Chapter 1: 10 Years Ago
A 5 year old Jananee stared up at the sky, watching snow fall. "What is it?" She asked, catching some of the white powder on her mitten.

It is snow, answered a gentle voice. Jananee stared at the snow and then asked again, "Why is it white?"

The voice just laughed quietly, Because, snow is pure, and white is the color of pureness.

Jananee wanted to ask the voice why snow was pure, and why it was so cold, but stopped when a shadow dropped out of a tree near her. The shadow landed a few yards ahead of Jananee, and stepped into the light, an evil smileon his face.

Jananee took a step back, whimpering. The man had one neon green eye and a pale green eye, and a frightening smile. He sensed Jananee's fear, and grinned, showing off his sharp canine teeth.

"Hello, child," He said, licking his lips, "Why are you out so late?"

Jananee took another a step back. The man tilted his head sideways, frowning. "Are you lost? Do you want me to take you home?" The man reached out to grab Jananee, but the gentle voice from before yelled softly at her, Run!

Jananee turned around and ran as fast as her little legs could carry her. She turned her head to see the man turn into a thing that looked like lion, and scorpion crossed. It roared and ran after her. Jananee shrieked, and ran faster, but slipped, and fell down. She turned around and stared up at the thing. Jananee's heart beat faster, and then, it lunged at her, but something shoved the lion out of the way.

The lion rolled other and growled at the boy who blocking Jananee. The lion charged and lunged again, but this time, the boy brought up a black sword, and stap the lion. With a final bellow, the lion turned to dust.

"Bad kitty." Jananee whispered, staring at the pile of dust. The boy turned and looked at Jananee with concerned green eyes and spiky blonde hair. He looked about 11 or 12. "Are you alright?" He asked, helping her up. Jananee just nodded, still in shock of what just happened.

"What's your name?" He asked, kneeling down so he could see into her brown eyes.

Jananee just shook her head.

"You don't know your name?" The boy said, confused. Jananee shook her hand again. After a few seconds, he took off his coat and rapped it around Jananee.

"Come on," He said, holding her hand, leading her towards the city.
