A Light

I woke up and I somehow was in bed The last thing I remember is fighting off Hagon "Arcene..." I looked down and saw Nathaniel Sleeping I ruffled his hair maybe I should draw on his face that would be funny I tried getting out of the bed but when I did he woke up, what a bummer "Good morning Arcene" "Good morning, did you know that you look cute when you sleep" "W-wha never mind that"

I never gave him my gift "Nathaniel" "Ya, what is it" "I'm sorry" "Why are you apologizing" Tears started to flow down my face "Because of me you weren't able to enjoy your Birthday, it's all my fault all I do Is cause trouble for people even in previous life no one wanted anything to do with me I was just someone who always caused trouble for everyone" "Arcene, it is not your fault, and what do you mean about your previous life"

He came close to my face and started to wipe the tears away "I can remember everything from my previous life, I was an only child, there was this guy who would always talked to me but I know the teachers made him talk to me, My mother abused me, my father left us when I was five and, and I got into an accident and I died but when I woke up again I was here born again in a new world with really nice and caring people, I don't deserve to be here I should have just died and never been born again"

"Arcene! you shouldn't say things like that you have every right to be here, I will protect you from now on, and I won't ever leave you I promise" I was so shock to hear that so I smiled "Thank you" I got out of the bed and walked to my drawer I got out the book and the bracelet "I know I'm late but happy birthday" when I gave the Items to him he was really happy.

"Out off all the presents I got this one is the best, thank you Arcene" "Your Welcome, Oh and look we have matching Bracelets"

I put on my bracelet and showed it to him "Wow we do ok it has been decided Arcene will you become my mate" "Wha you want me to become your mate" "Yes, I really like you and I want to be with you forever so will you be my mate"

This is the first time anyone asked me that"Yes, I would love to" "I'm sorry we cant make it official right now I don't have a ring I will get one soon" "Thats okay lets pinky swear" Our pinky locked with each other and he said "I pinky swear to get you a ring but for now we are bound by this promise and our bracelets" we let go and Mother came in "Arcene, I don't know why but you seem to always get into a lot of trouble"

"Sorry I made you cry" "Come on breakfast is ready" Nathaniel and I followed behind Mother and waited for her to serve the food We both sat down and ate "Miss. Les'tier you make the best potato soup" "Really thank you" we finished eating and went outside to practice sword we have to wait till Mom leaves the kitchen before practicing magic she will stop us and then she will have an eye on us all day.

"Sorry I made you cry" "Come on breakfast is ready" Nathaniel and I followed behind Mother and waited for her to serve the food We both sat down and ate "Miss. Les'tier you make the best potato soup" "Really thank you" we finished eating and went outside to practice sword we have to wait till Mom leaves the kitchen before practicing magic she will stop us and then she will have an eye on us all day. "Arcene It is getting a little late I have to get going" "Okay I will see you tomorrow" "Y-ya see you" He ran home and I was left alone, it is boring not doing anything maybe I should go to Nathaniels house, but what if mom won't let me leave the house maybe I should just not ask.

I started practicing fire magic by Imagining how a fire would look like and how hot it should be I was able to conquer up a small flame. It was not hot. Just warm, maybe I should start practicing making it hotter, now that would be my first objective.

"Arcene time for dinner" "Okay mom I'll be right there" I went inside and sat down at the table "Where did Nathaniel go?" "He went home" "Oh well, will he be here tomorrow" 'I...don't know"

I finished eating and went to my room "After the proposal Nath made, did he regret his decisions. No! I can't think that way Nathaniel will never do that" Okay think Arcene, If you want to become a mage with Nathaniel then you have to focus on surpassing him.

I started with the small flame in my hand "If I keep it like this maybe it will start to get hotter" I started thinking about dragons and volcanos I don't know why but I guess I thought It will help with making the flame hotter which surprisingly did It has already been four hours since I got the flame out and It was able to get Hot, If I keep this up I will be able to use actual fire magic.

*The Next Day*

Nathaniel is not here yet. Maybe He has something to do I guess I'm on my own today "Mom Can I go play outside" "Okay honey but don't go into the forest" "I won't, I promise"

I went outside and grabbed my wooden sword I started Practicing my swords Skill until it got dark, and Nathaniel never came over "Arcene come inside" "Okay papa" When I got inside there was this man Sitting next to momma When he looked at me I couldn't help but feel cautious about him, then I felt the presence of someone behind me, that someone jumped at me from behind and I kicked it and saw that It was a boy about my age he looked nothing like Nathaniel.

