Author's Note: Ok, so here's the second chapter, the space abronmy PC is a little dodgy so please ignore typos if there are any. And enjoy!
The sun shone through the window of Tao Jun's bedroom. The morning was bright; the Chinese curtains were so thin that none of the light was blocked. The Dao-Shi slowly struggled against this light to open her eyes; during this time that her eyes were not focused and fully adjusted to the light the young woman noticed a tall figure standing in the corner of the room. She saw no facial features, her immediate reaction, due to her paranoia was that her father had not forgotten what had happened. Come to think of it, not even she knew what had happened. She curled up on the bed showing her intimidation towards whoever or whatever was standing there.
The person standing in the corner of her bedroom took a few steps towards her; Jun hid her eyes from what was coming. "It's okay Jun. Everything's over now." The voice sounded so familiar, the person raised Jun's head with a gentle hand. "See. It's only me."
Jun opened her tear filled eyes; she was so happy to see him. "Pyron…" She whispered. She placed a shaky hand on his face. "Is it really you?" She asked.
Pyron smiled to her. "Yes Jun. It's me." He took her hand that she had placed on his face and clasped it in his own holding it tightly showing no signs of letting her go. "Are you alright Miss Jun?" He asked.
Jun nodded, "Yes. I'm fine but what happened?" She asked, increasing her grip on his hand, not wanting to let him go. "All I remember was hearing a wall fall and then I woke up hear."
"I came for you Jun." he said. "You being kept captive was not right, and I.. I missed you Jun."
Jun put her other arm around Pyron's waist. She buried her head in his chest. "Thank you Pyron." She whispered, smiling to herself. This is where she felt she truly belonged.
A knock on her bedroom door disturbed Jun's perfect moment, "Jun." A voice called. It washer brother Ren, she hadn't even thought about Ren since she woke up, the only thing on her mind was her Guardian Ghost. "Father wishes to see you."
Jun pulled away from Pyron in a sudden panic, fear obviously present in her eyes; her grip on his hand increased still. She did her best to hide the fear in her voice. "When?" She asked, her voice wavering thin.
"Now." Replied the voice; it was a quite sound, which told Jun that Ren was nowhere near her door now that he had moved away probably to continue his world domination video game.
She turned back to Pyron whose eyes were full of concern for her. "Will you be alright going alone?" He asked, "Do you want me to go with you?"
Jun moved away from Pyron, she wanted him to go with her but if she did take him it would only anger her father further causing him to punish her. "I appreciate your concern Pyron, I really do." She began to explain with a tone of truth and love in her voice, "but this is something I have to do alone, you understand, don't you?"
"Pyron clenched his fists, eyes fixed on the ground. If he were able, he knew he would be fighting tears right now. "But Miss Jun…"
"I'm going alone Pyron." She interrupted "And nothing you say will change my mind." It hurt her to be so direct with him, but she knew that this was the only way she would be able to get through to him. "It's just that I don't want to lose you again." She blurted out, being locked in a dungeon for days on end sometimes caused her to be very over emotional.
Touched by Jun's kind words Pyron was almost lost for words himself except for a short "Be safe, Jun." That he mumbled as she walked out of the door.
Now alone in her bedroom, Pyron sat on her bed, holding the pillow her head had been resting on to his face. He sighed to himself, lost in his own thoughts about the beautiful Do-She, Tao Jun. I'm glad I died when I did Jun; otherwise I would have never met nor loved you.
