~UpRising--Is This How I Died? Reflecting Memories~

A small boy with autumn coloured hair was sitting on a red bed. He was surrounded by losts of toys but he held onto one tightly. This toy was that of a man with autumn coloured hair like the boy. The same purple eyes as the boy but the only diffrence was the man's cloth skin was white and on one side of his head he had a elf crossed with a horn with a small halo circling it. On the doll's back was one single bat wing.
" Your name... " the boy said, smiling down at the doll. " Is Kreaure, and I am Hugo, your master "
Hugo's smile widened. " And Kreaure, all these toys are your friends. Understand? " as he spoke Hugo lifted up the doll and turned it around as though letting it see all the other toys.

Suddenly Hugo's bedroom door opened and his mother was standing there. She had autumn coloured hair just like Hugo but her eyes where green. " Hugo, there you are " she said, smiling down. " Oh, you have a new toy...what's her name? " she asked, bending down to look at the doll in her child's small hands.
Hugo shooked his head. " He is a he, mum...and he's called Kreaure! " the boy beamed proudly at the name.
His mother smiled before kissing the top of Hugo's head. " Well, how about you are Kreaure come with me to the village? I need to buy a few things and I want a little company "
Hugo looked up at his mother, annoyed. " Haha, funny mum! I know I am short but you don't need to say my company is little... "
His mother laughed and pulled Hugo into a hug. " Oh Hugo, I didn't mean it like that! "

Hugo and his mother left the house. Hugo clutching Kreaure in one hand and his mother's hand in the other.
His mother was carrying a basket and as they walked through the market she bought items along the way.
The two stopped and sat on a bench, his mother pulling out a apple and offering it to Hugo.
Hugo took the apple and began eating it as his mother began talking.
" I'm going to be busy later today, I have a few customers wanting spells... " his mother said.
Hugo nodded, his mother was a witch and made spells for peoples, but she was a good witch and well known in the village. She was usually requested to be present at a mother giving birth and to cast spells to help give birth to a beautiful child and keep the mother alive.
His mother sighed before a man with brown hair walked over. The man had blue eyes and he kissed Hugo's nose before kissing his mother on the lips.
The man was Hugo's father. Hugo smiled up at his dad.
" Hello Hugo and...Sabrel " His father looked at his mother more then Hugo. Hugo was used to being half-ignored by his father.
He knew full well his father never wanted a child and considered Hugo as an accident. Hugo supposed that was true because he found out at a very young age he was not born normally, that his mother accidentally cast a spell which created Hugo...his mother called him a person 'born from magic'..

Sabrel, Hugo's mother, sighed. " Oh, what are you doing? Haven't you got work? " she asked.
Ronay, Hugo's father, shook his head. " No, finished earily "
Sabrel smiled. " Could you then take care of Hugo while I work? "
At that Ronay frowned. " I'm sorry Sabrel...I said I would meet up with some friends at the bar " he lied, recieving a dirty look from Sabrel. " The boy can play at the lake for a bit " he suggested.
Sabrel looked at her child. " Would you be ok with that Hugo? " Hugo nodded.
" There! It's settled! Why don't you run along now Hugo? Go to the lake and play with you girlie doll "
Hugo frowned. " Kreaure is a guy and he isn't girlie! He's a demon! " he replied before running off before his father could spank him for replying back.

Hugo wondered around for a bit before arriving at the lake. It was a bit hidden due to it being surrounded by lots of trees, bushes and overgrown plants.
Hugo arrived and sat near the edge of the lake. The lake was pure water and your could see the bottom easily.
His mother had told Hugo that this lake had 'never seen death' which is why it's water's where so pure and clean. Because it had never seen one of the greatest sadnesses.
Hugo smiled at the lake and felt calm as he hugged Kreaure doll.
Hugo would of swam in the lake but he didn't know how to swim like most kids in the village.

He sighed and looked down at his Kreaure doll and smiled. " Maybe I should try to learn to swim...and finally have dad notice me " he suggested to the doll, but recieved no answer.
" Yeah...I'll do that...besides...the lake's edge must be shallow! "

Hugo stood up and took a few steps closer to the lake. He peered in and assumed the water must go up to his waist on the shallow eyes. This is when I might add that water can make something look shallower then it actually is.

The boy paused. " I've seen other's swim...it can't be that hard... "
Hugo began putting one foot into the warm-ish water. But to his surprise his foot could not find the bottom. Before he could take his foot out Hugo slipped and fell inside the clear water.
His eyes where wide in panic as he let go off his doll in attempt to swim to the surface, which was getting further and further away.
He let out a silent scream which caused water to enter his lungs.
I...need...to breath! He thought as he struggled to swim, he couldn't move and was a dead weight at the bottom of the deep lake.

Two days past before a search party was sent out to find the missing boy. Sabrel the good witch had refused to come out of the house for many days after the village search party told her they did not find her son...but only his doll.

Since then the water's of the lake had turned muddy and black, it's surface no longer beautiful but now looking like a swamp.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The demon opened his eyes and shook his head, his autumn hair swinging around. " Damn...had that dream again... " he muttered as his purple, cat like eyes scanning the rocky land he lived in. The land had rocks randomly on fire and distant screams could he heard.
Kreaure sighed and stood up. " Why do I keep having that dream? " he muttered, rubbing his pale have with a hand.
His single bat wing stretched to stop feeling numb and Kreaure's horn like elf ear twitched. " Well... " he smiled, showing pointed teeth. " Time to get to work... "
