League of Legends FanFic: Ahri's true colours

I often wondered what true feelings were like... I always wondered why
humans prided on their feelings and how some never felt anything when
they killed each other. Those lifeless eyes...

I was originally a silver fox that feasted off the flesh of weaker animals
Until...Well let's just say I suddenly wanted to become human. All those
strange but interesting rituals humans would perform every day and night.
I saw people fighting straw figures and people that would train their
bodies to toughen up and believe me, I've seen some interesting people.
Anyway, Enough about myself. I believe I have taken up much of your time
going on about senseless chatter on my old life. It's kind of funny because
this is a letter to him who I loved from the moment we met... I'm writing
to you now Samuel, I want to remind you of all the happy moments and memories
we shared... If it weren't for you well then, I suppose I would be a new
rug for your blood thirsty brother.

Samuel? Do you remember how we first met? I remember it as if it happened
yesterday... Well here goes...

"Sam! Look what I caught! It's probably the damn beast that's been eating
our chickens!" An eager and excited voice called out.
"What?" A curious voice comes out of the barn nearby.
"Over here Sam!" The eager voice said loudly.
"Matt! What on earth have you done to the poor animal!" The tall figure
said angrily.
"Sam! This is the beast that is probably eating our chickens! I'm going
to perhaps make a rug out of this for our floor or perhaps a new coat
for mother. Which do you think is more appealing?" Matt said completely
missing Sam's point.
"Don't do that! You have no idea if this fox has been killing our
chickens or not!" Sam said angrily.
"Sam! Calm down, I'll make sure it's quick and painless..." Matt said casually.
"Matt! You don't understand I-"
"Didn't you know dad made this trap and specifically told me to absolutely
slaughter whatever got caught in it? Even if it was a butterfly." Matt
said over Sam's voice.
"What!? But... Why would HE of all people say that?" Sam queried.
"I don't know, He said something about being sick of all our chickens
dying on us. Besides, It IS going to be winter soon and that's when
all the shops close. Meaning: We must survive on chickens because we have
no other ways of getting our food!" Matt said matter of fact like.
"Fine, Just do it later... We have to go get those groceries from the shops
right now anyway." Sam said staring at me in the eyes.

I can honestly say that I had never been so afraid in my entire life, I was
just wandering by and stupidly I got caught in that damn trap your father set.
But Samuel, The first time you looked me in the eyes I didn't feel so afraid
any longer... I felt a sense of comfort... I can't really explain my feelings
well since I never really felt them before. I only realized them not so long
ago.

I slept in that cage for the night. Hungry and cold. When it just seemed
that the moon had finally hit the center of the sky I saw a light turn on.
And then I heard footsteps. I was afraid because I thought it was your beastly
brother coming to send me to my death but no, It wasn't Matt or your parents...
It was you who saved my life that night.
"You poor animal, I won't let my brother take another animal's life." Sam whispered.
And so you opened the cage that was my prison. In return I didn't ravage your
body or harm you instead, I licked your hand and left.

Well Samuel, Have you missed me? Did you ever think about me? I hope you do because
I know I do all the damn time... It just so happens is that later on after my encounter
with you I met a strange scientist of the name "Zilean" Apparently he could move time forward and change things that happen in the future. Well what Zilean did to me was
probably a bit of a cheat. I asked him to make me human gradually each day. I wanted to
formally thank you Samuel But most of all I wanted to meet you and get to know you.

A few months later I had discovered different kinds of ways for me hide my Fox-Form.
I was quite glad with the progress I had made. Now I just needed to some how meet you
again. Well even though I was human I still had all my fox senses which made everything
a whole lot easier.

A whiles later I arrived at your house, I hope you didn't forget everything we did together when I was around... We had so much fun.

I arrived at the Retsof house. Your house Samuel. Anyway here is how we first
met when I was in Human-Form.

"Hello, How may I help you?" Sam asked once he opened the door.
"H-hello Sa- I mean, Hello." I responded nervously. Sam was a tall adolescent
with short brown hair and brown eyes. He wore a black shirt with a bunch of happy
animals and linen shorts that were a creamy colour. His shoes were a mix of blues.
What I wore was a short dress that had white and red colours mixed together. My shoes
were flat and also red and white.
"Um, You seem new in town. What's your name?" Sam asked me curiously.
"Oh, my name is Ahri." I said smiling gracefully.
"Nice, Got a last name?" Sam queried.
"O-o A last name? Well er... I am... An orphan so I don't have a last name." I said awkwardly.
"Oh dear, Come inside. You're probably one of those orphans that don't have anywhere to go." Sam said inviting me inside.
"Oh, Thank you..." I said a little surprised.
"Just sit over there on the couch while I discuss something with my father, I won't be long."
And there I was, Sitting on a leather couch in your house Samuel. I couldn't believe it.
Thanks to my hearing from Fox-Form I could listen to everything you and your father were saying...

