Hey, I've got a new fanfiction for you mage lovers! I hope the first chapter is enough for you until the next chapter! I do not own the terms Black and White Mages, but I made up the characters (if any of that is not confusing?)
Enjoy...
A young girl was running through a field full of sunflowers, giggling. It was a hot summer's day, with a light breeze in the air. The girl was wearing a white robe with a red, triangular lining. The girl had her hood up, despite the hot weather. She wore a blue crystal around her neck.
"Catalina!" A voice echoed through the field. The young girl turned around to find a woman running towards her. The woman wore the same robes as Catalina and had a blue crystal around her neck as well. "Catalina, I told you not to go this far out." The woman took Catalina's hand.
"But why Lisa?" Catalina moaned.
"Because we can only go this far Catalina. You may not understand this now, but you will when you're older." Lisa replied. Lisa was about to drag Catalina back to the village where they lived, but something caught her eye. Is that a…?
A tall, yellow, pointy hat was seen moving among the sunflowers. The hat seemed to be coming closer. "Nina, are you coming or not?" It was just two Black Mages wondering about the field.
The Black Mages wore yellow, tall, pointy hats which usually covered the Mages' face. Although these children did not have their faces covered. They wore a blue cloak down their waists and trousers with which were puffed up at the end. The trousers had stripes on them. One colour was green and the next colour was just white. Both of the Black Mages had a yellow crystal around their neck.
Lisa's face was full of fear. "Catalina, we must go now." Lisa grabbed Catalina's arm and dragged her in the other direction away from the black mages.
"I'm coming Neo, stop being so impatient." A girl appeared along with the young boy. "Why are we here anyway?"
"Because I like it out here. There's no one around, so it's safe."
"But you just don't know Neo, anyone could be here." Nina tried to change Neo's mind or possibly scare him. "Wait!"
Neo stopped walking and turned around and faced his older twin sister. "What?"
"We're not allowed past where you're standing." Nina folded her arms.
"I don't get it. What's so different from these White Mages? They don't look that bad." Neo said crossly.
"Neo, they have different teachings from us. They go against everything we do." Nina scolded him.
"But-but-"
"No 'buts' Neo. Come on, we have to get back to our village."
"…No." Neo stayed glued to where he was standing. He folded his arms.
"Excuse me?" Nina said furiously.
"No, I won't go back. I won't go back yet."
"Neo, I'm your older sister and if you don't-" Nina stopped in the middle of her sentence and stared at something behind Neo. Neo turned around to find a White Mage standing looking at Nina and Neo. She was standing only a few meters from where Neo was standing; an invisible line in which Neo and Nina weren't allowed.
"Um, hello." It was Catalina. She spoke in a soft tone.
"Hello, what's your name?" Neo replied back in a friendly tone.
"I'm Catalina. And you are?"
"I'm Neo and that's my sister Nina." Neo pointed to his sister.
"Neo, what are you doing?" Nina whispered – if not mouthed to Neo.
"Pleased to make your acquaintances. You are very lucky to have a sister Neo; unfortunately I have no siblings…" Catalina said sadly.
"Well, I don't know if you would like my sister." Neo chuckled.
"Hey!" Nina had her hands on her hips, absolutely furious.
Catalina giggled. She looked closely at the Black Mages. "You have faces?"
"Of course we have faces, the gods gave us faces didn't they?" Nina said offended.
"Nina…" Neo tried to calm her down. "I think you meant that our faces weren't covered?" Neo corrected Catalina.
"Oh yes! Sorry, when I was little, I always thought that Black Mages had no faces."
"It's perfectly fine Catalina."
A voice was heard in the distance. It became louder, meaning the voice was near by.
"Oh, that must be Lisa. She's probably looking for me." Catalina smiled.
"Um, who's Lisa?" Neo enquired.
"Oh, she's my aunt. She's my guardian, since my mother died when I was little. Lisa takes care of me when my father is busy. I really have to go now, but I'll see you again, ok?"
"That's no problem Catalina. I hope to see you again." Neo took a bow – which meant farewell.
Nina scoffed and turned around and walked away, not bothering to bid farewell to Neo's new friend.
"Don't mind Nina, she's just jealous." Neo made his last moment and turned and ran off to catch up with Nina.
"Catalina!" Lisa ran towards Catalina, panting. "Don't run off like that you know that scares me." She panted.
"I'm sorry Lisa; I was just talking to someone."
Lisa looked at Catalina with a concerned look on her face. "Who were you talking to Catalina?"
"Oh, just the Black Mages." Catalina said, walking off in the direction of their village. Catalina didn't seem to think that talking to the Black Mages was no big deal.
"Catalina, you know we're not allowed to have anything to do with them." Lisa said sternly.
"But Lisa, they're not like that! Well at least one of them isn't." Catalina turned around and faced Lisa, arguing with her.
"Catalina, under no circumstances do I want you to see them again. Your father wouldn't agree to this if he found out you had anything to do with them!" Lisa snapped at Catalina.
"I'm sorry," tears started to appear in Catalina's eyes. "I didn't mean to…"
"Look, I'm sorry Catalina. We just don't have anything to do with them because they're dangerous. You may not see it, but we know what makes them dangerous." Lisa bent down to wipe away her tears. "Let's go home, your father must be worried about you."
All Catalina did was nod. Lisa and Catalina walked off in the direction of their village. Catalina looked back at where she and the boy stood and talked. I hope I see you again… she thought hopefully. I will see you again…
