Ashronian History

3rd person POV

As Nadia walked out of her small apartment she looked at the time realizing it was already 1:47 pm " Oh shoot I only have 13 minutes." She thought to herself as she quickly ran down the stairs and out of the building. She then rushed to the park to meet up with the mystery boy known as Ethan.

Nadia's POV

It would suck if this all turned out to be some sick prank, but I don't see why it would be I mean we both saw that memory of his, I saw him get emotional and his expression was just too genuine to be a joke plus there's just something about him that makes me feel like I should give him a chance to explain himself.

UGH what is wrong with me, I have been able to avoid people for 16 years so why am I feeling like this now. Maybe this was a mistake maybe I should leave while I still can. Just before I was about to leave sure enough I saw a tall brunet with blue eyes headed my way carrying a huge ancient-looking book.

But as he got closer I could tell that he looked almost worried about something as if he was carrying a huge burden on his shoulder. His expression instantly changed when he saw me he now seemed almost relieved. "You showed up, so does that mean you believe me?" he asked a little too hasty.

" Um, not so fast mister I'm gonna need more info about these "Ashronians" or whatever you call them before I decide whether or not I believe you. "Huh...typical," he said with an irritated tone. "Um, what's that supposed to mean?" I asked a little annoyed by his impatience. "I just mean that your a princess so it's only instinctive to act all bratty." He stated in a mocking tone.

" EXCUSE ME first of all I didn't even know I was a Princess till a few days ago second off you were the one who practically begged me to meet you here REMEMBER."

Out of nowhere, Ethan started laughing as a smirk grew on his face, while I had the most confused expression on my face. "What are you laughing at!?!" I asked now officially irritated. He then responded with confidence, " You just admitted that you are a princess...so you do believe me." He stated as if he caught me with my hand in the cookie jar or something.

I mean who does this guy think he is. I will admit one thing he is pretty confident not to mention sneaky too. I was interrupted by Ethan who finally stopped laughing he then stated," Ok sorry it's just nice to know that you don't think I'm crazy or something." " Well, I did at first," I stated as if by instinct.

"Oh ok...I'm sorry say what now?!?" Ethan stated just barely getting the last part of my sentence. "I'm kidding...well sort of," I stated, hoping he didn't catch the last part. "Oh great," Ethan sarcastically stated. "Anyways onto the reason that you're here." Ethan announced as he pulled the ancient book from underneath his arm that had two words with beautiful cursive on the cover of it, that reads "Ashronian History." We both took a seat at a nearby bench as he opened the book and began to explain, from the beginning, our culture and where I really come from.

" Ok, so you and I come from a planet called Ashron where the sky changed color based on its citizen's emotion and their animals were mixes of each other but other than that it was pretty much like earth the atmosphere was pretty much the same but our temperatures were different and our gravity was also different. Our gravity there was a lot stronger than the gravity here on earth, which means that you and I actually have the ability to fly if we really wanted to. Anyway, most Ashronians are born with some sort of ability from the moment they are born. When Ashronians are born our eyes glow a certain color or aura that will give the fortune tellers or witches the ability to see their future.

We Ashronians were also big on prophecies because each one came true and no matter how hard anyone tries to change it things would always turn out the way the prophecy states. This brings me to the next part, our planet has always been run through a monarchy.

Our latest and final King and Queen were King James and Queen Amelia and they had two twin Daughters the oldest Princess Lilith and the youngest Princess Nadia. it is a tradition for everyone in the royal family to be given a necklace exactly like yours except they are different colors for example king James has a necklace with 2 green and black beads.

While Queen Amelia had 2 purple and black beads and princess Lilith had 2 yellow and black beads and finally you princess Nadia has 2 blue and black beads on yours. It's a similar tradition to how each Ashronian is born with their name tattooed on their arm until it eventually fades when they turn two or in rare cases fade away once they unlock their power for the first time." " Wait so a baby is just born with a tattoo of their name, how is that even possible?" I asked now officially confused. "Well the parents of the child spell out the names of the baby in their head and all they have to do is see a witch and boom the baby is born with their name on their arm. And since it was required then all the babies had a name on their arm it was a way for them to not get lost I guess." He explained thoroughly as he kept turning pages. Eventually, we reached a certain page that showed the royal family tree with a picture of a baby that looked like the younger version of me.

