For the first time in months, Whisper was happy. A giggle escaped her mouth as she twirled in the falling snow, her crimson robe flying out behind her. Her hand flew to her mouth to silence the joyous sound. It was a reflex. Her father had always beat her when she showed such a weak emotion.
But Daddy's not here, is he? A smile split across her face and she let out a chorus of laughter, spinning in the snow like she was a small child. After a few spins she let herself fall onto the ground with a thump. I could get used to this, she thought. The cold doesn't bother me, and neither will those Lurkers if they know what's good for them. Best of all, NO PEOPLE! She let out a contented sigh and wtched the snow fall down around her. It was peaceful, something she had only experienced once in her life, when her father had died. Without warning, a giggle escaped her ivory lips. Suddenly she was bursting with laughter for no reason what so ever. She was happy, but the tiny voice in the back of her mind knew it wouldn't last long. How right it was.

"What the heck is that?" Mia asked herself as she climbed over a rock looking for that damn herb that only grew in the snow on the top of Snowy Mountain. She saw a girl, laughing and giggling, just lying in the snow. "Wel..." she said curiusly and a eyebrow rose, somthing her brother had taught her.

Whisper heard Mia and jumped up, landing nimbly on her feet. She took out her swords and glared at the other girl.
"State your name" she commanded.

"Woah, peace!" said Mia jumping back slightly putting her hand on her hip where she kept her knives. "Mia," she said answering her question.

Foes don't normally state their name, but you can never be too sure. Whisper lowered her swords, but did not put them away.
"What are you doing here?" she asked Mia.

"Who?" Whisper asked, intriuged. Her father had never taught her about anything but death.

"Yes, one who controls, and knows most about an eco," said Mia confused slightly.

Whisper nodded curtly.
"Good-bye" she said, turning to leave.

Whisper continued walking.
"Why should I tell you?" she asked in a flat tone that betrayed no emmotion.

Mentally, Whisper rolled her eyes.
