As these Blade Children ran away from the killing, they couldn't help but feel like all they were to people are monsters, monsters of destruction. Eyes looked back and then at his youngest sister Ryo and he knew right then and there that most of their life will be running away, not just from Rae, but from everyone. The Blade Children isn't ever going to be a good title to have. The name of clones created for destruction of all humans, and for what cause? The entertainment of someone who has been mistreated throughout his life?

"We better make shelter here, we've gone far enough tonight, but we shouldn't stay for long. Kousuke, take Ryo and Ryoko over there and put them under some blankets while I get some fire wood to keep us warm. I don't think I'll be sleeping much tonight anyway." Kousuke nodded to his request and headed over to a near patch of grass. You could still see in the darkness, flames from the buildings being overcome by intense heat. Eyes could barely make out where he was going and felt his way on the ground for some sticks and branches to use in their fire. After collecting enough wood to last a couple of hours, he headed back towards that same patch of grass where Kousuke had taken Ryo and Ryoko.

As Eyes placed the fire wood down, he noticed the two girls were sleeping and looked at Kousuke, but said nothing. They both created a fire after a grueling hour of rubbing a stone on a stick and did not speak to each other the whole night. Kousuke tried to speak to Eyes, but only got a hand gesture that assured him he should just shut up and go to sleep.

Kousuke walked over to where Ryoko was sleeping and noticed that her blanket was flung off of her, so he put it back on her gently and slowly so that she wouldn't awaken. As he put the blanket on her he stopped at her face, noticing her deep breathing and couldn't help but think how beautiful she looked at that very moment. Once he noticed he had been standing over her for more than a minute by now, he stepped away. After he had completely stood up, he finally turned his face from her, grabbed a blanket and went to sleep.

Eyes was still looking into the distance at the flames rising from the city at which they came from. He could only think about what to do next and where to go. Nothing but thoughts raced through his head, trying to figure out how to get through this alive. The other cities were bound to hear about The Blade Children in a matter of days. How was he supposed to surpass all these obstacles? Would luck be at his side then? Even if he did make it through this, they still wouldn't be in complete freedom. There would always be someone out there trying to kill them and get rid of all the Blade Children, even risking their lives just so that every one of the Blade Children would be dead. He couldn't help but think, is it worth it all? Do they even have a chance at survival? Eyes shook his head and told himself, "We are going to leave tomorrow no matter what." And with that, Eyes decided that if he wanted to be at his best, he should get some rest and wake up early. They would have the best chance if they got up early enough and got some food, water and anything else they would need to keep them healthy for about a week before anyone else knew about them or questioned any one from out of town. So, with thoughts still racing through his mind, he did his best to get some sleep and get ready for their journey tomorrow.
