I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and sunlight shining on my face. I slowly stood up and went outside my room, leaving the door ajar.

I walked silently in the seemingly never-ending hallway until I stumbled upon the staircase. Descending down it, I was in the elegant living room. I went to the dining room where all the дети were waiting.

Sitting down at my designated seat, we started eating. The meal was simple but fulfilling. It was a classic American breakfast, a sunny-side up with rice and bacon.

My appointment is at afternoon, after eating lunch. I wave at them and telling I will arrive before lunch, I set off and went to the city, observing people as they go with their daily lives.

As I was observing, I saw a man wearing a scarlet red changshan*, with some white pants. There was a white haired monkey with peachy pink skin resting on his shoulders. His jet black hair was braided, slightly narrowed eyes with inky black eyes that was occasionally flashing a bright red. It was weird, but I brushed it off as I thought it was impossible.

I observed him a little while longer and drifted my gaze to observe the various races in crowd.

In my peripheral view, I saw the man with the white haired monkey coming closer in my general direction. Diverting my gaze again, I stared at the upcoming man coming towards me.

" 你好，你介意我知道你的名字？" (Hello, would you mind if I know your name?) He said in Chinese. As he realized on what he has said, he immediately wanted to bow but I disrupted this action.

" 不，它的罚款。 我叫Adriane Rosewood 阿德里安娜很好 你的是什么？" (No, It's fine. My name is Adrian Rosewood. Adriane is just fine. What is yours?) I asked in Chinese as his eyes slightly widened. Possibly as my Chinese is fluent.

" 啊，我的名字是芙蓉。 Fon很好 请问你在哪儿学的中文？" (Ah, my name is Hibari Fon. Fon is just fine. May I ask, where did you learn Chinese?) He asked curiously as he sat beside me.

" 我已经学会了在我的空闲时间，我很着迷的语言，所以我决定学习。" (I've learned in my free time and I was fascinated about the language, so I decided to learn.) I answered softly as he slowly leaned towards me.

I shyly stared at him as he was staring at me quite intently. We talked for hours as the sunlight was slightly dimming. Looking up at the sky, It was now before lunch.

"I'm sorry, but I need to go home now. May we meet again as destiny decides." I softly said as I rushed to go home. But before that, he waved me goodbye.

Fon
I was wandering around in the city with Lichi when I sensed a someone staring at me. It did not fade until much longer when I curiously looked at the person.

He was slightly tall with a lithe but muscular body. With fiery red that fades into a sunset orange that was in a bun. His left eye was an amber orange that fades into pale yellow while the right one was a canary yellow that fades into a pale red. They were really beautiful. Coupled with his creamy tan skin, a button nose in the middle of his face, and his pouty lips that was a rogue pink. Overall, he was stunning and ethereal.

I didn't know who or what controlled my body, but I was walking towards him in a steadfast pace.

Arriving at his position, which was on a bench sitting, I asked " 你好，你介意我知道你的名字？" (Hello, would you mind if I know your name?).

I realized that I was speaking Chinese, and went to bow immediately. But, as I was in the action of bowing, he said " 不，它的罚款。 我叫Adriane Rosewood 阿德里安娜很好 你的是什么？" (No, It's fine. My name is Adriane Rosewood. Adriane is just fine. What is yours?).

" 啊，我的名字是芙蓉。 Fon很好 请问你在哪儿学的中文？" (Ah, my name is Hibari Fon. Fon is just fine. May I ask, where did you learn Chinese?) I said as I went by his side to sit beside him. I looked at him in my peripheral vision, he was still ethereal even when you see him in your peripheral vision.

" 我已经学会了在我的空闲时间，我很着迷的语言，所以我决定学习。" (I've learned in my free time and I was fascinated about the language, so I decided to learn.) He answered softly as I slowly lean in towards him.

He shyly looked at me with a slight blush on his cheeks, which has freckles. A little hard to see, but it was still there.

Time passed as we were discussing about various topics that has piqued his and my interest. I had been slightly surprised that his constitution was like a hermaphrodite. Meaning that he has both male and female genitals, and can give birth to his own children. Good thing, I can't see him be a dominant in a relationship, most likely a submissive I would say.

In the middle of the conversation, he looked up to the sky and his eyes widened. He immediately looked at me, apologetic as he stood up.

