Ficool

Chapter 1 - Start

 Everything began with three best friends.

No—don't get it twisted.

This isn't just a story of friendship.

This... is the beginning of destiny.

They lived in a place called Galaxy.

Galaxy? Never heard of it?

Yeah… fair question.

Galaxy was a magical realm made of four clans:

🔥 Fire – the strongest, the most dangerous.

💧 Water – known as the "Moons," cold and mysterious.

🌬️ Wind – always moving, always free.

🪨 Earth – quiet, but unshakable.

Once upon a time, these clans were sworn enemies.

But something happened…

Something that forced them to make peace—for the sake of survival.

And right then...

the story of three best friends began.

A girl and two boys:

Karina, Hyunjin, Jeongin.

And if you ever want to understand my story...

You need to understand theirs.

> "Are you sure you can help me escape?"

💬 "Of course. This isn't our first time, remember? But this time... it's different. This time, it's forever."

"You always save me... but they always find me again."

💬 "Let them. You're not going back this time."

💬 + "He's right. You don't belong there anymore."

"Okay… I'll pack my things. Meet me at 2 AM."

✦ [2 AM]

> I was waiting for those two idiots when I heard tapping at the window.

Only Jeongin knocks that recklessly.

I opened it.

💬 "Peter Pan's here for Wendy! Hello, runaway queen."

"Shut up…"

💬 + "Hurry. Let's go. Give me your bag."

"Take it… take me too, I'm coming!"

💬 + "Jump!"

> I jumped—straight into Hyunjin's arms.

Embarrassed, I pulled away immediately.

> We were sneaking along the wall when—

the dog started barking.

> Perfect. Just great.

We ran.

No thinking. Just running.

The dog was getting closer...

But right before it could reach us, a magical shield appeared.

We had no idea who cast it—

But thank you, whoever you were.

> Hyunjin took me to his house.

His mom greeted me with open arms.

She was kind… too kind.

Like a real mother.

Something I'd never had.

> She even had a bed ready for me.

A wardrobe, too.

> When I opened it… I froze.

Full of clothes.

For me.

Me—who wasn't even supposed to be here.

> Hyunjin fell asleep right away.

But me?

I sat by the window.

Couldn't sleep.

> The nightmares… they always follow me.

> I hugged my knees and stared at the full moon.

Maybe I was like a wolf—

always awake, always craving moonlight.

> And as I stared...

I drifted off.

---

> I woke up to someone screaming.

> My stepmother.

> "Get up! We have to look good tonight. Don't ruin our image!"

> No... not again.

> "Who do you think I am? I won't let you use me anymore. I'll tell them what you do for money!"

> SLAP

> "You're just a doll. A fake. Say one more word, and I'll silence you forever."

> "Fake? Without me, you couldn't even say your daughter's name—"

> She's a witch.

A dark one.

> In a blink...

She took my voice.

Locked me in a room.

> Only tears... and fear...

---

> But suddenly—

I woke up, gasping.

> Back at Hyunjin's.

By the window.

> "Nightmare... the usual one."

> 💬 "Don't worry. She can't touch you now. Come here…"

> I crawled into his arms.

That place...

felt safe.

A feeling I never had with anyone.

And there, in his arms…

I finally fell asleep.
