Zephyr would whistle, and a taller boy, and a pair of girls now stood with Zephyr.
"They're coming with me to make sure we're safe! They have no tracking devices or anything on them so we're good!"
Zulu would nod, and now with all they could grab that wouldn't weigh them down, and the clothes on their backs. They set off.
After an hour of walking, Yumi asked to take a break, Zephyr looked upset at this and scoffed but the group did stop.
Zulu would sit with the taller boy, Zephyr said just to call him Kinao, something about the name was daunting to Zulu.
"So uh...How was your life before going with us? You look stronger than Zephyr!" Zulu decided to spark up a conversation with Kinao.
"I was trained to be a samurai's apprentice." Kinao had a surprisingly more deep voice, and Zulu thought Zephyr's father's voice was deep.
Kinao glanced at one of the girls, and whispered something In Mandarin, "这位小姐的声音真好听,西风说她叫什么名字?"
(TRANSLATION: "This lady's voice is so nice, what did Xifeng say her name is?")
Xifeng stared at Kinao, and grinned. "她叫祖鲁。"
(Translation: Her name is Zulu)
Xifeng and Mifau were the two girls' names, they both speak fluent Mandarin, as well as Kinao and Zephyr.
Zephyr would be talking to Zulu, about school, supplies, and multiple things but Zulu was beginning to space out Zephyr's voice soon was gone.
"Do you think you'll find her again?" a new voice has rose, and it was all dark, she was in her mind again.
"I don't know.." Zulu mumbled.
"You're not going to be able to find her just sitting here! Hurry up, and carry on!" The voice was her pride on finding Nala, her twin sister who had been missing for two months, she went missing on Valentine's Day.

Zulu stood and told everyone to get up and get ready to continue on, they'll look at The temple of the Oni first. Nala always prayed at this temple, no where else, she had a strict praying routine.
It took nearly all day to get to The Temple of The Oni, once there it was obvious Nala wasn't there but they used the temple as shelter from the current thunder storm.
The group was warned by Zulu who was always praying with Nala about the urban legends, and risky things of the temple.
Tonight was the night was where one of the urban legends could be deemed as true.
