Hurtful play of fate

"This was unexpected."

"Too unexpected…"

Alex and Elio watched in shock as the creature that they had obtained from the special merchant for the young daughter of the viscount jumped passed the young girl and stood before her master.

The blue eyes of the creature locked with the red eyes of the person who now seemed to be in a daze.

He was looking down at the small mysterious beast that he knew little about, feeling as if he had known about this creature for an eternity.

And the creature was looking up at him as well, a calm expression present on her face.

She was looking up at him, and he was looking down at her. Which went on for a moment more, before both of them were covered in a storm of blue energy.

"Should we call it a coincidence, Alex, or simply fate?"
