Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shishuri sat in front of her. "It's Ryukai, isn't it?"

Shishuri smiled. "It's okay. You like him, don't you?"

Shishuri sighed. "He's gonna give up sooner or later. Holly doesn't like him." She smiled. "Then, he's most likely goigng to turn from second best to best. Don't worry, I know you and Ryukai were meant for each other."

Grey had chose to flee instead of fight after his allies had run off. As he darted toward the castle he wondered why they had left him in such a dangerous situation. The wound on the side of his arm hadn't healed yet. A layer of skin had been cut by the ice arrows launched by the hostile Rogue. He'd noticed that not all the Rogues were dangerous. Some in the castle had shown great fear of the forest dwelling humans. Taking up residence within the town of Rasler. A small village close to the castle but poorly guarded. It had been rumored that Rogues occasionally came to this town for food and supplies. The trees cleared and the entrance to the village came into sight ahead. Turning left after entering the town Grey ran up to a shop that sold medical supplies.

Shopkeeper- ............!!! Aa A Changling!!
Grey- He pointed to the patch on his arm with the kings insignia on it as well as a 4 next to the insignia. I would like some bandages and some ointment for my wound.
Shopkeeper- YESSss OOf coarse, "clears throat". With your soldier twenty percent discount it comes to 16 coins.

Grey handed the merchant the money and in return received the items. His hands were already shaking. The wound was most likely infected by now. He opened the bottle pouring half of the bottle on his wound. It twingled and he growled in pain as he dropped the bottle. That ointment had been more painful that the original arrow that caused the wound. The nearby villagers heard the growl and looked over in his direction.

Villager 1- "Pointing, "it's.........a changling I thought most of them were wiped out"!
Gabronth, squad 3 Commander- Monster what...., "he stopped in mid speech as he saw who it was". Grey....! is that you it's been awhile since I last saw you. He walked over to the lizard patting him on the shoulder. Grey simply watched this person like a hawk as they approached. Last time I saw you you were only a child, how is the king these days?
Grey- He's in good health currently and will remain that way! He was still watching the soldier like a hawk ready to strike him down. What he didn't know was the soldier in front of him was the greatest swordsman in the kings army. Gabronth didn't even have his hand on his sword but he was ready to draw it should the Changling attack. He never let his guard down, not even around friends. Grey picked up the ointment off of the ground then bandaged his wound. The adrenaline had kept him from feeling pain while speaking with the soldier. He had sensed danger and decided to walk away into the forest. He stuffed the items in a side pouch on his belt as he walked back into the forest. If he saw the one that gave him this wound again he wouldn't hesitate to cut them down. A barbarian that was so quick to kill didn't deserve to live in his book. The other Rogues however were find by him as long as they just decided to live in the forest without harming anyone.

"And?" Airiku said, she looked at Shishuri, "How do you know that Ryukai wont just drop it? Maybe he will just like Holly, even though she doesnt like him..." Airikus voice was no more then a wisper.

"NO..." Airiku said angerly, "He already knows...and he told me... that he didnt like me... i am not going back there..." she said.

Airiku looked at Nimino, "Yes i really think he will stay that way... i dont think he will give up on holly.. so i might as well give up on him..." Airiku stood up and walked away from them, they werent making her feel any better, but tons worse.
