Ice Heart

Children's imagination

We checked in the Inn and brought our stuff to our rooms, Yona was sharing a room with Yoon and I had the luxury of my own. I looked around the Room as I placed my bag down on the Bed, it wasn't a big room but it was nice and clean. On the left side of the room was a king size bed with light blue curtains around, on either side of the bed was a nightstand on the right nightstand was a lamp in the shape of a lighthouse. On the right was a wardrobe and a big Mirror, across the door was a Window Wall with dark blue Curtains and a Door made out of glass that lead to a small balcony. I took my bag and throw it into the wardrobe before I made my way out on the balcony, you could see the ocean and the clear blue sky "it's like on the Ship" I had to admit that the life in the Pirat group was amazing, I lived to sit on the deck and watch the setting sun. A knock on the door brought me back and I went to open the door, Yona and Yoon was standing there smiling.

„ Princess? Is something wrong?“

„Everything is fine, we just wanted to go to town and look around and maybe do a little shopping. You want to come with us?“

I looked at Yoon and the Princess, they both looked at me with hopefull eyes. "I sure could use a few new cloth, I can't hurt to go look around"

„Okay sure, lets go“

Both smiled Brightly and we made our way into town. The shops were simple and small but everything looked to nice, I couldn't help but think about the time I was with Hiryuu.

„Everything okay?“

I looked a little surprised to the side and saw Yoon watching me, I must have been starring into space without realizing it.

„Im okay, just remembered something“

„you have been here before right? I could see the look in your eyes as we walked through the streets“

„yeah I was here before, it's a little hard for me to look at all this . . . Alone. . .“

„But your not alone“

„What?“

„Your not alone, not anymore. You have Yona, Me, The Dragons and Hak. We are all your friends, your not alone“

I couldn't help but smile as I saw him try so hard to cheer me up, he was just like my little brother. I ruffled his hair and chuckled a bit

„Yeah your right“

„Hey my hair, do you know how long I need to make them look so perfect? And of course I'm right, I'm a beautiful genius“

I had to admit that it was kind of fun to go shopping with the two of them, I kinda felt like a babysitter but it wasn't so bad at all. As we set in front of a small shop that sells Grilled Fish we set down and ordered some,

„Oh my God this is really good “

„Yeah it's delicious “

The two were right it was really good and I smiled as I watched them eat so happy, suddenly I felt a trug in my coat and looked to the side. A little girl was standing there and looking up at me, she didn't seemed to fear me it was more the opposite. As I thought about it, no one from the town had looked at me or whispered something about my appearance. Everyone seemed kinda used to it, I placed my fish down and turned around to the girl.

„How can I help you little Lady?“

„are you a real Cat Damon too?“

„Yes I am, but what do you mean if I am too?“

„You look a lot like him“

„like who? Can you tell me what you mean please?“

„Big Brother at the Snack Shop at the end of Town by the huge Playground, he has ears and a tail just like you“

I was shocked as hear the girl, this couldn't be true. No one of my race survived, she can't be serious.

„you said big brother, but you don't have ears or a tail“

„he is not my real brother but every kid in this town calls him that“

„do you know his real name?“

But just as the girl wanted to answer we heared a woman calling to us

„Yuri don't bother other people, come on we need to go home“

„Sorry Cat Lady, but I have to go. Maybe we can play together another time“

Before I could say anything else, the girl run off and left me speechless. I looked after them and didn't realized that Yona and Yoon were looking at me Worried, how could this be? Another Neko in this town, but I didn't feel any aura.

„Emi-Ri? Are you okay?“

I blinked a few times and looked over at them, I forced a small smile and started to eat again

„Im fine, don't worry. I'm sure she only saw a man in a costume and confused him for a real one“

I forced myself to eat but the worried eyes of Yoon and Yona didn't leave me

„Are you sure, you look kinda pale. . .“

„Maybe we should go to the inn, there you could rest“

I placed the stick on the plate and stood up still forcing a smile

„I have to admit that I'm tried, we should really go back. On top of that the sun is already setting, let's go.“

We walked back to the Inn and inside the lobby we meet the others

„Hey were have you been this whole day?“

Hak asked

„Yoon, Emi-Ri and I went shopping but something real strange Happened as we went for lunch . . .“

„Guys I'm really tired, I'm in my room and I will see you tomorrow “

As I was almost at the stairs as I heared Hak calling out to me

„Hey Emi-Ri“

I stopped but didn't turned around

„are you sure you okay?“

„Yes I'm fine, just tried “

I didn't wait for any more questions, I went to my room and closed the door behind me. I went outside and on the Balcony, the words from the girl didn't leave my mind. "It can't be true, I'm the only one left. Or am I not?"
