Summary:
Hitomi wakes up to find herself in a cabin that holds a cat boy and an older girl than both of them. -- Van enters the city along with Merle and Allen. What will they find there?
~*~
Hitomi let her eyes flutter open and look around. It looked well kept for a cabin. She looked out one of the windows. Trees were everywhere. It looked dark. 'Must be late…' She mused. It was then her sleepiness mind halted. 'Where the hell am I?' She wondered. She started looking around frantically. Hitomi started to climb out of the bed she was sleeping in.
"Don't!" Said a voice from the floor. It said it groggily, still tired.
"Huh? Who's there?" Hitomi wondered aloud.
"AGH! Watch where you put your foot!"
"Huh oh, sorry." Hitomi said. The girl just nodded in response. When the girl went to the other side of the room Hitomi asked a question. "Where am I?" The girl looked over to her briefly, and put her hands back into the bowl.
"In a cabin."
"I noted that, thank you anyway!" Hitomi said sarcastically. The girl grinned. She walked back over to Hitomi and laid her down.
"You need more rest um…"
"Hitomi."
"Hitomi. You can call me Jin."

Van looked at the man in front of him. He seemed to have some difficulty directing his power towards the door because of his lashed wrists. The door looked like one of those ancient doors that hide treasure behind them, only if you can get through the brush and trees. Suddenly he heard the door start to creak open. The messenger gave a sigh of relief.
"Follow me, your majesty and his majesties companions."

"JIN!" Zatera said, running through the doors.
"What? I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with her shoulder! I think they might have used more strength on her than what they were supposed to!"
"I agree!" Hitomi said weakly. She was starting to fall asleep again, knowing she didn't need to worry about her safety here.
"I know Jin! But the thing is, is that the king of Fanailia is coming! I forgot to tell you that before!" Hitomi's eyes snapped open and she literally jumped out of the bed, tripping a little from her bad knee.
"Van!" She whispered. Tears sprang to her eyes. Tears of joy and pain put together, making a pain in her chest. "Van!" She whispered again as she got back onto the bed again and cried lightly into her hands.
"YOU KNOW HIM?!" Zatera said looking at the girl who was crying into her hands. He noted that he nodded her head slightly.
"You-You know wh-what?" Hitomi asked between sobs. "On earth, it felt like years when it was really only a week since I last saw him…"
"You mean you've seen him recently!" Jin asked.
"But that means that-that…" Zatera stuttered loss for words, "You're-You're…"
"Hitomi, the mystic moon girl? Does that work Zat?" Jin asked. Zat nodded lightly.
"I never thought I'd get to meet you! Much less save you!" He said.
"And I um…thank you for that…" Hitomi said looking at the ceiling nervously. Jin looked at Hitomi and noticed she was becoming tense.
"Zat…you might want to leave because of what I'm going to do next…"
"You aren't…you are…UGH! Bye!" Zatera said as he raced out of the door.
"Wh-what are you going to do-do?" Hitomi stuttered.
"It's best you don't know," Jin said, "Or the pain will hurt worse." Hitomi looked at her nervously.
"I don't think I want to do-do thi-this…" She stuttered again.
"It will help you heal faster, now turn your head, I don't think that you'll want to watch…" Jin said, there was a bit of worry in her voice. Hitomi did as she was told.
Suddenly Hitomi heard a large crack along with searing pain. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" She yelled, she felt a hand clamp over her mouth.
"Cry, it's quieter and it gets more out than yelling." Hitomi started crying uncontrolably, "Get some sleep Hitomi, you'll feel better in the morning, trust me." She saw Hitomi nod a little as she cried herself to sleep minutes later.

"I hope you didn't hurt her to much Jin!" Zatera said, tailing her.
"Yes I hurt her but she'll feel better in the morning!"
"You put the bone back in it's socket!"
"I know what I did Zat! This way she can heal faster!"
"She better!" He scoffed.

The three looked all over the crowd that was surrounding them. The ones that were closer to the castle seemed worse kept than those farther away from it. But Van did have to admit, they did not have any people dying on the streets, unlike other countries he had visited. The kings seemed to think that it was fashionable. Van just thought it was sick. When they got closer to the doors that led to the castle, they were again opened with magic. The guards, who were doing the magic, were wearing dark green clothes all over. They didn't seem like they could do much, they looked like lords of the castle instead of guards.
They opened up the doors and the other three trotted through. The trumpets blared and a woman came out who had black hair with silver and white streaks in it.
"Lord Van." She said curtseying. Van nodded his head. Merle and Allen followed his suit. "My guards will show you to your sleeping quarters. Jaseck over there, shall take care of your horses. She smiled at Van but he paid no attention as he walked towards the castle with servants carrying his bags whether he wanted them to or not.
