Chapter Eight:Aura Acting Strange
Everyone was extremely surprised when Aura came down the stairs with Kratos. Everyone except Lloyd however. No one else had known that she was awake. A few minutes later however, the shock had worn off and evryone had introduced themselves. Everyone seemed to like Aura enough. After a short time, she was laughing and joking with everyone as if she had known them for years. Since she had awakened, Aura had noy looked this happy, and it slightly disturbed Kratos that he dreaded the thought of her ever looking as depressed again.
A short while later, Aura glanced down at her hand, the one with the strange bracelet on it, and sudden;y stood up and said that she was feeling tired and was going to go back to her room to rest. As she walked up the stairs past Kratos, however, he noticed that she looked more anxious that tired.
Kratos slowly and quietly went up after her, careful that she wouldn't notice him. Before going into her room, Aura looked around to make sure that she wasn't being followed, the went in and closed the door behind her. A few seconds later, Kratos followed her. Opening the door silently, he peeked in to see if he could see her, but there was no one in the room. Or so he thought. At the last second, he saw her jump oout of the window.
(We;re on the third floor!) Kratos thought. (No human could survive a fall like that!) Rushing to the window, Kratos saw Aura land in a cat-like way, look around, then run toward the Asgard Ruins. Hesitating for a minute, Kratos pulled out his wings and flew after her.
