Story: Evey has no recollection of where she came from, or where she was born. She remembers as far back as when she was six years old, and had somehow found her way to the home of an old medicine woman. Or rather, the old woman found her. She was found outside the woman's home, collapsed on the ground. There were no injuries on her, but her body had gone through a great amount of stress. When Evey woke up, a few days later; she couldn't remember much other then her name, and the powers she had. The old woman figured, maybe she forgot anything before then for a reason. Maybe there was just something, Evey wanted to block out.

From then, Evey was practically attached to the old woman's hip. She followed her everywhere, and helped her when she went picking herbs and making medicines. Seeing that Evey had a knack for memorizing what the right herbs for things were, and what to mix, the old woman taught her everything she knew. Evey often helped her in making medicines for the people in the town nearby. When Evey was twelve, the old woman passed on, leaving her on her own. She had stayed in the house by herself, continuing the routine she had when the old woman was still alive. She also continued to help the people in town, though they didn't come back as often after the old woman had passed.

During the last year, a vampire had attacked the nearby town, killing off nearly everyone there. When the attack had ended, Evey had gone to help the few surviving, the best she could. Some injuries were so great, regular medicines wouldn't help much, so Evey had used her own healing powers to help them. The town seems pretty much deserted, as the few left often hide within their homes. Evey still lives by herself, in the old woman's old house, out in a wide open area, near the woods. It's peaceful, so she likes it, but being alone all the time, has begun to bore her. She doesn't like the seemingly endless silence.

'Don't walk through the woods at night.' That was what Evey was always told. The few remaining in the town nearby, always said that to her when she visited to check in on them. They would offer to let her stay the night, for fear of her being attacked by a wild animal, or worse, a vampire. But, Evey couldn't be disuaded. She had always gone back to her place, no matter the time, daylight or not. Evey was never easily frightened, so walking through the woods at night, the possibility of being attacked by something, never seemed to sway her decision. Which was quite obvious, since Evey was now en route back to her little home. It was the middle of teh night at least, quite dark, and Evey was indeed, walking through the woods. The small sack she carried with medicines, hung at her shoulder, and her sandals were in her other hand. She liked to walk barefoot in the grass, mud or bugs never bothered her much, so she did this often.

After some minutes, Evey reached the edge of the woods, seeing her little home come into view. The moon was out and bright in the sky, lighting her way. It seemed peaceful out tonight, though there was an odd tension in the air. It was as if somewhere, there was a fight, or something like that going on not too far off. For now, she paid it no mind. If it should get nearer to her, then it would be a problem.

Walking across the wide field, flowers all around, Evey pushed the door open and stepped inside, discarding her shoes to the floor. Hanging the sack on a hook on the wall, Evey changed into something warm to sleep in, as there was a chill in the air. Climbing into her bed, she curled up, listening to a cricket outside playing it's night music, she drifted off to sleep.

Hours later, the sun now rising, its rays shined in through the window, warming over Evey's small body, still curled up under a blanket. Blinking slightly, she opened her eyes, raising her hands to rub the sleep from them. She lay there for a moment longer, enjoying the warmth of the sun, shining on her. Sliding out the bed, Evey changed now, into a light pink dress, the fabric not too heavy and thick (like wool for instance), so she wouldn't be over heated in the sun today. The sack from yesterday, she emptied out onto one of the shelves there, so she could use it to collect more herbs and possibly some fruit to eat. She did not put on her shoes, as she scurried out past the door. The grass was warm and lush beneath her feet, and the flowers seemed all perky and blooming.

Evey started walking through the field, toward the lake that was near and the trees that she knew would have fruit. After a minute or so, she noticed something a little bit aways from where she stood. Running to get closer, she now saw it was a man, collapsed in the grass, and he had been bleeding. Or, was still bleeding some,a s she noticed. Around him, was the blood he'd lost, as it was pooled along the grass and flowers.

Taking a few steps closer, she could see he was still breathing at least. She was only inches away, and had knelt next to him now. Her eyes darted over all the bites and scratches that had been inflicted on his body. I wonder what caused those. Though, she did have a suspicion that it was vampires. Wolves could've done that too, but the bites seemed more human then animal. Though, I guess you could say vampires are animals too. Anyway, Evey could still heal him. Though, there was only so much of it she could heal with her own powers.

With Evey's powers, the greater the wounds, the more energy she needed to use. This would often make her sick, which she found out the hard way. So, for wounds, like what Logan had, she could heal them, moderately. There would still be some of the bites and scratches left, which would have to heal on their own, or she could finish with those at a later time.

The man in front of her, was still unconcious. And, she couldn't move him, being as small as she was and not that strong. Otherwise, she would've brought him inside, and not left him laying in the grass here. Evey raised her hands, holding them over Logan's body. A light blue light began to shine. It seemed to wrap around him, wherever he was wounded. His body would feel warm, as her powers would take effect. The bleeding had stopped, and some of the bites and scratches had closed up and gone, though others still remained.

