——————————————————————————————–
Takeo and Kenji were brothers. Three years apart, they were very different, but the best of friends. They resided in Kerning City, and they were both thieves, each inheriting strange traits from their parents. Takeo, the older, quieter brother of the two, who was a real hit with the ladies, got the skill Dark Sight. And Kenji, the younger, loud and just-a-bit-crazy brother got Haste.
They were walking down one of Kerning City’s darker lanes…when they heard it. A muffled scream, further down the alley. The two boys sprinted down. Although still in their teens, they were regarded as some of the best thieves of their time. Then they stopped-and took in the scene before them.
A group of thieves were laying into a young man, and scrabbling upon the mesos spilling out of his pocket. Takeo drew his throwing stars from his pocket, and threw them at the man’s assailants. A couple went down, then sprang away, up the walls of the buildings surrounding them. At the same time Kenji slashed another of the men in the back, and he fell to the ground, not even making a sound.
The man got up, looked warily at the pair of boys and ran away. Takeo sighed. The man had nothing to fear. And that was when a girl behind him materialised out of mid-air!
She can use Dark Sight, just like my brother can thought Kenji, just as the girl behind his brother made to stab him in the back with dagger. But Takeo was no longer there. He was behind the girl and quickly thrust his star into her back! As she fell down limply, he caught her in his arms. And his breath caught in his throat.
She’s beautiful thought Takeo. He gazed into her face, her closed eyelids, her hair over her forehead and her shallow breathing each time he felt her chest rise and fall.
“We have to get her back home” said Takeo, glancing at Kenji, who was watching the mysterious girl, clearly thinking the same thing about the girl as his brother. read more
