Your sleeping soundly in your bed, until your suddenly woken up by a quick and painful gasp.

As you shoot up from your bed you look over to see Suzian sitting up halfway holding her waist in pain.

You: *rushing over to aid her* Easy Suzian, your'll reopen your wounds.

Suzian: *in pain* L-lee where are we, what happened?

You calm her down and hold her like you did when she got injured.

You: *stroking her head* It's alright, we're in my house in my home village. My mother treated your wounds.

Suzian: Ugh w-what about the bandits, are they all dead?

You can't bring yourself to lie to her, so you her tell everything that happened after she closed her eyes.

Suzian: S-so Greta walked away and said your'll be seeing each other, that can not be good.

You: I don't know much about orcs, but I've heard they hold grudges

Suzian: *relaxing a bit* When I was in that cage, she told me how she's killed over twenty five adventurers.

You sigh a bite.

Suzian: Lee I know we just met and it wasn't a good one, but uh.

You: Yes?

Suzian: This is going to sound rude, but why did you carry me all the way to your village. I mean we  just met?

You think of how to say why and then you speak.

You: It wouldn't have felt right to just leave you there and not even try to help you, I was acting on my own when I went to that outpost in the first place.

Suzian: * a little worried* W-what do you mean?

You: I wanted to go on my first adventure so badly, when I told Captain Levi what my parents planned. He suggested that I  clear out  that outpost.

Suzian: So you weren't expecting them to have a prisoner, were you?

You: N-no but I still decide to deal with them after I freed you, but I got caught.

You suddenly feel like you can't look her in the face anymore so you turn your head and look out your bedroom window. The sky still black as it's the middle of the night.

You suddenly feel Suzian's hand grip your hand in hers.

You: Suzian?

Before you can say anything she presses her lips against your cheek and kisses you.

Suzian: Thank you for being there anyways, my life has been hell  before you arrived at that camp.

You: *blushing* W-why what happened, how'd you end up as their prisoner?

Suzian: I was wandering around for a place to call home, You see I was kicked out of my tribes den.

You: You were kicked out, didn't your parents help you?

Suzian: No my parents passed away when I was young, I've been taking care of myself for years.

You: For years just how old are you?

Suzian: I'm fithteen years old, my parents passed away when I was five.

You listen as she goes on about her life, as she does you feel more and more sad for her.

You: *interrupting her* S-Suzian please you need not say anymore.

Suzian: W-why not?

You: I feel bad for you, how can you live through all that. Losing your parents at such a young age, being thrown out by your tribes elders and then being taken prisoner by a group of bandits to almost be sold as a slave.
