15 TA: Elizabeth's runaway
The girl with a blonde hair and gold eyes was currently running on the hallway, Most people would think that she was running from bad guys but she was just a runaway.
Her name is Elizabeth Sapphire, She came from the Noble family called Sapphire. On the outside their family looks heartwarming but the inside tells otherwise. Elizabeth was born before her Father and Mother died, The current one that adopted her was her Father's Brother who was currently the head of the family.
In the family she was known as the Failed child of the Sapphire family, Only people inside the family would bully her while and when other people where in front of her they would pretend to be nice.
The Hypocrisy her family was Emitting shone brighter than the sun when they were alone, This made Elizabeth disgusted towards them but there was a man who She like. He was Arthur Sapphire her Grandfather, He was very kind towards her even without the public he would not treat her badly.
Even her Fake Father backed out, When Elizabeth and Arthur where Alone. Elizabeth would play with him and he was the first family she got.
Many of her family members got jealous towards her and bullied her more but she still smiled since she could stay with her grandfather.
Weeks before the Runaway,
"Grandfather what should we do today" Elizabeth said excitedly, Arthur looks at her and gently smiled. He was holding a tea cup and he slowly puts it on top of a small table.
"You will have to go towards France, Your father(Faked) is meeting a friend there" Arthur said, Elizabeth on the other hand was confused. What did her grandfather mean, Why would she go with them.
"Grandfather, I would like to not go with them" Elizabeth pout, Arthur just grinned and picks up the teacup that was on top of the dinner table.
A maid came behind him and took out a paper, The paper was very long and had a lot of words on it. Elizabeth was curious on what this paper was, She took it from the hand of the maid and reads it.
"That words listed there are the Properties and Money of my son and your Mother" Arthur Explained, Elizabeth was very shocked when she heard her grandfather speaking about her biological parents. In her home she never knew what her mother and father faces are, She knew that they were popular people but after searching for their picture for a long rime she didn't find anything about them.
Elizabeth reads the Paper and was at dazed, She runs back towards her room and was smiling. Arthur sighed when he saw Elizabeth acting that way, But seeing her smile he just smirked and laughed.
"Master, Are you sure about that" The Maid that was right next to Arthur asked, Arthur grin when he heard the maid and looks at her.
"It depends on her decision, Would she runaway or face her problem head on but either way I'm happy for her" Arthur smiled after giving his grin and looks at the sky remembering the past.
"My family is breaking itself apart, Elizabeth is my only hope. I hope you guard her well, Gloria. You were train to serve her and teach her the knowledge that was given to you" Arthur's expression slowly turn cold as he looks at the maid.
"As longs as it's Master's command" Gloria just bowed and said the cliche word that was heard from every maid that existed.
"When that time comes, I'm not your master anymore. You must serve her well" Arthur said as he stands up from his sit and went back towards the mansion.
"Understood" Gloria said while still bowing.

Elizabeth was on her room and preparing her things, She plans to runaway from her family and have a life on the outside world.
"I need many things such as Clothes and Survival things, Money is also important but Weapons is for safety so I will bring it" Elizabeth said while opening the suit case.
She knew that dresses wear not important and took the most flexible and easier to wear clothes. From the list she read, It was the money and the password from the accounts that was own by her real mother and father.
This plan was her only hope, She needs it to be more complex and have many backup plans as possible. With this words Elizabeth took out a notebook and lister all the things that could happen or will happen.

After that day. Elizabeth was making her plans for the Runaway. And it took a lot of time but it was now ready, Her family were supposed to go towards France with a Zeppelin.
Her family rides the Zeppelin and head towards Paris, The capital of France.
Elizabeth was currently at the window looking at the great view in front of her, She smiled on how peaceful it was but she felt someone's hand patting her shoulder.
"Uncle?" Elizabeth as she turns around, She saw her Uncle. The youngest of the three brothers, Her uncle never mention her father but he was still kind towards her. His name was Philip, An owner of a company that spans the entire Europe. He was incredibly rich and it was through his hard work.
"Your Father(Fake), Is meeting a friend I hope you would have manners." Philip said towards Elizabeth with a face that didn't care about anything. Elizabeth hearing him was silenced for a few seconds since she knew that her Runaway plan would cause chaos.
"Okay!" Elizabeth said while nodding, Philip was surprise on what his niece attitude was. He was expecting her to grumble and eventually agree but for her to agree this fast, There must be something going on.
"I hope you take your words seriously." Philip said and left Elizabeth alone, She continued on watching the view in the window and Time passes. The Zeppelin slowly arrives at the destination and landed on the Paris Zeppelin Hangar.
The hatch opens and the passengers left the zeppelin, After that another hatch opens. It was intended for VIPs and rich people if they want some privacy.
The Sapphire family finally left the Zeppelin and after the family, Elizabeth slowly makes her exit. She looks around excitedly and observe Paris at its very soul. She was very excited on her escape and what would happen during her new life.
"It's time for me to escape" Elizabeth thought as she grips her fist very hard.
————————————————————
On the night, A girl was running in a dark alleyway holding her backpack with her. She was panting heavily and was very tired. She looks around and decided to take a rest on a near dumpster.
"O god, I didn't know running away was this hard. They just know very fast how the hell did they do that" Elizabeth complain while panting, She manages to escape but it was found out almost immediately. She thought about it a little and arrives at an conclusion.
