Yona's hands were in Hak's hair as she tried pulling the fainted, him. "Wait! What are you doing princess?" Yoon asked, concerned that Hak might become bald. "If I can't carry him.. Hak can't move." She replied, the innocence practically radiating of her.

Ki-Ja however surprised you all, as he lifted Hak up with his right arm. He carried the thunder beast with ease. "Woah! Ki-ja! That's so cool!" You admired him, envious of how strong he was.

Ki-ja who felt proud at all the compliments, smiled. As he heaved Hak over to the place you were camping today. While you were waking, you occasionally glanced behind you, and saw Yona practically sticking too him, worry etched on her face.

You smirked, oh how happy Hak would be right now. You wrapped your arm around Yona's shoulders, offering her a smile. "Don't worry Yona, he'll be fine. He is the mighty thunder beast after all." She returned your smile, the anxiousness still evident on her face.

"Yes.. Hak is a strong person." She replied, her head facing the ground as you and Kija keenly observed her. "But one day.. I want to protect you and Hak, too." She told you, looking at you. "And even Ki-ja." Quickly adding, she turned her head towards the said man. "Oh, and Yoon!"

"What.. in the world.. is this?" Ki-ja asked afraid, as he glared into the pot of soup that was handed to him. "It's dinner.. what else?" Yoon replied, not even bothering to look at your new comrade. Beside you was Yona, as she rested her head upon your shoulder.

And beside her was Hak, who was still recovering and resting. "Dinner?! These were weeds you picked earlier when we were walking!!" Ki-ja argued, as you patted his back in sympathy. While Yoon and Kija bickered back and forth, you rested your head upon Yona's head that rested on you.

"Tired?" You asked her, as she nodded her head, in response. You took a deep breath, the smell of fire, reminding you of your new life, one which was different. "Yeah. Me too." You mumbled back.

The cold nights often reminded you, how years ago it used to be Yona and You against the world, just the two of you. You were always glad that you were born her twin, and then Hak had joined, it became the three of you against the world. Now it's you, Yona, Yoon, Hak and Ki-ja  against the world.

And this time you were determined to protect the people you cared about. Just when your eyes were about to close and your head was droopy, a large blanket covered you, startling you awake, and alert. Ki-ja offered you an apologetic smile, as you learned that it wasn't a blanket, but in fact his coat.

"Forgive me Princess for startling you. The night is chilly, and you have to keep warm." He told you as you glanced towards Yona who had your overcoat around her, she was fast asleep. The one you gave her when she mumbled about how cold it was. You offered him a smile, remembering how the white dragon had watched you offer her your coat.

"Thank you, Kija! But you'll be cold, and that won't be good!" You told him, proceeding to take of the coat, but before you could Kija gently placed his left hand above yours. "No, princess. I will be alright. I promise." He offered you another one of his heartwarming smiles that sent your heart into shambles, you could barely form words.

"I.. thank you."
