"thanks… what bout you aren't you going to eat?" hawk asked the priestess
" no thanks… I saw a river near here so I'm going to wash myself" rane went inside the tent and took her clothes
Meanwhile
"what're we doing here?!" the assassin asked the wizard
"let's just say I have a new mission for you" the wizard smiled
"what is it?" the assassin asked
" I want you to make her fall for you" hao grinned
"what?!" the assassin was shocked
"make her fall in love with you! That's all!" the wizard smiled
"how?!"
"let's start with this accident" he pushed the assassin and he fell in the cliff
"REMEMBER!! DON"T COMEBACK IF YOU DIDN'T FINISH YOUR MISSION!!!"
the wizard shouted at him and disappeared
Meanwhile when Rane reached the river…. Before she took a bath and got naked she saw something she ran towards it and "a man?" Rane healed him a couple of times
He let out a cough "hey are you ok?" Rane asked the masked man
"aww, huh?... yes I'm ok…" the man saw her eyes and he stared at her face for a long time making her blush furiously
"you're… you're an assa!!" before she could finish her sentence the assassin shut her up using his finger this made Rane blush even more
"shh…." The assassin pulled her and used his skill hide she had to stick to his body so that she could hide too. After few seconds a group of aggressive monsters appeared and looked blood thirsy. After few minutes they were finally gone
"how'd you?" the priestess looked at the assassin
"I'm an assassin it's normal I could sense them" the assassin looked at her face
"right…." Suddenly Rane realized she was clinging to him. She withrew from her position and blushed furiously again
"aahh…." The assassin put his right hand on his side then he fainted. Rane panicked
"I should call hawk but the monsers might come back again…" Rane sighed she dragged him below the shade of a tree and removed his upper clothing to see what was wrong…. She removed the assassin's mask and it revealed a very handsome face…. She looked at him and blushed again "what's wrong with me!!! yeah he's hot and all but…" she sighed
when she removed his garments she saw a deep cut on the assassin's side she healed it at once and disinfected it…. She tore a part of her uniform nad used it to bandage a little part of his wound…. Then she dried his clothes…. While he was sleeping she decided it was the right time for her to take a bath
"wow.. the water feels great!!" then she remembered her brother again…
"shio… remember when you fell on the river because you were trying to catch me a big fish…. You almost drowned…" she smiled and looked at the skies
After like an hour she was already dressed and went beside the assassin. The assassin regained conciousness but he's still weak
"hey, how're you feelinG?" the priestess smiled at him… he noticed a piece of her skirt was torn "what happened to your uniform…? Did the monsters attack you?... If so…"
before he could finish the priestess automatically answered "no, the monsters didn't attack me… really…." The priestess smiled and the assassin noticed he didn't have his mask his upper graments and he had some sort of a cloth in his wound.
"thank you…." The assassin blushed as he said this
"sir… uhm.. may I know your name..?" the priestess asked the blue-haired assassin
"me… I'm Kizuki… but you can call me Kira…" the assassin looked at the priestess as if examining her… "may I know your name?"
"I'm Rane… nice to meat you sir Kira" the priestess smiled at him… He went near the priestess and touched her angelic face… the priestess was shocked and she was blushing furiously again…. "you have a beautiful face…but why do you seem so….sad…" the assassin stared at her eyes.. the priestess was now furious yet something inside her felt good "I…" Rane looked down
"sorry… I didn't mean to…" the assassin apologized and moved away from her
"it's ok…" the priestess blushed again….
Meanwhile hawk was already looking for Rane who was gone for 5 hours now
"where could she be?! " hawk was going crazy
"you have the same eyes" the girl looked at him
"with who?" the assassin went near her again
"my brother… " the priestess looked down and expressed a great sorrow… the assassin felt bad… because he knew he was the one responsible of her brother's death… he cupped her chin making her look at him…
"Don't be sad… If you want to I could replace your brother"
Rane was confused "replace my brother?... of course not… but why would he want to"
Rane felt her heart beat fast and felt a pain on her chest… she let out tears again…
The assassin looked at her and wiped her tears… she hugged her and tried to comfort her… "don't cry… I'll make sure your never going to cry again…"
With this the priestess felt better but she still was confused why would a stranger cared for her so much…. But she did't care now… she felt happy…. And so did he….
"thank you.." the priestess smiled at him
Rane stood up "c'mon Kira… your going with me right?" she smiled
"yup, I'm going with yah" he stood up and put his clothes on
"let's go" the priestess went back to hawk
When hawk saw them
"Rane!!" hawk ran towards her nad embraced her tightly…
"hawk?!" rane was shocked of what hawk was doing . Hawk broke the embrace when he saw an assassin
"who's he?"
"he's kira… he' coming with us from now on!" the priestess said cheerfully
hawk couldn't resist besides he seems to be strong
