✦✧   The young ten year old had snuck into his older sister's room (mostly as his older brother kept his room locked) and slowly moved to her vanity. He pulled out some black lipstick, trying it on and looking at the mirror. However, he yelped as he felt a hand on his shoulder, looking at his older sister.

✦✧   "Huh?" He blinked, looking at the other. Was this a spell? He moved over to pinch the other Genis's cheek. ✧✦

✦✧   Beside her cage was another cage, this one housing a small white haired boy. He appeared no older than her, looking rather thin despite his age. He slowly pushed some bread over to her, "You were unconscious when you came in.. so.. they didn't feed you.."   He shook his head at her question, though, "No.. I'm just as confused as you are.. I was just heading home from school when I was grabbed.." He didn't know why he was here and he didn't know why he was specifically taken.   "I'm just glad you're awake now.. I was afraid you were.. well.. dead.." ✧✦

✦✧   "Alright, students, I will see all of you when the new semester begins." He smiled, opening the door for all of the students to leave. He had a fun time teaching and now, it was winter break. He adjusted his scarf, leaving the Palmacosta school as it began to snow. ✧✦

✦✧   The little kid rubbed at his eyes, whimpering as some men yanked at his hair. He was seen as a freak with his long white hair and his pointed ears, something no one in the city had seen before. He tried to break free, kicking one in the shin before running off into an alley to cry. ✧✦

✦✧   "You know.. the last Aifread I met swindled Lloyd." He chuckled, walking over to his fiance and lifting her hand to kiss it, "You remember how shocked he looked when he found out we started dating?" ✧✦

✦✧   Genis had never seen weapons like this before. The closest he had ever seen were Colette's chakrams, but even then, they weren't able to shoot things. Was it like a cannon?   "Hey, Alvin, can I ask you about your weapon? They look really cool and I've never seen anything like that before." ✧✦

✦✧   Genis sighed a bit as he saw the beheaded woman floating inside of the train station. He slowly moved to the back of the wall, hoping she wouldn't try to speak to him. when the train stopped, he quickly got off, heading out of the station. ✧✦
