I decided to rewrite each chapter to make them look better. But I keep my old comment it's making me laugh. Hope you enjoy it! 

(Alright so here's the next chapter! I know the first chapter is short but I prefer writing small chapters to big ones and turning the chapter into a mess. So I hope you enjoy it! Also, I am French and I am trying to work on my English while I write this fan fiction. I don't know how to write story and which time to use "Present, past"... Tell me in the comment I want to make progress about it, thank you!)

After her introspective conversation, which sometimes seemed to happen when spending too much time alone, Ilsa finally returned to the village. 

She noticed Benji frantically searching for her and when he saw her approaching, a wave of relief washed over him.

"Ilsa! I'm so sorry, we thought you'd left," he said, his guilt evident in his voice.

"It's alright, Benji. I understand, but I'm not leaving, not for now," she replied, a genuine smile on her face as she stood by her decision.

"Thank you for saving me. I'm truly sorry for not trusting you. Thank you," Benji expressed his gratitude.

"Benji, we didn't know each other before. I'll never hold it against you for not trusting me at first. In fact, I found it quite amusing that you were a bit scared," she remarked, fully expecting a playful response from him.

"I wasn't scared, I was impressed," Benji retorted with a grin.

Ilsa chuckled and said, "I'm still quite amazed by it. But enough of that. Let's head back to the others."

As Benji answered, they continued their honest conversation and made their way back to Luther and Ethan.

"Benji, did you find her?" a concerned and confused Ethan asked.

"I leave for one hour, and you're worried I vanished. You guys need to relax or focus on more urgent matters," Ilsa chided, emphasizing the importance of their priorities.

"Can you guys?" Ethan started to ask, but before he could finish, Luther interjected.

"Of course, I don't know about you, Benji, but I'm starting to get hungry," Luther responded.

"Yeah, I was going to say the same thing," Benji added. With that, Luther and Benji left the scene, leaving Ethan and Ilsa alone.

Ethan broke the silence, apologizing sincerely, "I'm sorry, Ilsa. I truly am. It's just that we've never had the chance to talk."

He gently took her hand, wanting to ensure she was alright and present with him.

Ilsa smiled warmly and assured him, "I'm here, Ethan. You don't need to apologize. You made a deal to set me free, so I should be the one thanking you. I'm staying here, with you, whenever you want me to. I'm here."

Okay, very short chapter here. I tried my best to find images of Benji and Ilsa together in a relax mood but I didn't. So this picture is from the Internet "images. jpg". It is the best one I have find. 

Anyway, I hope you like this very short chapter. I loved writing the end! See you guys in the third chapter call "The established life". 

Thank you for reading!
