"Where is he? He said to meet up here." Said the young mithra. She has long brunette hair with crystal blue eyes. She wasn't much taller then 5' 5". Suddenly there was movement in the brush. She gripped her great sword that was on her back, "Who's there?". She turned, a black figure jumped out and made a direct blow to her back causing her to lose her balance. She layed there and barely said, "Where...are...you?". She softly cried and next thing you know she's unconsious.

It was a warm summer day. There was a mithra that lied asleep on a tree branch over a river. Someone shouted out to her, "Tyoko! Come on let's go!". Tyoko yawned and streched out. She jumped from the tree and grabbed her great sword. She shouted back, "I'm coming what's the hurry?" she said running towards them.

"We have to be in Batallia downs by dawn. We are farming Tigers for your friend remember?". Tyoko laughed slightly. "Yeah i know but it's still dusk out.".

The two ran down path threw Jugner Forest to Batallia downs. "So Tyoko why you farming tigers for your friend anyway?".

"Well Nikki, I guess it's they least i could do after what they did for me." She said as she smiled softly.

"Oh you mean that scar?" said Nikki with a slight frown as they ran the path.

Tyoko reach over her right sholder, "Yeah...If it wasn't for them I'd be dead".

"I see. So you ever going to level your secondary job?" said Larissa (Nikki) while she tried to change subject since she saw it was upsetting Tyoko.

"Yea I'll level white mage soon I'll just have to farm a few extra tigers so i can get armor for it." Tyoko laughed.

They went up to the Home point just outside of Batallia downs.

"Well Tiki (Tyoko) let's get to work." she said as she drew her spear. "Okay." Tyoko said and smiled as she drew her sword.

The two ran straight down the path and into Batallia downs. They looked into the sunrise with their weapons drawn. "We came just in time look at all the tigers!" said Tyoko.

"Yup. Told you we should be here by dawn." she giggled and smiled at Tyoko.

"Time to farm! Let's go!" said Tyoko. Tyoko gave a berserk and provoked a tiger.

The two slayed Tigers until sunset. Then they settled a camp for the night.

Tyoko was still a little new at her job so she fell right to sleep. Larissa remained up till midnight.

A young man adventurer with short brown hair and green eyes was walking down the path of Jugner Forest. He wore a full set of bone armor and a Great sword.

"This place brings back memories." he said as he walked past a section of grass that was dyed the color of blood.

"This is where I met her...that beautiful young mithra." he said as he slightly smiled as he walked by.

A adventurer came walking up the path to Batallia downs. He looked to the side of the path to see a mithra lieing motionless. He ran up to her to see if he could help. The mithra had a severe injury to her back. He picked her up and began running down the path to Outpost. The mithra started to come to and saw that someone was carrying her. In a foggy state she said "Who..are..you?". He smiled slightly and said "Ryurizer. Mind If I ask yours?". She smiled slightly and said "Not at all...My name is Tyoko and Thank you.". He looked slightly confused and said "For what?". She smiled weakly "For helping me.". She giggled. "I only just met you what else would I mean.".

Tyoko jerked out of her sleep in the middle of the night. She saw that Larissa had fallen asleep. Tyoko jumped down from her usual spot of sleeping in a tree. She walked all the way to Jugner and walked to the river.

She looked at her reflection in the water. She had her long hair down and her blue eyes glowed in the soft light of the night. Then she noticed her face was cherry red, she was blushing.

Suddenly she could hear footsteps coming up the path. She jumped behind a tree and had sword in hand just incase. She never went threw Batallia without a weapon after what happened.

A tall figure came closer and closer as it ghostly walked the path. Tyoko gripped her sword tightly. The figure suddenly stopped and stared at where Tyoko hid.

She could hear a sword be drawn but it wasn't hers for she still held it in her hand with it's sheath. The figure came right at her in a dash. She tried to draw her sword but she was already in the figure's grip with a sword to her throat.

"Well, well, well. Didn't know you was like that Ryurizer." Tyoko giggled. She looked at her in shock.

"Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry. I thought-." Ryurizer was saying before Tyoko interupted him.

"It's okay. I know how cautious you can be sometimes." she laughed and smiled.

The two stood there for a second in complete silence. Then Tyoko started back to the camp where Larissa still lied asleep. Ryurizer hesitated for a moment then followed Tyoko up the path.

"So how you been Ryu? (Ryurizer)" she said as she put her hair up while walking the path threw the hilly, Batallia downs.

"I've been okay. How about you Tyoko?" he said blushing in the darkness.

"Same as usual. Oh yeah I got you something. It's sort of a "Thank you" gift I guess you can call it.". Tyoko reached into a backpack that lied under the tree she was asleep in earlier. "Here." Tyoko said while handing 3 stacks of tiger hides to Ryurizer. "It's not much but it's the least I can do.".

"Thank you but you didn't have to pay me back. It's sort of my job to help people that need it." he said as his face started to turn red again.

Tyoko smiled at him. "Well I better wake up Larissa and start up the path to Upper Jueno.".

"Can I come with you?" Ryurizer said.

"Sure. Just let me pack up and wake up Larissa. Then we can leave." Tyoko said. She walked up to Larissa and shook her slightly. "Nikki. It's almost dawn let's get going to Jueno". Nikki gave a yawn and got up.

"Well, well...Now look who wants to leave before dawn." Nikki said. The two stood there and laughed while getting ready to leave again.

"Oh yeah. Nikki this is Ryurizer. The "friend" I told you about." she said.

"Is he now?" she said as she turned to the young man infront of her. "I'm Larissa but you can call me Nikki if you want." she said as she held out her hand to Ryurizer.

He shook Nikki's hand, "Nice to meet you Larissa.".

"Okay everything is ready Nikki let's go to Upper Jueno." Tyoko said while picking up her backpack.

"Okay Tiki. Maybe we can come back here and farm again sometime if you want to." she slightly giggled as they started up the path to Upper Jueno.

"So you guys are going to Jueno too? Well then, guess I won't be walking alone to Jueno after all." he laughed.

"Guess not." said Tiki and Nikki in unison while laughing.

The trio walked threw the hills to Jueno as the sun rose just over the harizon. "Today is going to be a great day. I can feel it." Tyoko giggled and smiled as the 3 walked down the path towards the sunrise to Jueno.
