-Because I was ordered here by the lord of DarkHill, her dad. She says pointing at me.
-How did you know where to find us? He asks
-That's none of your concern.She replies
-What do you want? I blurt out
-I want to know how your quest is doing, did you kill him yet? she asks
-No, and I'm not going to. I say
-Oh? And what gives you the right to make that decision? She asks
-I gave me the right. I say
-You Did, Eh?

We just stand there in silence.

-Well, I'll be off now. She says
-No you don't! I protest.
-What? What am I missing? She asks
-What are you going to do exactly? This time, it was the stranger who spoke
-Who are you anyway? She asks
-That is none of your concern. He says
-Oh? Well then it's none of your concern what I'm going to do. She snaps
-But are you g-- I start to say.
-Don't have time for questions! I'll leave you be with your boyfriend. Toodles! She says before vanishing into thin air.

I felt a blush creep onto my face. I look down, trying to hide it.

There is a crazy person beside Me! Help!

-What do you think she's going to do? He asks me, breaking the silence
-She's probably going to tell my dad. I sight
-What's going to happen when he finds you? He asks me
-I don't know exactly. I murmur
-Well I, don't want to stick around and find out. He says
-What are we going to do? I ask him.
-Meteli would be the closest village so we could go there. He says, thinking aloud.
-How long would it take to walk there? I ask him
-About 3 days. He responds
-Well then, we should get going. I say

He nods and takes my hand. I blush as we run out the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3 days. 3 days without food or water makes the day longer. We can't stop because we're scared they would catch up to us. We arrived at meteli last night. I'm staring at the ceiling, wide awake.

"You still awake?" The stranger asks

He set up some blankets on the floor while I was set on the bed.

"Yeah," I reply
"You'll be fine. He won't find you." He reassures me
"How do you know that? He could still find me, and I'll be forced to kill someone I don't even know!" I respond "I'm not that kind of person."
"I know you're not." He whispers

I roll to the edge of the bed to look at him. He was looking at me, straight in the eyes.

"What's.... your name?" I ask softly.

His eyes clouded and he looked away.

"I could never tell you." He mumbles
"Why not? I would never tell anyone." I protest

He looks back at me and sighs.

"Please." I plea.

He sits up and turns to me.

"I guess you would have figured it out sometime." He whispers

I straighten my poster, waiting for an answer.

"My name.... is Aaron."

IM BACK AFTER 15 YEARS! YAY! I'm just pretty much updating everything I can right now xP. But I did it! I finished the very short chapter! I finally figured out what to write! I hope this chappie wasn't too too bad.

Ciao kittens!
