Tsuki's eyes slowly open and she looks around and sighs seeing she's in her room. The door slowly opens catching her attention and she looks at it to find Rowen standing there. "Hey, how are you feeling?" Rowen asks before Tsuki could ask him.

"I'm really exhausted. What happened, I don't remember anything after the arrow pierced your shoulder?" Tsuki asks. Rowen sighs and sits on the edge of the bed.

"Well a symbol apeared on your head and you saved our lives with some of your own energy." Rowen says.

"Stop kidding around." Tsuki sighs. Rowen gives that I'm-no-lieing look and Tsuki blinks and moans "shit" while rolling her eyes.

"You sound like you know about what happened." Rowen smiles.

"My father was from a decendent of mage's. The thing is the power slowly died off until no one had powers anymore. That's the only explaination I have so far." Tsuki says then looks at Rowen and blushes looking away. "I probably sound really stupid." Rowen smiles and cups her cheek in his hand and makes her look at him.

"Not at all." He smiles softly. Tsuki can't help but let a small smile grace her lips. "I think you might want to talk to Mia though. By the way what was with the priestest thing?" Rowen asks.

"Don't ask me smurf boy." Tsuki giggles getting a stern look from him. "By the way how's your shoulder?" she tilts her head to the side a little.

"Could be better." Looks at his bandaged shoulder. He wasn't wearing a shirt. (*drools* ahhahahhaahah sexy) Tsuki sits up and touches his shoulder lightly and before they both knew what happened a purple light came from her hand and it healed the wound over. "How'd you do that?"

"I don't know." Tsuki looks at her hand her eyes wide in shock. She looks at her hand just as Ryo and Sage come walking in.

"I was wandering where you were Rowen. Come on I can heal your wound now." Sage says smiling.

"Tsuki already did." Rowen whispers.

"What'd you say I didn't hear you?" Sage says but Ryo did and he had a confused look on his face.

"I said Tsuki already did." Rowen says more loudly keeping his eyes on Tsuki who was blushing madly with embarasement cause she knew she was going to be hounded with questions. Before Sage could even open his mouth Mia came running in with some papers.

"I figured out what the cloak guy ment by 'Priestest'." Mia says exhausted. Everyone looks at her. "Well it seems a girl with mage blood has to be chosen every twenty years in this other plane. They call her a 'Priestest' because she will be sacrificed in place of the rulling priestest of their world who can only die by the hand of a mage. The girl that is choosen has powers hidden deep within herself and will awaken when it's her time. The other plane has fifteen days to find this girl and sacrifice her. The girl that is choose finds her true love within the fifteen days and has to choose when the time comes between him and her own life. Once one girl chooses to give her life up for the man she loves the search will be complete and there would be no more sacrifices." Mia reads off the paper. Tsuki gulps her eyes wide.

"So no one has ever choosen to give their lives up I take it?" Ryo asks. Mia shakes her head and notices that Tsuki was a little pale and so was Rowen and they were looking at eachother.

"oh my gosh." Mia gasps. Tsuki tares her gaze off of Rowen to look at Mia.

"What?" Tsuki asks a little worried.

"You have to choose between yourself and.and.and..Rowen." Mia whispers. Sage looks at Rowen who had a terrible blush on his face.

"Mia how do you know it's me? I mean come on you just can't pick a person." Rowen says fighting his blush down.

"Rowen can I talk to you?" Sage asks crossing his arms. Rowen looks at him and nods then gets up walking out of the room closely followed by Sage. Sage pushes Rowen into their room and sits him down after shutting the door. "You are falling in love with her aren't you?" Sage asks. Rowen looks down with a sigh and nods slightly. "You need to stop now." Sage says.

"How can I stop myself from loving someone?" Rowen asks looking at his best friend. Sage opens his mouth to say something but couldn't think of anything to say to that.

That night Tsuki sits outside on the back porch looking out at the stars. She looks over her shoulder hearing the back door open and sees that it's Rowen. "You should be in bed it's well past midnight." Rowen says taking a seat beside her.

"I'm not tired. I slept all day so I thought I'd come out and enjoy the stars." She smiles then looks up at the sky. Rowen looks up as well.

"It's a beautiful night." Rowen whispers. Tsuki sighs and looks at him.

"You're scared shitless admit it." Tsuki says. Rowen can't help but chuckle.

"You're right, I am." Rowen says while still chuckling. Tsuki smiles softly.

"Don't worry I'm not going to choose my own life. I'm going to choose your life. You're going to be the one that's spared." Tsuki says. Rowen looks at her then takes her hand gently in his and kisses the back. She blushes gently but before she could say anything Rowen's lips were covering her own. Her blush deepens but she finds herself kissing him back. They slowly break the kiss but only for breath.

"We're going to fight these fifteen days and survive. Both of us I swear it." Rowen whispers softly. Tsuki smiles gently.
