People say that it's fate and that the meeting was magical, and amazement is the first emotion you feel when you see someone who's fated to meet you. The same couldn't be said for Lucy, because her first encounter wasn't pleasant or magical of any sort but she was certainly amazed.
It happened when she was eleven, that she first saw him. He was dressed in black from head to toe, gently carrying an old woman's silhouette from the dead body below. He kissed her forehead,as if to say farewell and she shimmered and vanished into dust. Lucy couldn't understand what was happening at that time and soon later she forgot his face.
She saw him again and again from here and there but as always afterwards she somehow forgot. Sometimes he would appear in a car accident, sometimes near the hospital.
But their 7th encounter was when she would finally remember him, forever leaving a memory that she would never be able to forget.
