bright lights and secrets

and here the story starts

twilight, was soon flooding the warm bright sun. 5 young travelers, (wait, no, it's 4, because Ruel isn't exactly young) were walking down the forest trail.

Eva took a look around, and realized is was getting utterly dark. "we should take a rest here, it's getting dark." Eva announced. Dally looked around, nodding in agreement with Eva. "this is a good place too! right under the stars!" Yugo said energetically. Amalia gazed above her, and gasped at the sight of such beauty.

soon, they were all sleeping in beds (made by Amalia), dozing off under the stars, but maybe, you will realize they were not all sleeping. Amalia twisted and turned frantically, but she just couldn't get herself to sleep, something was bothering her. her eyes slowly opened, squinting a little at first. she sat up, and looked if anyone else was up. "well, no luck," she told herself. until she thought she saw a bed empty. Amalia stood up, looking at all the beds. the plant princess soon found her answer, Yugo was missing, all that was left was his hat. "he.. he never takes off his hat... i hope he's ok..." she thought.

Amalia was about to look around for him, until a bright blue light over powered black of night. it was coming from a tree. the princess' eyes squinted at the bright light ahead of her. whispers. whispers were heard, ones of a child. Amalia hesitated, arguing whether she should check it out or not. she soon decided to check it out.

royalty tiptoed across the grass, getting closer and closer to the mysterious glow in the dark of night. she reached the tree, but soon had got off of the ground, riding one of her brambles to the top of the tree where the glow had originated. Amalia sat there silently, as she saw what was the cause of the bright blue light. a figure of a boy, who looked to be about 12, was sitting at the end of a tree branch gazing at the stars above him. "but... what about the glow?" Amalia thought to herself.

but alas the princess had found her answer, as she examined the boy, she tried very hard not to slap herself. "why did i not realize this before?" she thought. Amalia had now realized that this boy had a pair of magnificent blue wings emerging from his head, starting at the cranium. as she looked more, she gaped at their beauty, as the energy kept constantly flowing.

but the boy had heard her gasp, and the wings perked up as he realized he was not alone. he turned around, "who's there?" he whispered. "that was a close one," Amalia thought as her bramble ducked down just in time. but that voice, she had sworn she recognized that voice, "but it couldn't be," Amalia thought.

the boy sighed, "every time i have my hat off i feel like i'm being watched, every time.. i know.. i know that one day.. i'll have to show them.. i know....." he took a deep breath. tears started to run down his face, his wings drooping down. he covered his face with his hands and repeated again and again, "i can't... i can't.... i can't.... i can't i can't i can't! "

"i just know that's him.. is this the type of pain he's been going through?" she thought to herself. the boy wiped his tears away, and had soon whispered, "i think that's enough for tonight..." he jumped off the tree floating down the the ground, walking to the hat he left, and putting it back on before climbed back into bed.

"i knew it! it is Yugo! that's the same voice, hair, attitude i could recognize anywhere! so.. this is really how much he's been going through, i just wish there was some way i could help him.." she thought, until an idea struck Amalia.

Eva yawned as everything was bathed in sunlight as the morning arrived.
