The Gifted Fox

The Gifted Fox

Chapter 1

As the evolution of the world collides gaining knowledge and development over the years. Myths and legends being constructed by those few who could write and read in the old days. Yet after all that the world has suffered from, let alone the choices by inventors who exclaim a new way for survival, would anyone in any lifetime be prepared for  this…

The white blond hair, soft like pure fur, straight down to the hip. Gorgeous ocean blue eyes, with a pinch of green that shined brighter than the sun. White skin that resembled snow that fell down from the sky. “Did i die?!”

My name is Natalia Newton, I'm twenty seven. I'm not anyone special, but I spent my whole life studying wasteful boring things I didn't get to use in my upcoming years. like every blind lover girl on the planet I was chasing a man with no dignity or heart. I was smart, but not smart enough to see a two faced man in front of me. That was until I died from my shit fiancee who killed me out of boredom. Cries of the vivid black screen that only showed my face. Suddenly, blacking out through the various scenes my eyes opened again.

Strange air that was slightly hard to breathe in, voices that flashed my mind.

“Ughh…” I grunt.

My eyes were barely open, as I lifted myself up into a sitting position. I crept out of the bed, while my feet hit unfamiliar floorboards. The wind and air felt unfamiliar, the room was unfamiliar, I felt…. Lost…

“I thought I died? Is this heaven” while I blankly stared at the room from top to bottom, I noticed a bright light shining brightly past my eyes. It reflected off a mirror, as I walked in front  of it to see myself. I felt rather small, and I understood why once I stepped into the light.

“Aaaaahh!” I screamed.

Loud footsteps came charging in, banging on the door a deep concerned voice yelled.

“Miss are you alright?!”

I grappled tightly onto my hair, almost pulling it out. Retracing my steps from when I first opened my eyes to when I last closed them. While I had my silent mental breakdown I took another look into the mirror.

“Who the hell is this?” I couldn't believe my eyes.

The young girl who stood in the mirror was like a beautiful fantasy protagonist I used to write about. To give an easy few word summary, I resembled an arctic fox with blue eyes. Yes, I, me.

“Nevada!” A lady yelled.

She sounded angry, but concerned. I heard the footsteps of the voice fade, when they became louder as if she was charging towards.

“What the hell?” I guessed the name of this young girl was Nevada, and the lady screaming is her mother? Well just in a matter of seconds the lady stormed through the door.

“Nevada my baby! Oh my dear gods if you were hurt again your mother would haunt me dead!” She chuckled concernedly.

“You are?” I asked.

“The doctors said you'd have some head issues and suffer some great memory lost. But i didn't think you’d forget your aunty” She placed her hand on my head side.

“My darling your classes are starting soon, I was told your issues of head anatomy wouldn't affect your class. They’ve been warned, but I've also heard you've been doing a horrible effort in educational learning.” She sighed, seemingly staring blankly at my confused expression.

“Me? Doing a horrible effort?” I chuckled thinking she was joking, unaware I wasn't a genius like in my old life.

“Yes you, who else? You've never put your mind to anything other than boys, you're so timid minded and a bloating idiot” She said, flicking my head.

“I'm lost” I say.

“Then let me explain, Nevada Rose Garstina. You suck at proper etiquettes, any etiquettes at all really. You can't dance, you don't know anything about history, psychology and the list goes on. The only thing you seem to be good at is ditching classes, and gossiping about wedded men and their wives to get rid of their future. You're an eleven year old evil brat, I call my niece. Who i obviously love and take care of, or your dead mother would kill me. Theoretically” She kisses my forehead, while she folds the dresses placed on the ground.

“A large summary, very… straightforward…” I didn't expect to be introduced to the newly found world of  mine like that, very unexpected.

“And you?” I ask.

She turns, and smiles faintly. She snickers a bit while picking up the clothes off the floor.

“I'm your aunt Franca Rose Garstina. I'm a noble and a well respected lady. I'm married to the love of my life, James Loute Reyus. He's a noble who could have succeeded in his name as a high noble. But he did what he wanted and became a teacher against his family's consent , it just drew me in how, how do you say…”

“Ballsy he was?” i ask again.

“What?” she answers back.

“Ballsy, you know. A guy with big balls, and huge guts” She looked at me with a confused disgusted face, while I blandly acted like it was normal.

“Nevada! That's disgusting” she yells, sighing seconds later.

“Well you have your melodramatic love story i'm not interested in, and can you tell me where we are? Beside this- i mean me, being an idiot” looking around, dancing my eyes through the tall windows and walls.

“You know it honestly sounds like I'm talking to a stranger, you sound old yet never more immature” she laughs, as she sits me down on a sofa.

“Let's make this simple, your parents are both dead. We are currently living in the imperial capital, your eleven years old and have class sessions to arrive in approximately seven minutes. And if you dont attend them in five minutes, I'll have you clean this manshin top to bottom” she kisses my forehead again, and cuddles me goodbye.

“Wait manshin?!” Before I could comprehend what she just said, the doors opened.

“Miss you have five minutes to get ready” the maids were shivering, bruises all over them. What did this girl do to them?

“Alright…” I stared off into the unknown skys, my response shocked them.

“Well?” They quickly came over to me, charging me.

“Wait!! Get off me, what the hell are you doing?!” They stopped, stepping back.

“We’re simply getting you ready, I'm sorry Miss forgive us if we offended you.We beg of you to punish us after you're dressed” I was completely speechless, and quite traumatised.

“Are you serious, what timeline is this ancient age? Millions of years have passed, who needs maids anymore?” I jokingly laugh. The seriously confused look on their faces sends shivers through my spine.

“Miss, the ancient ages happened about fifty years ago. Since then, magic knowledge has evolved.” I pause, there it is… her answer wasn't pleasant, and it was certainly not what i was expecting to hear.

“Magic? Like swishy colorful things that come out of your hand and explode?” Not the best explanation, they were even more confused.

“How to explain...Magic, like spells. Grimoires, the books of magic? Like magic, magic? Like, ughh you get it.” Their faces made the expression of someone who doesn't get it.

“You get it right?” I ask again.

“Huh, oh yeah, yes, of course you miss your completely right” they immediately answer with agreement, but their faces are telling me they're talking to an idiot.

“Oh… alright… So how do I learn about this magic?” They look at eachother, and awkwardly smile.
