Xia-Xiang... I know them all very well. You see I grew up with them all as a little girl. We lived in the same nation just on completely different sides of the map. However we were all great friends. We would get together every few days to just have a good time. Music, dancing, laughter... Oh the memories! I remember one boy who was actually quite timid initially but as he grew, I saw great potential in him. Every Friday we'd meet at the stream gathering water to bring back in preparation for the gathering the following few days. We'd sit and talk about how excited we were about all the fun we'd have in the up coming festival -chuckles-. Sadly that all came to an end one crisp Friday morning when I went to the lake very anxious to see my friend, and he was nowhere to be found, That pretty much ruined my morning, that is, until I found out what truly happened the following day. That ruined my life... It turns out that he fled, not only his family, but the entire nation. It was not known when or even how he left, so it must have been mid moon. It was truly a shame too. There was so much power within him, and not just physical power but mental power as well. All he had to do was acknowledge it and use it. Such a power, such a gift... gone to waste because of fear. Only if he saw in himself what I saw in him, he could have gone so far... Years later, we were doing our normal festival preparations. I obviously was no longer in charge of water. I had much bigger responsibilities to do such as prepare food and deserts. I was just finishing the crust for my special apple pie when we heard some thunder yet, there was no clouds in sight. So, naturally we presumed there was some type of work taking place. This was not unusual so nothing was thought of it. However, then we heard the horn from the watch tower. Wewere under attack! We all rushed into the safe hold after we received the word to do so. All the men took arms and even some of the women. I can understand why.What woman would want to leave the love of their life out on the battle field while they sit anxiously waiting for them?Not I that's for sure. I just wish my man was here? Here to defend me.Here to... Not be afraid. The battle lasted long and it did not look too promising.Dragons may be the fiercest thing in the wild but they sure aren't the smartest.They didn't even see the safe hold so none of us were injured in the slightest. However we had to watch our loved ones get massacred and destroyed before our very eyes, watching one by one as they fall to the ground,some dying quickly, some in agonizing pain. But then in the distance we saw a man riding a horse coming towards Han. We wondered who would be so brave as to challenge an entire heard of Dragons all on his own. Wait... Could it be? No. Never.Hewouldn't come back... But it was!He came back. But how did he receive word? There was a wounded man riding behind him I believed that it was Newhook. I remember now when the general saw it was a losing battle he decided to look for help and he has returned with someone that I thought I lost forever... Could it be fate? Are we meant to be together? Must be... A few moments later the battle was victorious. Their entire heard was destroyed with the slightest effort of SubChess, even though I still find it hard to believe. He returned and I was overwhelmed with joy. I got out of the safe hold and went to him. I didnt even know if he would recognize me but he surely did. That is how we were reunited.He took his rightful place as the Xia-Xiang Lord and I took my place at his side, forever and ever till death to us part. Genica Lady of Xia Xiang |
