Losha was cuddling her puppy so tight, she just might have killed Yorrn. "Thank-you! Thank-you thank-you thank-youuu!" She squealed. I scratched the back of my neck and looked over the the foot of the mountain. You could no longer see the flames of the campfire. "No problem." I sighed. She dragged herself towards town with the puppy and I dropped myself onto the grass.
"I need.. to find out more. Those guys are my only hope right now.. If I could just get them to spill everything." I closed my eyes. The buzzing of mothbees above me was annoying. Oh right, they were the ones that knocked me off of that flying boat. Where was that boat heading? If I had managed to stay on it... Would it have taken me to wherever I came from?
"There's no use worrying about it! Hehehe!" I opened my eyes, startled. I turned around on my front to face a red and brown box with a golden padlock wrapped around it. Who left this here? Has it always been there? "Isn't life just so unfair?" A voice echoed from inside the box. "What?" I asked, confused.
"Life, is short. You can only live one short life. I however, have lived for centuries." The voice bragged. "Are you trapped in there?" I tapped the box. "Hey! Stop that! Shade turned me into a box! And my so called friends are yet to save me!" The box yelled.
"Who's Shade?" I said, rolling my eyes. The box was silent for a few seconds, stuttering. He eventually spoke, all at once unfortunately. "Are you kidding me?! Have you been living under a rock all your life? Shade is the mother of all evil! And she shows no mercy to anyone! She's a evil goddess!" So this world has gods, or Shade was just a weird magician like Tarot.
I turned to leave, as the box kept pestering me and insulting me. I could see why his friends didn't come to save him. I noticed a lack figure from behind a tree, watching me. When he saw me notice him, he turned away and ran. I sprinted after him, and I caught up to him when he stumbled over one of the planks on a bridge conecting to the town. I grabbed him by his jacket and turned him around to face me. "Who are you!-" I let go of him, he was the drunk man I first saw with Cerberus. He had a blue moustache and a long blue ponytail under this gothic-styled hat.
"You're that guy... From the guild! Who lost his memory. Lethe!" He gasped. "And you are?" I crossed my arms angrily and looked down at him with cold eyes. "Chi.." "Chi?" "Chim.." "Chim?" I repeated. "Chimero... I'm Chimero." He revealed.
I felt like groaning, but ended up resting against a bridge post. "I thought you were.. Nevermind. What were you doing spying on me?" "Oh, Cerberus darling asked me to keep an eye on you." He smiled cheerfully. D..Darling? That oaf?
"He needs to stay away fro me." I sighed and shook my head. "From when did you start spying on me?" I asked, suddenly remembering the incident with Lifus and Kubar. Chimero put his finger to his lips. "Um, since you were talking to that dreadful box." "I see." I felt relieved.
Chimero hopped up enthusiastically. "Oh, now I better go report back to my darling Cerberus! You must come with me too, my little Lethe!" He winked a me. This guy was too creepy. His voice was a bit high pitched too. I wanted to place my hands around his neck, and strangle him.
