Chapter Four

Miriko looked around at everyone ,"so...any thoughts on what he is...though...it shouldnhe obvious.." She mumbled. Everyone else nodded ,well everyone in that room since Mischa is in his room. "He's..." Kougai started ,"the mage" glen had finished . "we had all agreed ...that he was dead...after all theses years..." Glen nodded and looked out the window to where ariha was. He was starting to regret being rude to him but shook the thought out of his head. He growled ,"I'm taking a nap!" He yelled and stormed off to his room . "I think we all need sleep..." Miriko nodded . They all sent to their rooms ,little did they know a fire had broken out in the basement. 

"Wake up...please wake up!" Glen had awoken to being slapped on the face. He looked over and saw miriko ,"w-whats going on?!" "A fire!!!hurry!!" They tried to get out but was trapped. "Shit! We're trapped!" Glen yelled as he grabbed miriko' s hand. Just the a small figure emerged through the fire , it ariha! "H-hurry!! T-this way!!" He coughed a bit and helped them trough. Miriko and glen made it out ,miriko turned around only to see ariha not anywhere to he seen. "I-I THINK ARIHA IS STILL IN THERE!!" miriko yelled ,Glen didn't say anything ,he just ran back inside to find the boy who risked his own life to save glen's. Glen saw ariha leaning against the wall gasping for air. Glen ran over and grabbed his wraist and tired to pull him ,but didn't get far. "L-let me go! I'll only cause you to get hurt! Jut go!!" Ariha pushed glen away ,glen growled and just pucked him up."put me-" "SHUT P!" glen yelled ,ariha started shaking. Glen could see a clear light around him, he looked down and saw ariha mumbling something. They both made it out with barley any injuries.

Miriko ran over ,"a-are you alright ariha?! ...and...how come you aren't hurt? Either of you?.."
"I..." "Ariha did something or whatever, and why am I still holding you..." Glen just drooped ariha on the ground . "OW!" he hissed in pain and glared at glen.
"Guys this is no time to be fighting.."mischa said as he and kougai walked over ,and for once they actually weren't fighting. Glen glared at them ,"yeah whatever.." He mumbled and sighed ,he helped ariha up. "Sorry..." He mumbled and looked at the ground . "its...fine...I guess.." Ariha mumbled. "So where are we going to be staying know?" Kyoto asked bluntly. "Yeah yeah! I rather not sleep in the cold right now!" Glenda said,and she had a point it was pretty cold right now. Ariha sneezed and then felt something wrap around him ,"here...you can use this " kougai smiled at ariha as he gave him his jacket. "O-oh thank you...but won't you be cold?" Kougai shook his head ,"naw I'm fine " he patted ariha's head. Miriam smiled ,"guys I found a hotel,we can stay there tonight and then look for the...door?..yeah door tomorrow" everyone nodded and yawned . Ariha stood up ,he started feeling dizzy . He fell forwards but was caught by glen. "Careful..." Glen picked him up and carried him to the car that didn't burn up, since it was on the side of the road. It was surprising that it fit everyone.

After about 15 minutes of driving they made it to the hotel. Glen picked up ariha ,who had fallen asleep during the ride. They walked to the front counter ,"how many rooms?" The woman there asked. "Three" glen answered and pulled out his wallet and paid.

After they got their keys the talked about the room situation. Glen and ariha would share,the three girls would share ,and kougai and mischa would share.
Everyone went to their own room to go to sleep.

Glen sighed and laid ariha down in the only bed in the room. He sat down in a chair next to the window and looked out at the city and then at ariha,he had a feeling this boy was going to change his life forever.