"She's an orphan we should take her in." Sam said pleadingly.
"Well, It may be a bit hard but we can try. Just remember not to get too attached Sam." Sam's Father said commandingly.
"What? What are you getting at Father?" Sam said sounding a little offended.
"Well, It's just that... You have seemed really out of hand lately, I don't know, Just do as I say and she can stay." Sam's father said calmly.
"Yes father." Sam said sounding a little disappointed.

Samuel, Remember our first task together after a week? I do... It still haunts me to this day...

"Oh look who it is, Samuel and his girlfriend!" Said a taunting voice.
"Are they already going out? How long has it been?" Said another voice.
"Things seem to be going smoothly between them, Haha!" A third voice said.
"Wh-who are they Sam?" I said a little afraid.
"Well I am Garen De La Demacia!" Garen said
"I am Garen's younger sister Luxanna!" Said a high pitched voice.
"And I am Jarvan Aicamed!" Jarvan claimed.
"Well we shall be on our way then, Have a good day boys and girl." Samuel said dismissively.
Well, As you may remember Sam, Being passive in this world doesn't really work does it?
Remember the first blow you took to the face from Garen? Well after that... Things weren't pretty...

Sam fell to the ground. Sam was a pretty bulk guy but Garen got a surprise hit on him.
Blood came out of Sam's mouth in little dots on the grass.
As I saw the blood on the ground my blood began to boil, The Fox inside me had awakened... I couldn't let my own get beat down by a bunch of thugs... I couldn't help it, My tails came out and so did my ears... My whiskers were the last to spring out. It was a good thing you were unconscious at the time Sam, otherwise my true form would have frightened you a great deal.
"You will regret ever doing this to him..." Were my only words to the thugs...
3 orbs of blue fire hit each person then evaporated. That was just enough to knock them down for a while.
I carried Sam's limp body back to what I called home in those days... I reported what happened to Sam's father. Infuriated he was and so he sent Matthew down to their families explaining what happened. What was I doing this whole time? Well since there were no nurses or doctors around and Sam's mother was out for a better half of the day I decided it was up to me to nurse you back to health Sam.

Alright well after a few joyous months of family togetherness I start actually feeling like an actual part of the family... But when your mother died Sam you became distant and then you began to get a little out of hand... Then your father said you didn't obey his rule so I couldn't with you anymore which was very sad... So now I'm writing to you and I'm asking how have you been? Are you still at home? What's been going on? I'm fine and I found a nice place to stay at for a while... Just in case if you're ever interested you can come see me at 1598 Stithlyn Apartments. It's a few blocks away from where you live so it shouldn't be TOO hard coming to visit once in a while... I hope that you realize all the happy memories and moments we have shared and I hope that you aren't disappointed that I turned out to be the Fox you once saved. But one last thing Samuel, I don't know what feelings are I don't know when I experience which because I've never had any real experiences with them before but I do know what love is.

-Sincerely Ahri


After a week of the letter being delivered.

I woke up how I always do, All bed ridden and ragged. My long black hair all knotty. I spent a long time on that letter, I hope Sam will come... But I think I secretly know he isn't going to show anytime soon. I wish I could have spent more time with Sam, He was so interesting and fun to be around... My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of knocking...
Hmm? What could that be? I can't believe I completely missed the ambient sounds... I must be losing my touch.

I opened the door and almost fell over.
"I read your letter." Was all Sam could say.
"Are you disappointed?" I asked Sam a little nervous again.
Whenever I was around Sam I couldn't control my feelings, I just knew that I absolutely turned into wobbly jelly when I was around him...
"I... I just don't know what to say..." Sam said with a smile forming on his face.
"You don't need to say anything." I said and some how I knew exactly what Sam needed.
I wrapped my arms around Sam. At first he seemed to be unresponsive but then his arms moved. His hands wrapped around my head. I lifted my head and stared into Sam's eyes the same way we did the very first time we met. Sam pushed my head forward and our lips met. Sam wasn't unresponsive this time... He kissed me back and when I kissed him... I noticed my Fox ears pop out and then my whiskers come out. Atleast whenever I became wobbly Jelly
I always knew there would be someone there to catch me

Sam.
