It had been snowing. The Winter months were still in their fullest and there didn't seem to be an end to the constant blizzards and freezing cold temperatures. The Forest trees were covered in the thick white blanket and were so compacted together that from above it would have just looked like the ground with a few small green patches. But the fact that it is a forest is what makes this so amazing, so life changing for the small group of people that decide to make something of themselves, and that is where this story begins.
The snow fell off the branch of a tree, falling straight onto the head of a sleeping girl, waking her instantly. "Ack!" She jumped up, totally drenched and sprinkled with tiny dusts of snow flakes. She wasn't that tall, about 5ft. 2 and she had a slim build. Her shoulder-length, black hair reflected the morning sky, grey as it was, and her bright, blue eyes were big and had the look of a curious young child even though she herself was fourteen. Emiru Honoka was well known in her small town in the middle of the forest, for always running away from her older brother and causing endless trouble and at this moment in time, she had indeed, run away from her brother in the middle of the night. Not that this bothered her, he had to be used to it by now. But now, to her annoyance, she would have to return home herself without being looked for, to look for dry clothes before she froze to death.
The wind blew flakes off of the branches of the trees which arched over the path leading into the town. So many changes had happened in the last few years that if someone had asked, Emiru could name fifty in under a minute, but no one asks because no one new ever comes into the area. "Life's boring." Emiru said to herself, walking through the town gates, leaving footprints in the perfect carpet of snow, making the first marks of life in the still sleeping town. She pasted many alleyways, many shops, but no people. All curtains in windows were drawn shut and there was no sign of candle light, the same as every single early morning, no different, no change, not this time. "I want something to happen. But it won't" She said, kicking up the snow and following the street further.
"You're late this morning." The boy looked about nineteen and had the same black hair but in spikes, as Emiru and he had the same blue eyes.
"Get over it." Emiru said. "Make sure something happens today, or I'll disappear again." She turned her back on her brother and walked up the stairs. "Oh and Jiko, brush your hair, you look like a mug."
And this introduction leaves this rebellious young girl in her house with her brother, in a small town, in the centre of the forest where changes have happened. But further changes are still to come. After all, this is a new future.
[OCC: I hope people can make something out of that, if not let me know and I'll use it for a story plan instead and I'll start again here.]
