Sanctuary

I woke up in a small cottage. I cringed in pain as I sat up but I noticed that my wounds had been bandaged. I stumbled slowly to the door and was nearly blinded by daylight as I opened it. What I saw was truly breathtaking. If I was asked to describe the garden of Eden this would be it. There were beautiful trees all around and a large waterfall that turned into a small stream. What was slightly eerie though was the lack of animals. No birds or anything.

girl:"You really shouldn't be moving around your not fully healed."

I heard this from behind me and nearly jumped. When I turned around I saw a girl that looked around my age with light green hair that fell past her shoulders.

R: who are you and where the Hell am I?!

as you can imagine I wasn't in the best of moods. Betrayal seems to be quite the downer.

S: This place is known as Sanctuary and I am Sanctuary.

At my look of confusion she continued.

S: sanctuary is not a part of your dimension. It is its own dimension. It is my domain.

R; what do I call you then?

S: you may call me Sagari.

(Which she later informed me means sanctuary)

R: okay Sagari how did I get here?

S: I brought you here.

R: not that I'm not thankful you saved me but why?

S: because I see your potential and I couldn't simply let you die. I've brought you here to talk to you about a proposition.

R: a proposition?

S: yes I would like to train you. To be to me as the proxies are to what you call slenderman.

R: so basically your servant...

S: not exactly I will not take your will or make you do anything you don't want to. But I can grant you powers like the other fears do their servants.

R: is that what you are then? A fear? If that's the case I want nothing to do with you.

S: I am not one of those monsters you call a fear. I simply am an entity that wants this war to end.

R: why?

S: I have my reasons. These reasons are not important to you. Just know that I want these fears gone. If you accept I can give you strength. Strength that would rival that of Revenants.

R: you said powers. Powers like what?

S: for example I could give you the power to free people of HIS influence. I also noticed that he had marked you I could also take care of that for you.

R: I thought it was impossible to free people of HIS influence.

S: well this power is limited. It won't be possible for everyone. Some are simply too far gone.

R: why me though? Why bring me out of everyone else?

S: I only bring those here who have the potential to end this.

R: so I will end this?

S: I did not say that. I said you had the potential not that you would. You may very well have a awful bloody end. But I can guarantee that with the strength I give you you have a much better chance of avoiding such an end.

R: but there are much better choices for this. Why not echo, or Raggedy? There much more qualified for this.

S: your stronger than you give yourself credit for Roy. They have chosen their own path. This path is open to you Roy. But will you take it?

I took about an hour to truly just sit down and think. The power to free proxies? Though quite limited would be very helpful. I went back to her and told her I accepted. She walked forward and touched my forehead. My mind went blank for a few seconds before HIS song went quiet. She said to get rested that training would start tomorrow and that I would have to be rested.

That night I got the first true full nights sleep that I had had In a long time. When I awoke I felt truly rested. I walked outside only for a wooden sword to be thrown at me. I looked up to see Sagari with a sword. With a simple get ready she gave me one of the most brutal beatings of my life. We've trained a different weapon every day, we even went hand to hand one day. Everyday she has beaten me but I can feel myself getting stronger. I still have another week or so in sanctuary but then I leave and possibly join up with Strider.

Well she's calling for me to come outside. Well here we go again.
