Thread: Golden Sun(Zero and I)

There was a reason why Alice had exhausted Lucia just from being around, and she was about to demonstrate that reason. She blushed and looked away as the two bickered back and forth. As the conversation went on and on, she got even more embarrassed. This was not the first time Alice had made fun of them this way. Her and Cesare were incredibly close, because they had known each other for so long. That and Cesare had a tendency to always be there for her, helping her out of trouble. The last time that he did, she had gotten herself lost in a mine for nearly an entire day. But he found her first before any of the villagers, while she was crying and exhausted from being in there all day. Not to mention the vermin weren't exactly friendly. She had heard how determined and worried he had been when all the while she was lost, even going so far as to separate himself from the search group despite the creatures that lurked in the darkness. However, with the help of the light emitting from his torch, the vermin did not come near. Ever since, Lucia did have a bit of a crush on Cesare. That is what made Alice's teasing so tormenting to her. Hearing her fellow villagers laugh at Alice and Cesare's banter just made it worse. Surely they had overheard the taller girls initial teasing. Ugh, this was just making Lucia want to sleep. When her skill with a bow was brought up, Lucia wondered if she could really use her skills to help protect the others. She had a very good eye, that much was true. Though she had never used archery to fight off anything before. Her thoughts were cut off when Alice came to her and explained why she had teased Cesare the way she did. At first her expression was unforgiving, the lids of her eyes half closed in the way that signaled how fed up she was. Then it slowly changed from annoyed to understanding, and she gave Alice a warm smile. Cesare did need to get back to some sense of normalcy after everything that happened. Though was it truly best to pretend like everything was okay when the loss was great for everyone? She looked up ahead and saw everyone standing outside a pile of boulders that were blocking the road. She quickly jogged up ahead, seeing an eerie light creeping through the cracks of the rock. Joining her parents, she listened to the exchange of words going on between Senne and the people on the other side of the debris. And then she heard them ask those who could see what they were doing to help. She could see it, so she started to walk forward. Before she did, though, she felt a hand on her shoulder. Lucia, why are you walking without your brace and crutches? Your leg was hurt pretty badly...you can't help them. Lucia turned and saw her mother and father staring at her with a concerned look on their faces. They were worried about their little girl. Mom...Dad...I can help them. I...can't explain things right now, but I can help them. My leg is fine now, and after I help them I'm going to help the rest of the injured people in the village if I can... With that, Lucia joined Alice and the others who were gathering at the rocks. She then watched Alice summon what seemed like a large hand made from the same light she had used to heal her leg and move the rocks that way. Lucia followed suite, since she had performed the feat before she could do it again. The others were getting worn out, and so was Lucia. But she couldn't stop. Suddenly, she saw someone from the corner of her eye approach the debris next to her. He was tall, and had long, silver hair. She knew exactly who he was as soon. Fang...you too? She asked the man wrapped up in a long dark cloak. Alice and her family may have been the newest members of the village, but Fang was a complete outsider who rarely ever socialized with anyone. No one had trusted him, in fact they had rarely seen him unless he needed to purchase food. He lived just on the outside of town, and had turned a cave into a place he could live. Lucia had been there once. Just because she felt like he needed a friend. He had been nice to her, but not once did he ever make the effort to talk about himself. He was definitely a strange guy, though even he needed to find another home after that disaster. Did he get strange powers too? He lifted up a single hand, not bothering to touch the rock, and a large fist was made. It then rocketed into the pile, hitting the rubble with significant force, enough to crumble the smaller rocks completely. This loosened the boulder, and then he once again summoned another hand, grabbing the large boulder and pulling it effortlessly to the side now that it wasn't quite as wedged in there. Lucia and the other villagers watched in shock as he did that without even touching. There was now enough space for the villagers to squeeze through. Fang then went ahead, moving passed the people who had been on the other side without a word. Wait! Fang! Lucia began, though he did not stop. He seemed different...there was no way he had just discovered this odd power. He knew how to use it, and he was strong. The other villagers of Knox began to murmur and speculate on what had just happened. They seemed confused, as they couldn't see what had just occurred.
