Chapter Three

Therru's POV

I opened my eyes. I looked out the window to see that the sun had descended and the moon appeared. I sat up and flung my feet over, stretching my arms. I changed into a light pink nightgown and put my hair down. I'll go check on León. Idecided and walked downstairs with a candle in hand.

I opened the door to the spare room and walked inside quietly. When I approached his bed, he looked as if he was in pain and there were marks on his skin. I put the candle on the side table and saw him toss painfully in his sleep. I rushed to his side and shook his arm. "Hey, hey!" I called and shook him harder. "Wake up, León!"

He sat up, breathing hard. His eyes darted around the room and finally landed on me. "Are you okay?" I asked and put a hand to his forehead. "That must've been one horrible dream."

"Wh-Where...? Yeah." He nodded and lay back down. "Just a dream." He said.

I watched the marks fade off his skin. "Where are you from?" I asked.

"Santa Bard." He said. "Don't you have anyone else living here?"

"Nope. I'm all alone." I sat on the bed.

"Oh. Right." He said and averted his eyes from me.

"Hey, I have a question." He looked at me. "Don't you have any parents?"

"I have a dad."

"Where is he now?"

"Probably out with some girl." He sighed. "He doesn't know I'm here."

"Do you want me to find him for you? Because I'm not letting you out of bed until that hole in your tummy heals." I say. "What does he look like?"

"Well, he is most likely naked. But other than that, he's blond and would probably have something like knives with him. His name is Germán." He said.

"Alrighty then. I'll see you, León." I stood and walked to the door.

"Wait!" He called as I was about to walk out. I looked back at him. "Therru, thank you." He said.

I gave him a closed eye smile and waved before heading out.

"Oi! You!" I pointed to a blonde man who seemed to be looking around. "Is your name Germán?"

"Yes it is, little lady." He smirked.

"Are you looking for your son?" I asked.

"Oh, so that's where he was all night!" He laughed. "Did he have a good time?"

"We didn't sleep together!" I said with a blush in my face. "He was injured. By a Horror."

His smile faded. "Where is he?"

"At my house. Healing. I had to practically drag his half dead body into my spare room, when his father could've been with him. But anyways, want me to take you to him?"

"Yeah." He said and approached me. Then, he sung a bell in my face.

"What's that?" I ask as he puts it away.

"Something to figure out if you're a Horror or not."

"Uh-huh. Well, he was stabbed, in the chest." I took him to my house. "And this is my house. Where I horribly mutilate humans and sell their organs."

"What?!"

"Kidding!" I opened the door and he looked relieved to see it. "He's in the room over there. I'll make some breakfast."

--------Third Person POV---------

León an his father conversed about what had happened. "Who is the girl?" Germán finally asked.

"Her name is Therru."

"Therru, huh?" He scratched the back of his head, muttering to himself. "Therru, Therru, where have I heard of that name before?"

"Probably because you knew my father." Therru said, walking in, making the two jump slightly. "Koro, the knight of Hope. Here," she placed the tray on the bed between the two.
"There's another bed over there," she pointed across the room, "not much, but it'll work. I'll see you all in the morning." She bid her goodbye and went to her own room.
