Princess of Light
Chapter 1: Welcome to Jalena
"But Daddy, you promise you'll come home two days ago," Ryou Bakura said into the phone, feeling the tears falling from her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Ryou, but I got more work to do. You'll be all right by yourself," her father said.
"But I don't..." Mr. Bakura hanged up. He had broken another promise to his daughter.
Ryou sighed, wiping the tears from her eyes. She felt alone. With her father as her only living she has left and no friends, she wanted him to come home more from his job. It seems to be too much the ask. Normally, she would leave it be when her father said he couldn't and not bother anyone, but she felt so lonely.
Little Ryou is a fifteen-year-old girl who lives by herself. Five years ago, her mother and little sister, Amane, died in an accident. Ever since her father has been distancing himself from her. He lost his love for her when Amane was born. It had bothered her a little that her father favored her sister, but she never felt any anger or hatred towards her. Amane was Daddy's little princess, while Ryou became invisible. Her loving mother loved both Ryou and Amane equally. She would often scowl her husband for choosing one of their daugthers over the other. It wasn't fair. Now that her mother and sister are gone, Mr. Bakura didn't want anything to do with his only daughter.
To Ryou, her existence did make any sense. She had no memory past seven years ago. Though her parents had called her their daughter, she looked nothing like them. Not her parents or her sister had white hair, green eyes, pale skin, and a frail body. She was different from all of people.
Ryou sat down on the couch of her living room, opening a good book to read.
It was a good love story, the fluffy kind where all goes right in the end. Ryou loved those stories. She quickly became lost in it. Imaginiting the heroine as herself, where she become loved by sweet young man who would do anything to protect her and keep her smile alive.
This book in particialar was her favorite. It was deep, and she loved it. It showed the importance of light and love. Right now, Ryou needed some love. She would wanted more than nothing for someone to love her for who she is. Of course, becuase of her polite and modest nature, she would never want anyone to bother with her or see how desperate she wanted to not be alone anymore.
"Ryou."
"Huh?"
Ryou looked around. That female voice came out of no where. No one was inside the apartment but her.
"My precious sweet child."
"Hello?"
Ryou got up to find the source of the voice. It sounded so familiar, but she couldn't remember where she heard from. It was so gentle and sweet, like a voice of a mother.
"Wear your pendant. Wear it please."
"My pendant?"
Ryou knew what she was taking about, but how did this person know? When the lovely voice didn't come say anything else, she went to her room to her dresser where a jewelry box sat.
The jewelry box was her mother's. It made out of silver and decorated by her mother's favorite gems, aquamarines and aqua aura stones. It was a beautiful item that reflected her mother so much, beautiful and blue as well as blue being her favorite color.
Ryou carefully lifted the lid to reveal an unquie beautiful silver oval-shaped pendant that acted as a locket somewhat. The cover had a picture of an angel holding a cross that had a light blue stone (called angelite) in the center. A circle of round angelite stones at the border of the cover. When it opened, there was a mirror was the left and an oval-shaped emerald in the center of the right side, along with seven holes around it for missing gems. It was hanging on a nice long chain.
Emerald was an amazing gem. It meant pure love, hope, and faith. Angelite stones strengthen understanding and compassion as well as being used to contact angels.
Whatever this pendant/locket was, she didn't know. When Ryou woke-up one day ten years ago without memories in her home with her parents, it was around her neck. What was that voice talking about?
Ryou took out the pendant and put it around her neck. She felt so confuse and so lonely. She felt like a burden.
"Why am I even here?"
Suddenly, the pendant snapped opened as the emerald started to glow.
"W-What...? What's happening?"
The light from the emerald was growing brighter and brighter. It was blinding. Ryou had to sheild her eyes. Suddenly, the ground disappeared from under her feet. She was falling through a white abysis. She fell for what seem to be hours before she hit water without getting hurt. Ryou sank deeper into the water. If she tried to swim, it would be a waste of energy. The pull of the water was too strong. There was nothing to really worry about anyway. Ryou could breathe.
Finally, Ryou reached the end of the water, falling through to just fall in air again. This time she saw the blue sky and clouds and beneath her there was land. The emerald calmed down to a pretty glow, slowing down her fall so she couldn't be killed when she finally landed.
As soon as Ryou's feet touched the ground, the emerald stopped its light, closed, and settle down. It laid against Ryou's chest, lifeless, like it was before she put it on.
The confuse and frighten girl looked around her surroundings. She was in a forest that was unfamiliar to her. She was scared. She didn't know where she was.
"Welcome to the world of Jalena."
Preview: Ryou wanders, trying to find out why she's in Jalena. She meets Bakura, a rough theft, who wants to steal the pendant but is unable to.