Evey had brought her arms back, to lay at her sides, shortly before Logan had begun to move and push himself up off from the ground. She had healed enough of the wounds, and had to stop or she would end up making herself sick, and she couldn't stand that. Kneeling there still, she looked down at Logan, seeing his eyes were open, but he looked entirely all too cautious. Not that she could blame him, anybody might look that way, having some stranger standing over their body and all. Remaining silent still, Evey kept her eyes on him, as he pushed himself off the ground, now on his knees. He had backed away a bit, now looking into her own eyes. Evey loved the golden color of his eyes, she had never seen anyone with eyes like that. Smiling a comforting smile, as he seemed almost unsure, like a frightened animal, Evey reached out suddenly. Her hand now at the top of his head, she ruffled his hair lightly, as if petting him. "It's okay, don't be scared."

Evey smiled brightly at Logan, as he seemed to get it, that she wasn't anything dangerous to him, as she knelt there, petting his head. All his actions seemed so canine, it was funny, but Evey thought it was cute. She'd never seen anyone like him, the way he acted, everything about him. She was just too curious about him now.

Watching what Logan would do now, she kept her eyes on him, as he lifted his arm and licked at one of the few wounds remaning. Bringing her hands to her mouth, covering it, she giggled. That just made him seem even more canine like. Once he'd moved his arm back to his side, and spoken now, she nodded. "You're welcome. Just glad you're okay now." At his next question, she blinked curiously, thinking for a moment. Evey didn't really know if you could categorize her power as being magic. Though, it seemed like it was. Also, the question seemed to be asking if she used other kinds of magic as well, which she didn't. Or, if she could, she had no idea. "I don't know about it being magic so much, but my powers are of healing. Past that, there isn't much else I can do, so I'm not really sure."

Seeing Logan smile finally, Evey was glad about it. At least now, he wasn't so guarded and cautious. What he'd said about his maybe not making it, if it weren't for her, "You're lucky you had ended up here, so close to my home then." Otherwise, Evey might not have found him, to help him, if he had ended up collapsing somewhere else. She was curious as to all the wounds that had been inflicted onto his body, and wanted to ask. Though the question would have to wait.

Her eyes were on Logan, and the way he had tilted his head to the side, another doggy-like motion, before he had responded to the comment she made of her powers. Giggling a little, "Trick, ha, I guess. Well it does come in handy, like for yourself, just before." Though, there was the one downside to it, which she'd realized the hard way. She really hadn't thought of it as a trick so much. But, she figured you could call it that. It didn't seem to matter, at least she thought so. Evey kept her attention on Logan, wondering why he was looking around, because it seemed like he was trying to find something. Hearing his next question, cleared up why he had been doing that. So, he was looking around to find her parents. Evey spoke as if they were just having a casual conversation, no emotions had risen when he'd asked her that. Nothing like sadness, or something you'd think would happen as a reaction to someone receiving that question. "I don't have any..." See, she just hadn't thought about it ever. Obviously Evey knew she had parents, at one time or another. But, when the old woman had found her all those years ago, when she was six, Evey couldn't remember anything past that current age. Parents, nothing, her mind had been completley locked up. She didn't know why, and neither did the old woman, so they left that subject alone.

When Logan made that comment of having good guardian angel, Evey had nodded, smiling as she agreed with that. About her healing abilities, "Hm, it is nice. Though, sometimes it doesn't help any." She had mumbled at that last part. There were times when someone was past her healing abilities, and she was sad at being unable to help then. After she had mentioned the fact of having no parents, it was obvious Logan was surprised about it. Evey shook her head at his next question, "No, there is a village nearby...or, near enough. It's past the woods there. Where I stay, is only a short walk from this area we're in now." Most of the time, she didn't mind the fact she was alone. But, sometimes she wished that weren't the case. Still, regardless of that fact, she still kept the sweet smile that was on her face.

As Logan was asking her name, "Oh, I'm Evey. Evey Lucio." Curious as to his name now, "and what about your name??"

Evey hadn't needed to explain what she meant of her abilities not being much affective sometimes, as Logan had understood her meaning shortly after. "Yes, a limit to my abilities...also my own body..." She had been talking about the one draw back with her healing. The fact that if she used it too much at one time in a day, she would end up sick. She smiled at his trying to comfort her about the fact she couldn't always help some people, as he stated at least she could help some, like him. "Yea...you're right. And, i'm glad i could help you." Evey hadn't spoken this much with anybody in a good while. Already she was enjoying his company. Noticing him staring off into another direction, Evey turned her head and looked back to where he was looking. She realized he was looking back at her home, where it was as she said, a short distance from where they currently were. Bringing her attention back to him, she noticed he seemed to be pouting...it almost seemed puppy-like. It made her wonder why he had that look on his face. Not thinking it was that he was worried about her. Now hearing his name, she smiled, "Logan...I like it." She did notice the lack of a last name. Though her own had been an adopted sort of name...The Lucio part anyway. The old woman had said it suited Evey, as it meant 'bringer of light.' The old woman had liked to say that Evey was an angel that had gotten stuck on earth in human form. It as fun to think about.
