The Weak And Helpless (Yona of the dawn)

Make Over

I just wanted to tell all my readers and any followers who read this book thank you for the 200 votes! Your support means so much to me and I can't express how thankful I am! Now I won't ramble about this for five pages, so thank you so much and enjoy!

I clutched Jea-Ha's arm as I looked at the "job" captain Gigan wanted me and Yona to do. "W-We've got to g-g-go down there!" I stutter looking at the steep ledge along the cliff that led to where the plant Captain Gigan wanted us to get.

"This is your last chance to back down." Jea-Ha offered fear rising in my chest as he looked down at me worriedly. My legs trembling. "I'm not giving up." I growl and begin marching toward the ledge. Before I could reach it Yona snatched my arm. "Wait!" She demands as I'm jerked back. She turns to Jea-Ha. "Mays lungs aren't well. Do you mind swooping in and taking May to safety is anything happens?" Yona asked her grip tightening on me.

Jea-Ha looked between me and Yona and nodded. Yona with a sigh of relief let go of my arm and we all headed toward the ledge together. Me and Yona had our backs facing the cliff as we brushed out hands again the cliffs rock wall slowly walking sideways down the narrow path Jea-Ha close behind me as Yona took the led.

As we walked a sudden gust of wind blew I clutched a nearby vine and clung to it. Unfortunately Yona wasn't so luck and stepped back slightly from the force of the wind. Her foot slipped over the ledge. "Yona!" I screamed snatching her hand and pulling her forward. Giving her the moment she needed to regain her balance.

"Thanks, May." She stutters looking over her shoulder at the sea bellow that she had almost fallen into. "Don't look down. Pretend we're only a few feet up in the air." I advised my legs still trembling with every step. Yona began to cry, fear stricken. I need to keep my cool and stay strong. For Yona.

"Yona, you don't need to force yourself. If your afraid, come back. The job the captain gave you is impossible. It would mean you can't fight against Kumji with us, but no one is forcing you to do this! You don't need to put yourself in danger! You too May. You've been through enough. Your only girls." Jea-Ha called as he watched us.

Yona shuck her head no. "Yona!" Jea-Ha protested. "I won't go back...... It's okay. I have to do this simple job. If I don't, I won't be able to face Captain Gigan or Hak the others." Yona try's to reassure. Yona.....

She continued to take trembling steps forward as I followed close behind her. "Yona." Jea-Ha called after still hoping to convince us to come back. "I'm glad I'm here to get the medicine." Yona reassures stopping to talk. "Why?" Jea-Ha asks looking between me and Yona's trembling figures.

"Suppose Hak, Yun, Gija, or Shin-Ah were gravely injured right now. If the senjuso could heal them, I'd do anything to acquire it. Even if it was growing in the middle of a battle field with arrows raining down, I would still go to pick it. When I think of it that way. I can go anywhere." Yona explains starting to walk agin.

I smile at her small speech. "I couldn't have said I better myself." I say forcing my trembling legs forward. "Are you afraid of losing someone?" Jea-Ha asked Yona still noticing her shaking legs as she marched forward. "I fear that more then anything else, I fear seeing someone crying over losing another, too." Yona answers.

"Hey Jea-Ha." I call looking over my shoulder for a slip second to see the dragon looking at us worriedly. "Yes?" He asks. "Are you coming with us?" I asked hopefully. "Huh...Oh.Well, partway..... I'm keeping an eye on you two. Yona asked me to help you if anything happens after all." He explained. Yona looked over her shoulder and smiled as she heard our conversation.

"Thank you." She said turning back around and continuing on. "Just so you know, I won't help you." Jea-Ha informed looking out into the ocean. Way to ruin the moment Jea-Ha! " I know, but having your voice near by is reassuring. Just having you near. I wonder why." Yona sighed wiping away tears.
