Chapter 1 – First Encounter

A stunning boy of thirteen just entered a small chapel not far from their estate. He was just in passing when he heard the most angelic sound he had ever heard and went inside.

Enter Christopher William Andrew Orson Roland XIII… a.k.a. Chris--------- POV

The mass was already ending and once again I heard that same melodious voice ringing in my ears. I found the source of the heavenly voice- the choir. It was comprised of many different members… but somehow I can't peel my eyes off a certain one. After the mass ended there was a small crowd forming around the choir members, but the center of attention was the young boy I was admiring from a distance. They were bombarding him with flattering comments, but the humble boy just smiled and thanked them.

The other choir members were green with envy and kept throwing jealous looks at the boy. I faintly sensed the overflowing Mara inside one of them but… as fast as I noticed it, the feeling of Mara faded away. After the small crowd had dispersed, he was left alone to keep the song pieces and microphone stands the choir used. Although it was the responsibility of the whole group, they left it all to him. I walked over and asked

"Do you need any help?"

He gave me a warm smile and nodded. I took off my over coat thing and hung it on a nearby chair and the two of us started to keep the choir things. After ten or so minutes the two of us were panting a little, exhausted from carrying the items to and fro from the chapel to the stock room. I stood up and said

"Since we haven't introduced ourselves first… I'll start… My name is Christopher William Andrew Orson Roland XIII or simply Chris…"

I held out my hand and he shook it.

"I am Samuel… nice to meet you…"

"The pleasure's all mine Samuel…? Wait, can you please tell me your last name?"

A look of grief suddenly passed over his angelic features, but as quick as it came it was gone.

"I… have none…"

"Why is that?"

A look of pain suddenly flashed on his face… and I knew that this wasn't a topic to be discussed.

"I'm sorry…" I apologized

"It's okay…"

Silence fell between the two, broken by somebody shouting.

"Samuel! Samuel! Sam- oh there you are!"

Samuel and I looked at the approaching figure. He looked really familiar. He had short wavy blonde hair and bluish green eyes. Then it hit me… he looked just like Samuel!

"Hey, Remiel!"

Samuel noticed the bewildered look on my face and chuckled lightly.

"Chris, meet my twin brother, Remiel!"

Twins? Samuel has a twin!

I stood up quickly and apologized profusely for my ignorance.

"No need to apologize now! My name is Remiel!"

He held out his hand and I shook it.

"Christopher Roland XIII…"

Remiel turned to his brother and said

"Head Mistress wants us in her office… She asked me to go look for you."

"Oh okay…" he answered.

"umm… Samuel, do you have any plans for tomorrow?" I asked, praying silently that he doesn't.

"No. Why?"

"… do you want to hang out at my place…?"

"Sure!" Samuel answered, carefully hiding the enthusiasm in his voice.

"Okay. I'll meet you here at 10:30…"

"See you tomorrow!"

With that he left with his brother. I picked up my over coat, smiling inwardly.

I can't wait for tomorrow…
