A Simple Tale...
Prologue III-The Scholar

Midnight. The darkness of the room was pushed away from one single area of the cluttered room. Sighing the lone woman leaned back in her chair and turned a page in her book, then leaned forward again to jot down something down in a leather bound book that was empty of words but her own.

Pushing her hair out of her face she blinked her eyes tightly, then rubbed them with a hand.

'Maybe I should go to bed.' Part of her mind spoke, but was interrupted by a loud banging on the front door of the small city house.

Standing she quickly maneuvered her way around the stacks of books and papers that were thrown around the room.

"I'm coming!" She called sweetly even through if anyone else's door had been knocked upon at this hour, the owner would have called the guard.

Unlatching the locks on her door she carefully looked out it at first to see a large shadow of a man standing in the cold winter weather.

"Hello..." she called delicately, almost hoping the big man would not hear her.

"Finally." The man snapped and pushed his way into the house and past the small owner. "It took you long enough to come to the door now go light this room up-" He stopped mid-sentence and she knew why, he had tripped over something, chances are it was a pile of books.

Gasping she raced around the room lighting all the candles and lanterns, not even touching her cherished books.

"Are you all right?" She asked rushing over to him and kneeling, helping him to his feet.

The dark haired man looked up as he stood on his feet again and his eyes promptly widened. "By the gods! You DO have blue hair!"

The small woman blushed and ran a hand over her hair that was cut short unlike most women of the day. "Yes...yes I do." She stuttered out.

He looked her over quickly his black eyes even darker with thought. "Then you are Ami Mizuno?"

She nodded not looking at him.

"Then pack your things, I'm here to take you to the palace, and by the way, my name is Wufei Chang."

She thoughts stopped for a moment, "You're here to what?"