"Someone spied on me or Something spied on me" Elizabeth holds her chin and thought about the coincidence. As she was thinking about the runaway plan she felt they were many problems or many things that went against it.
Elizabeth was just sitting on a dumpster until she felt someone behind her, She didn't know how but she felt a chill that came out of nowhere. Elizabeth looks around and saw a dark figure coming out of the Alleyway.
"Hello There" Leo said while grinning, Elizabeth was shocked when she saw the boy or young man in front of her. He was holding a gun on his left arm while holding a knife with his right arm. She was scared a little bit when she saw Leo with his grinning.
"Oh, Sorry about that. I thought someone bad was heading this way due to the intense noise coming from your direction" Leo just smiled and his Gun or knife just disappeared like it didn't exist.
"Who are you?" Elizabeth said while holding her bag, she was taking out a pistol that she stole from her uncle. Philip was trained in the military but all Elizabeth had to do was Pretend to be cute while having a sad face. She just ask Philip to get her a food so that she could eat, And Philip complied. This made her laugh on how she manipulated Philip.
"Well, I'm just a stranger who was enjoying the view on the skies until someone interrupted it with her noisy feet. And what is a girl doing in a dark alleyway like this, You need to know that alleyway like this is dangerous. It may not be dangerous in Paris but in other cities you need to be careful" Leo said as he stands in front of her, He looks at her with a serious eyes but it changes into a carefree smile.
After a while Elizabeth still didn't speak, Leo thought of an Idea and smiled as he stares at Elizabeth.
"What is a Runaway kid doing here" Leo guessed Elizabeth's situation immediately, Elizabeth was shocked for the third time when she heard Leo guessing her situation.
"How did you know?" Elizabeth said while staring towards Leo.
"Your obvious, By how you act, your clothes, your manners, and your things" Leo pointed it out. Elizabeth was confuse on what Leo said, since she thought that this was normal for ordinary people.
"You think this is normal" Leo said as he pointed at her clothes and things, Elizabeth couldn't help but be angry when someone mock her intelligence for their convenience.
"You dare mock my intelligence" Elizabeth said at Leo.
"I'm not mocking you, Your pretty intelligent for a normal girl your age but you don't have wisdom and experience to back it up." Leo said while looking around uninterestingly, Elizabeth was hit by the hard truth. She didn't know anything about the world and just reads the books that explains it. She knew that without experience even if she could runaway her life maybe more worse than the family.
"You don't know anything about me" Elizabeth was angry as she just straight up denied what Leo said.
"I don't know anything about you but I could guess what the reason you runaway" Leo said while he smirks at Elizabeth. Elizabeth was feeling the anger for the first time, She didn't feel angry towards the her family that always bullied her but did this random Plebian made her feel this way. His mocking expression towards her is like an ant trying to have more intelligence than the humans.
"You're probably one of those people that says, Family sometimes makes mistake and I should return towards that Hypocrite of a family" Elizabeth spoke at Leo who was still smirking at her.
"When did I say that" Leo said as he spreads his arms.
"W-what" Elizabeth certainly didn't heard about Leo saying it but she just thought that he would be the same as those people.
"Why are you running away?" Leo asked.
"My family is a hypocrite on everyway" Elizabeth answered.
"Your whole family?"
"Ye-, No!! Not my whole family" Elizabeth quickly denied her answer.
"So you have a family inside that hypocrite family of yours, The why are you running away."
"B-because the family is hypo-"
"It's because you want to run away from the problem, Not the family. From what I can tell you don't even hate them, the only reason you want to run away is because you hate to solve the problem in front of you" Leo spoke before Elizabeth could tell her whole sentence.
"Then what do you want? Pretend that I was in a good family" Elizabeth face was full of sadness.
"Hehehe, When did I say that you had to pretend" Leo grin.
"What do you mean?" Elizabeth was curious on what Leo meant.
"Use the problem to make you stronger, It's simple as that. You are an intelligent person that has a good future and if you work hard enough you could get closer to the truth and avenge someone. You need to face your problems head on, No matter how much pain it could cause you. If you took the pain head on, You will be stronger tomorrow" Leo said as he points his finger at her.
"Bu-t how will I do that" Elizabeth said while stuttering, she was surprised on what Leo said.
"It's your life, I have no right to dictate you" Leo shakes his head.
He proceeds to walk out of the alleyway and left Elizabeth along but before he could leave he turns around and looks at Elizabeth's eyes.
"You are a girl right? What is the greatest gift a girl can get" Leo asked, Charlotte wouldn't even answer his question so this was a good opportunity since Elizabeth was a girl.
"W-what" Elizabeth was surprise when she heard the question.
"What is the greatest gift a girl can get?"
"My grandfather told me that, A greatest gift a girl can get is ordering her love one's for a day" Elizabeth answered Leo's question.
"Ordering me for a day, Alex would probably like it and isn't this a great opportunity. I could make this situation or gift in order to get closer to Alex" Leo thought, He smiled on how great his plan was.
"Thank you for the opinion, Little miss" Leo shakes his hand and was about to leave until Elizabeth ask a question.
"What's your name?"
"My name?, Leo Sinclair" Leo smiled and disappeared into the distance.
