It was a cloudy day, the group had found shelter in a nearby cave. It was supposed to rain, great..Ako already didn’t like the rain because it hurt like a bitch to her, whereas Hanako enjoyed the rain..she found it calming and relaxing. Shin and Shun started to gather supplies for a fire while Syraxes and Bikra left to find food, Tobi stood guard for any predators or..the workers from that awful place.. Hanako stayed in the cave with Zarina keeping her company. Knowing well that Zarina was a full grown adult, but knowing her she probably died and came back as a child…again.
“Hey! Did you guys get a fire figured out?” Hanako called out to the brothers, Shin sighed in annoyance.
“Almost. The stick is a pain!” he said then paused and smirked as he glanced over at his girlfriend Ako, he walked over and hugged her from behind. “Hey Love, You have fire abilities don't you? Could you start the fire this time?” he charmingly spoke to her. Shin was good at being a charming little shit, it’s how Ako ended up with him and his brother, his charm never worked on Hanako, then again he really didn’t care for Ako’s twin. Ako let out a sigh, “Fine. but only this one time.” she said before moving out of his grip and lit the pile of wood on fire..a pretty gray and red flame..
Hanako looked over at the child and smiled, “So what killed ya this time? And the hell were you in the woods alone!? Where is your mother?” she asked Zarina, not completely scolding her but pretty much close to it. “You can’t just keep dying. You know how that effect’s Arion” she added. Hanako always had a soft spot for Zarina..she couldn’t imagine not being able to see her father..or the only time she got to see him was when she died..even then the teen knew that Zarina couldn’t talk to him.
“Where was the last time you saw your mother? Maybe she might be in the colder areas like the Whitfox kingdom..it’s snowy there..” she suggested. Hanako was always good with Zarina whenever she was a child, whether it was babysitting or just hanging out.
Meanwhile Scyraxes and Bikra came back with some animals and herbs bickering like always. "Will you two quit your damn bickering. That's all you've done since we escaped." Shun hissed as Ako walked over to her boyfriend’s and sat down next to them.
