Next part of my fic! Yay for having reviews so fast! I was going to have something a little romantic in this chapter, but I guess it didn't unfold that way. Either way, I like how it came out. :D

Reve and Richter had arrived on earth. They were greeted by Kai and Sarisa. "Hey, how's my little buddy doing?" Kai teased.

"Welcome back, Richter. Oh, hello, Reve." Sarisa said.

Reve said nothing, and Richter took over the conversation. "Enough of this, I'm starved. Where's the food?"

Kai grinned and lead them to the cafeteria. "You're just in time."

Richter grabbed Reve by the arm and dragged him through the line. After sitting down, Reve poked at his food. It was chicken, with a side of potato. There was also a desert. "What is this stuff?" Reve asked.

"It's food! C'mon, have a bite." Richter said as he dug into his own dish.

Taking a bite, Reve spit it out for a second. He was overwhelmed by the taste. Taking another bite, he looked at Richter. "You have this stuff everyday?"

"Yeah, food is food. You act like you've never had any in your life." Richter had amnesia from his landing when he first came to earth, and forgot about what life was like on the moon.

Reve was amazed. "Oh yeah, amnesiac. Well, food on the moon...Has no taste. Mother only gave us the most necesary things to live off. No point making it fancy, I suppose."

Richter was surprised. "I can't imagine..."

Finishing his plate, Reve looked at the pudding. "And this is food too, huh?" As Richter nodded, Reve took a bite. It was chocolate. "This one tastes different." Reve pointed out.

"Yeah, there are tons of different foods out there, Reve. And they all have different tastes." Richter explained.

Reve looked at the empty bowl. "These Humans really have it made. This is interesting. Anything else I should know about?"

Richter finished. Taking Reve to his dorm room, he pointed at the bed. "You can sleep there."

The guild had many hunters, so dorm rooms were needed for those that had no home, such as Richter and Sarisa.

Sitting on it, Reve realized it was really soft. "This is comfortable. Really comfortable. Do all humans have such soft beds?"

"Yeah, they do." Answered Richter. "I think you'll find life on earth a lot different from life on the moon."

Just then, Kai came in. "Richter, you got a sec?" Nodding, Richter left the room with Kai. "Sarisa seems down. I think it's because you're hanging around Reve now, but I'm not too sure about this girl stuff. Maybe you should go talk to her?"

Nodding, Richter went back into the room. "Reve, I gotta go talk to Sarisa for a bit." Reve nodded with his eyes closed, just basking in the comfort of the soft bed.

Entering Sarisa's room, she looked up. "Oh, Richter! What are you doing here?"

"Kai said you were feeling kinda down, so I figured I'd see what's up. You feel like talking?" Richter didn't often see Sarisa in a low mood. It just wasn't like her.

Sarisa smiled. "Oh, Kai is just trying to stir up a little fun. It was Kai who told you, right?"

"Yeah, it was Kai. Said you saw me with Reve and now you're down?" Richter wondered why she would be sad at seeing two guys just hanging out. Or did she really see through Richter completely?

She sighed. "Yeah, I saw you and Reve holding hands."

Richter laughed. "Yeah, he was a bit down, himself. I said I'd show him my family, which is you guys. His only family was Trinity, and now that she is gone, he has no one to go to. Or at least that's the way I see it. He doesn't really let on to it, but I think he really needs someone to show him what more there is to the world than just being a soldier for Mother Trinity."

Sarisa looked a bit happier. "Well, I never really thought of that. That's what I like about you. You're always thinking of others before yourself."

"I better go see what Reve is up to. I left him on my bed. Said he never felt something so soft in his life." Richter smiled and headed back to his room to find Reve still laying there.

Reve looked up. "I trust things went well?"

"Yeah. She's fine. I think she was just a bit jealous." Richter said as he got out his Nintendo DS. At least that is what the object said on it. Nicholas had found it at a ruins site with Ogi. It came with several small disks that could be inserted. "Check this out. It's a small game. Press these buttons to move around, these to preform actions..." Richter demonstrated it, and Reve was fascinated.

Kai brought in a bag of Pizza Goldfish and offered some to the two. "Have a snack, you guys."

Reve look horrified. "Goldfish?!"

Richter laughed a bit. "They aren't real Goldfish, Reve. They are crackers shaped like Goldfish."

Still skeptical, Reve examined the contents of the bag. Taking a bite, he smiled. "These things are pretty good. Now I see what you mean about all the different tastes there are. I want to try them all!" Reve commented.

It was getting late. Kai left, and it was just Reve and Richter. "I'll sleep on the floor for tonight." said Richter. "Seriously, it's not that bad. Besides, my back needs it." Reve nodded and hopped up onto the bed. Richter got an extra blanket and pillow and laid down next to the bed.

"Hey Richter. Why do you think Mother really wanted to destroy the ruins?" Reve asked.

Richter thought for a minute. "Well, she didn't want the humans to know what she really was. Maybe she was afraid they'd rebel against her once again, and possibly destroy her for good." The two fell asleep. Wasn't long before Reve woke up. Hearing the shuffling of Reve getting out of bed, Richter turned to see him staring out the window. "Reve? What's wrong?"

"Why do you plague me so?" Reve questioned to nobody in particular. Turning to see a curious Richter, he sighed. "I have dreams. Not just any dreams, but the same recurring dream night after night. A dream of me serving Mother loyally."

Unable to understand why he would be dreaming of a dead deity, Richter tried to console him. "I wouldn't worry about it too much."

Reve sighed. "But it doesn't make sense. She disowned me. Why is she in my dreams?"

"I hear that your dreams are sometimes influenced by the last thing you thought about before you fell asleep. Think about something different." Richter said as he got up and walked over to Reve.

Sighing, Reve looked at Richter. "But what? What should I think about?"

"You could always think about me?" Richter suggested innocently.

Justt then, Kai walked in. "I heard some chitter chatter as I was going to get a snack. Shouldn't you guys be sleeping?"

"I don't want to dream." Reve stated bitterly.

Richter explained the dreams to Kai, and Kai understood. "Y'know, I have a solution to this. Why don't you go to the Dark Shrine? You can confirm with your own eyes that she's gone, and perhaps you won't dream of her any longer. It's just an idea. It's your call."

"That actually isn't such a bad idea. I'll take you there myself. That is, if you want to." suggested Richter.

Reve smiled a bit. "We could try. I'd do anything to be able to dream freely again." That decided, they went back to sleep.
