The Water Edel Raid

Prologue

A girl is running on the road with a cloak covering her face and body.

'I have to get away!' She thought and hears a motorbike is coming closer to her and she hides away into the forest near the road.

She hides there for ten minutes from the rider of the motorbike and that person passes away from her location. She then decides to come out and begins to run again.

~A few days later~
At a house

The girl is slowly walking on the road from fatigue and she gets near a house by the well. When the door opens, a young man comes out with a bucket and sees her. The young man has brown hair and eyes and wears a black shirt, blue pants and black and blue shoes. The girl then collapses on the ground, making the young man to drop the bucket and run towards her.

"HEY! Are you all right?" He asks and shakes her. "Get a hold of yourself!"

The man continues to shake her, making the hood to fall showing the girl's blue hair and she wears a blue dress that goes down to her knees. The man looks around before looking at the girl again.

"For now, I should bring you to my house." He says and carries her to his house.

~An hour later~

As the man watches the girl sleeping on the bed, the girl stirs and slowly opens her eyes.

"Are you awake?" The man asks and the girl looks at him.

"Who are you?" She asks.

"Oh sorry. I'm Takeshi." He introduces. "And you are?"

"Mizuki..." She answers and starts to get off the bed, but she wobbles.

"I think you shouldn't be moving." Takeshi tells her. "You look really exhausted when I saw you collapse like that. We're you running away?"

Mizuki looks down and didn't answers to Takeshi's question and he scratches his head.

"It's fine if you don't answer." He says.

Takeshi then sees something sparkling between the gaps of the cloak and looks closer.

"Hey, there's something sparkling there." He points out, causing Mizuki to widen her eyes. "I wonder what it is..."

He opens the cloak and sees a blue gem on her right arm and widens his eyes before he looks at Mizuki.

"Could you be an Edel Raid, Mizuki?" He asks and she slowly nods without looking at him. "Your gem is really pretty." Mizuki looks at him with a shock expression on her face.

"Why...?" She asks. "Why can you say that?"

"'Why'? Well, I like the color blue and..." He trails off. "It really fits you really well."

"... No one says that to me when they see this..." She confesses.

"Well now you did. If you don't have a place to stay, you can live with me."

"Eh? But... Am I going to be a nuisance?"

"Not at all. After all I only live here in this house."

Outside of the house

A motorbike gets near the house and the rider—wearing a large coat—with a young girl—wearing two large disks in her green hair and she has green eyes—getting off the bike and the rider takes of his helmet showing a large scar on his face.

"Finally found you." The rider says and the little girl climbs up on his shoulder.

"Let's grab her, Wolx." The girl says.