"I'm sorry, but I need to go home now. May we meet again as destiny decides." He softly said as he hurriedly left, but before he left I waved him goodbye.

Staring at his disappearing figure, I stood up from the bench and walked aimlessly, as Lichi looked at me in curiosity. I just rubbed her head endearingly while keeping my mind of Adrian. I have a feeling that we will meet soon.

I rushed back to the orphanage, went inside and opened the double doors to the dining room. I looked at the table and saw that the дети are waiting for someone. And by waiting for someone, I mean me.

I slowly paced my breathing and calmly walked to my respective chair. And just in time, the door to the kitchen was opened and revealed our lunch for today.

It was steak cooked to a medium rare with stir fried mushrooms on the side, with a healthy salad consisting of greens kale, spinach, arugula, basil, cilantro, cabbage with some herbs mixed in and they were chopped very finely. There was also chicken, broccoli, avocado, berries, tomatoes, tortilla chips, seeds, and nuts. There was also salad dressing, but it was not too much. The salad was called Chicken and Berry Salad.

Our drinks were now a variety, some with fruit smoothies, others were fruit juices, but I was sticking to water. It reminds me that it was now past the war times, with clean water to drink and air to breathe in deeply.

After eating the delicious meal, I decided to check in with the leaders if everyone is doing their job properly.

"Лисичка, Лучик, Ки́са, Солнышко, and Любимый, come with me please." I stated as they followed me to my room, where our meetings will me held more frequently.

"So, what is the progress with everyone and the individual jobs I assigned to you?" I questioned them as I signed Bia with my eyes to go first.

"Everything with the self-defense training is going smoothly for now, as I am teaching them basic offensive and defensive skills first before finding their own styles. There are some who are slacking, which are Veronica, Victoria, and Heather. But other than that, everything is going fine." Bia stated.

Those three huh? This was not as surprising because those three are girly girls. And they have a little group.

Heather was the 'leader' of the group. Her curly hair was a coffee brown that faded into a chestnut brown. Her eyes were a carnation pink with pupils that looked like little hearts. A button nose situated at the center of her face and pouty lips which were dull red. Her body was petite and lithe, especially for someone who has witnessed and experienced war. Her height was at my chest.

Veronica was the 'secretary' of the group. She knows all about Heather. Her wavy hair was a ginger orange with ochre highlights. Her eyes were a chiffon white with the outer rings of the irises were daisy white. A button nose on the center of her face and lips which were a taffy pink. Her body was slightly maturing, as it evidently seen on her body. Her height was about my shoulder.

Victoria is the 'vice-leader' of the group. Her hair that was always in a bun was a midnight black that fades into boysenberry purple. Her eyes were a butterscotch yellow with flecks of lemon and mellow yellow. A pointy nose situated at the center of her face, and lips which were a coral pink. Her body was slightly curvy and lithe, which indicates that she is going through puberty. Her height is about my chest.

"If this happens again, tell them specifically that I will talk to them personally about their actions." I stated as Bia nodded, looking slightly curious about what will I do to the trio.

"Next, Donovan. State what has happened." I firmly said as Donovan stepped up from his position.

"There were some mafiosi lingering at the perimeter of the orphanage, but no movements from them as of now. I alerted everyone that they should be careful patrolling the perimeter as there is a possibility they will be endangered. Some of the mafiosi that was lingering has left the perimeter of the orphanage." Donovan stated.

"Very good. Be vigilant at all times and stay safe always. Remember to call my name if something bad has happened." I said as he nodded, going back to hid previous position.

"Next, Juniper. What is the progress with teaching the others?" I questioned as she stood up from the line, with hands behind her back as she looks straight at me.

"I had already started with the basics of Math, Science, History, and Language, which for starters is English. The only problem is that some of the children are slacking off, and are unwilling to learn." Juniper stated rather emotionless as she looked at me.

"Who are they?" I stoically said as she readied for stating the children's names.

"They are Darrold, Amir, and Cato. Usually they play around or just plainly sleep. When I reprimand them, they usually just ignore me." Juniper said.

Ah, those three again. They were rather playful and ignorant as to why we are here. Though they are just kids, I need to sternly reprimand them because they need to be aware of what is happening.

