PROLOGUE

The Elders
The oracles

So many people in such a small land, and yet, all of them look up to those few that have powers. Powers that they wish they had but didn't. In this land, Kings, Queens, Princesses, Princes and Noblemen are granted amazing powers.

"I want you to inform the King that the Chosen Ones have been prophesised (sp?)," an Elder told a messenger.
This messenger was the most trusted in the land. He was fast and remembered things well. That was his ability. He remembered anything and everything and, as he ran, he memorised what he had been told.

"My lord!" The messenger cried as he entered the amazing palace where his King lived.
"What is it?" The King asked, in a bored monotone. He was often told insignificant things by many messengers. However, he didn't recognise the man before him.
"My Lord, the Elders have seen the Chosen Ones," the messenger said.
The King sat up straight in his throne and examined the man sitting in front of him more closely.
"When did this happen?" He asked gently
"Only a few moments ago, my Lord," the messenger reported.
The King smiled; it had been years since anything interesting had come from the Elders.
"When are these Chosen Ones gracing us with their presence?" asked the King, joy choking his voice.
"Sire," the messenger paused, "They do not know... but they do know it will happen when..."


CHAPTER 1
DILLION
I need food, I thought, as I watched a deer drinking from a pond.
But, I don't know if I could kill it with just this knife. I looked down at my knife, well, not really my knife, I had stolen it from a stall in the local market. It had been the best knife I could find and I had been surprised that I had gotten away with it. Although, looking back on it now, I wish I had stolen something a bit bigger.
"Oh well," I whispered to myself as I watched the deer, "Sorry, dude, but I need food."
I stepped out from my hiding place and ran as quickly as I could, tyring to make as little noise as possible, still, the deer heard my approach. He started to run and I sprinted after him.
You are not getting away, I thought with determination.
Then, out of nowhere, the deer stopped dead in its tracks. Then, I realise that there was an arrow sticking out of its head
"Move away if you don't want to die like the deer," a voice commanded.
I looked around madly, trying to find the voice, but everywhere I looked I saw only the dark, familiar green of the forest.
Where is it? Who is it? What is it? I thought quickly.
"COME OUT AND FACE ME!" I cried, still examining the forest.
The only thing that answered me was laughter
"Now, why would I do that? I have a perfect view of you up here, and you can't find me," the voice answered.
I could tell the voice was female from its timbre. I began my search again, but this time, looking above me, not around. I could also tell that her voice had come from above me... and that it was close.
"Hey! You can't take all the credit for this kill. I hope you know that!" I called, "I helped too! If it wasn't for me, the deer would never have come this way!"
"Sooner or later it would have," she answered.
"Please, come down here," I pleaded, "at least give me half of it! Without this deer I'll starve!" I fell to the ground giving up. I had used up the last of my strength chasing the animal here.
I couldn't move, I just lay there, next to the dead animal. I couldn't even be bothered to move away from the carcass. I closed my eyes and waited. I was so tired that it didn't bother me to stay there. Without food or without family I had nothing… well, besides the knife and the little possessions that I had left.
"You really do need the food... don't you…" the voice said.
"OF COURSE I DO!" I yelled angrily. What is it with girls? Always pointing out the obvious, I thought angrily
well here is part 1 of the OLA series i have :)

HOPE YOU ENJOY!!!!
