*Recap*

Seiryuu Pov

"What's your name blue dragon?" Questions Yona.

"I don't have a name, they always just called me blue dragon, " I state.

"Well welcome blue drag... OMS is that a squirrel" yells Lux grabbing Ao and rubbing her cheek against him. She pulls out a red bean paste bun and gives it to Ao who eats it happily while Lux looks at him with sparkles in her eyes.

Yona's Pov

I watch as Lux smiles at the Seiryuu and a light shade of pink covers his cheeks. Kija was looking for the green dragon or the Ryokuryuu. However, he faints. Seiryuu looks worried slightly and Kija just pats his head.

"I am okay, and you can call me big brother if you want, " says Kija. Suddenly Seiryuu sprints off in a direction and we all follow him. He removes his fluff and mask and dives into the water.

"Look what you did white snake he is drowning himself, " states Hak sarcastically. Seiryuu steps out holding a fish out to Kija. Kija smiles.

"Is this for me so I get better?" Questions Kija. Seiryuu nods. Kija smiles brightly but suddenly Seiryuu begins to shiver from the cold water and the cold air now.

"Look what you did white snake he's going to freeze to death now, " observes Hak. Kija begins to freak out about how he accidentally killed his brother. We hung up Seiryuu's clothes by the fire to dry and he was only in his mask and fluff, still shivering. Lux walks over to him and hugs his body. He blushes slightly but I notice blue fire not burn the two but envelope them. Seiryuu doesn't shiver anymore and looks really warm. Me being curious I lean against Lux's back the blue fire envelopes me and it warms my body fully. As if I was wrapped in several blankets on a winter night. Soon Kija joins, then Yoon. Hak was the only one sitting out of our group warmth.

"Hak come join us there is a space next to Yona, " smirks Lux. Hak sighs and gives her a look but joins us sitting beside me and leaning against my side. I blush slightly due to the close contact.

"Wise, all-knowing, evil fox," mumbles Hak. Lux only smirks at this and we continue to snuggle. Later everyone is asleep and I thought about practicing with my bow that Hak got me last town over.

*flashback*

"Hak teach me how to fight," I exclaim.

"No, " states Hak blankly.

"But Hak I need to be able to protect myself, please Hak, " I beg.

"My answer still stands, " exclaims Hak.

"Hak, you can't protect her forever, " states Lux.

"I just don't want her to get hurt anymore, " sighs Hak. Both acting like I am no longer here.

"Hak there are two types of pain. Pain that hurts you and pain that changes you. Yona wants the change type of pain are you going to deny her of her dreams her wishes?" Questions Lux as she walks off into the forest by Yoon's place. Hak is silent for a while but then turns to look at me.

"I will teach you," says Hak. I jump up in happiness. He tosses me a now and I look at it confused.

"First shoot us something for dinner, " orders Hak. I nod and point at the bird. I shoot and the bird just dodges.

"I didn't shoot it down," I uttered. Hak grabs the bow and aims it up at the bird and shoots it down without looking.

"How did you do that?" I inquire in awe.

"I aimed, " explains Hak in a monotone voice. I sigh in annoyance.

"You will shoot 200 arrows as we move so you get better at aiming, " orders Hak. I groan but I don't complain and begin to shoot the arrows into the tree.

*flashback ends*

At the last town, we passed through Hak got me a good bow with several arrows due to me losing them a lot. So far lots of my arrows have disappeared, broke, or been stolen by Lux to make a logs cabin for Ao. I go to find a good place and see Seiryuu awake looking at the moon.

"He reminds you of the moonlight right?" Asks Lux. I go wide-eyed.

"Shin-ah!" I exclaim. The Seiryuu looks at us.

"It's a joint effort from Lux and I. Shin-ah means moonlight. So we thought Shin-ah would fit you well. So do you want that to be your name?" I ask with a smile. Shin-ah looks back and the moon and smiles slightly.

"My name is Shin-ah," whispers Shin-ah. I leave and go to practice with my bow.

Shin-ah's Pov

I sat in the grass quietly. Ao, I got my name today. My name is Shin-ah.

"If you actually want to tell him I can call his spirit here, " states Lux sitting beside me. I blush slightly as the close contact.

"No, it's fine like this. I believe he can hear me, " I mumbled. Lux smiles then summons a red bean paste bun. She takes a bite if it leaving a mark in the bun. She notices me looking so she holds it out to me. I pick it up and look at it then take a bite. My heartbeat quickens suddenly.

'What's going on' I think to myself.

"You have awakened the longing feeling of the Kitsu. You have found out your feelings for the girl. You love her just as much as I once did, " States the voice of the first Seiryuu Abi.

'What do I do?' I ask.

"You protect her, love her, care for her. Finally, you do the most important thing, you don't let the green dragon have her all to himself. You either share or you get her. If we are lucky the previous green dragon Shuten didn't pass on his feelings as I had done. The new green dragon could just like her as a friend, " notes Abi. I nod. I zone back in to see Lux waving her hand in front of my mask covered face. Her face hovers in front of mine. I turn bright red as the urge to kiss those perfect lips hit me like a ton of bricks.

"We should head back to the group, " says Lux. I could only nod and follow her a bit away from her. We head to bed and Lux lies beside Kija. Kija smiles slightly in his sleep and I feel pain course deep in my heart. I watch the two with slight anger as blue fire surrounds both of them. I watch them through the fire and fall asleep against the base of a tree. The next day Kija is up and we are back on the trail of the green dragon. For some reason, the thought of my fellow brother sends anger running through my veins.
