When Kisara awoke to find two brown eyes looking at her worriedly. "Kisara! Are you alright?" It was Kyle.
"Uhgnn." She groaned as she slowly sat up.
"What happened?" She asked, after blinking several times.
"You tripped and went unconscious." Vane explained.
Kisara jumped out of the bed.
"Well I feel a lot better now! Let's get going!" She said happily.
Her friends nodded and followed her out the door.
As she went out, she noticed the assist master smiling at her and asking her, "Would you like to be an assist?"
"Um… but I'm not level 15 yet." She explained with a smile.
"But yes you are! My readings indicate it!" He said firmly.
"I think he's right…but how did you get from Level 8 to Level 15 overnight?" Vane asked curiously.
"Maybe its because she beat up that clockwork and killed it!" Chrissie squealed.
"You know about that?!" She asked surprised.
"Well, we saw the Luia and your sword, so we pretty much pieced it together." Kyle said shrugging his shoulders.
"Oh. I had intended to keep it a secret…" She said blushing slightly.
"It's ok! You can trust us!" Shade said with a wide grin.
"Yeah, she can trust us! But not you!" Said one of the newer members of the party, named Brina playfully.
"Hey!" He said, attempting to chase her. The two laughed and ended up toppling over.
"You guys are such babies." Brent said, who was also another new member.
"Yeah and your too mature!" Brina said as she stuck out her tongue.
The assist master ignored this and asked again. "Well, would you like to be an assist?"
"No thank you, I'm going to be a Magician." She exclaimed politely.
"Well I can tell you that the Magician master is in Saint Morning." He said, pointing to the Magic Shopkeeper.
"She can give you a blinkwig to transport there."
"Ok thank you!" Kisara said, and scurried over to the shopkeeper.
Her blue clothing stunned Kisara. Kisara suddenly felt shy.
"May I help you?" She asked coolly.
"Um yeah, may I have a blinkwig to SaintMorning?"
"Yeah, that's 800 penya." The girl said boredly.
"Alright. Thanks." Kisara replied.
"Good Luck Kisara! We'll wait for you to get back!"
Kisara's heart welled up as she let the orange light surround her.
"I'm going to try so hard." She whispered.
It had been a few hours since she had first met the magician master.
"well, this isn't so bad." She said optimistically, buying a Flarine blinkwig and crushing it.
"Now all I have to do is get some twinkle stones from my bank account." She said happily.
As she entered Flaris, she could see a large group sitting around the lodelight.
There she saw her friends.
"Kyle! Chrissie!" She called out happily as she noticed the two.
"Hey! Are you done yet?"
"I'm almost done! All I need to do is get my twinkle stones and I'm good to go!" She replied happily.
"Ok! How about we meet you in Saint Morning for lunch?"
"Ok!" She replied.
Kisara went over to the public office.
Wow the flowers are so beautiful!
The fresh orange flowers swayed slightly as people flew over or rushed by.
She smiled and talked to Juria.
Juria led her inside and let her take out her twinklestones.
"Thanks!" She said, and ran out of the office happily.
"YES! FINALLY!" She cried happily and leapt forward.
She ran to the magic shop once more and saw the girl, but ignored her attitude.
She crushed the blue, glowing blingwig and felt herself being lifted into the space above her.
Slowly SaintMornings cool gray stone streets came into view.
She rushed forward to where the Magician master stood and held out the things for her.
"Congratulations young lady, you're a magician." The lady smiled down at her.
Kisara leapt for joy and ran back to the Magic Shop.
"Hey do you have any robes for magicians?" She asked.
His crinkled smile widened as he led her inside.
Kisara entered an old, musty room. Beautiful paintings covered the wall, each of magicians.
One had striking red hair and a mischievous grin on her face. Her eyes were oddly blue, and a strange feeling of remembrance entered her mind.
"Who's that?" She pointed to the old painting.
"That, is one of the three Children of the Goddess Aikio." He explained.
"Oh. Isn't her name SuRui?" She asked, racking her brain for the name.
