Chapter One: Fai Seirvita
~“Lost and broken, that’s how he was found, but what they found, wasn’t just a broken person, the person was smiling weakly, he was given the greatest gift,
the moon was finally out and the fireflies lighting the dark grass,
That’s how it should be,
He received the greatest gift,
Something that could shatter the chains that bond him to the earth,
His Father had given him wings,
Now he could go home,”~

Rain fell to the ground making a rhythmic sound against the trees and grass. Walking though the forest with only the trees to shield it from the rain was a young man about the age of 17. The rain fell into the black mane and made it stick to his skin. Blue green eyes shun with determination underneath the wet hair. His navy blue hooded sweat shirt stuck to his thin frame and his jeans just mad it to the bottom of his heel. The only thing that made him different besides living alone in the forest was…in replacement of his human ears, he had sleek black cat ears. This odd person’s name? Well his name was Fai Seirvita. People have asked Fai about his ears so many times he lost count, and his answer was always the same.
“Does it matter? I know curiosity gets the best of everyone but…sometimes its best not to here the story…”
Still despite his mysterious life Fai was pretty well-known not just for his ears but how he treats people. He treats everyone equally, no matter who they are or what mood he’s in. He’ll say hello and goodbye being polite and mostly spoke in ‘riddles’ if he even talked that day. If anyone tried to talk to him normally he’ll just say one thing and leave to get home or to his class. One day a girl even asked him out but his reply scared everyone.
“I wont be around long like other people will be, so it’s best if you stay away…so you don’t go though what I have to.”
After that Fai was called the ‘Black Cat’ since it seemed that nothing but darkness followed him now. Ever since his father died, and his mother abandoning him years before his father’s death. Still, Fai had the biggest secret, the darkest trouble, Fai wasn’t just someone who spoke in riddles. It’s the only thing he could do so no one would get caught, it was the only way he could make people safe. From what? Not only his true self but from the people he worked for. The Forgotten, they where a group of people who had nothing to lose and was usually sent off to do missions that where life threatening. If anyone came to be involved they would surly end up dead. After all his father tried to stop Fai’s fate, but died trying. Fai’s worst memory, Fai’s worst Secret…he killed his father. The only way Fai remembered that his father was real, was the memories and pictures. Every time he saw his father’s smiling face and his warm cerulean blue eyes behind the almost square shaped glasses he wished that it was him that died, rather then his father. If only he stopped everything and got between his father and the crimson rain blade. Then his father would still be here, the doctor of this small town, and saving people’s lives and making his patients happy to see him at the market. Tears formed in Fai’s eyes but it mixed with the rain that beat so harshly on him. He soon broke into a run hoping to get home hoping to see his father’s smiling face welcoming him back home. He ran onto the porch and out of the rain, he turned and spotted a hawk sitting near the door. A smile formed on his face, it was the same hawk that his father and himself had saved. It was basically a rare kind, it was completely white except for its legs and eyes both where black.
“Hello Malarkey…” said Fai quietly as he opened the door. How they came up with that name they never knew. The hawk flew in and turned on the light switch easily, he never knew how the bird learned such a trick. Fai closed the door and looked up to find a note. Sighing he grabbed the paper and ripped it from the door. After reading it Fai closed his eyes and gave a weak smile.
“Tonight, is going to be a long night.”
