Why am I ever here? Sye continued to ask herself as she walked behind Kara. After a small hike, they stopped in an empty part of the world. The older girl whipped out the microphone once again and clicked it on. "Where are you?" she asked, sounding frustrated. "I want to get out of here now." No response. He better not be sleeping, she thought, growling to herself. "What's wrong?" Thinking for a moment, Kara took a deep breathe. "Wake up, you idiot!" she yelled into the microphone. To Sora, it was a loud voice with a loud, high-pitched squealing background. He took off the headset quickly, biting his bottom lip from yelling. He put it back on and growled at her. "What the hell was that for!" he snapped. "For you not answering. Now where are you? I want to get out of here as soon as possible," she said more calmly this time.
Sye blinked and turned around. Was something behind them? She felt it, or maybe she was going crazy. She wouldn't be surprised if she was. Must've been nothing, she thought and turned back around to face Kara. Carefully she listened as a create was moved. This area is empty except for us. Who's there? she thought as she turned around again. Nothing, once again. What was wrong with her? "What'd you mean you won't be her for an hour!"
"Don't yell. I'm close to going deaf. Remember? These are crap microphones."
"Never mind that! What the hell was we suppose to do now?"
"Waiting sounds good to me."
"We don't have all the time in the world, you know!"
"I know, alright! You don't have to yell either. I can hear you just fine if you talk normally." Sighing, the girl nodded. "Fine, we'll be waiting in the same spot then."
A click signaled to Sora that she was the one to turn the devise off first this time. "The baka doesn't listen to me and this is what happens…" she muttered, putting the headset away. "Well, might as well get something to eat real-" she stopped as she turned around to face Sye, only to find as she looking behind the creates around them. "Sye, what the hell are you doing?" she hissed. The girl blinked and stood straight. "I saw something and I wasn't sure what it was," she said. Kara sighed. "Well, come on. Are you hungry?" Sye nodded. "Very!" she said, her face lighting up at the mentioning of food. After living on very cheap food for almost 3 months, it was a change to eat something the cost over 5 munny.
"Good. Because Sora was a baka and needs an hour to get here," Kara said, growling slightly as she did. There it is again! Sye thought as her eyes widened. "Something's following us…" she muttered almost silently. The older girl looked behind her as she stopped. "What are you tal- Your right. Why didn't this happen before?" "Because you were side-tracked." Thinking for a moment, she nodded. "Well, let's go. I'm sure it's nothing." It didn't feel like it. Heart pounding, Sye looked at Kara and then behind her again. I'm going to get killed… She took a step toward the other way. Thankfully Kara didn't scene she was gone. Maybe she did. She sure didn't show it.
"There's something back here and I'm going to find out what…" she muttered before looking behind a create. This time there was something. A very dark figure moved as it turned to face Sye, bright yellow eyes staring at her. She blinked, staring back at it. "I've never really seen you before," she said and took a step back. "You killed my family…" she muttered, taking another step back. The Heartless jumped closer to her. She then turned around and ran back toward Kara. Gods help me! she prayed as she caught up with her. "Kara-san!" she forced out, taking gasps of air at a time. "About time you came back," she snapped as she glared down at the girl.
"There-" she tried to get out, failing and she took more air. "Hmm?" she stopped and turned around. Taking another gasp, she pointed behind her. "I…saw a…Heartless!" she said finally. "Crap! They're here already! Great..." she muttered and grabbed Sye's arm as she ran back toward the creates. "Looks like you can some training in today, too," Kara smirked as she looked at Sye, who faces was lit up. Yes! I have a kyouyu again! she thought gleefully as she was graded by her new kyouyu. Now that she had a real chance to get her breath back and sit down, Kara looked her in the eye. "Where did you see it?" she asked. The girl pointed to a small group of stacked boxes.
She nodded. "Alright. You stay here and don't move. Just yell if something comes up. Got it?" The girl nodded as Kara ran over to the boxes, Keyblade in hand. Looking behind the creates, she blinked. Nothing was here; not even a trace that Heartless have been there. "Oh joy… A wild goose chase. Just what we need…" she muttered as she put a hand over her stomach. "And I could be eating right now, but no. I have to watch her when she can barely do anything in the first place…" she complained as she sighed. "There's nothing here! I think your going crazy," she snickered slightly as she blinked. Wouldn't she have said something by now? Looking over at the girl, she looked in front of her; At least 30 or more Heartless. Some stood on top of each other, staring at her with un-blinking eyes. "Kuso!" she snapped before throwing her weapon through the middle part of the group. As her weapon returned to her, the Heartless started after her.
"Kara-san!" Sye finally snapped to attention as she stared at the Heartless and quickly ran to her teacher's side. "Follow my lead…" she muttered. Sye blinked. "Don't tell me you can't fight." She shook her head. "I can!" "Then follow my lead!" she snapped as her free hand suddenly alit in a light, purple-is haze. Sye did the same, but her blue. "Now just attack normally and they should be gone quickly," she said before running towards them. "Wait! Get back! I can take myself!" Kara blinked. "Okay… I don't know how you are going to do that, but have fun," she said before jumping back next to her student.
Focus, Sye. You can do this… she thought before clearing her mind. Putting both her hands up, she walked slowly up to the nearest Heartless and light touched the ground, muttering incoherent words. The ground beneath the creatures shook lightly as it opened, swallowing the group of Heartless and then closed almost as suddenly as it opened. Kara stared in awe and walked where the hole once was. It was perfectly solid. "They never taught me that…" she muttered and then stared at Sye. "You have to teach me that," she said, smiling. "Now let's go get some food." Sye's face once again lit up as she got up off the ground and followed Kara.
After finally eating, the two went back toward the ally way, taking their places on some creates. "He said one hour and it's been almost two…" Kara murmured as she stared at the sky, which was now mostly moon-lit with few stars. Sye on the other hand, had laid down on some of the wooden boxes to take a nap. It has been a long day, and she had a feeling eating actual food had made her this way. Taking out the headset once again, she flipped it on. "Kara! Finally! What the hell were you doing!" She smiled as she held the microphone to her head. "Getting to know my student. Where are you?" Sora blinked.
"Wait, you have student?"
"Why do you think I came here in the frist place? The council wants to me train her some."
"Okay… Well, I'll be there in a few."
Thank the gods… she thought as she muttered something. "Do you think you could come and get us on foot? She's sleeping." Silence was her reply, followed by a sigh. "Fine, whatever. I'll be there in a few…" he said as he flipped the headset off.
