A Book And A Mirror

Chapter 28 It's Not Safe 3

The next day in the afternoon when the time were like three am maybe, we arrived at a small sand village. It made me think about Naruto Shippuden the sand village where Gaara lives... What nonsense.

"Hey skin and bones"

I turned my head towards Sullivan only to see a clothe being thrown on my face, for me to stumble a few times before taking it away from my nose to breath.

Sir Ogen Laughed a little bit as Sullivan put on a cloak and took a mask with the shape of a crow, and place it on his face. I looked at them in disbelief and after a minute I made an *O* by my mouth when I remembered that this village aren't for humans, in fact this village is for monsters and those kinds.

I took the cloak in my hands in a way so I could wear it and stumbled yet again while wearing it, and eventually after putting it on I lift the hood over my head making it hard for me to see all around me, I feel like I'm an animal being chained to just and just see forward.

"Could you for once not doze off?"

Sullivan said this and went closer towards the village, sir Ogen being carried by a little tree as it grow behind Sullivan whilst I run towards them.

Before we got there I turned my head towards sir Ogen who weren't wearing a cloak.

"Don't worry child this place does have duarfs too so no need to panic"

I didn't panic, but I need to not show that I know everything since... I don't want to carry responsibility more than what I'm carrying now.

"Oh right, I forgot"

"Don't even talk skinny, since they will hear your stupid voice, and instead Ogen you talk if we ever need anything"

"It's Sir Ogen Sullivan, could you respect people for once?"

"Shut it or you will encounter the same fate the bug encountered"

And here I closed my mouth. And we went inside with sir Ogen is help, the place does give you the feeling of being between sand and just sand since everything is made of it anyway.

Even the houses the shops, there were doors made by woods here and there but eventually, everything is from sand. As I were lost by looking at the surroundings, Sullivan were looking around and I felt his grip on my collar from behind as he make me walk beside him behind Sir Ogen.

"So sir big head, don't waste my time and tell me from where do I go and get this part?"

Okay I forgot for a second that I'm not here to have fun, and eventually I turned my eyes and raised my finger pointing at some direction,

"From there, but we still have a long journey till we get there"

Sullivan let go of my hood, and gestured for me to keep on walking beside him. I glanced up at him to see his green and blue eyes from the crow mask is two holes, does get filled with new mix of hope and longing, something I think I'm willing to go far for it to last, he's someone I feel like I saw before, not like reading about him no, I mean like actually seeing him in person, but... Why can't I remember?.

"C'mon kids, we will go from this way and take a rest under a shelter. And then I think sir crazy guy have a plan for what's ahead?"

Sullivan only nodded, and we kept walking. The place is some how not creepy even though that there's so many creepy looking creatures here.

While I were so much into looking and observing, some creature bumped into me making both of us fall on the ground. Thank God though I were grabbing my hood hard so it doesn't fall from over my head, I rubbed my eyes from the little sand that got into them, and wanted to look ahead but Sullivan grabbed my hood from behind yet again and lift me up. And hold me close to him while walking away from what I think is a bunny that can talk and it's big enough to match my hight.

Sullivan whispered in my ears saying while sir Ogen see what had happened to the bunny so we don't attract any unnecessary attention,

"Don't look behind, it can be very much just a move so they could confirm if your a human or not"

I whispered back not wanting for my voice to attract any being,

"and it could be very much nothing but a real bump! What if the bunny got hurt!"

"Shut it since your this stupid"

Wow what a good person indeed. His words earned a eyes role from me.
