The Weak And Helpless (Yona of the dawn)

Important

Things had settled down between Gija and Hak. I had also calmed down myself once I had finished my dinner. With a fork may I add. Everyone stood except for me.

Yun held a map and turned to Gija. "Gija, can you sense the Blue Dragon?" Yun asked. Gija closed his eyes for a moment. Once he reopened them he pointed to his right. "I feel something over there." Gija answered.

Yun sighs looking away from Gija back to the map in his hand. "Yeah, okay. Sorry to bother you." Yun groans. "Does the Blue Dragon have a village like the White Dragon, or does he live alone?" Yun thinks aloud.

Gija looks away from where he was pointing and turns back to Yun who had forgotten about his map. "I'm not sure. According to the information of my compatriots living abroad..... Long ago, the Blue Dragon clan lived secretly in the Earth Tribe's land. However, the Blue Dragon village suddenly disappeared, and the clan went missing." Gija informed.

I shivered. What could of caused a whole clan to go missing and an entire village to disappear. "Disappeared? But the weren't destroyed, right?" Yun demanded unhappy that this hadn't been entirely clear.

"When I close my eyes, I can feel the pulse of the Blue Dragon." Gija offered.
Yun placed a hand to his chin in thought. "Ik-su said the other dragons move around. The Blue Dragon's clan must of moved somewhere. Gija is pointing east-northeast toward the Fire Tribe's land. I'd say there are about six locations where the village might be." Yun concluded.

"Yun, have you been there?" Yona asked. "No, but the largest city after Saika is here." Yun says pointing to a little red building on the map.

Yun slides his finger upwards towards the mountains and starts circling around a blank area under it. "There are merchants roads and aristocratic villas in this area." He continued. I hadn't even realized I had gotten up until me and Yona looked over Yun's shoulder curiously.

"There's only six other places that are infrequently traveled and away from human eyes." Yun explained "Amazing! You really do know everything, Yun." Yona praised patting his head. "Would you stop treating me like a little kid? We're only one year apart." Yun complained. I laughed.

"All right, boys! Tomorrow, we'll start looking for the Blue Dragon! Anyway goodnight." Yun declared starting to become tired. "Goodnight?" Gija repeated horrified. "Wait, here!?" Gija asked. "Goodnight..." Yona muttered sleepily as she crawled on the huge mattress me Yun and her shared and engulfed herself in blankets.

"Wait.." Gija protested. "Shut up, White Snake." Hak demanded teasingly. As he pulled a blanket out of his bag and wrapped it around himself as he laid down against a tree next to our mattress. "What?" Gija mumbled as we all closed our eyes and tried to fall asleep. I then realized that Gija, well Gija didn't have a mattress or a sleeping bag or even a blanket.

I crawled out of my part of the mattress the biggest part and walked over to Gija. "You don't. Have anywhere to sleep do you?" I asked. He nodded still slightly shocked that we slept outside. "Here there's a spot on the mattress for you with a blanket and pillow." I offered.

"What about you!" Gija asked looking horrified at the idea that I had nowhere to sleep. I held a hand out. "I'll be fine. I usually like to sleep up in a tree it's so nice up there with the wind blowing in our face and the sound of nature coming from every angle." I lied.

Gija raised a brow doubtful. I jumped under the tree that Hak leaned against and caught a branch. I pulled myself up in what I opened looked like an effortless manor and lay down on a long, fat branch. Closing my eyes sleepily.

I heard footsteps and opened one eye to see Gija reluctantly slip into the mattress and surround himself in a blanket and sleepily plop his head on a pillow. I sighed in relief. I had expected him to go on and on about how he was unworthy to sleep on the same mattress Yona sleeps on. He must be really tired. I myself might be dead tired tomorrow but at least Gija would be okay.
