Scar Adventures Beyond The Door Arc Part Three
The World
"Well Dorothy, looks like we're not in Kansas anymore!" Charlotte said.
"No…no we don't seem to be…" Scar commented as she looked around. "It seems that we are in another world."
"Seems so…" Charlotte said as she sniffed the air. It smelt like cherry with a fest morning breeze. "Do you think that Bill and Bliss-"
"Yes!" Scat cut off revealing an average sized elephant teddy.
"Then where are they?"
They looked around and Scar noticed a few buildings in the distance.
"I think that we ought to start there." She said pointing to the buildings.
Charlotte let out a silent groan.
"Do they have to be that far away?" She moaned.
Scar looked at her as if she had done something absurd.
"What? I just don't like to walk that long!"
She raised her eyebrow.
"Stop it!" She said then put her hand to get face. "This is just the other Charlotte all over again!"
"What?"
"Never mind. Come on!"
They walked and walked until they came to a small village. They spotted that the roads were cobbled and the buildings built like they belonged to the Tudor era with others built like they were built in the medieval era. Then the people were dressed in robes like those of the eras too, yet there were others who were dressed in leather and other strange materials that neither had seen before. To their surprise some had pointy ears and others had blue, purple or green hair and by the look of eyebrows and lashes Scar was ankle to conclude that they were not dyed.
"Well you don't see that every day!"
Scar gave her the same look as earlier. She shrugged this off and shook her head and looked aside.
Come on Charlotte! You're the adult here!
"It's alright! Look, just think you're playing one of those role playing games!" She said with a lighter pitch tone to her voice than she would have liked.
She sighed.
"I know."
She smiled and pointed at one of the elves that was dressed in a green dress and a loose creased skirt. She had bright, fiery ginger hair with deep amber eyes and high cheekbones.
"Look, we could ask her." She said as she held the girl's hand and walked up to her.
"As if! How do we know she even speaks English?" She asked, but by the time that she finished that sentence they were already across the road.
"Hi! I'm Charlotte, this is my daughter, Scar, how're you?" She asked boldly.
She looked at her slightly annoyed, then her eyes dropped to Scar and they widened almost add of she could not believe her eyes. She knelt in front of the girl and put a hand on her.
"Mythos Puros!" She said, at this she appointed Scar seized up completely. Her eyes widened as she backed away from her. She could even see a slight femme as she looked at her horrified.
"Scar? Scar are you alright?" She asked as she shook her.
She looked at her and snapped her out of her episode.
"I'm sorry." The elf said. "I seem to have upset her."
"Don't call me that!" She said dangerously. "My name is Scar!"
"Alright Scar, what do you wish to obtain from me?"
"Have you seen a pair of twins? Brown hair, same colour eyes as me but with a healthier look?"
"Oh, they were taken to the castle of the Dark Lord. Over there!" She said pointing to a far away castle.
"Come on! What did he-"
"There was a prophecy saying that his doom would come from a child from another world, but if you are planning on getting them back, you have to speak to a fawn. He will tell you how. Oh, and you better come with me now. We also need to get you into different clothes too! You'll blend in better here."
With a small walk they were soon at the elves' cottage. It was in the shape of a small tube and had a wide comb thatched roof. With only three rooms that looked like they were being built as time went on.
"My name is Aki Fireheart and this is my son Blaph Fireheart." She said as she gestured to a young boy with coal black hair and eyes like his mothers'.
"Mother!" she said as he pointed to her. "It-is that a-"
"Yes, but she does not like being called that. So call her Scar."
"Oh! Do you think that she looks like-"
"Yes, I know."
"So why are they-"
"We need to give them a few of our clothes…"
"Then cut her hair! She won't pass as a boy if you don't!"
She looked at Scar apologetically. She shrugged.
"Will that be alright with that?"
"Sure!"
"Scar?" Charlotte said warningly.
She looked at her as if to two her to get serious. Realizing that the girl was right she nodded.
"Just, just don't make it too short. Okay?" She said, slightly pained.
She nodded and smiled.
"Never fear, I know what I am doing."
She soon had it cut with a long fringe and her hair racing the lower neck. She looked at herself in the mirror and she noticed that she really did look like a boy, a malnourished one, but one all the same. She liked and suited the style better than before. She smiled as she turned around.
"I like it!" She declared as Blaph gave her some of his clothes. When she changed into them she noticed that they fit perfectly. She then saw that there was a portrait on the wall. It was of someone that looked identical to her, yet her eyes were white.
"Hey! Who's that?" She asked.
Aki looked at it.
"I think that I should not say."
"Oh? And why's that?"
"You will know when the time comes."
She nosed as she turned to her mother.
"So, how do I look?"
"Actually, that looks better than before!" She admitted. "So, how do I look?"
She asked as she wore a beautiful black and maroon dress with small red jewels on it.
"You look better too!"
"You really think so?"
"Yup!"
She smiled at her.
"Right, here are your supplies." Aki said.
"Thank you. Say thank you Scar."
"Thank you."
With that they were on their way to the faun.
