Jessica's POV

I got back to the ship alright. Honestly, it was worse when I showed up to the ship alone. Those worry warts had to have me knock some sense into them before I could explain the situation.

"I couldn't think of another way to keep them away from Kumuji. It was better anyway. There was no way to ensure Yona would have gotten away, and Yoon has the firework."

Hak stared at me, "How do I know you didn't just leave them?"

I growled, "If that was the case, what would be the point to coming back to the boat?"

His expression relaxed and looked a little bit regretful, "I'm sorry. I'm just so-"

"Worried. I know, Lover boy," my comment got a few snickers. "And besides, I've already spoke to Yoon. He already knew I would step in if it meant keeping them away from Kumuji." He sighed, but nodded. I looked around at the lot of them, "You all need some sleep. How are you going to save Yona without any energy?"

~~>.<~~

Everyone was gathered on the ship, ready for the night's events. The guys were teasing each other because of how worried they were for Yona and Yoon. That is, until Shin-ah spoke up signaling the movement of Kumuji's ships.

"Alright! Let's go get them!" Captain yelled. She was answered with a lot of cheers.

It wasn't too long until we began fighting Kumuji's forces. I was quick, knocking out most of those surrounding me. As we fought, there was a loud bang, "Shin-ah!"

"Which ship?" Hak yelled. Shin-ah pointed to the farthest from us.

I turned to Jae-ha, "Jae-ha!"

"Right," he grabbed Shin-ah and flew off to the other ships.

I turned to my opponents, "Hey, the faster we defeat them, the quicker we can see Yona!"

Hak grunted, but fought harder. Kija as well.
~~~~~

The two behind me were slowing considerably. I wasn't in the best of shape either, in fact I was probably worse. I had been using any spiritual powers, which if you haven't figured out, I can control the elements. It scared Hak and Kija senseless when I knocked away their opponents after they began to slow.

I began to see a hint of light coming, signaling that the night was over. Although, standing right there with a bow in her hand was Yona. She looked about ready to shoot Kumuji, and she shocked us all. Nobody thought that she could pull a weapon on another, especially me and Hak, but it seems she likes to prove us wrong.

As dawn broke, I could see no trace of regret. Not that Kumuji deserved it, but because Yona never killed anyone. Still, no regret or remorse was in Yona's eyes.

She's really grown up.

Sorry! I didn't mean to wait so long until I updated, but the first 3 weeks of school have been a pain, and I have volleyball.

I'll try to update as soon as I can.

Wait for me?
