The days that passed in the desert were like a dream. The heat was so intense he could scarcely keep track of time. His vision started blurring, blending the colors of the sun and sand. He felt thoroughly fatigued. Then he fell unconscious letting the sand comfort during his sleep.

Leo woke up. It was night. Next to him there was a small fire burning merrily. He was lying on a couple of blankets. Suddenly someone started to talk.

"So, you've finally woken up. It took you long enough." It was a woman. She looked to be about eighteen, with jet black her and piercing green eyes. She was strikingly beautiful. She spoke with a cheeky confidence.

"When I found you, you were nearly dead. You were stupid to come out here with out water. You could have died." At this she rolled her eyes. She was starting to annoy Leo. "Well, do you speak or did I save a mute?"

"My name is Leo. I came into the desert because the Renegade was after me." He stuck his hand out, but she ignored it. He noticed she had a very long black dagger tucked in the belt of her pants. He reached down to check if he had his gun when he noticed he was naked. He immediately started blushing.

"Oh, you've noticed I took your clothes off? I had else you would have died much quicker." She smiled at this comment as if she owned him now. "My name is Jasmine. I come from the mountains in the east."

"You mean the Mysterious Mountains ?" Leo asked.

"Yes," answered Jasmine," from the Mysterious Mountains.?
