Miracles Through Time

Well. Sh**

(Girls thoughts)

Life is funny sometimes. Other times it's a pain in the a**. Lately it seems like all I have been doing is running away from people who are trying to kill me or am being captured by random strangers. Like seriously... Don't get me wrong, I like a little excitment in my life as much as the next person but this is not what I had mind....

I mean the whole reason I left my home land in the first place, was so that I could protect the people I love: they wouldn't be dragged into a pointless war. However, soon after I left, my life turned into a living H*ll. I was thrown off the train that was supposedly taking me to a region called Yukon. Then, I was captured by a bipolar jerk face who tied me up with chains. Like God Da*m. Who fricken ties a lady up with chains in the middle of winter in a cave!!! I swear, next time I see that guy I am gonna seriously slap him! ( That is, if I don't die first)

Anyway, long story short, this young boy named Shiro brakes my ribs by body slamming onto my chest. (Idk why my bones are so fragile. They just are. 😧 However to be fair, the doctor mentioned that Shiro is about 200 lbs......which is strange because he looks like a 7th grader that I use to see on my way to school.) After that incident, my life got even more fun. I ended up getting saved by a mysterious boy who I have yet to put a name to. Who is this boy and why does he insist on saving me?

( Back to reality) ( girls pov.)

"We're alive..." I said with a sudden feeling of relief. Just as I was about to run I felt the arms around my waist and legs tighten. Sh*t. I almost forgot about him.😑 I think to myself while looking right at my "savior" who seemed to be focused on getting as far away from the mouth of the cave as possible. His breathing sounded rough and forced as he dashed through the forest with great speed. His legs seemed to have a mind of their own as he jumped up into the trees to avoid the millions of soliders racing after us: all of which were carrying shotguns, m360s, and swords.

"Um, not to be the bearer of bad news but we are heading straight towards a cliff". I say while pointing straight ahead. The boy merely grunted in response. "H-hey, didn't you hear what I said!? We are heading towards a cliff so unless you have a death wish, please turn around or go in a different direction!" "Tch. Your a noisy one arn't you?" "I am when my life is in the hands of a stranger" I counter. "Hmm....So your saying if you got to know me better you would be quiet?" He said looking down at me: I could feel him smirking at me from under his cloak. "W- well not exactly...😶" For a brief second, I thought I caught him smiling under his cloak. Maybe it was my imagination.....

( For what seemed like an hour later)

Setting me down on a branch high in a tree he said in a whisper "I think we finally lost them." "I hope so. I mean not even they could have kept up with us with the speed you ran." I said while sliding my back against the tree. Closing my eyes, I could hear the mystery boy heeve in forced breaths like he was trying to suck all the oxogen out of the world with one breath. When I open my eyes, I catch the boy starting to fall off the branch of the tree. I soon realized he had colasped from exhaustion. It was like someone had pushed him backwards. Though his his eyes seemed unconcerned with falling from two stories. It's almost as if he is lost in thought.... I slightly panick and hastily grab the falling boy. "F*ck!" I shout in a half whisper half yelling voice while hanging onto the tree branch with my legs: my arms holding onto the boy's wrists. "Ugh!!" I groan while squeezing my eyes tight. I am not typicaly afraid of heights but this might be an exception since I am hanging upsidedown by my legs from a tree that is about 80 feet high while hanging on to a boy that is about a foot taller than me!! The weight of the boy, tugs me towards the ground. Every joint in my body feels like it is going to separate from my body and fall off. "Seriously! W- wake up d*mn it! This is no time to be taking a nap!! Ughhh!!!" Just then, I saw a smirk make its way onto the cloaked boy's features from underneath his hood. "You know, you could have just let me fall." He said in a teasing voice. A smirk still plastered on his face. "Are you crazy!? You would die if you fell from this height!" I yelled while I grab his wrists tighter: my legs slipping a little bit every few seconds. " What is it with you! I mean, you jumped threw falling debri to save a stranger, carried her to safty and now your trying to kill yourself! Who in the h*'ll do you think you are!!! I will be d*mned if you die like this after everything we've been through!! I refuse to let someone else die in front of me. So, don't you dare put that responsibility on me!!! As I practically screamed this to the hooded boy, something wet dripped down onto the boy's arms.

The boy looked at his wet arms then at me. His eyes held something I couldn't decipher. For a few seconds we both made eye contact with each other. His ocean blue eyes stared into my brown one's. "you've got guts, I'll give you that much. He says with a small genuine smile. "Say, do me a favor. Let go of the branch." He says calmly while looking at me with no emotion "YOUR INSANE!" "Awe, you scared?" I could tell he was taunting me. "Is that even a question!? Any person in their right mind would be!" Yelling this I notice my legs staring to slip more. Oh no.... "well, seeing as you are gonna slip sooner or later you may as well let go now." As he says this my legs give out and lose grip on the branch. I along with the boy are thrown toward the ground at an alarming speed: my hands never let go of the boy's wrists. "Ahhhhh!!!!!!!"

"Tch. You really should learn to not scream so loud." He says while freeing his wrists from my grasp. "Let's see....." He calmly states while looking around. "There!" Before I knew it, my feet were back on the branch of the large oak tree. I would have colasped onto my knees if the boy in the black cloak hadn't been holding me up by my waist. "Hey now. Don't be falling. I don't think I have the energy in me to save you if you fall again." All I could do was look up at him in astonishment and relief. Something inside of me felt the urge to punch him but at the same time hug him. I must have been shaking because his grip tightened around my waist. "Your something else you know that." A genuine smile spread across his half cloaked face as something wet streams down my cheeks. "Baka..."😢 I whisper while turning my head and wiping my eyes. "Guess I am not a stranger anymore since you are confortable crying in front of me. Or maybe you cry in front of every person you meet." He says in a teasing tone while bringing his face a little closer toward mine. "I hate you..." Whispering this, I couldn't help but smile a little. The boys face was inches from my ear before he whispered "You truly are, his daughter....." After whispering this I turned my head quickly to meet his eyes but ended up meeting something else instead. I was not the only one stunned when our mouths ended up touching one anouther. I quickly pushed the boy away as a blush crept its way onto my face. I could tell the boy was just as flustered as I was because under his hood a pink tint painted his cheeks. S-sorry!😶 I say as my head is facing towards the ground. "Was that your first kiss?" He asks in a serious tone while turning in the opposite direction so his back is facing me. "y-Yea......" 😶 "I see..... " with that, he jumps up into the branches and sits with his back facing me. I feel SO bad. I am such a horrible person....... Thinking this I sit down and lean back on the trunk of the tree looking up at the purple blue sky full of stars. "Buurrrh. It sure is cold tonight...." I whisper to myself while closing my eyes for the night.