"So that's what I looked like as a baby.", I stated under my breath. I also noticed 2 people on the sidelines one of the people was an old lady who looked like her job was to constantly be mad while another was a dark-skinned man with brown eyes who was holding a younger version of Queen Elizabeth.

"Who are they?" I asked as I pointed to the two. " The old grumpy looking one is the royal family's personal witch named Guivera and the one holding younger Queen Elizabeth is Berdos he is the royal family's personal servant and is the one who basically raised your mom.

He was her father figure after your grandfather died in battle against the Axellions." Ethan explained. "Axelli...who?" I asked confused. "Axellion." Ethan corrected.

"They are Ashronians worst enemy they are the reason our race is almost extinct." He stated with venom coursing through his tone. One of the axellions is soo powerful that they were able to defeat queen Amelia who was defending the planet alongside King James. Which means whoever caused the destruction of our planet is also the reason your mom and dad are dead" "How do you know that?" I asked confused. "Because it's the last thing written in this book before the handwriting becomes unreadable and eventually stops as if my parents were in a rush to finish writing." He explained with sorrow.

"Wait your parents?" I asked once more hoping things would start making more sense. "My parents were one of the Ashronian branches that are called historian's we have the ability to see flashes of the future not as clear as witches and its only five seconds into the future, unfortunately, however, we first have to be blessed by a witch before our power can work, and since I didn't have the opportunity of being blessed by a witch I won't ever get to use the same powers my parents did so ill just have to write things down after it happens. We basically are supposed to write every major event that happens in history and we pass the job on to our children when they're old enough to understand." He explained once more.

"Oh I get it soo the sloppy handwriting was his parents rushing to get to the pod and that's why they gave him the book because he's the last Ashronian historian in existence." I thought to myself before Ethan continued.

"Now that explained that I need to tell you the main reason your here. Not long after you and your sister were born Guivera discovered a new prophecy that you and your sister would eventually fight to the death. If she wins our universe will be lost and if you win you will be able to bring about peace and balance." He explained with a look of worry once again coming over him. "He's hiding something I know it, I can feel it." I thought to myself.

Ethan's POV

"Should I tell her that the prophecy says that there is a chance that she will be even worse than her sister?" I thought to myself but was interrupted by Nadia's question. "Wait...Wait why would I fight my sister to the death if you said she died alongside my parents." She asked with a confused expression.

"Well because if your alive that means the prophecy is true, meaning somehow your sister survived too. But the prophecy says that she is raised by Axellions which means she is nothing but a tyrant that destroys innocent lives for no reason at all. This is why you and I are going to train. So that when the time comes that she tries to destroy this planet you can defend it.

So the first thing is to teach you how to fly then we should..." I looked up to see that Nadia was on the verge of tears. "I'm sorry it's just my whole life I've been told I was nothing and now not only am I a princess but I have to kill the only relative I have left just to stop her from destroying my home.

It's just I don't think I can do it, it's too much for me to handle alone." She seemed soo upset I didn't know what else to do, so I followed my instincts and pulled her into a hug.

"It's going to be OK your not going to be alone in this because I'm going to help you through it," I told her as gently as possible. And just then I could feel her relax and hug me back as she replied, "Thank you." I don't know what it is about her and I know I've only known her for a few days but I feel almost as if I need to constantly protect her.

Of course, id never tells her that. I slowly pulled away from her as I explained to her, "Starting today we will start training at my house, ill just let my parents know and we will be on our way."

" Wait we cant practice flying at your house won't they find out about you?" Nadia asked worriedly. " Oh no my parents know everything about where I come from and what I can do, they read this book and didn't believe it till I started blasting up the living room at the age of 5. I'm just glad they didn't give me up after that." I explained to her with a smirk on my face.

