Sorry for the weeks delay.
A wish is a wish: Deep
Sarah pushes Jin in the side „So what was Li-Nae talking about? Do you have stomach problems?"
Jin clutches his side in pain „It's Baek-Jeong's fault! He lied about my condition when Li-Nae came and wanted to go shopping"
„Haaa..." She pats Jin's arm „If he lies like that again, call me, I'm going to butcher him"
He deadpans with a sweatdrop and glances at her „You're going to butcher the butcher?"
A twinkle appears before her „Damn right!"
He scratches his cheek with a sheepish look „At last you're strong"
She turns her head to him with a light frown „You're pretty strong, too..." She suddenly beams „And you make everyone's world brighter!"
He smiles doubtful „I don't think so"
I knew it! I just knew it!
She chops him on the head „Don't make yourself lower than you are" She says in an insulted voice and pouts „You're like family to me, straighten up!"
„Sorry, sorry" He apologized with regret.
Sarah sighs „Well, I'm off now. I'll visit you later when I'm done with homework"
She waves him goodbye and leaves for her house. Once she arrives, she takes out her books and starts her work.
You're not a human!
„...Isn't there a way to prevent things?" She mutters while patting her pets head „We should hurry and get to Jin, right, Darkness?" She wonders while facing the black weasel.

…
Sarah opens the door and sees the chaos. Baek-Jeong talking with Jin, Yi-Mae on the roof, Mu-Young and some woman argueing.
She stares at Jin dumbfounded with a raised eyebrow „Why is there an axe sticking in the ground before you?"
She walks up to him and kicks Baek-Jeong in the stomach.
He clutches his stomach „What the hell was that for?!"
She blanches at him „I don't know, I just had the feeling that axe sticking there is your fault"
A vein throbs on his forehead „Just be-"
An axe is lifted at Sarah's throat dangerously „Who the hell are you?! Get away from my fiance, he's my fiance!"
„Ha?" She looks at the woman threatening „Fiance?" A venoumos smirk on her lips „Not without my, his sisters, permission!"
„What sister?!" Jin yells shocked.
Ah-Ra bows before her „Sister-in-law"
„We had that joke already, you dumb idiot!" Baek-Jeong curses.
Sarah, meanwhile, looks pissed off „Didn't I say it just now? Not without my permission!"
The female Tal looks at her with stars in her eyes „Dear Sister-in-law, what do I have to do to gain your permission?"
The silver-haired Chachaoong backs away scared „Can't she get the message? Creepy..."
At least I have common sense!
„Your pet is more creepy..." Mu-Young mutters and then speaks louder „Where's your weasel, Sarah? You usually have it with you when you have a bag in your hand"
She looks at him and points at the roof where her pet Darkness is sitting atop Yi-Mae Tals head „He found a friend..."
Mu-Young is speechless and stares at the two on the roof „You gotta be kidding...! Your pet made a friend?!"
„Why are you so shocked about it?" Sarah wonders, feeling a bit insulted.
„It's so creepy!" The gunner shouts.
…
„Creepy, huh?" A dark aura forms around a smirking Sarah „Did you just say he's creepy~?"

Yawning, Sarah stretches. She slams the door open, startling the residents outside.
„Ah, you woke up? Sorry, Nunim" Jin apologizes immidantly.
„It's okay..." She mutters, still half-asleep „Where's Mu-Young and who's the old hag?"
While Ha Na Rin fumes, Jin tells his friend that Mu-Young already went to work.
„What about you, Nunim?" Jin questions „You need to get ready for school but aren't your things at your house?"
Can't you... smile for... me?
„I will go and pick them up, don't worry" She puts a hand behind her head „But I have a weird feeling today, so I'll go alone"
„You sure?" Jin asks worried.
„My home isn't that far, idiot, cease your worrying" She tells him with a friendly smile.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
„That still doesn't mean I know you" Sarah comments while appearing behind the Chachaoong who hide around her house.
The three of them jump in shock at her sudden appearance. She sighs annoyed and materializes a halberd.
„What is your business with me if I may ask?" She questions the three.
The Chachaoong regain their composure and look at her wary.
„I asked you something" Sarah reminds them.
Instead of answering, the three charge at her. She glances at her opponents who got into positions around her.
They run up to her and she jumps into the air, catching herself on a streetlantern. She looks down on them and swings herself on top of the lantern.
„You've got nerve..." She mutters while glaring at the ground.
Forgive me, I lost control over myself for a moment...
Two of them jump behind and in front of her, aiming their weapons, a gun and sword, at her. She loses her dark glare and sighs exhausted, scratching her cheek she looks away when the two get impaled by black spikes that shoot out of the ground.
The third grows scared and shoots at her in panic but she blocks the bullets skillfully with her halberd, a near transparent creature grabbing hold of the Chachaoong.
„That's why you should have answered and left" She informs them with a hollow tone „Because I'm not some unexperienced youngster like you"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sarah goes over to a confused Jin „What's wrong? What was that, sure looked strange, that stunt?"
„I don't know..." The boy answeres with several sweatdrops on his head, then he looks at her and notices something „Say, are you alright? Did something happen? You missed out a lesson and you've got a scratch on your cheek..." /It's bleeding a bit, nunim.../
She touches her cheek „I'm okay, nothing happened. I must have scratched myself a bit with a nail?" She replies uncertain.
He frets over her little injury worried „But it's bleeding!"
You'll die. You'll die! You'll die, you forsaken idiot!
She smiles „It's okay, a scratch won't kill me!"
Something comes out of the ground beside them and they look there startled. While Jin converses with Mu-Young's Yongma, Sarah looks into the direction the stranger ran into.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sarah and Jin are going to Jin's house together with Yi-Mae who decided to show up earlier. Once they arrive they get to know that Mu-Young was attacked while working.
Sarah perks up „You were attacked as well? ...Weird, I thought these three would still be hanging on trees like forgotten laundry"
„Nunim! You said you nothing happened!" Jin complains and an arrow stabs the girl.
I know that you're lying. Remove your coat
„I was only attacked by two Chachaoongs" Mu-Young tells her „Both with grey hair. One had something above his mouth and the other over his eyes"
She looks thoughtful „Then they weren't the same. Two of my attackers were brown-haired and the last black-haired" She trails off „They seriously lacked experience..."
„But are you sure you're alright, sister-in-law?" Ah-Ra wonders.
A tick-mark appeares on the silver-haired girls head „I'm alright, I used rope to bind them on tree branches somewhere deep in the forest"
„Are they gonna be okay?" Baek-Jeong asks pale.
She shifts her eyes to him and shrugs uncaringly cold „I guess so,... that will help them gain experience in how to escape when they are tied up like that and not to mess with me!"
