you were born centuries ago when solomon was younger, locked up in the family basement that has only one window, not allowed to be let out because people would burn him at the stake for practicing sorcery.
You were treading through the woods, going on one of your little adventures with your basket that was full of weird looking rocks you liked to collect.
Thats when you saw him.
He let out a little gasp when you caught his curious eyes, looking up at you with little stars in them.
Your toothy smile represented the sense of victory urging through your veins as you ran up to the small window, kneeling down to inspect the "ancient beast with grey eyes" you've heard so many rumors about.
furrowing your brows, you wondered, how do I call upon that thing?
"Uh..hello?"
No answer. Ofcourse, what were you thinking? The rumors (group of old ladies at church), said the magic beast was only seen during blood moons...which is tonight! Anyways The point is that its very, very, VERY rare. So obviously you have to approach it with the utmost politeness and gentleness.
So, you banged on the window bars as loud as possible. It was a smart move, of course. Since you could only see the magic beast at night during the blood moon, obviously, it meant that it was sleeping during the day, right? I mean, thats what you wouldve done if you were the magic beast–anyways! You were determined to wake him up and you sure as hell knew you were succeeding.
What you didn’t know is that the "magic beast" was in silent panic due to your antics. Eyes blown wide, hand over his mouth to silence his breathing as he hid in the shadows, right beside his window. If you moved a little to the left, you wouldve caught him by now.
"Uh..hellooooo? Mr. Magic beast.. sir?"
Well, now he was confused. Magic beast?
"Alright, dude. Hears the thing: I'm not planning to wait here all day, so if you dont come out within 3 seconds, not only will I lose the opportunity of being the hero of the town for catching you and showing you to the council (group of old ladies at church), but you, sir, will lose the title of being my pet. And that is a great loss because, well, I'm.. I'm amazing. So, I'll start counting now. "
"Excuse me!?" in a spur of anger, heat of the moment if you will, he spoke up a bit too soon. All he could do at this point was to clamp his mouth shut and regret his decision.
"WOAH! you can talk!?" you jumped back, startled. He even sounds like a human, too! Not the grumbly low voice or the angelic soft voice you thought he'd have.
Silence.
"Uh hellooooo??? Magic beast, sir? I know I heard you. And I know that you know that I know that I heard you. So drop the hard to get act and come out already! I'm getting impatient."
No answer.
"Have I offended you? Is that it? Should I apologise?"
"Alright. This is boring. Im giving up. You're probably a sleeptalker, or I hallucinated or something. Theres no other possible explanation as to why I heard you screech " eXcUsE mE?!" right after I offered you a solid business deal. Toodles."
Solomon was panicking a little, he didn’t want you to leave! you were the first human outside of his family to approach him. He clearly gave you a bad impression, so you probably wont be coming back, like, ever.
Responding to you or, God forbid, calling out to you would possibly be the worst thing he could do, it is the number one rule his family bestowed upon him: do not talk to strangers. Talking to you would mean betraying his family, and he wasn’t going to do that.
...right?
Well, its not like they were listening in on him, and its not like anyone would believe you if you went around town telling everyone about your conversations with the "magic beast". Why did they call him that? Who knows.
No one would know. He wont get in trouble. He'll get to talk to someone new without consequences. His family only made that rule because they wanted him to be safe, and well, he is. Its not like you of all people, would be able to hurt him, you're all alone. You dont have backups, you're unarmed, and no offence but you sound a bit too dumb to do something like that. Hes also, a sorcerer! He can just get rid of you if you try something! (Again, no offence, but he seems too cowardly to actually hurt someone).
Crunch! Uh oh, sounds. That meant you probably stepped on a leaf. Which meant you moved your legs. Which meant you stood up.Which meant you were leaving!!!!
"Wait!" he stepped out of the shadows, infront of the window, only to stand there and stare at you in disbelief.
You never got up. You had some parts of a dry leaf in your hand, that you probably crushed. With your hand. You were still sitting, wearing that smug grin on your face.
"I know, I'm insanely smart."
Authors note: hello!! this is my first official fanfiction so I'm a bit nervous haha. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated but please be nice! Grma for reading ^ ^
