Back at the Fernandes house, the lights inside were all closed. Only the lights outside of the house were open, and that one room which was the study, where Jeraline was already packing her things.

Jeraline didn't pack that much, since Eric could already store most of everything into his magic container.

A while after that moment, Eric popped in the room, slowly opening the door and brushing his eyes to see clearly. Jeraline then moved her head up to smile.

"Oh, Eric-kun, you're awake now." Jeraline greeted, since that Eric had a little nap. Eric smiled back and walked cutely to his sister's side.

"So, we're going to look for Papa and Mama, right, Onesan?" Eric asked, still not knowing the main purpose of this. "Like I said, it will be dangerous. I told you, it's nighttime and it's dark."

He sounded so sure, marking every spot what'll happen, giving reasons to not go for their safety. Eric then felt worried. "Besides, the guild's probably watching us too. You know they'll watch over their nakama since Mama ordered it officially."

Jeraline would never get convinced easily. She was always so stubborn, although she was not playing around. "Don't worry. I made everyone forget about what Mama told them. It's a spell. I don't know when it will wear off though, but it should last for weeks!"

Eric clutched even more, after the moment when a small cloud when out of his mouth by blowing the small wind. He had no choice. He had to follow his older sister, even when it is really not safe.

"Oh alright, Onesan. But as I said, I'm not so sure about this." Eric replied, later falling to his legs and sitting on the ground.

Jeraline shook her head, after bringing her hand to hold her brother's hand. "Don't worry. I'll handle it, Eric."

Since she was at hold of Eric, she then carried the small bag, leading her feet down the stairs. Something that was unexpected was that her feet led to the back door.

Eric's eyes enlarged, realizing where this would be going, right after his sister wrapped a dark brown cloak on Eric and put the hood on, also counting herself too.

"What are we doing, Onesan?" Eric questioned so startled. "Do you mean we're leaving now?!"

"Don't be too loud, Eric-kun. Nashi-san, Natsu-ojīsan and the others are good at smell and hear!" Jeraline answered immediately, lecturing her brother to stay out of trouble.

When she was done putting the dark cloak properly, she stepped out very slowly with Eric out the door, then carrying him to help him. She closed the door with locking it shut, later putting down Eric.

"Okay, Eric, we're out. Make sure to use whispers." Jeraline reminded, looking around to just be extra careful.

Eric slowly nodded as Jeraline quickly and quietly ran fast, holding Eric's hand while they were heading towards the train station.

*******

It was late at night. Jeraline and Eric already arrived at the train station. It was so empty, no trains that arrived to take off yet or not a lot of people were wandering around. Some people also went out, which made it even quieter.

Jeraline and Eric were the only ones at their main train station right now. Their hoods were seriously up so no one will see their upper face, to both of them had their eyes laid on the ground while they were sitting on the bench.
