Walking backwards is always terrible idea. before I could even defend myself. I had a blade centimeters away from my throat.

"Yu gonplei ste odon"
She whispered

"Hod op, Hod op, Hod op"
[Wait, Wait, Wait]
I quickly said

"Ai laik Lexa kom TriKru... Baja,
Sen yu swis daun, gada!"
[I am Lexa of the Woods Clan... Please, Put your knife down, girl]
I added

She tightened her gripped around me.
Wondering how I know the language.
Moment passed when she finally let go

"Emo komb'ir"
[They're coming]
She said as the blade still ready to cut me of I make the wrong move.

"Mochof"
[Thank you]
I said letting go of the breath I've been holding in for what seemed so long.
Even the polluted city air felt good.

"You speek English-?"
She was asking when I pulled her behind a motorcycle.

"Shhhhh"
I confirmed her question by shaking my head up then down slowly.
She then realize there are people coming from 2 directions we both came from.

She attempted to get up but i held her arm. Causing us to look into each others eyes. Something happened that never happened before.

I somehow saw her pass.
The thing she did..... She had too....
It was either die or breath by killing for survival. I wonder if she saw mine. I opened my eyes and she was gone. She was surrounded by about 8 soulless being. the other 8 was on the ground dead. Her gun ran out of bullets I'm guessing.

On the bike it had 2 swords.
Pulling them felt natural.
Shockingly since it's my first time holding swords.

I ran and allow the blade to move not having to think of what I was gonna cut. When i keeled and looked up.
The girl was staring at me like I've done something odd. Looking around the 8 possessed beings half standing and the other half of their body is bleeding on the street ground.

Blood so dark made it look like spilt oil.

"Have We Met Before?"
She said as walking closer to me.

"Seems like it but I don't know wher-"
I was answering

She looked into my eyes and these visions showed up again.
Bloods upon bloods. It just kept going.
All the lives the was taken.

"When I was young. My father used to tell me to look for the girl named Lexa from the Woods Clan.... is that you?"
She voiced

"That's funny because when I was younger the lady who rasied me. Had told me to look for someone in the title of Clarke the Sky Princess from the Space Clan.... do you know where I can find her?"
I began saying

She let out a smile and murmured
"Yeah. I do. I can take you to her if you want... I'm from the same clan as she is. And I'm sure shed be glad to see you"
She answered.

"How can I trust you? Hell! You know my name and I still dont know yours"
I pointed out.

"Tell you this. Learn to trust me without my name. And I promise to take you to Your Princess... deal?"
She said holding out her hand for me to confirm her agreement.

Looked down at her hand and back up at her eyes. Showing me the shit shed done isn't helping either.

"No.... I need a name... then I can trust you.... you need to learn to trust me too.... haven't your mom thought you to never go anywhere with strangers?"

"Yeah, she did. But I still saved you. Right?"
The blonde said.

"I saved you too. Didn't i not? Your gun ran out of ammo. Without me you could've died. So just give me a name"
I demanded.
