(Lucy)

Patting around to see Ian leaning to a tree looking at the clouds, lost in thought. She wondered if is her prophecy or the interview shock him the most; his arms swinging around his head as he is listening to something. Seeing him like this is....familiar, clapping her hands together to see this new world right now, she cannot waste time. Walking towards him to talk about the world; only found him sleeping this time while leaning on the tree. She could tell that he is sleeping by his steady breathing, and chest moving upwards and downwards slowly.

He is handsome even though he is far away, Kristin wasn't even kidding that Ian is handsome, he really is especially sleeping. Unconsciously, she touch his arms, feeling every muscle and scars he has underneath the long red jacket he wears; feeling his chest to gaze through the scars he also has in those abs. Her fingers tingle a little bit; she could feel her cheeks burning just by touching him. I never have been this close to someone like this. It's been 12 years ever since I was separated away from my family. Never again she will be in a life of loneliness and obscurity. That's a vow she will never break.

Despite her touch, Ian is still not awake. Well, that is a good thing for her, now she has a perfect view for his face up close. If she has to honest, he has a face of a dashing prince from a fairy tale novel. He has a strong jawline, full lips, smooth skin and that eyepatch he wears. Kristin told her while on the subway train he has no idea why he wears that eyepatch even though he has awaken his dragon king powers a year ago. The only who knows this is his dragon mount who is  also his godfather, the king of the chaos dragons.

Leaning closer to his face trying to see his other eye only for her hand to be grabbed by Ian who is wide wake. Lucy back away to see him awake fast made her heart pound even more. "It's just like the last time," she mumbles. Ian squeezed her gently as possible to get her attention. "Last time? Are you the girl I bumped into earlier," Ian asked. Lucy jumped a little bit, but she nodded. How does he know that the girl was her? He must've been perceptive, even though he has one of his eyes covered by an eyepatch.

Ian scoffed, letting her hand go, "about time you tell me Lucy." She tightened her lips, "whatever let's get in my car." Arching her brow a little bit to hear about this car, this strange new world is something else entirely and futuristic than the land of Greece where horses and carriages are the main ways of transportation. Walking towards a strange black thing with wheels she wondered if this car will damage nature. The thing just lights up, Ian gesture her to go in. Curious, she follow and sit down the new chair, it's so comfy and strong than the grass bed that she always sleeps in the forest before she meets Ian and his friends.

Looking at the strange vines attached to the car, told and heard by the refugees a seatbelt. Lucy puts the thing on, Ian starts the car on. Jumping up and nearly banging to the roof. "Easy, I just started it. You never been a car have you?" Nodding continuously to see Ian chuckle a little.

Pouting to see him chuckles a little bit, the car zooms through the streets to Victoria Grace while wondering if this city has hold more knowledge about the culture and history of Hope Redfield far more than the stories, books or even legends ever told before the wall. Will this city accept Lucy? Only she knows what could this city can bring her in store. Little does she know, this revelation about creatures cause a revolution the lies and deception about the Campbell court in the near future.
