Hearts of the Moon and Sun by Margaret Faulkner (sites to read books for free .TXT) 📕

   It all started when my spirit master told me I was born by the Moon and that I have moon powers. Since that day my foster father, Mieston, took me out of school and taught me the ways of the Moon. My name means Moon here, here names are usually named after there calling. If I wasn't named Mist I would have suffered the life of being the slave of the Moon, or my own father. But since I've been taken out of school when I was little, I had to train my butt off, for a day that i'll have to go to the city of Plamenton and join the guild of Crystal Mage. The only reason why I couldn't go as soon as I was taken out school was because the age to register into Crystal Mage is fourteen, I was six at the time. But now I'm fourteen and ready to travel to Plamenton.


    I was standing at the dock in Garsenie, my hometown. My duffel bag was filt with spells, gold coins, and clothes. All this time when I was waiting I was singing, dancing and irritating the people around me. I'm a social butterfly and really don't care what other people think of me. When people stare at me I would just fluff my silver streaked black hair and give them a smirk. Mieston grabbed me by the ear once he saw me fooling around. 

" Stop, the ship is almost here, ant pants."

The ship pulled up, I smiled. Everyone started getting on.

" If you please Dad, could I go now? "

He let go of my ear , then I ran on board. I waved to Mieston, he smiled then walked away. I was finally leaving! Once I made myself cozy on the ship I couldn't help myself from annoying the captain by tipping his hat, or touching the steering wheel, I was instantly making him angry. I didn't care, his problem not mine. After a while the captain called a few servants to show me to my room. Once I got there I saw that it was a small room that shook with each small turn of the ship with a hammac and a small round window.

" Bye," I said happily.

I jumped onto the hammac and started reading a book, after a while I ordered some bean soup and fell asleep. The hammac shook and rattled so it was hard for me to go to sleep. But finally I had cast a short time sleep spell on myself and finally got my rest.


  Once I woke up I was in Thesales, a type of jungle. I got off the ship feeling the hot muggy air and little bugs fly over my face. I looked for an empty seat on the dock to sit on and wait for the next ship. I sat next to a Night Elf women, she smiled at me.

"First time, on a ship," she asked.

" Nope, probably my third," I said while putting up three fingers.

" Do you have any gold?" She asked. 

Oh gosh not another begger. They would just ask and ask until you decide to punch them in the face. But I`m sort of trash talking myself to because sometimes I don`t have any money, but still I decided to lie.

" No. No I don't "

" Well here have some gold," she handed me some gold.

" Thanks!" I got up and left.

I walked around the dock hoping to find a store that sells food. Luckily I did, I looked at the sign on the store, though it was in a different language, I saw a bowl and assumed it was food. I ordered four containers of bean soup and five packs of water. I sat in a chair in the building next to a girl about my age. She had orange hair, a orange tank top, short tan pants and mountain climber boots. She also had a bright yellow glow, I looked at her more to see that she was reading a book called Sun Spells. Only people from Kilithia can do Sun spells. That must mean she's a Sun spell caster.

" Hey what`s your name."

She looked at me then in a small voice and said, " Sunni."

Sunni went back to reading her book. So I decided to pull out my Moon spell books.

" Oh yeah, and my name is Mist. I'm not allowed to tell anyone this but I'm the heart of the Moon."

Sunni's eyes lite up. Then her voice grew louder, she now looked far more confident then she did when I first talked to her.

" I'm the heart of the Sun."

My mouth dropped open, I then realized it was true. The prophecy of the war against the horde, the King of the Horde, the dead and the eclipse. Sooner or later this girl and I would have to work together to fight the King of the Horde. I know this because I learned it before I was taken out of school.

" Do you know about the prophecy...," Sunni said with her voice shaking.

" Yeah. Do you want to be friends, because were both going to Plamenton. Right?"

" Yeah. Sure I would really like that." Sunni seemed more confident with friends. She was talking and talking and talking about stuff i didin't care about. Honestly I wanted her to shut up but I acually liked it since I haven't had any friends in a while. She finally got to a point in our "conversation" that seemed exsauhsting, when she said we have to travel contineint to contineint. But I didn't care yet I was just happy I finally had a friend.

I remember when my brother had said the Sun is my father. I just wanted to scream and runaway because of the prophecy it reminds me of what had happened with the horde when I was a kid. The Horde had atacked Kilithia killing my parents. Luckily I had hid with my brother, but one had spotted us. But I had blasted them with a fireball and gotten away. A few years after the attack, we lived with our grandma and she had told me when I`m fourteen I will travel to the city of Plamenton, so now I get ready for the war of the century. Just to think, two fourteen year old girls against a roaring beast. It's most likely for me to die. I wasn't tough I wasn't strong, I was just a girly girl. And girly girls don't fight. By the look of this Mist girl, she looked like a town boy. She wore a black shirt with a skull on it, black boy pants with a black skirt with a belt over the pants. We will never be friends.But that's what I think. "So, did you look at your map yet, I've always wanted to go to Crystal Lake,"said Mist."You do realize that place is in another continent right?" Mist looked at me and smiled. "Yeah, but I can still dream, I bet it looks like a winter wonderland."

After a while I stood up and walked around.
