we're either in the basement, our room, or the dining room. I made sure everyone was finished, then rushed everyone downstairs. I pushed them all down, then put my finger to my lips. I heard Mrs. Fallows clunking steps bang down on the stairs. They nodded and ran deeper down. Me and Blu turned to Mrs. Fallow leaning over us.
"Oh, hello, Mrs. Fallow! How wonderful you are looking this morning!" Lux said. I nodded in agreement. Mrs. Fallow looked taken back.
"Oh yes. Is there anything you would like us to do for our lady?" I said politely.
"No. You have been exceptional this week. Go out. Be back by 6." She said reluctantly, and threw a bag that jingled at my head. Me and Lux ran outside.
We ran to the candy store and got two huge bags of candy for everyone, and somethings for ourselves. We laughed, played, and talked. Life seemed so, perfect, away from the children's home.
"So. Imagine a life with real parents." Lux said to me. I pulled my fingers through my blood red hair hair. I named myself Crimson. Red was a beautiful color.
"I would have rich parents. We would go to balls, we would feast, and I would swim in the most expensive items in Europe its self!" I yelled, twirling. I suddenly heard footsteps. I looked up to the roof. Black flashed away. I cocked my head. Probably a crow of some sort.
"Me to. We would have grand tea partys and the most handsome men laying at our feet!" Lux yelled, jumping. We laughed. Lightning flashed. We sceamed and ran back to the children's place, yelling. But the rain soon came away. We admired the rainbow. I linked elbows with her.
"Together?" I whispered. She didn't answer for a while. Then nodded. We linked apart and walked home.
"Of corse." She said when we reached our "home". I grinned and opened the door.
The next morning Lux was gone. She had tipped toed out of the house, and ran down the street. Her tracks just disappear right outside London.
I was now all alone. Utterly alone. Why had she left? I thought we would always be together, or at least know each other.
I worked with Scotland Yard. I traced the ground, looked all over our house, everything. The only thing that was left was a strange raccoon necklace in the attic, were lost things were. I found my necklace though. It was a necklace with a long, gold chain, and pointed crystals in different sizes pointing out of a gold ring at the bottom of the chain, and those crystals were garnets, my middle name. I was in-between naming myself Garnet or Crimson, but Crimson took over.
A year of tirelessly looking. But now no one searched for Lux. I still did. But I never found her.
