Reign Of The Blood King: Rain 1 "It starts with a scream"
_________________________________________________________________________________
Rain heard his own scream, it mixed with the cries of terror that filled his village. He dropped the basket of fruit he was carrying.
What.....
the only thing Rain could think of the scene in front of him. He couldn't quite understand why Knights would be attacking his peaceful little village. Rain didn't know much about Knights, the only knight he knew was the retired Eris. Coincidently her husband was a very powerful Mage, but they had moved away years ago. From what he had learned, by the emblem on their chest, there are two platoons of Knights from different kingdoms. Though he is in too much of a panic to notice, the only reason he really noticed was the fact that they attacked each other.
After standing there in shock for a while it sank in. He ran, faster then he had ever run before. But instead of away from the village and knights, he ran into it. He passed the baker that would give him bread but he didn't stop, for the baker had a sword in his chest, and had left the living long ago; Rain passed the Doctor that healed him once and the farmer that lived next door to him both of which were dead.
Bell! Bell! Bell! Bell! Bell! Bell!
Rain chanted the only name that mattered to him. His twin sister Bluebell, they were inseparable from birth. In fact, this was only the fourth time Bell didn't go with Rain to the forest. In what seemed to be hours, as he avoided the Knights. Rain finally made it back to his house. Nothing could be heard inside. Without the time to worry about it, he slammed the door open. He almost fainted right there. His father had been killed, in way of execution. A few meters in front of his father's corpse was His mother's. Rain didn't want to think how she died. After he finished throwing up. He dragged his feet a little to the small meat locker, the small locker was somewhat hidden. Rain slowly pulled the handle that opens the door. A click could be heard along with a squeaking. The door slid open, there curled up in a ball crying was Bluebell.
"Bell... It's me, its Rain."
Though still scared Bell slowly raised her head. Rain could see the tears in her eyes, how violently she shook.
"R-R-Rain... Rain!"
Bell leaped from the floor into Rain, she hugged him so hard he couldn't breathe. Rain hugged her back, they stayed there for only a few minutes when the screams from outside made Rain return to the nightmare.
"Put this on... Till we get outside."
Bell still didn't really know just how bad it was, but she listened to Rain and put the blindfold on. He walked Bell out of the house holding the urge to vomit again. However, he himself was shaking violently from everything he witnessed this day. Getting outside Rain removed Bell's blindfold. Now that he found Bell he just had to find their two friends, Feya, and Anreum, then get out of village and to safety. This would be hard, as they were only 11 this year.
