Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 - Awaken from a Dream

The skyline breaks as the massive demon breaches the wall bringing down cobblestone down on the soldiers below. I look up as the demon stares down at me and the rest of the guards. Pulling my muscles taut I grip my sword with both hands running forward with my fellow guards shouting, "Onwards, Defend the City!" The guards around me crash violently into the small demons breaking a hole in their ranks leading to the massive demon behind. My sword racks the stones beneath my feet as I run my sword sparking against the cobblestone as I swing it at the massive demon's side. The moment the sword starts to near the demon it scoffs and slaps my sword downward, slamming it against the floor, snapping the blade easily. The demon roars as it reaches for me with its massive hand, "Pathetic Mortal, you can do nothing!" Its massive hand crashes into me, skipping me across the ground and bouncing off a couple of buildings...

I groan heavily as my broken bones shift as I roll slightly to the side. Pain lancing through my body, i push myself up with my right arm into a sitting position as I take stock of my bodies full condition. Looking down I see one of my legs broken with shards of bone sticking out here and there. I nod numbly as I look to my left leg that is missing from what looks to be the knee down. I try to move my left arm and I could swear I felt the entire thing... but as I turn my head I see nothing in its place... frowning my hearing starts to come back slowly as yells, screams, and roars echo out in the distance of the battlefield... I look up at the sky and try to keep my thoughts coherent. The orange reddish hue that bathes the battlefield was beautiful in my opinion. I turn my head as something in the sky gives off a low shine my frown deepens as I recognize the object as a javelin. It slams into the dead center of my broken ribcage nailing me to the ground thoroughly the darkness starts creeping in around my vision... its tendrils slowly encroaching... a soft whisper echoes from behind my ear, "Rest now... your time... is done..." my eyelids close as the last word falls... and the darkness consumes me.

"Wake up, Nihr!" Someone shouts right next to me. I slowly open my eyes turning to look at the annoyance. Two twin tails of red flip past my sight as the girl in question stares at me. Her name is Niona Floris, standing at around five foot five inches she has a lithe body and cute petite face with emerald green eyes and a small nose, her personality of a fireball matches her outward energetic appearance and can probably beat down a monster with nothing but her fists. Though that last part is a given since she has beaten down most of the people in our school rankings coming in at Rank S4. She also happens to be my sister. I roll my eyes as she keeps the glare on me and finally after a few solid minutes a voice calls out, "Niona Floris!" Niona starts to shake as she turns to the voice that called out to her. It was our homeroom teacher Elise Floris.. and as the striking resemblance between the two is readily apparent with their red hair and soft emerald eyes she is Niona's Mother. While The bodily differences were apparent between Niona's lithe body and Elise's body exudes a full mature womans charm even in her teaching attire. Elise Floris looked at Niona and me for a moment and said, "Take your seat." Pointing to a chair to my right. Niona huffs as she turns and sits down grumpily as she eyes her mother. Elise looks at me with a soft smile as usual but I just turn my head and stare out the window causes a small pout on her face and Niona to look at me in slight anger but then shaking her head sadly. I stare into the distance at a singular tower dominating the center of our city..

My name is Nihr... pronounced as 'near' I am approximately sixteen years old in everyone else's eyes.. My real age however is complicated. And this is but one of the many lives I am living.
