Mogi : are you sure you're okay ?

Cyclone : for the last time mogi , I'm fine .

Mogi : so you finally figured it out .

Cyclone:  maybe or you just talk in your sleep mr. i will follow you anywhere in the world no matter what  . who was it ?

Mogi :  i can and will shoot you.

Cyclone:  come on who were you dreaming about ?

Mogi : drop it . He's dead since two years ago because of the sherriff sending the hounds on him.cyclone stopped dead in his tracks and watched me as i kept walking along the branches of the trees above his head . i saw a smile cross his face and he continued walking the dirt road .

Cyclone:  a he you say does that mean , i for say might have a chance?

Mogi : never in either of our lives .

Cyclone:  why not?

Mogi:  you're a prince and besides . i only see you as a friend .i swear in that exact moment when the words left my mouth his heart shattered. The summer breeze broke the tension between us by bringing the smell of burning hay and black powder . i took off through the branches with cyclone chasing my movements until i jumped down and ran to the bhrning house where a man was being held back by three others and two children were tugging at his feet holding him back . The little girl spotted me and ran to me dragging to the man just as they pushed him backwards onto the ground .

Little girl:  please help my dad . he couldn't afford the taxes and the sheriff set our house on fire . Can you help save him .

Cyclone:  robin hood i know you're used to arrows but a little common courtesy might help with your cause .

Mogi : we'll help you but only if you promise to keep him a safe distance away from the fire .she nodded and i took off my green hood leaving it on the ground but keeping the mask on .inside of the small house was barely anything a few pots and pans here maybe a metal spoon there. Cyclone was outside helping hold back the desperate man who kept trying to get back inside the house . finally i could see the almost unconscious father of the two children. I understand why he couldn't afford to pay taxes , he was almost dead from the flu and couldn't work. The ring on his hand matched the one outside on the other's .when he tried to get up he almost collapsed into a wall of fire next to him .by the time i got him outside of the house he was a heartbeat away from death .i barely got to set him on the ground before the other man broke free and instantly got to his knees to sit next to him.

Man : thank you for saving my husband. I don't know what I would have done without him .

Cyclone : he was just being kind .i felt mogi's hand connect with the back of my head smacking me forward. What did you do that for .

Mogi : we should get going before the sheriff catches us .we'll be back in a few days with burn medicine,  RIGHT cyclone.

Cyclone:  until then stay safe everyone.

....

Cyclone:  you got burned up really bad back there , maybe we could go to the castle and treat some of the worse burns .

Mogi : only for a few minutes .before i know it , I'm standing shirtless in front of a mirror looking at the damage of my lower back and chest .

Cyclone : do you want some privacy?

Mogi : you saw me in the bath before.

Cyclone:  not completely and i covered my eyes because I have manners . also the night guards already surrounded the castle so looks like you're staying the night . you can take the bed and i'll sleep on the chair .wait , why are you giving me that look ?

Mogi : what chair .

Cyclone:  in the private drawing room .

Mogi : okay just make sure nobody knows I'm here .i didn't even get a chance to enjoy the soft pillow or the silk sheets because i instantly fell asleep dreaming about my friends and my mother ...
