The smell of fresh rain greeted Tatsuki as Tibarn set her down. Their hair was plastered to their faces as she sat down; the view from the mountain stunned her. The hawk smiled as he sat down beside the laguz, wrapping a blanket around her for warmth.
"We'll be with Ike in two days, after 'The Eyes' and 'The Ears' report back on Ike's location.
He paced back and forth across the deck. I wish we knew where Naesala took Tatsuki... Then It'd be much easier to find her... Mordecai smiled at Ike's frustration, he responded differently than most beorc Mordecai had seen would.
"Ike, does Tatsuki's safety worry you?" Ike whizzed around as Soren suddenly appeared beside him. Two bird laguz landed on deck in front of Ike and smiled to him.
"We are 'The Eyes' and 'The Ears'. We protect Tibarn, king of the hawks, who has taken Tatsuki under his wing."
"She is in no harm?" The two bird laguz nodded to Ike. Soren stepped forward to talk, but was stopped by Ike, who asked his question. "May we see her?" The two laguz nodded again, before 'The Eyes' spoke.
"We were sent to find you, so that Tibarn may escort her to you."
"It is her desire to see you again, please bring the blue-furred laguz, Tatsuki worries about your safety. It would lift her heart to see all of you together safe." Ike nodded and watched the laguz fly off, before realizing he hadn't told them where the ship was headed.
"Wait!" The two laguz turned back to face Ike. "We'll wait in the land of the dragons for you." The laguz nodded before flying off.
(Sorry it took so long... Chapter 18 dissapeared, so I had to figure out why this was so far ahead... Sorry.)
