No one pov.

'The smell the taste, its...fire. the thick air and the smoky room. Even the child knew the house is burning down. A lot of yelled could be heard, it started before the sun retreated. It was ignored but it kept her up late.

She had no memory of being here, or where she was. She only knew two names besides her own. Acnologia, Irene. Mom dad were the things she thought about when she repeated these names in her head. The words had no spiritual connection behind them.

They were just words, and people that may exist. The empty feeling, it wasnt a burdened feeling she was hollow no one one the earth. She wasnt sad that she hadn't had a meaning to be here, she just wasnt aware of it.

She just felt awakened today, she knew she would be. She had the knowledge she needed to survive. The fire and screams were her awakening, she randomly appeared, the four year old child had no memory of knowing anyone or every seeing anyone but a vision on what people looked like.

Never looked at a book, but knew how to read it. Never took in air but knew how to inhale it.

The fire could almost be felt behind the door, she stared at it. She looked behind her at the window.

'Jump'

She ripped down the curtains away from her windows. The used one end and tied it to the bottom of her dresser and the other end out of the window as something to use for climbing down so she wouldn't die jumping.

Her brain worked by itself, she was smart but she wasnt the smart in her. Something else seemed to be taking care of the heafty work like someone else in her body while her mind floated away.

In her head she even discussed the weather while using the curtains to slide down. The curtain wasnt long enough so she rocked her body to the side till it swung far enough.

At a point of swinging she let go as she flew into bushes to avoid breaking anything at the cost of small injuries on her body. Her body felt pain but she brain reacted like a four year olds would.

She looked over to the right to see a skinny tall figure facing her it what seemed to be a costume with a mask covering his face.

'Run'

She ran towards a gate that didnt look hard to jump over

"Nii-chan!"

Her running came to a halt, her feet was scrapped by rocks she turned around the see dark purple hair in front of a huge fire. The guy who chased after her a second ago tried grabbing her.

She ducked under his hand and ran towards the girl, now her mind wasnt too far in the clouds.

'She needs help'

After she got near the kid her age she grabbed her hand and ran with the kid close behind her. "But nii-ch-"

She gripped onto her hand tighter once she got afraid enough she spotted a green dumpster between two buildings, 'there'

She turned to the dumpster and helped the girl who was once looking for her big brother into it.

"But-" , "survive" , "what about you?"

"...I'll be fine" she said before closing the lid, she spotted a gate. Before running away from the burning village the turned around to look at a kid who was also around her ago.

'Blue hair..that symbol...'

She turned back and ran over to the gate and climbed over it, she kept running through the forest.

'Fire spreads'

The leaves and the trees they will burn, she turned back towards the village.

'Did I leave her to die? I could have taken her right?'

Being honest she felt as if no one could travel the path she headed, she herself probably wouldn't make it to the end of this path. So if she couldnt finish her path was it really hers?

She walked and walked till her legs went numb, she stayed awake, well kind of. When shed fall asleep ever little noise became louder  it wasnt way too loud it was like an alarm every five minutes.

Soon it became irritating, shed have to keep walk. At the rate she was going she didnt have food or water, she would die out pretty soon.

It was still night, the moon was out so she wouldn't be sweating too much, but food was still a problem. And when the sun come up she will need a water sorce to drink from or she'll dehydrate.

She started walking till she seen a cave In the side of a large mountain. It looked dark the entrance was kind of large but it blocked out the moon so she could use it for shelter during the day.

Atleast she was making progress, she headed into the cave, it was much bigger on the inside than it was on the outside. She seen something huge and it was glowing blue, she noticed the scales.

She couldnt put together what it was, she was basically just staring. "Leave" it said, its tone of voice was deep and raspy, erza took a step back and turned towards the exit.

"Pushy much.." she mumbled, the dragon turned towards her. The mythical creature only seen her shoulder length hair, the black dress and her visible arms and legs.

"What's your name kid?" It asked, she smiled and turned back. "Erza
