The little girl ran down the halls of the temple. She was a small girl maybe around 5 years old, She wore a black training uniform with red lacing similar to a robe. Her hair was Short not even reaching her shoulders and was a Dark black that seemed to shine purple in the sunlight.

               Why was she running? Was there danger approaching? no. it just a simple game of hide and seek. She took a left turn and came to an outside hall filled with pillars.

                "Maybe Cylo won't find me if I hide behind one of these." she said to herself as she took towards the pillar.

                 But as she approached it something caught her attention. There was a boy in the feild of the temple sitting underneath the ancient willow tree. She stood at the edge of the feild near a pillar watching the boy. He was someone she had never seen before. Why was he hear? she thought to her self.

                 "Staring at someone isn't polite Lady Norina." She turned around to see two figures, one was a small boy who looked to be the same age as her wearing a dark blue training robe, he had short White hair but his bangs hanged down in front of his right eye. The older man had an Identical bangs to the boy but the back of his hair was tied into a tail.

                "Head monk! What are you doing here?" Norina asked.

                "Well I received a few complaints about children running through the halls and Naturally I figured it was you and Cylo here, So I came to discipline you." Said the Monk.

               "uhhh. Im sorry!" Norina bowed her head towards him.

              "Well I guess I can forgive you this time." he said.

              "Head monk?" Norina said. "What is it Lady Norina?"

             "There is a boy in the training feild beneath the willow tree."

             "hmmm." The monk looked into the distance at the boy.

             "I've never seen that boy either Fath- I mean Head Monk." Cylo said.

            "Well I guess now is as good as any lets go." The Monk said as he walked toward the boy motioning the two children to follow him.

            "Having a Pleasant Siesta i see?" The monk said to the boy

            The boy opened his eyes slowly, waiting for his eyes to adjust to see the Three figures that stood infront of him. The boy had spiky black hair like a bad case of bed head. The clothes he wore were similar to hers except the black was matched with Blue patterned lacing. He stood up taking a look at the two other children beside the monk He was older than the two of them based on his looks and height maybe around 7 years old. He then turned his attention to the Head Monk.

          "ahh sorry gramps we got in pretty late last night and I wasn't able to get much sleep. So I thought I'd take a nice nap hear." The boy laughed.

           Norina in an irritated fit walked up to the boy punching him and knocking him down. "You don't just take naps here! This is the sacred Travelling willow used by The Knight of the Willow. It's stood here for thousands of years and here you are taking a Nap on it."

           "Well if it's been here for thousands of years then its not much of a traveling willow is it?" The boy said.

           Norina seemed to get irritated again at the boys comment raising her fist before the Head Monk called to them. "Norina put down your fist." she did so reluctantly.

            "Who is this boy Head Monk." Cylo asked. "And why is a rude guy like him here." Norina continued.

             The head monk walked and stood beside the boy to present him to the children.

              "This boy is Tai, He was an Orphan from the Eastern Kingdom of Soluna and just like you two he is a candidate to inherit the protective Spirit of will."

               "hmmm." Norina looked at him with a suspicious face. "or maybe he's here to steal it!"

               "It's impossible for one to steal the Spirit of Will. The Spirit chooses who will weild it, if a stranger comes and is able to inherit the spirit then that is just the will of the gods." Cylo said.

               "Maybe if you payed more attention to studies you would know this." 

               "Shut your mouth Cylo." Norina said. "Wow such vulgar language coming from the princess of Soluna." Cylo retorted.

               "Whoa princess!?" Tai exclaimed. "Yes this immature girl here is Princess Norina second in line for the throne of the Eastern Kingdom of Soluna." Cylo spoke to him.

               Norina looked at Tai who had a surprised look on his face. With a grin on her face the spoke. "Surprised are you? I guess thats to be expected it's not often one is in the presence of a beautiful princess such as myself."

               "Well yeah i'm surprised! I thought you were a boy this whole time- ughhhh." Norina gave him another punch to the stomach as he finished the sentence.

               "Alright kids no more fighting among each other." The head monk said standing between the two. "According to the calendar the Spirit will awaken in about a month or so, and you three have much studying to do so let's go."

                The three of them follow the Monk inside the temple. Tai, Norina, and Cylo children who's lives would soon change as the coming awakening approached.
