And then Lexx saw him. Legend says that if you fall in love with a Firespitter and you are a Darkcaster like Lexx was, you'd have bad luck, for Darkness and Fire were like Water and lightning, they didn't go good together. Lexx didn't listen to this old wives tale, she didn't "get it" as she liked to say, but, well, let's just say, Lexx didn't get a lot of things, for instance...she didn't "get" why anybody would want to tell the "Why did the chicken cross the road" joke, because it made no sense at all why would a domesticated farm fowl cross a highway besides to commit suicide? Anyway, back to the point. Lexx's jaw dopped and her eyes widened. He was beautiful. Eyes the color of thick, fresh blood flowing from a wound. His hair, tied back into a single tail that reached his lower back, but still sort of spikey on top was the color of fire. Under his right eye was a black hook tattoo. His smile made Lexx's stomach do back flips, as he laughed her spirit soared. His clothes were black, strange for a Firespitter, most of them wore either gray or red, and nobles wore red and gold. The way he spoke with the other clans as if they were all friends made her realize how much she didn't get why there were seperate clans in the first place. She was so busy marveling at him she didn't see the three girls come up to her.
"Well, well, if it isn't the Battle Mage..."
"Done crying yet?"
"Shut up Roxy..." Lexx growled, now she remembered why she hated humans so much, because Roxy was human.
"I heard a rumor that you cry blood, is that true?" Roxy's "goon" as Lexx called them, Valerie asked in her whiney voice,
Lexx clenched her teeth an made her hands into fists looking down at the ground,
'Self control...self control...' She thought, "Leave me alone..."
"Oh, I think she's gonna cry..." Sarafina, her other "goon" piped up,
"Are you gonna cry Lexxi? Do you want your mommy?"
'SELF CONTROL!!!!!! DO NOT HIT HER!!!!' Lexx screamed at herself,
"Go on, cry, let it all out, we understand,"Roxy was going to far. Lexx snapped, claws shot from her finger tips and she drug them across all three girls' faces,
"Shut the ******** up!" She spat, the girls fell backwards in shock, blood seeped out of the newly formed cuts on the faces, they looked up at Lexx,
"What the hell?! You freak! You could've ripped my eyes out!"
Lexx hissed at them and they got up quickly running away,
"You're a freak Silver! That's why they made you a Battle Mage, because you're different!"
Lexx sheathed her claws and hung her head, she looked at her hands, "Am I really that different from everyone else?" Once again, so consumed in her own thoughts she didn't notice another standing in front of her until his hands waved back and forth in front of her face,
"Hello...anyone home?"
"Huh?" Lexx looked up and nearly fell over backwards, it was him.
"Hi..."
"...uh...um...I...hi..."
"You're Lexx, right? The Battle Mage?"
"Yes..." Lexx suddenly was afraid he would tease her about it too, but she smiled at his next words,
"That is so cool, Battle Mages are a lot more powerful and have a lot more sense than those stuck up Summon Mages," He smiled, and Lexx started to laugh, which she reretted. But that changed when he laughed to,
"I'm Klitch Emberheart."
"...Lexx Silver." They shook hands and started to talk.
