'Well, that's one thing right,' the Mountain Cat thought to herself. 'At least Ray won't bother me now.' There was a knock at her door. 'I wonder who that is.'
"Come in," she whispered. The door opened, and in walked in Kai. "Kai, what are you doing here?" confusion clear in her voice.
"I came to tell you something," he sat down on the desk chair. "Tyson is a dear friend to me, no matter how much it may seem the other way around... I wanted to know, why you wanted to come to Japan in the first place. Tyson really didn't want to come to see the others..." Mariah sat there, not sure what to do. Ray had just left a minute ago, and now Kai was here for who knows what reason.
"Listen, Kai," Mariah slurred, sleep tugging at her eyes. "I don't mean to be rude or anything, but I'm really sleepy. Could we continue this in the mourning?" he nodded his approval, and moved toward her. He took the blanket at the end of the bed, and covered her up.
"Believe it or not," he whispered, heading out of her door. "I am a good person. I don't know what's going on between you and Tyson, but any friend of his, I trust." With that, he was out the door.
'That was strange...' she thought, and she went to sleep, thinking about the brief and confusing conversation she had with Kai...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She was there again, in her dream real, THEIR dream realm.
'I wonder where he is,' she said, looking around. 'He has to be here somewhere...' she saw a flash of red, and she remembered something. A conversation she had in the past...
'Don't freight,' a voice said behind her. She spun around, making her hair swoosh behind her. What she saw amazed her.
It was a huge fire bird. By the phoenix's voice, she could tell it was a girl, and from her gleaming eyes, she could tell that the phoenix had a lot of power.
'O-okay,' the pink angel stuttered. 'Who are you?'
'You know me,' the fire bird said. 'I came here to make talking to Kai a little easier for you.'
Mariah thought for a moment, who could come to her dreams to help out Kai... Something hit her. It wasn't painful, she just... remembered...
//Flashback//
'Hey, Tyson,' she had said. Creeping into his study, she noticed a picture on the wall, and looked at it.
'Hey Mariah,' he said softly, not looking up. 'Is there anything you want?' 'Yes, why do you keep on drawing me?' She just said the first thing that came to mind, and not the carefully thought out speech. 'I mean, why do I matter so much to you that you'd take the time out of the day to just draw me?'
'*Just* draw you?' he said, with something hidden in his voice that the girl couldn't recognize. It was quickly gone. 'You are my guest, and I have to make you comfortable. I just happen to have gotten my best ideas when I was doing so, so you are, naturally, I my pictures.'
'Okay,' she said. She looked at the picture again. She noticed the other girl, drawn with extreme care, but she didn't mention it. 'Wonder what Dragoon would say...'
'Dragoon? What does he have to do with this?' Tyson asked, finally looking up.
'I saw him in my dreams...' the girl whispered. She turned to him. 'I'll make you a deal,' Tyson's grey eyes met her own, and he raised his eyebrow, curious as to what she was planning. 'If you do one certain thing again, we go to Japan, but if you don't do it, then we'll stay here. Deal?'
'What do you have in mind?' he asked, turning back to whatever he was doing.
'That doesn't matter,' the girl murmured. 'Just say yes, and then I'll tell you.' He thought for a moment, and met her eyes again.
'Alright...' he said, not knowing what to expect. 'What do I have to do?' The girl didn't expect this; she thought that he would have said no. She looked at the picture again, not knowing what to say.
'Don't draw me again...' she said in a barely audible voice. She looked at him, only to see that his eyes were diverted to the side. 'What's wrong Tyson,' she walked up to him. He was still looking away. She looked at his desk; only to see a picture... she smiled. 'I guess, I guess we're going, huh?' she looked up and looked into his eyes, once again...
//End Flashback//
She looked up at the fire bird, amazed at what she remembered.
'Why did I remember?' she asked herself more then the phoenix.
'So you could tell Kai...' the Phoenix said. 'He's your friend now, and he takes good care of his friends, as do I... sleep now, and you'll speak with him in the mourning...' The girl nodded, and snuggled into the phoenix's wing. 'Sleep now Mariah... I'll protect you while you sleep...'
