The shadows. As we all know, one can hide and lure their prey, they hide among the darkest part of the world, one person who manifested shadows was the opposite, he protected the innocent from other shadows and defended their lives. One day, he was caught off guard and was wounded badly, he ran and defended himself with all his might, and finally lost them, so he went and took a rest, he sat down and leans on a big smooth boulder, as morning came, a girl was walking in the forest and saw him and as he wakes up, they met with such fateful encounter.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Unless your memories come back, you're living with me!" as Jax pointed his thumb towards himself.
"What!?" Alistor asked him as he was confused.
"You heard me, you are living with me until your memories come back," Jax said and sits on the chair.
"What if I have parents?" Alistor said to him.
"I'll do something about it, but for now you need to rest, you don't want to bleed your head off right?" Jax said as he touches the doorknob and looks at him.
"All right" Alistor complied.
"Good, I'll see you in the morning then," Jax said and closed the door.
As morning came and Alistor woke up and as the birds tweeted outside the window as the sky was clear and blue, he went downstairs and saw two bodies that are seated in the living room and as he went down completely, he paused and saw Jax with a lady, he paused as he saw them talking and as Jax sips a cup of coffee, as Jax paused and he saw Alistor on the base of the stairs staring at them with a blank face.
"Oh hey Al, Glad your awake, how's your head doing?" Jax said as he looks at Alistor and the lady looked at him smiling.
"It's getting better and better, who is this?" Alistor looked at the lady back at her, and Alistor thought "She looks like Jax's age (20's)"
The woman had a white dress and a straw hat, as the long black hair was dancing in the wind, she stood up and said "You must be Alistor, Pleasure to meet you " as her hand reaches out to greet the young man and Alistor shook the beautiful lady's hand and smiled. She continued " I am Alexis Van Vondaghourd. I am from the Palace."
Alistor was quite shocked by what he had heard and said " The name's Alistor, I'm sorry but I can't quite remember my family name, please forgive me."
The Lady smiled at him and replied "That is quite alright, I heard a lot from Jax, he said that he found you on the ground with a bleeding head, and he took you here, do you remember the memories aside from your name?"
Alistor tried to remember but as he remembers his head hurt a little by doing it, and covers his right eye then he replied: "When I try to remember, my head hurts from doing it, I'll try to remember one by one."
"I see" Alexis replied and continued as he pats his head "You will remember soon enough, it just needs time"
As Jax finishes his tea and Clears his throat, he stands up and said "Well, all past behind us, Alexis, please tell Alistor why you are here." he taps Alexis's shoulder.
"Oh, You're right!" Alexis clears her throat and said, "Alistor, I, Alexis Van Vondaghourd, welcome you to the Deseon Kingdom, as the princess of the palace and Air to the throne, I register you to the Academy of Magic and Training of Deseon kingdom."
Alistor was lost for words and had a confused expression, he said "Wait....Princess??!...Kingdom?!...Academy??!!" as his eyes became all swirly of all the things the princess said.
[Few Hours Earlier]
As the Princess Knocks on the door on the early day, Jax opened and let her in and said "Hello, princess, Glad you came by today. Can I serve you anything?"
"It's quite alright, so, why did you call me this early of the day?" Alexis said and sat down a comfy chair and Jax sat across her.
"I found this boy in the middle of the road last night, as you know, the weather was terrible, I needed strong light magic to light up the road..." As Jax continued on what happened to Alistor, he tries to convince the princess to let Alistor join the Academy. "I tell you, that this boy has a unique magical ability."
"Oh, how unique?" Alexis said and She was quite interested.
Jax leaned forward and looked left and right then whispered "Black Flame"
The princess had a shocked face and was impressed at the same time and said "We don't even know where this boy came from, or he may be a spy from the other kingdom, how much do you trust this strange boy in just a night?"
"He is not strange, he is gifted. And I will tell you this, he might even change the future of Deseon kingdom, I feel that there might be something huge coming to this kingdom." Jax replied to Alexis with a serious face and continued "Please, for old times sake."
Alexis looked at him with desperation on his face and replied "Let me think for a bit and I will give you my answer."
"Great! Come back when you have your answer." And as he opens the door, Alexis gave him an answer.
"Here's your answer..." Alexis said while she stands.
"Well, that was quick." Jax then closed the door again and stand across her.
"If anything goes wrong, if he kills or steals or does something stupid, I will put all the blame on you." Alexis points on his chest and she sighed as she said "If your gut said that he might change the outcome of the future, then I'll see to it that he will be registered to the academy."
Jax happily kneeled in front of her and said "Thank you princess for this help."
As Alexis touches his shoulders, she said "It's fine, now we are equal."
And So, Alistor was registered in the Magic Academy for training.
