THE GIRL, THE LEGEND AND THE GOD

That day was an unusual day for 6-year old Leone Steinfred. She was wearing a t-shirt and shorts giving her tomboyish appearance. As she was walking down the road she saw few ugly guys of about 12 or so ganging up on a boy of about her own age and bullying him. She couldn't see anyone getting bullied she protests it. She always does. Even if it is on the school or somewhere else, cause when the guys she saved calls her a hero she fells a feeling of self-accomplishment. So she ran up to those bullies and asked them after pushing them off the boy "What are you guys doing huh? Have you no shame?"

"What do you want kid?"A bully who looked quite fat asked.

"Leave him alone".Leo answered with a angry look on her face.

"Oh really! Why do we have to do that?"The boy asked with a teasing face.

"Do you guys really like to gang up on small kid of half your age?"Leone asked them.

"Why you...." Boy hops towards Leo with a fist.By this time a bell rang on the church making every one realize they are getting late for school. "Tsk we are getting late.Looks like today the bell saved you.But I will remember you kid" said that bully. Leone just showed him a mocking face and went near the boy who was still standing right there like nothing has happened. Though he was taking huge punches from guy double his size. Leone was kinda amazed. She thought he would be bleeding profusely by now. But he didn't have a single scratch on him

"Hey! You alright?" Leone asked the boy who was dusting his clothes which was somehow full of dust.

"Yeah, No problem."Boy said without even looking at Leone.

"It looks so. Hehe"Leone said trying to fake a smile.

"By the way , Who are you?I haven't seen you around here."The boy asked Leo looking her at the eyes.Leo takes a good look at him.He had black hair which was long till his shoulder and black eyes which looked like it had nothing in it.He was wearing a dusty white half hand shirt and shorts of grey color.Even though his clothes were full of dirt.He looked somewhat shiny in Leone's eyes.

"Me . I'm Leone Steinfred. I moved here just 2 days ago."Leone says to him with a smile..

"Then its Leo.Yes it is Leo"Cain says to himself with his hands on the chin and nodding his head on yes."You are Leo."Cain says to Leone.

"What!"Leone asks with a surprised expression.

"You're Leo from now on.I will call you Leo.And I am called Cain.Okay"Cain says walking to her and touching her shoulders.

"My name is Leone not Leo you can't change my name like that"Leone says with an angry expression while taking his hands off from her shoulders .She says"And don't touch me like that".

"Whatever" Cain says turning back.

"It's Leone not Leo.Did you understood that. "Leo says with an angry expression.

"Whatever"Cain replies walking towards where his backpack was kept in the roadside.

"Don't 'Whatever' me" Leo says while slamming her feets on the floor.

"So what are you doing here Leo?"Cain asks her while he takes the backpack up and wearing it on his shoulders

"I told you its Leone."Leo says.Cain walks up to her and keeps staring at her. "I don't know anymore.Just call me whatever you want.By the way I had to come here because of my papa. He was a former commander of military and he had a villa in this village. And we came here after he retired"Leo says to Cain

"So you were the one who moved into that villa "Cain asks.

"Yep. By the way why are you still fine after taking so many punches"Leone asks Cain touching his triceps.

"That was nothing.Well my dad's punches are strong enough to punch holes on your villa. And I had to I take at least one punch a day from him all these years."Cain says while showing off his strength.

"Wait a human like that can't exist no one can punch through 6-inch reinforced steel."Leone says with a shocked expression in the top of her voice.

"Hey calm down.I was just kidding."Cain says with a smile." I am an orphan. I live in the orphanage right there "He points towards the east where they could see a tower from which the bells were ringing before.

"You are an orphan"Leo asks with a sympathetic face.

"Yes I have lived on that orphanage as long as I can remember."Cain says looking towards the tower.

"I kinda know how it feels.I mean my mom died when I was very young and my papa was always on the battleground so I was all alone for almost all my life in a child care center for the children of soldiers.So I hate my papa."Leo says with an angry face.

"I kinda understand that feeling you got"Cain says with his hands on her shoulders.

"I thought you would say something like , you have still got your dad at least "Leo asks of surprise.

"I am different from all those people out there who are orphans and thinks having parents are great. I think living without parents in a world unknown could be a great adventure. And I got enough reasons for that too."Cain says while looking at the sky.

"Are you telling that for real?"Leo asks Cain with a face like she can't believe what he just said.

"Yes.I am not kidding this time."Cain says with a childish look.

"God! You're unbelievable Cain."Leo says while nodding her head.

"You are right Leo,God really is unbelievable."Cain says with a blank look.

"What did that mean?"Leo asks Cain as he starts walking back towards the tower.

"It's nothing." Cain says without stopping

"Why is god unbelievable?"Leo asks with a higher tone.

"Well you will see it one day with your own eyes I guess."Cain says back still walking forward.Leo starts following him

"Wait!"She screams." What do you mean by I will see it one day?"She asks at the top of her tone.Cain just walks straight ahead.She started running towards Cain. She dashed ahead but fell down tripping on a stone.Everything in front of her eyes went dark.For some reason tears rolled out from her eyes."Wait she tried to say but She lost herself before that.

Leo opened her eyes.She was lying on the battlefield.She was cut down by the enemy and had lost consciousness.She was dreaming about her childhood.That was how she met her first and only love.The only world that she belonged to.She got up with a body all battered up .She walked forward.She looked all around her.The battlefield was filled with bodies of various species and everybody was fighting someone.She was the only one with no opponent."Recovery" she said as she casted that spell on herself.Her wounds began to disappear.She took a walk over the battlefield and said to herself "Cain.I may have understood the meaning of what you said that day."She looked up at the sky where also men were fighting.She brought up herself and her eyes became sharp and she soared the sky preparing herself of the upcoming battle.