Darrold is a child who is rather playful and likes to joke around. His curly hair was ink black hair with some strands of light gray hair that are dotted around. His eyes were a mystifying iris purple with a byzantium purple ring. He has a slightly pointy nose with small lips that were a dull pink. His skin was a tad darker than the average tan and his height was about my shoulders.

Amir is a smart boy, but he is generally lazy. He has long periwinkle purple hair that fades into a lavender purple with a tinge of dark purple that was usually in a low ponytail. His eyes were a blush pink with slit pupils, just like a cat. With a slightly pointy nose and dull red lips, he was looking like a feminine boy. His height was about my upper chest.

Cato is a boy who likes to sleep throughout the day. His undercut hair was a dirty white that fades into a peach pink. His eyes were a cobalt blue that keeps your attention to him. With a cute button nose and slightly cracked dull pink lips, his image was that of a boy Lolita.

"Ash, what about you? Anything happened recently?" I asked him as he straightened his back and proceeded to walk in front of me.

"Nothing majorly bad has happened except for one mishap." Ash said with nervousness creeping in his voice.

"And that is?" I raised my right eyebrow as I stared at him, fidgeting in his place.

"Tristan took advantage of the knives in the kitchen, thinking that nobody was looking. I saw him roll up his sleeves and it took some seconds to realize that there were red lines with fresh and old wounds from a knife I believe." He said with some sadness seeping in.

Ah, Tristan. That boy was a joyful one to accompany. Always with many stories to tell. He had midnight blue hair that was fading into midnight black. He had lapis blue eyes that was sucking you in it. A pointy nose and dusty pink lips, this was his appearance while his height was about my chest.

"Ah... When I come back as soon as possible, I'm going to talk with him, okay? Make sure he doesn't suspect a thing." My words were softly said, but loud enough to hear. I just look at him, nodding while stepping back in his place.

"And lastly, Eryx. What has happened when I wasn't watching over them?" I said to Eryx as he went to replace Ash on where he was standing.

"It was smooth sailing. Some minor ripples, but I had figured it out before it was going to let everyone know." Eryx whispered into my left ear as he went back to his place.

"Very well, keep up the good work. And always remember on what I had told you guys." I said as I looked at them in the eyes, with recognition and agreement had stumbled upon the silence.

"Now, off you go. I have something I must attend to." I shooed them gently as they left my room.

I closed my door and locked it, leaving me in this barren room that was clean and neatly arranged. The problem at hand was, what am I going to wear for that interview, I presume?

I contemplated for a bit, remembered what I had available, and face palmed. Really, I remember everything I had, but not my magic? Yes, magic. It was unbelievable to me at first.

Magic is a bit complicated in theory. Magic can choose its possessor as it has a mind and will of its own. Magic has different sub-elements, main elements, and classes. Each and every one of the elements has a leader, which is the most abundant elemental particle. They decide on which person on who will be the possessor, and can coexist with other elements. Usually, they decide which person through a sixth sense where they know the personality of a person, and decide that personality is to their fitting. Coincidentally, all the elements decided on me because of my personality, they say.

Also, you can communicate to the elements since they can conjure a voice that they can speak to.

Concentrating on my creation magic, I imagined a baby blue sweater, midnight black ripped jeans, and jet black shoes. After imagining, I open my eyes and see a swirl of light grey in front of me.

After a few seconds, the swirl of light grey was replaced with the outfit of my choosing. Immediately stripping off my clothes, I went to grab the new outfit in front of me and put it on.

'Thank you.' I thought as I went outside my room.

'You are most welcome, Adriane. It was our pleasure to make you as our possessor along with the other elements.' The leader of the creation magic said in my head.

Skull
I was at the circus tent, where I had discussed with the leader of the circus, I presume. I immediately started to look around, identifying every face I had encountered. Someone tapped me on my shoulder, I turned to look around and saw the leader of the circus right in front of me.

"Hey there, you are Skull right?" The leader said.

"Yes, I am" I responded smilingly.

3rd Person
After showing the leader his skill with the motorcycle (which was borrowed from a fellow stuntman), he was accepted and was staring tomorrow.

Skull skipped happily back to the orphanage, knowing that it was now dawn and that he didn't really need to sneak inside a building to register his name.

*Changshan- is a traditional Chinese dress worn by men. In function, it is considered the male equivalent of the women's cheongsam. It is also known as a changpao or dagua. It was often worn by men with a magua or "riding jacket".
