Author's Note: IT FEELS GOOD TO HAVE THE COMPUTER BACK!!!!!!! Sorry about the long wait, BUT this time I have a good excuse…….
Phoenix: Simple she got grounded.
Crystal: I was getting to that!
Phoenix: Crystal all the readers are giving death glares if you don't get the story going again.
Crystal: Oh really? *Looks around and noticing all the angry readers with knives and guns and etc.* Your right…….Okay here's the 7th chapter.
Jamie dragged himself through the forest, "Man! I can't believe I got lost!" He had been walking around for hours, but no sign of humanity anywhere. Suddenly he heard the sounds of horses.
"I'm saved!" He ran towards the sound, and when he came onto a path he noticed a guy on a horse with a dark cloak, his long brown hair flowing down his back. He looked down at Jamie.
"Who are you!?!?!" Jamie jumped a few feet back.
"Jamie" (Author's Note: Damn I forgot his last name!)
"Jamie?" Jamie looked behind the first guy and noticed someone else.
"LEON!!!!" Yep Leon Tauros! (Author's Note: My here ^ . ^)
"Jamie what are you doing here?"
"I was with Bit and Leena, we got attacked, and I got lost, and Bit's..." Jamie shut his mouth with his hand, before he knew it Leon eyes narrowed.
"WHAT!?!?!?!?!"
"WA…WAIT!!!!! IT'S NOT BIT'S FAULT!!!!"
"HE PROMISED ME THAT HE WOULDN'T LEAVE THE CASTLE!!!!"
"I have a feeling that this Bit was not involved in it," Brad said, Jamie looked at him amazed by his calmness.
"Who are you?" Jamie asked.
"Brad, that's all you need to know."
"Okay, Leon!"
"Yeah!" He was still pretty pissed off about Leena being in the wilderness.
"Bit got an arrow in his shoulder, and I had to run off to find the horses, and I got lost."
"Well, there's one of your horses," Brad said pointing to a direction. Jamie squinted his eyes, and noticed in the trees was indeed his horse. He turned back to Brad for a second before running to catch the horse.
"I hate you." Brad chuckled at the comment.
*******
Bit started to gain consciousness, we slowly his eyes, and noticed a form at the side of him. He smiled at the sleeping form of Leena Tauros next to him. He slipped away from her, carefully not to wake her up, and examined his shoulder.
While he was examining his shoulder he didn't know that Leena was waking up as well, "Bit?"
"Hmm," He looked behind him, "Good morning Leena or is it still afternoon."
"I don't know, how's your shoulder?" She said pointing to his wound.
"Fine, you did a nice job at cleaning it up."
Leena blushed, "Well you're the one that saved me from it."
"But afterwards it was you who saved me," Bit smiled one of those amazing smiles that he does, making Leena blush more. He took a few steps forward and looked around.
"What are you looking for?"
"Looking for a horse…. There's one!" He jogged over into the bushes for a minute and came back with one of the horses.
"Where's the other one?"
"It must have run off, we'll have to share."
Leena's face got even redder, "Oh, Okay." Bit hopped on the horse and held out to Leena. She accepted it and hopped on behind Bit. She wrapped her arms around his waist so that she wouldn't fall off.

Shiko was trying to string her bow and arrows, but it didn't seem to work out.
"AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!" She threw it on the ground and folded her arms. Someone from behind her picked up the arrows and bow, and walked over to her.
"Ya know, you need patience to handle these types of things."
"Raiko I can't get it! I've been at for days!" He walked next to her and put the bow in her hands and took out an arrow.
"Let's see how far you are?" Shiko made a face then sighed. She tried to string it but instead of the arrow shooting forward, the bow shot forward.
She turned to Raiko and put her hands on her hips waiting for an answer, "Well?"
"You need a lot of work."
"Humph thanks for your sympathy." Raiko laughed and put the bow once again into Shiko's hands. He then took out an arrow and placed into the bow and took her hands and placed it the proper way.
"That's the right way," he whispered in her ear. He let go and walked off, while Shiko stared at his retreating figure.
*****
ZOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!! "BULL'S EYE!!!!! AGAIN!!!!!" Shiko jumped up and down with excitement. This would be the tenth time she got the arrow to get the arrow in the little spot in the center, she couldn't wait to brag to Raiko. She noticed Raiko coming towards her while in a serious thinking state.
"Rai!!!" He looked up at the sound of his new nickname that Shiko had given him; he walked faster towards her.
"Hey Shiko I need you to follow me."
"Why?"
"It's a surprise and close your eyes." Shiko gave him a pouty face and then reluctantly closed her eyes. Raiko started leading her to the surprise, after a while Shiko had to question.
"Where are you taking me?" she giggled.
"Okay now open your eyes." She opened her eyes to find her elders.
"What's going on?" she asked. The eldest elder stepped forward.
"Young Shiko, all the others and I have been wondering for quite some time if you would be our leader."
She gasped, "You mean like the chief?" Everyone nodded; she turned towards Raiko who also nodded.
"You're the only one that has this type of ability."
She turned back to the elder, "But Raiko is a much better selection than me!"
Raiko put a hand on her shoulder, "Don't worry if you need any help than just ask. So are you going to be out leader?" Everyone stared at her waiting for an answer. Shiko fiddled with her long red hair that was now in one braid.
"I'll do it!" Everyone looked relieved. The Eldest walked in front of her.
"You look so much like our belated leader Kieran."
"I do?"
"Yes but she past away about 15 years ago."
"Did she have any relatives?"
"Yes, I was her father, and Raiko is her son." Shiko turned towards Raiko with a shocked expression.
Raiko replied, "I was 5 when my mother died, she died shortly after giving birth to my younger sister."
"Are you saying that you think that I'm Kieran's daughter?" Shiko asked in disbelief. Everyone nodded.
"You look exactly like my daughter, and the babe also had emeralds as eyes, she got that from her father. You also have the emeralds in those eyes of yours." The elder explained.
"But what happened to me after Kieran died?"
"Your father took you with him. We never heard from him since."
Raiko hugged Shiko from behind, "But now my little sister is back!"
"Yes! And now for the crowning of our new leader!" The elder took something out of his cloak and placed it around Shiko's forehead. (Author's Note: It's hard to explain. *shrugs*) In the center was a dazzling jewel, a sapphire.
Everyone started to bow, the elder bowed a little in front of her. She turned towards Raiko who bowed. Shiko looked around at all the people bowing, "I will do my best to help all of you. My family," she whispered the last part. Raiko walked up to her and put a hand on her shoulder and smiled. Shiko smiled back. 'My family.'
