We all met again next morning and we were prepared to check this strange place on the outskirts of the village out.
-But first, we need to get you guys clothes that make you fit in more, Kei said and looked at Hak, Kija, Shin-ah, Jae-ha, Zeno, Yuri and I.
-Hey! Why doesn't Yoon have to get changed!! Kija yelled.
-Because his clothes fit in, Iwao said, then threw a folded piece of clothing to all eight of us.
-Now, change, he then said, but it sounded more like an order. Yuri and I went one way into the forest a bit away, and the guys went the other way. Jae-ha tried to go with Yuri and I but Hak grabbed him by the collar and dragged him with him.
-I have to wear this? Yuri said, holding up the kimono she got in front of her. It was a blue top and a white obi around the waist, with the skirt in a light pink colour, similar colour to the one I'm wearing right now. My kimono on the other hand, was peach coloured on the top, a black obi, and the skirt was white.

-Do you not like bright light colours? I asked her. She nodded, but started to put it on anyways. I put on my clothes too and when we both were done we went back to where the others were. The guys were already done.
-I guess the saying that girls take forever to get ready really is true, Hak teased.
-Hey! I said.
-By the way Yuri, what's that symbol on your hand? Kei asked and pointed on the golden dragon warrior symbol on Yuri's hand. She flinched, and immediately covered the symbol with her other hand.
-Oh this?It'sNothingYouDon'tHaveToKnowIMeanIt'sJustATattooIGotAWhileAgoThere'sNothingSuspiciousWithItOkaySoJustIgnoreItAndDon'tPayAttentionToItOkayOkay?? Yuri said really fast, kind of making it more suspicious. Kei got an even more suspicious look, of course.
-Let's just go, Iwao said and walked in the direction of the building.

The building looked like it hadn't been used in years.
-HELLO!! ANYONE HERE!? Yuri yelled and kicked down the door.
-Do you really think they'd answer you?! The only thing they'd do is run away!! Yoon scolded Yuri with annoyance in his voice. But then we heard a noise coming from inside.
-What? Who's there?! A deep voice asked. A figure walked out from the shadows, and a muscular man stepped out with a wooden bat in his hand.
Is that the best weapon he could think of?
-Oh, hello there. We were wondering if you could tell us if this is where Kurohoshii have been keeping kidnapped people? Yuri asked politely with a smile.
-Oh, yes indeed it is--, he answered, also politely, with a smile. But in mid-sentence, he realised what she had just asked and what he had just answered.
-H-How do you know about that?! He exclaimed and raised his bat.
-Kija, Shin-ah, Jae-ha, Hak, Yuri said as a signal to attack him.
-What? No, we don't take orders from you! You're not the boss! Kija complained. Yuri walked up to me and grabbed both of my shoulders, and then pushed me inside to where the man with the very-dangerous-wooden-bat was.
-Oh no! Yona is in trouble! Yuri said with an "oh no" voice.
-YONA!! Kija, Jae-ha and Hak yelled at the same time – while Shin-ah just looked worried – and they rushed into the house and started attacking the man.
-Don't you dare lay a finger on Yona! Kija threatened as he repeatedly attacked the man along with the other three.
-And that's how you make them do whatever you want, Yuri mumbled to herself with a proud smirk on her face.
-Sometimes, I don't understand how you can be the reincarnation of Daiki, Zeno mumbled. Hak, Kija, Shin-ah and Jae-ha were done beating the wooden-bat-guy up.
-Are you okay Yona?! Kija asked with worry.
-Yes, I am, I said and stood up. We then walked further into the building.
