Chapter 3: Botan appears, but not Magis!

After an hour they are found by another Spirit Knight who was on his to see what the explosion was. The Spirit Knight brings them to the castle nursery, after they come to they report in and return home, Save going to Botan's rather than home.

"Save!" shouted the blue-haired girl as she tackles Save.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!!" screamed Save as he fell down.

Botan smiles as she drags Save into her house.

"Ow…" wincing as Botan applies ointment for rug burn.

Is rubbing the ointment around him. "Sorry… I don't know what got over me…"

Sighs and winces. "Ow… It's okay… I was tired to begin with…"

Botan smiles lopsidedly and pats his head. Save smiles and says, "Do you know what a Chaos Knight is?"

Blinking, "No…"

Gets a serious look and says, "According to a man named Dalton… A Chaos Knight is a rogue Spirit Knight…"

Nodding, "I see…"

Deciding to get off that topic, sighing, "tomorrow, I'm gonna get my own mission… probably babysitting the prince again…"

Smiling, "Okay."

Smiles back at her, "I wonder what happened to the Chaos Knight…"

"I wouldn't know… Oh, I'm done!" Botan says shrugging.

"Really? Thanks!"

Giggles, "You're welcome!"

Smiles and puts his shirt back on once the ointment dries, "Next time don't drag me into your house…"

Botan smiles nervously. Save smiles back at her and laughs, and Botan blushes. Save gives her a quick kiss as Botan's mother opens the front door, and Botan makes a small squeak. Save smiles and says hi to Botan's mom; poking Botan's sides and asks her, "What are we gonna do? Practice magic again?"

Giggles as her mom smiles at the two, "Hey! I don't see what's wrong with it?"

"Okay," says Save as he follows Botan outside. "So what are we gonna practice? Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, Lightning, Plant, Metal, or Light?"

"Uhm... Light."

Nodding, "Okay... Offensive or Defensive?"

Ponders, "Offensive, I've almost mastered defensive!"

"Okay. So we'll start on Spirit Arrow... or Spirit Lance?"

"Arrow."

"Okay. Spirit Arrow it is." Botan smiles.

"Let's see... Okay... Take a stance like your holding a bow…" Does so himself. (Has in just one hand…)

Botan does the same.

"Place your other hand parallel to your wrist," taking that stance. Botan nods and follows that out as well, somewhat clumsy like though. Save fixes her stance, "Sorry.. Now focus your energy and form it into a bow shape." Botan does so, kinda. Save sees a small bow of energy appear at her hand, "Okay, see the string of energy?"

"What about it?" looking at it.

"Are your finger's of your free hand touching it?"

"Eh?"

"The hand not holding the bow, sorry for my confusing wording…"

"Ummm… Yeah," looking at it.

"Okay. Now don't grab the string... it'll break and you'll lose the bow... pull your hand back and the string will come with forming a arrow."

"Okey dokey…" does so but accidentally breaks the string, "... T T"

"At least you didn't grab it... everyone at the Academy did... the Instructor was so anger at us, we all ended up writing lines…"

"... Really?"

"Yeah... "I will not grab the string!" 500 times... with the exclamation mark." Botan's looks surprised at him.

"Yeah…"

"... Oooooooooookay."

Save smiles, "I'll show you the spell…" Takes the stance and pulls the string back forming the arrow, as Botan watches. Shoots the arrow after pulling his hand back to his chest, "pull the string straight back, don't let you hand drop or raise as well." Botan nods, making a funny face watching the arrow fly to a target in her backyard.

"You almost hit my mother!" screamed Botan.

Save looks and sees Botan's mother very pissed at him, "Sorry!" Goes to help her up, "I'm so sorry… I didn't see you there…" Botan turns her head to hide her giggling. Save walks back to Botan, "Okay let's try this together." Botan nods and follows his movements.

"Try not to hit my mother," whispers Botan as Save and her are doing the stance, Save helping her by Doing it for as with her.

"Okay, we'll focus our energy together to form the bow," Save whispers back as they form the bow, "Okay, lets pull the string back." The two pull the string back, and Save's finger tips end up touching Botan's chest. Botan jumps breaking the bow and slaps Save. "Sorry!" Save apologizing as Botan blushes. "Okay, let's try this again…" Save says after few seconds and Botan nods.

The two try it again, but Save's finger tips still touch her chest."Umm…" starts Botan.

"This apparently is gonna happen no matter what…" Save says before she can continue.

"No, my mom…" responds Botan.

"Oh…" Letting go of her. "Sorry…"

"It's okay."

"You're blushing…"

"So!?" Turning redder.

"Okay... let's leave at her for today... I think we won't be able to concentrate."

"Yeah…"

The two head inside and sit at dinning room table to wait for Botan's mom to cook. Save pokes Botan under the table and Botan squeaks as her mom looks at her. "What are you two doing?" Botan's mother asked.

"Nothing," Save replied.

"Well… alright," responded Botan's mother.

The two ate dinner and went for a walk. After about 3 hours they decide to go home, when they reach Botan's house they say good night, Save kissing Botan and Botan blushes. Botan walks inside her house and Save goes over to his house, only to be trampled by his sisters and being saved by his little brother. Save looks over towards the east and sighs, "I wonder what happened to that Chaos Knight…" about 30 minutes later Save went to bed.
