13 years ago...

                        I sat on the wooden handcrafted swing my father had made me just last year, before my mother had died on my 9th birthday just months ago, thinking about how much my dad had changed. He now worked all the time at the bakery, day and night, while I roamed the town alone, or just sat at home. Instead of seeing his perky smile every time I woke up next to him in the mornings and him sing me his favorite song as I fell asleep.

                       I climbed down from the swing, feeling the grass between my barefoot toes. A boy runs by and before I attempt to wave he puts his leg out and trips me, making me fall and my beautiful dark brown hair get twigs and dirt between its thick layers. I feel tears drip down my face, then i feel two arms lifting me off the ground. I look up and see another boy with black hair and low weighted, gray armor covering him, along with a mask covering his mouth.

                      "Hi...t-thank you........." I say as I get onto my feet.

                     "Hm....your.... welcome......." He replies shyly.

                      "I'm Dawn"

                      "Em......I'm Zane ."

                      "Zane Romèave?"

                      "Uh....yeah......"

                      "Why did you help me up?"

                      "Why wouldn't I?"

                      "Normally people ignore me......"

                      "Well I didn't.......um.......so did you want to hang out sometime?"

                      "Oh, sure."

                      "Why is your face turning all.........blue?"

                       "Oh that? I don't know, it just happens but I prefer not to talk about it."

                       "Ahh......ok."

                       "Heh...heh......"

                    "Hey Zane!" I say running up the steps.

                    "Hey Dawn......"

                    "Guess what?"

                    "What?"

                    "I found a cool new trick with my powers!"

                   "What?"

                   "Watch!"

                             I look around and make sure no one is in sight, and then focus on Zane. I light up with joy and I glow a noticeable yellow and a sparkling figure swirls around me, then I float up a bit, until I suddenly get tired and fall. Zane just about catches me and then we burst out laughing, well maybe not Zane but, he chuckled once or twice.

                  "Cool."

                  "Haha, I know! And I'm happy to share it with my bestie!"

                           Zane descends from the stair case and I smile. Then my expression changes as I see he is wearing a white outfit with a cross on it.
