Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Auction
As my vision sharpened I saw a dark room filled with dim lights with people wearing masks and capes with hoods. The bright light was shoved at me who was in the middle of the stage. The people started bidding with grins painted all over their faces like I was some precious item on the lottery. I felt immense rage from the scene, yet my body wouldn't budge an inch. That was when I realized that I was paralyzed. As I was struggling mentally thinking of how to escape from this abnormal situation. A group of people busted the door and immediately arrested every people who gathered in the auction. I felt relieved as I thought I was about to be saved when a bright pink hair man that looked like he was in his early 40s walked up to me.
"There's no way to escape now." the old man said in front of my face as he squatted. At that time I felt disgusted and the way the effect of paralyzation was drastically decreasing at the same time
I shouldn't have expected anything. His familiar intimidating gaze locked onto mine as the paralyzation wore off. I kicked his chin without hesitation and ran towards the door. I somehow managed to escape from the front door since the other people were busy arresting the whole association of bidders.
"Catch her!!" He loudly yelled as the guards chased me from a distance. I found myself engulfed in the forest where the auction was being held. I entered the deep forest without hesitation just to escape from them. At some point in time, I lost them but I also lost myself in the process.
I sat beside a tree, hungry for food, when I raised my head to look at the sky, I saw apples hanging on the tree branches. Luckily all the trees in the forest didn't cover up the moonlight. I climbed the tree like how I did when I was a child and plucked apples from the tree.
As I was going down the tree with all the apples I brought there were a few things I discovered while escaping from those people.
Firstly I realized that my whole appearance changed and not only that I also realized that I look like a 6-year-old. There were quite a few more things to note, I realized that this world I'm in is quite novel-like. I was disappointed with my new appearance since I thought I looked like an old child but whatever.
That's because when I looked at my hair I saw a silver-white hair, unlike the jet black hair colour I had. I ended up sighing a couple of times as I munch on the freshly picked apples I plucked from the tree. I also wore a weird dress that is similar looking to an apron, but 360°.
Everything I saw and felt was weird to the point I felt exhausted to the point I forgot that I was being chased and that I needed a shelter to reside in. As I was about to sleep I heard a quick whisper that I didn't understand but I was sure that it was the voice of my mother.
"Mom...?" I instantly opened my eyes to take a look, but all I saw was the violin, my mother used to play when I was a child.
I felt bewildered as to how it got here, but I didn't question how and just thought of it as a gift from my mother.
I rose from my position and stood up. I grabbed the bow and violin and posed myself in the right position.
I played my mother's favourite piece when I was a child. As the moonlight embraced me a soft and elegant tune with tints of loneliness could be heard throughout the forest. The sad melodies that one could create are unpredictable. As I start to tear up without realizing I remembered the days I asked my mother about this music piece, but she would just constantly break into tears. She desperately tried to hide the tears she shed as I sat on the floor.
As I was playing the violin piece that doesn't even exist in this world by the moonlight, I didn't discover that a mysterious figure with crimson red eyes was watching me from afar behind the trees...