"Who are you!" "Your daughter gets straight to the point just like her father" "Father this girl looks nothing like her parents and I thought you said she knew nothing about fighting"

"Momma...he...he almost hurt me" I put on a teary face "Noah control your son are you trying to hurt Arcene" "That girl was the one who hurt me old lady" "My mommy is not old!" "What a weak girl" "Shut your stupid retarded mouth before I get my sword and shove it down your throat"

"Who are you calling retarded the only retarded person I see here is you!" "You must really want to die" "How could you kill me your weak and younger than me, the older ones are always more powerful!" "Age has no meaning in power, my father is younger than yours but he's stronger than your father!" "MY father is Stronger than your father! How would you know who's stronger!" "I can feel their spiritual power and right now my father has more than yours! Hmp" I turned around and walked to my room.

I woke up the next day the house was really quiet today, I went to the wash room, I brusher my teeth and washed my face then I walked down the stairs The man and boy who were here yesterday was on our couches sleeping I wasn't shocked by it at all.

I walked past them and went outside to the back of the house where there was a small storage shed It was locked so I crawled thought the small hole on the side of the storage room when I crawled inside and there where a lot of books in it When I looked closer there were spell books.

"Why do we have spell books? And in here of all places?" "Arcene are you out here!" I heard Papa call for me so I crawled out the shed and ran to the front of the house "Don't worry Papa I'm here" "Arcene you shouldn't be outside early in the Morning come on Back inside" I walked in the house.

"Arcene can you wake up our guest" "Okay father" sheas why do I have to wake these people up they are not even people they Look like foxes and I don't like foxes I never liked foxes, I cleared my throat and yelled "Wake up, there is a babbitt on the loose"

They got up and both said "Where!" I started laughing I was laughing so hard "My, my stomach It hurts....hahahahaha...I can't take it...hahahahaha.....I think, I'm gonna die...hahahahaha" "Are you done now" "aaah...Man that was hilarious, okay, I'm finished"

I walked away with a big smile on my face "Good Morning Arcene" "Good Morning Momma" "You look happy" "Yep I just had a great laugh" "Are you warming up to our guest" "No but they have a great sense of humor"

I went to my room and changed into something warm I went into the kitchen and the foxes where sitting at the table I know I can't judge I mean I'm a wolf we are both under the same species I can't stand him.

"Arcene, last night we couldn't properly introduce our guest to you, this man is Noah an old friend of mine and this is his son Mason" "Mason Interestedly stupid name, Nice to meet you" "You should apologize miss perky" "Apologize for what" "The way you woke us up this morning and for yesterday" "First of all I'm you started it second maybe if you weren't sleeping then you would have known there was no babbitt in the living room" "You shouldn't yell there is a babbitt on the loose that a disrespect to us foxes. What if we told you there was a fleer on the loose" "I don't eat fleers they don't taste right and they aren't around this part of the forest"

"Arcene are you home" I heard Nathaniel's voice outside the house "Nath your here!" I ran to the door and opened it, I pounced on Nath and gave him a big hug "Why weren't you here yesterday" "I was helping my sis out so I couldn't come by and play" "I'm so glad you came today I don't know what I would be able to do without you I can't stand another second with Mason in There" "Mason?" "Just some boy who came here yesterday"

I got off of Nathaniel and we both went inside "Oh Nathaniel why are you here so early in the morning" "I woke up really early so I came by" "He's a cat" I looked over to Mason who called that out, Nath said in an annoyed voice "Yes I'm a cat what about it" "Oh nothing I just never thought a dog and a cat would be friends"

I growled and glared at Mason "Arcene It's okay, he just doesn't have any friends so he is just jealous" "Jealous, I'm not jealous of a dog and a Cat my life is way better than weaklings like the both of you" "Mason! that's Enough don't disrespect them remember where here for allies not enemies"

What are they even talking about. "Mom I'm going to my room to play with Nath" "Take Mason with you" why do I, I don't even like him "How old is he" " I just turned six a last month" "So...old, I'm only three, my birthday is next month"

"Arcene! Are you crazy why did you tell him when your birthday is now he is going to want to come" "I don't mind as long as I get to learn spells then I'm okay" "Your dense, you can't fully learn magic at your age, I don't even think you can use spells" "Of course I know Spells, I could Even prove it to you" "Then Let's have a duel, the loser will be the winners slave" "Deal".
