Cyndy

The sun's rays was violent against my eyes. I block the light with my hands to make my eyes adjust with it's intensity. After a while, I decided to move up from where I am laying. I groan because of the pain that radiated all over my body as if I fell from the sky.

I look around and notice that I am in an empty alley beside a dumpster. Well that explains the foul smell. I gathered all my strength to stand on my feet. After standing up, that is just when I noticed how dirty my clothes are. This is what you get for sleeping in the dumpsters.

In the first place, why am I here? What am I doing here? Where did I come from?

Who am I?

Realization hits me hard on the face. I don't remember anything. Fear then engulf my mind.

I ran as fast as I can out of the alley till I arrived at the side of a busy street. People are walking fast, some are talking to some square shape thingy that I don't know. I push my way to the crowd but to my luck no one seems to pay attention to me.

I walk past them until I reach a park. The park is beautiful, it is the only green place I saw ever since I woke up. There are people walking, some are eating, some are talking to other people and some just sit at the benches admiring the beauty and serenity the place offers.

I walk to the nearest bench and sit there. Groaning, I put my head into my hands. Why can't I remember a thing? I close my eyes trying hard to remember a thing, something, anything.

I heard footsteps approaching me so I open my eyes and look through my fingers and saw a pair of shiny black shoes.

Raising my head, I see a beautiful man dressed in a cherry red slacks and red coat. White polo with a black tie. His dark hair neatly cobbed to place. He have blue eyes and straight nose and also a beautiful red lips. His jaw is strong that complimented with the rest of his face perfectly.

"There you are Cyndy." He said with a smile. He seems to relax a bit, like he had found something his been looking for.

Who is he talking to?

I look around me to see if there is any other person near me that might be the one that he is referring to. When I saw that no one beside me is anywhere near us, I pointed to myself and look at him again with a questioning look on my faces with an eyebrow raised.

"Hmm... Seems like Pap's erase your memories as well. Here let me help you with that." He then put his Index and middle finger against my forehead.

A wave of heat radiated for the point where his fingers touches my skin. It radiated through out my body. It lasted for at least three seconds and was suddenly replace by coldness, then electricity. Then I feel my head lightened. I close my eyes instinctively and that's when my memories came back to me.

"Isaac?" I said to the man in front of me.

"Yes. It is I, my sweet sister." He said with that familiar smirk in his faces.

I thought I'd never see him again. I stared at my brother Isaac longer than what is wanted which probably caused him to be a little bit uncomfortable.

"Why? Why are you here?" I ask him but he just give me his usual smirk.

"Well, grandmother took pity on you. You know how the two of us belongs on the list of her favorite grandchildren right?" He said as if it was so obvious.

"I want to know the details." I said.

"Geez... You sound like you are asking about my sex life." He said with fake discuss showing in his face. Some times I forgot he is one hundred fifty eight years older than me. I glared at him and he just raise his hands up in the air in surrender and continue on telling me the things I want to know.

"Okay so this is the thing. When dad banishes you for our place. Mother talk to dad about it but he's really not listening to mom. So mom turned to Grandma and had her talk to dad about removing you punishment. Well it is more like dad is getting scolded by grandma. It was really funny actually, you should have seen it."

I just rolled my eyes at him. Well I'm sorry I'm not there cause I'm here busy remembering who I am.

"Can you just please continue Bro."

"Okay, so long story short grandma sent me here to you to deliver a message. You will be forgiven and your punishment will be over when you accomplish the task that they will give to you. But as of now, you will stay here but don't worry grandma got it all covered." He handed me a key and a paper with an address written on it and also a wallet. "She even bought you your own house here to stay in, an ID and credit card. But the card is limited. You can only use a certain amount very day."

I look at the things he handed me. I guess grandma really loves her favorites, I'm glad I am one of it.

"What do I have to do to be able to go back?" I asked him.

"Well this will be your new assignment." He handed me a folder. "That's Ashley Clarkson. She's been out there breaking hearts and making people bitter about love. And your mission is to get her fall in love. Find her someone that is right for her."

I scan the folder and read the basic information in the front page.

Name: Ashley Clarkson
Age: 18
Birthday: March 8, 199*
Gender: Female
School: Brickwood Highschool
Talent: Dancing, Singing, Acting
Sports: Swimming, Badminton, Boxing, Gymnastics
Hobbies: Reading Book and Breaking Hearts.

Her last hobby got me raising my eyebrow again. Seriously? Breaking hearts is even considered a hobby?

I look at the picture on the upper right side.

I saw a beautiful girl with dark brown hair and luring blue eyes. Her long eyelashes are perfect against her blue eyes. Her perfectly sculptured nose and her red full lips that makes me wonder if it is just because of lipstick that's why it's so red. The way she stare at the picture with the slight smirk on her face as if she's up to something which is definitely not good.

"She's beautiful right?" Isaac's voice is the only reason why I stop looking at the picture of the girl who will be my mission.

"Yes I guess." I admitted.

"That's the reason why she's the one grandma chooses as your target. You know how grandma is towards something that's beautiful." He said which I get so clearly. I know grandma so much and her affinity to beautiful things and creatures. So I nod in agreement.

"Well I guess that's all you need to know right now. See you again sis." He start to walk away but then stop suddenly as if he just remembered something. "By the way, your bow and arrow is on your house. But you only have three shots so be careful. We know how bad your aim is. But please don't start a war this time like you did in Afghanistan." He look behind at me smirking which annoyed me. When will he even stop teasing me?

"Bye sis. Love ya and may love guide you and set your heart to the right path." And with that his wings appeared for his back tearing his coat slightly just enough for his wings to extend freely. And with one strong thrust, his already in the sky slowly disappearing for my sight.

I sigh and look at all the things that he handed me.

Well I better get started if i want to be back home as soon as possible. And with that I stood up from the bench and walk to the side of the road to get myself a taxi.

I just hope this goes good and not like the other missions I've got before.

May the Gods give me favor and may love be on my side. I slightly send my prayer. I hope someone answers to them.
