Okay this story will start out a bit slow. But it will not take long for the action to kick back in. I still haven't finished my bleach story so the chapters will still come out slowly. I have warned you.
Chapter 1: In Search for you
A little ways outside of little twister…
"The sun feels extra hot today for some reason…" I whispered as I pushed some hair out of my face.
My silver hair…I never liked it. And it just keeps getting longer. It's so long now…that I had to tie it back.
It been two years now.
And…
I haven't found her.
But I know why.
She keeps moving. But…in her condition…she shouldn't be doing something so reckless.
"You, worry the hell out of me…you know that?" I asked the air as I slowly headed into town.
It hard to search for her; especially with the damn ark of destiny searching for me everywhere I go.
I looked around town shortly after I entered. "Damn…they put up more posters…" I cussed to myself.
When will they give up?!
It's been two years…and still they haven't.
Damnit.
I could feel my angry getting higher and higher.
Okay…claim down, I told myself.
They will have to give up, sooner or later right? I wondered.
"Did you hear?" I heard someone ask. "Yeah, the ark of destiny is going to make new posters with a higher price on those drifters' heads." Another person answered the first one.
I felt my mouth drop open.
Why?! Why does the world hate me so much?! I wondered.
Why?
"Well headhunters will surely keep going after them, then." The first one said. "Yeah. Really. That is…if the headhunters are strong enough." The two slowly walked away.
Ugh…I hate headhunters.
I had to deal with two of them so far.
And…they wouldn't give up…so I had to deal with them. Kill them in other words.
But they are a pain in the ass. They always have so many weapons on them! Arms, swords, spears; you name it! They have that weapon on them.
It all a pain in the ass!
Soon I made my way into the tavern.
I think if I was of drinking age…I would be a heavy drinker by now. But too bad…I'm not of age.
"What can I do for you?" The bar keeps asked me as I stopped in front of the bar. "I'm looking for information on someone." I quickly told me keeping my brown robe over my face. "And who would this someone be?" The bar keeps asked me.
I quickly pulled out a picture. "This girl. She's older now. But she should look close to this still." I told the bar keeps. "Hmm?" the bar keeps slowly looked the picture over. "Ah, that drifter girl?" He quickly said. "Wait…so you have seen her before?" I asked. "Well, yes…but she was here two months ago." I felt my mouth drop open.
T-t-two months ago?
"And she was only in town for a day or two then packed up and when on." He told me.
I was…so far behind her?!
"Uh…Do you have any idea where she headed next?" I asked hoping he would. "Afraid not. She didn't talk much." The bar keeps told me.
I couldn't believe it…t-t-two months ago? She was here.
She really doesn't want anyone to find her does she? I wondered.
"I see…well thank you anyways." I said with a sigh putting the picture away. I slowly turned away from the bar keep. "Wait! I do remember one other thing." He quickly said. "And what would that be?" I quickly asked him.
"I have heard that she been hitting towns lately that have new ruins by them. She also visited one when she was here." The bar keeps told me.
Hitting…places that have new ruins…?
Why…would she…? I wondered.
"Well that is somewhat helpful thank you. But are there any other rumors flying around about ruins by other towns?" I asked. "Yes, but only one. But it's a bit far away." The bar keeps warned me.
"That's fine." I quickly told him. "Okay. There's a rumor there's one by little rock." He quickly told me.
Little rock, huh?
Is she there…?
"I see…thanks for the information." I said throwing two hundred gella to him before leaving the tavern.
I don't get it…
Why is she…heading off to new ruins…?
Could she?
Could she be…searching for something?
"Wait…maybe she's searching for the same thing as I am? A…cure?" I wondered out loud.
Flash back…
I still have one wish from that day…from two years ago…
I wish to…
Save you more than anything.
"Idiot." I remembered saying to her. "What?" She asked me. "Stop doing that! I yelled grabbing onto her shoulders and quickly shaking her. "I hate it…I hate that you blame yourself! When I am at fault here!" I told her as I rested my head on her shoulder. "…what? What are you saying…?" She asked me.
Even now…I still…
"None of this would have happened to you…If I haven't fallen at protecting you. If I had just protected you from those damn demons…then you wouldn't be…" I started to say.
I still blame myself.
It's…my fault after all.
"Jet…none of this is your fault." Sara told me. "Oh? It isn't? But it's yours?" I asked her. "I…" She couldn't say anymore. "…The demons maybe gone. But…I still hold true to my words. I-I will not let you die…" I whispered to her.
"Jet…" She whispered to me. "I mean it…I-I will save you somehow…" I told her.
End of flash back…
Looking back now…
I can't help but wonder…
How the hell can I…promise something like that?
"I…I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to save you…" I whispered as I slowly left town.
How can one…cure an incurable sickness?
