Emil's Pov.

I was worried about Light. The Martel knights had taken her away. What if they gave her to Lloyd and he killed her! I sat up from the bed in the Asgard inn. We were just going to go to Hime the next day. It was going to be a long trip. I closed my eyes hoping Light was okay. Tenebrae had told me not to worry about her because I had to protect Marta. I thought back to when we fought the sadist.

Flashback

Alice had just shown up. She caught my eye and gave me a sick smile. I shuddered under it.

"Oh! Your that girl Light's friend aren't you!" she laughed.

"How do you know Light!" I shouted going into Ratatosk mode.

She laughed again. "Now now I wouldn't want to hurt her pretty face now would I?"

I drew my sword and lunged at her. She jumped out of the way.

"Strike Hawk!" a girl with pitch black hair and violet eyes struck Alice's shoulder.

"Aremis!" she hopped onto the monster's back and took off.

Hawk and her other monsters ran off along with her. I turned to Marta.

"Are you okay?" I asked going back to normal.

She nodded. "Yah… Thanks for worrying…," she smiled at me blushing.

I sighed frowning to myself.

End Flashback

I opened my eyes again to stare at the ceiling. I felt like a piece of me was missing. That girl had disappeared after Alice had. That move she had done was a strong strike arte. I thought back that strange girl. She seemed different somehow, but I could not put my finger on it. I fell into a troubled sleep.

The next day Marta, Collette and I set out for Hime. I walked next to Collette.

"Oh hey Emil! I was wondering you kept saying 'Light' in your sleep…did you know girl named Light?" she asked quickly.

I blinked. "Yah but how would you know?"

She laughed. "I knew a girl named Light back in Iselia…she was Lloyd's little sister and very close to everyone…"

My eyes widened. 'Maybe that's why she didn't want to tell me where she lived..because she was related to Lloyd!'

"W-what you said that you knew a girl named Light…what happened to her?" I asked nervously.

She frowned slightly saddened, "She died a long time ago…She was killed in a human ranch…"

I blinked. "T-that's not possible! She was alive the last time I saw her and that was only a week or so ago!"

She stopped walking and turned to me.

"What! She is alive! That's good news! Everyone will be so happy to know she is alive…. We need to find her!" she was energetic now and that was scaring me.
