Chapter 2 - Father

I think I get it now. After living here for almost 2 years, I can speak a few Words and even say my first Sentence. I can even walk already. But, somehow I only realize this now.

I'm not on Earth. I didn't travel back in Time. I'm in another Universe, or at least on another Planet, a Planet where Physical Rules don't apply.

As I got older, I saw more people, but the Thing that made me realize that I'm on another Planet, or even Universe, is that People can fly. Not only that, but I even saw some of them use Magic. But not the Magic we know of, it's different Magic. Magic that has a red Aura. It almost looks like Blood Magic.

But how can this be? Don't tell me, I have reincarnated in a Fantasy World?

I don't know why, but somehow it's hard for me to think. Maybe it's because I'm barely 2 years old, but... I don't know.

The days seem to be passing slower and slower, and as I walk through the Hallways, I occasionally see People walking or flying through the Hallway. They always greet me. It's almost like I'm a rich Girl. Somehow, it makes me happy.

As my teeth start to grow, I realize something, a few things, to be exact. Two of my teeth seem to be sharper and longer than the other ones. I don't know what the reason for this is, but there must be one.

I think and think, over and over again. But I come to one conclusion, I have no Parents.

I have never seen or talked to my Parents, only Servants. Either they are dead or unloving. And I hope it's not the latter.

I walk along the Hallway again, suddenly I bump against someone, that someone is so tall, that my whole Body only reaches up to his Kneecap. I look up. He looks menacingly. But as I try to run away, he stops me, he kneels down and pats my Head while smiling. It feels nice and comforting. Almost... fatherly. It can't be!

I try to speak, but I can only utter a single word.

"Father?"

He looks at me happily while nodding.

Why, why now? And why this randomly? After almost three years, he dares to pat my Head and smile at me?

This is the first time I even see you! And what happened to my Mother? Is she dead? Is she the same as you?

But I don't dare to say that. Instead I go against my Thoughts and hug his Leg.

"Daddy! Daddy!" I say loudly and in a cheerful tone, while jumping up and down.

Suddenly he picks be up and carries me on his Arms. He hasn't said a single word till now.

He took me to a Training Area...

With an expression of Shock, I look at him.

Really? That is where you carry me?

But I don't dare say these words, for I am way too fearful of him.

He puts me down and says his first words to me.

"Go ahead, try it." He says in a fatherly tone.

Try what? What should I try?

I look at the direction where he is looking.

I see an empty Training Dummy.

Should I attack it? But how? I'm not even three years old! How am I supposed to attack it!

Tell me! HOW?!?

WOOSH ---- BANG 

Suddenly the Training dummy vanished. I look at my hands, where a lingering aura is still visible. Have I done that? But how?

Suddenly I remember. The Sound I heard when I first came to this world. It was probably the Guards training. But if I can already use the Magic that Guards need to train for, then... HOW STRONG AM I?!?

I look at my Dad. He only smiles proudly. He kneels down and pats my Head.

"Good work my Child, I am proud of you." He talks in a fatherly, but also proud tone.

Somehow I'm not angry, but happy. I'm happy that my Father praised me.

But why did he decide to randomly take me here? I mean I only stumbled into him.

"Why? Why take me here?" I ask him, barely forming a sentence.

"Why, you ask? Because I want you to see it, the Power your Mother had. The Power your Mother and I left you with. Before we died."

"Wait! What you mean?" I turn around, but he is gone. As if he never was there.

But how? He was there as a physical being, it can't all have been an Illusion.

Not being able to think further, because of my still developing Body, I walk away, confused.

[Ominous Person 1] "Seems like it worked. She finally realized what her Powers are. Soon we can begin with the real test."

[Ominous Person 2] "What do you mean? Isn't she still too young for that? She isn't even Three and doesn't even know how to cast, just that she can cast."

[Ominous Person 1] "It doesn't matter, our Lord wants us to do it as fast as possible, and this is the quickest way."

[Ominous Person 2] "I can't argue against that."
