Third person POV:

A young girl with long, red hair lied in the middle of the street in Fox Town. The sky was dark and little stars were still about. Very few people were around on the streets and neon lights lit up the dark streets. The girl on the street was very pale and had black markings on her body. She was wearing a school uniform that was dirty and ripped. The logo on the uniform was faded and un readable.

Two sets of footsteps echoed through the streets as two shadows walked down the street, stopping in front of the girl.

"W-When do you think she's going to w-wake up?" A light, timid voice asked.

"Stop worrying you crybaby. Are you doubting my magic?" The other voice asked. It was bold and confidant.

"N-No..."

"That's what I thought. She should be waking up in the morning. So make sure to set our set up near by."

"R-Right!"

~~~

Morning came quickly and the girl on the street squeezed her eyes shut before sitting up.

"Ughhhh.... Where am I....?" She asked, opening her eyes and looking around in confusion. People were going about their daily business, chatting, buying food, doing street performances and shopping. No one even shot the confused girl a second glance as she slowly got to her feet and got out of her street. "What's wrong with these clothes? Why on earth was I lying on the ground? And why can't I see anything?" The girl asked herself. She began inwardly panicking as she held onto the side of a building to steady herself.

"I can't remember anything!" She whispered, her eyes widening. The girl took a deep breath to calm herself, only to hear the sound of drums coming from down the street, where many people had stopped to listen. The sound of the drums soothed the red head slightly, the familiar sound bringing the girl closer to the noise. The girl weaved herself through the crowd until she could see two blurry figures. A yellow one and a blue one. The colorful blurs were playing music together as people in the crowd cheered and tossed money into the hat on the ground.  

The girl listened to the two play music for hours without even realizing it. And soon,the two were finished.

"E-Excuse me... Miss? C-Can we help y-you?" A timid voice asked as the blue blur came closer to the red head. The girl blinked and shook her head, smiling.

"Ah, no. Sorry. You guys are really good at playing!" The girl complemented.

"You look familiar. Have we met before?" A blood voice asked as the yellow blur stood next to the blue blur. 

"I don't think so... But... I wouldn't be able to remember... I just woke up on the street with no memory..." The girl, rubbing the back of her neck sheepishly before pausing. "Wait... I shouldn't tell complete strangers that..." The yellow blur laughed loudly.

"You're funny! Say something else!" He exclaimed.

"B-Bill! S-S-Stop that!" The blue blur whispered, nudging the yellow blur lightly before turning back to the red head. "I'm uhh... I m-mean... My n-name is Will. T-This is my brother Bill."

"Hey! I can introduce myself you crybaby!" Bill yelled at Will, who flinched.

"I'm (Y/n)." The girl said before pausing again. "I think... That name sounds right though... So I guess I'll stick with it..."

"(Y/n) hm?" Bill mused, circling the red head a couple times before stopping in front of her again. A wicked smirk formed of Bill's lips as he grabbed (Y/n)'s waist and threw her over his shoulder.

"Hey! What are you doing? This could be classified as kidnapping!" (Y/n) exclaimed, blindly kicking Bill, who didn't seemed fazed by the pain. Bill began walking off, Will following after him.

"I-It's getting late. Y-Y-You probably don't have a p-place to stay... S-So you can stay w-w-with us..." Will said, looking away nervously. "I-I mean, I-if you want to... You don't have to... W-Well... Y-You actually kinda have t-to... B-But it's not like you'll die from staying w-with us!" Will rambled.

"Shut up you crybaby!" Bill ordered. Will just nodded.

"Let me go! Let me go! Let me go!" (Y/n) yelled, squirming around in Bill's grip. Bill rolled his eyes and let go of her. She fell head first and landed on the ground with a thud. (Y/n)'s eyes rolled to the back of her head and her body went limp.

"Whoops. My bad..." Bill said sarcastically as he picked (Y/n) up again.

"B-Bill... T-That wasn't n-n-nice. W-We're suppose to p-protect her. N-Not harm her..." Will mumbled, walking beside his brother.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever. I only knocked her out. Stop your stupid worrying crybaby."

~~~

(Y/n) woke up with a gasp, her eyes flying open. Her long red hair was drenched and had cold water dripping from it.

"Good! You're up!" Bill said cheerfully, tossing a bucket to the side. The bucket landed on Will's head, making him scream in fear and frantically try to pull it off.

"Why would you dump cold water on my head?!" (Y/n) asked, narrowing her eyes at Bill. Bill just shrugged. 

"I can do what I want. You're living in my house now." Bill stated.

"You FORCED me to be here."

"Details. Details." Bill dissmissed, waving his hand. "Anyways, we will be training you starting now. So prepare yourself."

"Wait, train? What for?" (Y/n) asked, tilting her head to the side.

"For surviving of course."

"T-The basics.... H-Hand t-to hand c-c-combat, target p-practice, p-pick pocketing... T-Things like that." Will explained, his voice being muffled by the bucket, which was still stuck on his face.

"Why do I need to know those things?" (Y/n) asked, walking over to Will. She grabbed the bucket and twisted it while pulling. The bucket came off Will's face. He was crying and his nose was bloody.

"T-T-Thank you..." Will mumbled before running off.

"We will also be helping you learn magic. You'll need to get all this in check within three weeks. So we will not being going easy." Bill added. "Now, prepare yourself!" He said before kicking (Y/n)'s stomach. She flew into a wall.

"What?! I wasn't ready! You can't start yet! I don't even know how to fight!" (Y/n) exclaimed, holding her head.

"In a real fight the opponent would not wait for you to get ready. Rely on your instincts and go from there." Bill explained, punching her face and kicking her into another wall. (Y/n) grunted and narrowed her eyes at the yellow blur coming towards her. She attempted to dodge, only to get hit with another attack. Will winced as he watched from the side lines.

"T-This is going to be a r-r-rough couple of w-weeks for her..."
