Sin and I stood in awe as we took in the scenery.

"I've never seen anything like it," Sin spoke. "Weird monsters. The air is so warm and humid."

"This is..." I whispered.

"The Dungeon!" we screamed in glee.

"AHH!" 

We jumped in surprise as we heard someone scream. 

Hearing something behind us I was shoved to the side as a dragon flew over us.

As Sin hovered over me, I looked at the dragon as it continued to fly before diving down.

The two of us got up and ran over to the edge of the cliff.

Looking down I saw the Partavian soldiers fighting the dragons. They were clearly losing against the beasts. I proceed to jump down the cliff to try and help.  However, before I could get down the boy, whose name that I'd forgotten, was left.

Landing on the ground, I spotted a spear next to me. Grabbing the spear I looked at Sin as he landed on a pillar. Looking at each other, I motioned the spear in my hands to him.

He nodded as I aimed right next to him. Just as I threw it, a dragon flew right at me.

"Give me your worst monster!" the boy yelled.

Moving out of the way of the dragon, I grabbed my fans, that were stored in the cloth that wrapped around my waist,  and used the sharp ends of it to cut the dragon's neck.

"Wait, I know you two..."

Turning to see the boy, as he looked at the two of us.

Sin jumped down to stand next to me.

"Come on this way!" Sin yelled as he grabbed my hand and pulled me. "Hurry!"

He started to follow us as we ran for cover.

After a while of running, we were able to get away as we had found a small cave. The boy from earlier sat on the floor to catch his breath. Sin and I looked into the sky as the dragons flew overhead. Not noticing us.

"Tell me something," Sin started as he looked at the boy. "How the heck did you guys get inside the Dungeon before us? I was sure, we'd beat you here."

'Now that he mentions it,' I thought to myself as a strange feeling of dread washed over me.

"You're that pacifist from before, along with your violent girlfriend," he recalls.

'Girlfriend?' I questioned as I had a confused expression. 'Sure I may be violent but...'

I directed my eyes at Sin and saw that he was pink.

"Go mind your own business," he finished speaking as he turned to face away from us.

"Huh?" finally snapping out of his thoughts, Sin asked in the most logical way.

Looking down as he crossed his arms in annoyance, "Have you forgotten, I'm a soldier? I have no reason to accept help from the likes of traitors such as yourselves."

"I could give a rat's ass about your reasons," Sin looked behind him before sitting down and resting his head on his hand. "Harping on it isn't going to change anything."

"Oh, and by the way..." I sat down next to Sin as I crossed my arms together. " We still haven't gotten so much as a thank you for saving your life. Now, who's being childish?"

As I asked, I leaned forward with a mischievous smirk.

Looking up with an angered look he retorted, "Just who are you calling a child? Very well then, I'll introduce myself in a way that even a commoner could follow."
