Even though it's been years since being at The Tower of Heaven, it still haunts me in my dreams. I still remember it like it was yesterday. It all started when I was separated from my brother while we were brought in by the kidnappers. Since I wasn't able to scream or shout out to him I was put in an other section of the tower. He was the only one I trusted and I lost it in a matter of seconds.
I was thrown into a cell with a few adults, four boys and a girl all around my age. I sat on the ground and hugged my knees to my chest. I laid my head on my knees and cried silently. Not like I could make sound anyway. Ever since I was born I have been unable to talk or make noise. A small hand on my shoulder brought me out of my thoughts. I looked up and saw the girl looking at me with a sad smile.
"It's okay. We'll get out of here one day, I'm sure of it. Anyways I'm Sorano." I give a small smile and look around for a rock. I find one and write my name in the dirt. "Nice to meet you (Y/N), but can't you talk?" I shake my head 'no'.
"Who cares less noise?" says the maroon haired boy with a baby snake. Sorano puts her hands on her hips.
"Erik! Be nice!" she scolds.
"Tch. Whatever." he pauses. "Not that I care, but why can't you talk?" he asks. I silently giggle.
That was only the beginning for us. We each had a wish in our hearts. Erik wanted to be able to hear the voice of his one true friend. Sorano wanted to fly away and be beautiful like an angel. Richard wanted to be able to see his brother again. Macbeth wanted to be able to sleep peacefully. Sawyer wanted to run away and keep running so he would never get caught again. As for me I wanted to be able to be heard.
I had always hated not being able to communicate with the others, but now with my copy magic I can communicate with them. My magic allows me to use another wizards magic and use their voice, however they have to be within a certain radius. Much like Sawyer's magic. Once we escaped the tower and received our magic I joined my friends in a dark guild connected to the Balan Alliance called the Oracion Seis. Brain had said that Macbeth... I mean Midnight and I were his secret weapons. However I think he just didn't want Erik... I mean Cobra and I to be around each other.
We do tend to cause a lot of trouble when we're together. I like being around Cobra though. I don't have to waste magic energy around him. He can hear my hearts voice when I want him to. Then there's the chance that I might have and crush on the poison dragon slayer. Oh who am I kidding? I've liked him since our time in the tower.
"Serenity c'mon!" calls Cobra. I walk away from the unconscious light wizards and over to Cobra's side. He hops on Cubellios' back and holds his hand out for me to take. I grab his hand and he pulls me up with him. I wrap my arms around his waist as we take off.
I'm so tired. When we get back I'm taking a nap.
"Well that's gonna have to wait cause we ain't heading back yet."
What? Why?
"Why not? Don't you want to hang out with your best friend?"
Well of course I do. *sigh* Fine, but if I fall asleep it isn't my fault.
"Well maybe you shouldn't have used so much of your magic energy."
What? I like using your dragon slayer magic. It's so cool.
Cubellios flies into a clearing. she hovers slightly above the ground so Cobra and I could hop off. Once we were off she landed beside Cobra. He grabs my hand and begins to lead me into the trees. It confused me, because he never acts like this. His grip wasn't tight nor loose. It was in the middle. Like he didn't want to hurt me nor lose me.
"Follow me."
Where are you taking me?
"I saw a nice place for us to sit and talk for a while." once the trees clear I see a small clearing and hear rushing water. He let's go of my hand, which becomes cold soon after. I walk at his pace and see a waterfall that runs over into a small pond.
Woah! This is so pretty!
"I knew you'd like it." he says turning and looking me in the eyes. A hint of pink dusts his cheeks. "Listen (Y/N) I've been meaning to say this for a while. You know me I'm not good with sappy stuff, but... I love you. I have for the longest time and I understand if..."
I cut him off by jumping into his arms causing us to fall to the ground. I laid on top of him smiling like an idiot. I leaned in and kissed him. He was shocked at first, but kissed back. He wrapped his arms around my back and deepened the kiss. Soon we both needed air, so we pulled away and locked eyes.
"Be mine?" I smile at him.
Well duh. Why else would I kiss you? *pause* I love you too Erik. He chuckles and we lay there and talk for a while.