"That's right young lady." He said warily.
"Anyway, here are the female magician clothes." He continued.
Kisara gaped at the rich blue colored robes. Her fingers glided across the fabric gently.
"Wow…but there is only a hat and some gloves I can wear now…I'll just buy some for later." She said thoughtfully.
He nodded in agreement and took the shining coins from her outstretched hand.
"Ok thanks!!" She called as she ran out of the shop, her new clothes and weapons (which she had already bought) in hand.
There's something familiar about that girl…
The shopkeeper said thoughtfully.
I wonder…
He looked at the two siblings of SuRui.
And sure enough, there was Kisara, plain as day.
He staggered backwards.
A goddess has just entered and left my shop.
"Hmmm… I wonder what I should wear..." She was staring at the hat and gloves, then noticed her other package.
Oh! I know! I'll wear this cat suit!" She said.
"I'm going to wear this for awhile." She said smiling.
As she put it on, she noticed how incredibly short the black cat dress was.
"Oh boy…this is going to be fun." She grumbled to herself.
She slipped on the cat ears, which seemed to melt into her head.
"What the-?" She was taken a back, and noticed that the ears twitched.
"Weird." She said nervously.
Suddenly a gust whipped around her, making her hair tie loosen and let her silky silver hair down.
"Oh crud! Well, I'll just get it later I suppose." She grumbled.
Kisara looked out into the crowd and saw her friends sitting in the grass.
Nervously she pulled down the cat suit and walked forward.
I look like a Stripper!
Kyle looked up as he chuckled softly. As he did so he saw a girl nervously walking towards them.
He then realized who it was.
The timid, blue eyes captivated him.
Kisara's silver hair flowed gently behind her as she walked.
Cat ears were on her head, and he knew the outfit.
She was absolutely the most beautiful thing he thought he had ever seen.
"Kyle?" Her soft voice called timidly.
All he said was, "Wow."
Everyone turned and Chrissie jumped up and hugged Kisara tightly.
"You look sooo cute!!!" She squealed happily.
"Cute? More like drop dead gorgeous." Shade said flashing a smile.
Kisara blushed slightly.
"You are so perverted." Brina snorted.
"You have to admit, she looks awesome." Brent said shoving Brina.
"ok! OK! I get it! I look ok, now can we please just eat?" She said giggling.
She sat down next to Kyle.
" So what have you guys been up to?" She asked curiously as she began to nibble on a biscuit she had pulled out.
"Oh nothing much, just stocking up and getting ready to go back to Flarine and go into Mars Mine." Shade answered.
Kisara froze
Mountains that Climb to the Heavens…
Behind the door…
"That sounds great!" She said cheerfully.
"Hey look! Over there!" Brina chirped cheerfully.
"Ohh what's that sound?" Chrissie said curiously as she stood up and began walking towards the sound.
"I think it's…music" Kisara said.
"Oh that's right! I heard the mods talking about some festival that would be held in Saint Morning!" Brina chirped.
"Oh that sounds fun! Come on guys let's go!" Kyle said excitedly. Everyone except Brina and Kisara rushed ahead.
"Kisara, can I talk to you about something?" She asked sweetly.
'Um sure…" But before Kisara could say anything else, Brina took her arm and shoved her into the alleyway.
Kisara stumbled and fell back, surprised.
"I want you to get something straight little missy!" Brina said angrily.
"Kyle, is MINE!"
"Wha- What are you talking about?" Kisara asked bewildered.
"Oh you know perfectly well what im talking about. Did you see the way he was looking at you?" Brina's voice grew harsher by the second.
"…" Kisara thought about for a moment. He was staring at her.
"So if you think you can cozy up to him, your dead wrong. If I see you flirting with him I will find a way to make your life miserable got it?" Brina continued.
"…um yeah."
"Good!" Brina's normal, sweet voice said.
Brina flounced away and left Kisara in the alley, completely stunned at what just happened.
She sighed and rubbed her now bleeding arm.
"What am I going to do?" She asked sadly.
