~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* If you look at chapter 3 you'll see I changed the ending!

"Hello Van Fanel, it's very nice to meet you, I am Hitomi Kanzaki."

She then took his hand and gave it a firm, friendly shake. Van shook his head out of shock and returns the friendly greeting. And when he finally had his voice back,

"You're alive, how?"

"Well aren't you straight forward one?" Hitomi replied with a smirk.

Van blushed, "Well I'd like to see how you would react to someone you've heard countless times, that has be eaten years ago, and then suddenly they save you and just hay 'Hi'. Err..Thanks by the way for all you've done to help me."

Hitomi couldn't help it, 'he looks so cute there blushing' she burst out laughing.

"Yes , suppose so." She smiled.

*Van's P.O.V*

Well at least she has good humour, for a minute it thought she would feed me to the dragons for that remark.. WAIT-A_MINUTE DRAGONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"We wouldn't be in a dragon's cave now would we?" I asked, I mean hello just because they haven't killed her doesn't mean I get to live.

"Yes, but don't worry, you're with me which means you're safe. I've already told them not to eat you."

YES! That's a relief, wait, TOLD them! That can't be right.

"You mean you can speak to them, I though that was a myth?"

"Oh yes of course I can although sometimes I would prefer to speak to my own species once in a while." She responded to me with amusement and sadness written over her face, but I could tell, I've felt the same on my own on too many occasions.

"Oh, well I'm all ears if you want to speak with me. I mean I've always wanted to meet you, and now that I know you're a girl I have to say I'm very curious as to how you could learn to survive out here and these weapons, some I myself struggle with." I ramble as I try to encourage her to open some more, doesn't look like she has in a while.

She smiles in return, DAMMIT why do I have to fight off a blush? I mean I've had women in Fanelia flirt with me all the time.

"Well many people travel through the forest and in return for protection along their journeys I often receive things such as weapons. I've made friends with some swordsmen and healers and they offer to teach me, although they cannot stay long I often teach myself. You learn faster when it could mean the difference in being safe or hunted the next day. And my other friends have taught me many things since I was a child so it comes as second nature to me." Wow, lots of info there, training herself wow, maybe she could spar with me sometime. Wait.

"Other. friends?" I ask, who else could there be?

"Why, the creatures of the forest of course, they've raised me. Hmm.. I know why don't you come with me tomorrow if your feel up to it and I can show you."

Why does she trust me so much? Maybe because I'm the price or something or maybe she feels like I do, it's like talking with a friend I've know for years, not just recently met.

"I would like that very much Hitomi, thank you."

Is it just me or did her cheek just so pink. Naaaaa... maybe these herbs are affecting my sight.

"Alright we should sleep now, it is late and we have an exciting day ahead. Good night Van." She takes one of the blankets and lays down and the ground to sleep. Only now do I realize I must be in her bed, oh well tomorrow she can have it back.

I lie down to and watch her emerald eyes close slowly with a small warm smile on her face. 'Beautiful. WAIT I only just met her, bad thoughts BAD!'

"G'night Hitomi." I whisper as sleep engulfs me.

Yes tomorrow would be a most exciting day.
