Flickers of the past

Shade watched the lights battle each other, he would wait til his summoner would arrive, then he could act. He slowly closed his eyes in silence thinking about the past.

Many years ago, before the fall of Dalen
Jace was a young man, he hid among the crowd, keeping his hood up to hide his identity as he robbed people within the crowd. Slipping by the guards he robbed one of them, "HEY KID!" He turned around and gave them a sly smile before running off, the guards chased after him, "Hey, stop!" Jace ducked and swung jumped through the town, the guards chasing after him. He lost the guards and kept running, he noticed the forest outside of town, hearing the guards behind him he decided to bolt to the woods.
The guards gave up chase once he was in the woods, Jace laughed in his victory, "Idiots. Now let's see what we got." He began counting coins, 30 gold, should be enough for a month. He stuffed the coins in his bag, getting back on his feet, only to hear music, wonderful but strange music....

Back in the present
Shade opened his eyes, feeling someone approaching him. "What took you so long?"
