Metanoia Book 1

Chapter 6. The Two Intruders

The clock hit 6 am when both Rosemary and Dreamy came down and joined the two others. Both were surprised to see Moon up earlier than them but then thought that Yalanna probably woke her up or something. "Good morning you two I hope you slept well!" Yalanna said and clapped her hand when she noticed the two other members. Dreamy waved her hand to say hello, probably still half asleep, which from this point hasn't surprised Moonlight anymore, since Dreamy normally slept a lot when she could find the time for it.

"Morning to you two as well, I'm surprised to see you up this early Moon," Rosemary said with a smile and Moon gave a smile back in return before nodding her head. She enjoyed her time with Yalanna indeed. "My, my look at the time, I'll go get the food ready, while you three can just be here and get comfortable," said Yalanna getting up from her seat and walking toward a door probably to the kitchen. There was quiet for a little while, Dreamy was still fighting the urge to fall asleep but probably gave up. Hard to say since her eyes seemed to be closed all the time.

Rosemary noticed and shook her head, and then turned her attention to Moon "I see you and Yalanna are getting along quite well, I'm happy to see that" she said with a smile. "Yeah, we talked for a pretty long time this morning and I got to learn so much about her, she's a very nice person," Moon replied. Rosemary nodded her head. Rosemary had known Yalanna for a year now and she has always been a very happy and accepting person, always ready to talk about something.

A short moment later, Yalanna came back with some wooden plates flying right behind her. With a single snap with her finger and the plates landed on the table right in front of the three assassins. Moon looked amazed on the plate, while Rosemary just tried to wake Dreamy up from her slumber. "Today's breakfast for you is my homemade bread with butter from our own shop and lastly some fruit and berries grown by our own farms. Enjoy the food!" Yalanna announced. The three gave their thanks for the food and ate.

When they all finished they thanked again for the food and complimented on how good it was, which only made Yalanna even happier. They all helped clean and were getting ready to leave again. Moon was packing the last things in her room until a knock was heard "come in" she replied, and the door opened and revealed Yalanna with a small box. Moon was a bit confused but smiled "Oh Yalanna, is there something I can help you with?" Moon asked, Yalanna shook her hand and moved toward Moon, she reached out and gave the box to her. Moon looked confused at the box and took it anyway. "It's a little gift from me before you leave since you guys are probably going back to the camp after" Yalanna said, giving a small smile. Moon looked a little surprised and looked at the box and opened it. It was a little dreamcatcher like the one that was hanging in her room. This one was just more colorful. "I remember you said you liked colors so I made it as colorful as possible! And of course, it also has the same magic as the one in here!" she said with green clovers in both of her eyes.

Moon, who was lost for words, did the only thing she could think of. She gave Yalanna a hug. Yalanna did not hesitate to hug back. "Thank you so much, I love it! I will for sure keep it safe and treasure it" Moon said and hugged a little tighter. Yalanna smiled and rubbed Moons back. "Please be safe out there, always believe in miracles," Yalanna said and let go of the hug.

...

They were now all standing outside of the giant tree that was placed in the middle of Fel Serin, also known as The Garden Tree. They said their farewell to Yalanna who wished them all luck. And off they went towards the last location the intruders were last seen.

...

The walk didn't take long before they heard a scream nearby, which alarmed the three. Moon was getting more nervous now that the situation is gonna get real and they would have to fight. Dreamy was already getting her bombs ready while Rosemary got turned and looked at both of them. "Okay, get ready guys this gonna get serious now, we don't know about their abilities so always keep your guards up okay?" Rosemary said and both Dreamy and Moon nodded their heads. Moon took out her bow and held it close to her chest, trying to calm herself down.
