After a few days of walking we made it to the old gates of Phoenix Drop. This village hasn't been in use for years. I gripped my sword tight, stood close to Amix and we both walked in. Trees has over grown adpnd paths have slowly rotted away. A bridge no longer stood but we found away across.

I walked over to the Plaza. Amix went off sniffing for any tools or food left over by oasser bys or something. The Plaza was like everything else, run down and broken. I see something shining by a ledge that over looked the ocean. Is that a Lady Irene statue? Before I could even get closer someone hit me down. As quick as a flash I grab my sword and hit back knocking him off his feet and on to the ground. I stand and knock his sword out of his hands, resting mine on his neck gently. I see his face. No........it can't be. His face, his hair, his eyes. No.

"Dante?" I lower my weapon and looked at him. He grabbed his sword and slowly got up." Who are you?" He asked, looking confused. I smiled slightly." D-Dante its me. Alexa. Remember? You would always visit my village in the summer?" His eyes widened." Al?" He always called me Al for short. No one knows why he calls me it but he does. I nod at him, tears rising in my eyes. He drops his sword, so do I, and he hugs me tight. I hug back crying." I can't believe your alive!" Dante yelled sounding ljke he was crying." I am........I'm here and alive Dan!" Yeah we were bad at nicknames.

He let go of the hug and looked at me." So," he sniffs " how old are you now?" I wipe my tears away and look at him." I.....I'm thirteen today actually." He smiles and messes up my hair." I would have thought older with sword skills like that, who tough you?" "My self. I tough my self." He seemed surprised at first but then smiled again. Amix came barking over." Amix!" I neeled down and hugged him." Alexa you and Amix? Can come with me. I'll take you both somewhere safe."