3rd person POV

As Nadia was having her doubts about her training both her and Ethan were on their way to his house so that Nadia could learn how to fly. Once they reached Ethan's home Nadia hesitated as her eyes open with shock and her jaw was wide open it was huge compared to her crappy apartment. " Sorry, it might not reach your expectations, Your highness but it's better than nothing." He explained sarcastically.

"Please don't call me that," she stated a little annoyed by his teasing antics. "Ok fine whatever you say my lady" Ethan replied with his tongue out mockingly before he began to grab his key to his home out of his pocket. "Sigh... this is gonna be a long day." Nadia thought to herself as she followed Ethan inside his home.

As they walked into Ethan's home Ethan called out to his parents, "Mom Dad we're here!" He exclaimed from the front door as he began to take off his shoes at the front door along with Nadia who also began to take off her shoes. Right as she finished taking off her shoes 2 people came from the side to welcome their son home and to greet the newcomer into their home.

"Hello, you must be Nadia I'm Isabelle and this is my husband David." The pregnant lady with blonde hair and green eyes stated with joy as she pointed to her husband who was a Latino man who looked about 5"11. Before Nadia could properly greet Ethan's parents she was interrupted by a little boy who looked an almost copycat version of his mother with just a (slightly darker skin tone and brunette hair) running to hug Ethan.

"Etthhaann your home, can we play astronaut now please." the little boy asked excitedly. "Aww sorry, Kai but I promised my friend here I'd teach her how to learn how to fly, but I promise next time we will definitely play astronaut," Ethan stated gently.

Huh, so that's why he can be soo gentle he has to be for his little brother "Aww ok." the little boy named kai said acceptingly as he walked over to Nadia and exclaimed very adorably, "Your really pretty Nadia!"

"Aww thank you Kai arent you the little gentlemen you should give your big brother some lessons." She stated teasingly as Ethan begin to wink while giving his famous smirk. Before she could say anything else she was being dragged upstairs by Ethan but before she could be completely dragged up she yelled politely as she looked at Ethan's parents," It was nice to meet you guys and it was nice to meet you as well Kai."

"Nice to meet you too Nadia" David replied before he continued, " And leave the door open Ethan." "Yeah yeah," Ethan stated in a bored tone while Nadia couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed. She also started to realize that she didn't hesitate or become shy not once, she was confident the whole time and that was a big enough reason to make her smile.

Once they finally reached Ethan's room Nadia couldn't help but realize how neat and organized it was not to mention it was huge. His room was the size of her whole apartment it was unbelievable he had a desk filled with textbooks, a shelf filled with all kinds of books on each side of his room with a king-sized bed in the middle of it, and in front of it was a door slightly open to reveal a bathroom and on the left of the bed was a huge walk-in closet.

"Your family is really sweet," Nadia stated as she was enjoying the view from his room. "Thanks although they can be a little overprotective at times, but I love them more than anything" Ethan replied. " I can tell, I also noticed your mom is pregnant when is she due? if you don't mind me asking," Nadia stated.

" No worries ask me as many questions as you want and she's due in 4 months it's gonna be a little girl," Ethan stated with a gentle tone. "Oh, I bet you're excited," Nadia stated. "Yup but Kai is even more excited he goes on and on about how he's gonna play knights and princesses with her he may only be 6 but I swear he's growing up too fast," Ethan stated with worry in his voice.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Nadia asked. "It's just if we can't defeat your sister there's a high possibility that I could lose them, they are the only family I know I don't know what id do if something bad were to happen to them," Ethan stated as he sat on his bed with his head in his hands.

Nadia realizing how upset Ethan was kneeled down on his carpet in front of him and slowly but gently moved his hands from his face " I promise well win and I always keep my promises plus with you by my side what could go wrong." She explained with newfound confidence because she realized that even though she had just met this small family she felt the need to protect it as if it were her own.

Ethan now smiling replied, "Yeah...now shall we begin our first flying lesson."
