As the two teenagers walked further along the forest grounds. Red started describing the pearls hideaway. "They're in a tree" she started "But it's very distinctive. It has massive roots twisting around a big, dark hollow and..." Robin interrupted her "I know where that is", he said making Red spin around so fast her hair whipped in the air.

"Suppose...for a moment I do decide to help you" Robin said then continued "And suppose we actually manage to find the pearls. What then?".

Robin interrupted her again, "You know my father's coming after you?", Robin said, making it sound like Red was stupid. "It's just a matter of time that we find the pearls before your father finds me...".

They stopped talking and started getting back to their quest to find the pearls.

Walking and walking. Their legs getting weaker and weaker. Feeling like the journey had gone on for all eternity. "Is Red your real name...or?" Robin managed to say. "Actually...no" she responded in a voice full of mystery. "Well then, what is it?" Robin asked again. "Kara... Kara Celestia Merryweather. But I prefer to be called Red"
"Kara?" He questioned. "That's a beautiful name...May I call you that?"
"Maybe" She said with a smile, "But I might not respond to that..."
