Chapter 5 :
The two Elf's

Silver woke up in a wagon and he saw Sylphi, she was sleeping aside from Silver and crying...

"Why is she crying?" asked Silver himself in thought

He stood slowly up, to don't wake Sylphi. As he looked outside he saw that is already night was. He saw Leina which was sleeping under a tree and he noticed that someone was sitting next to a fire.

"You wake. That's good. I thought you were dead." talked the red haired adult women to Silver.

"Who are you...?" Silver asked that woman who sat in front of the fire. Silver only saw her half-naked back and her long red hair.

"I'm Claudette Vance you Silver, right?"

"Y-Yeah... how do you know me?"

"My sister told me your name. And why you standing there. You can sit next to me. I don't bite you."

Silver slowly walked to her to take a seat in front of Claudette. As he sat down in front of her he could saw her full. She got long red hair and green eye's. And she was wearing a silver crest on her head on her neck she wore a small black shirt wich followed her left arm into a light arm protection on her right arm was just a leather bracelet. The black shirt stopped over her breast which were exposed and just covered from two small iron plates like a bra. Silver slowly blushed as he continued look at Claudette further. Her upper body was covered with a front open skirt where he saw her black panties. On her legs she was wearing a pair of long brown boots.

Suddenly Claudette noticed that Silver was watching her.

"Are you checking me out? Do you like what you see?" she begun to lough

Silver was scared. He felt somehow guilty. As would he be a pervert or something. He quick looked aside to cover his blushing face.

"Whats wrong ? I'm not mad with you if you watch me or my body, just do it. Then you are handsome too, you know. So don't be shy, Silver."

Silver didn't know how he should answer. It's like the situation in the INN where Leina was kneeling right in front of him. Only Claudette sat in front of him in a normal pose. But still Silver was never good at talking to girl's. He never saw such a beautiful young adult. Besides from Sylphi and Leina.

"S-Sorry..." Silver stood up and took a walk.

"Where are you going?"

"I need a walk, sorry Claudette."

"It's okay, but take this with you."

Claudette throws a black cloak to Silver.

"A cloak?" Than Silver noticed that he was just wearing his black pant's

"Yes. That you don't get a cold. It would be a shame if you would die." she smiled faint.

"Thanks, Claudette. See you later."

As Silver walked deeper in the forest, to a small spring where he saw the moon shining, but he didn't notice that he was watched from two female elf's. Meanwhile Sylphi woke up and saw Silver was gone, she rushed panicked out of the wagon and saw Claudette to, she sat in front of a campfire.

"Claudette..."

Back to the spring, a little elf girl was watching Silver and she ask her little animal friend what they should do.

"Who is that human over there? Should we attack him Ruu?"

"Chiep! Chiep!" spoke a little ape

But before she was able to attack, the little elf girl was stopped by another female elf.

"Nowa, stop that. Have you forgotten what I've taught you?" whispered the other female elf

"Alleyne! No I didn't forget it I just..."

"First watch what is the intruder doing, than attack if you think he is evil. But first let's watch this human and decide than."

Both of them begun to watch Silver, who still stood in front of the spring and he watched in the spring and saw his reflection in the water.

"Is that me...?" he looked at his reflection "Damn, Ingo where did you just end up. First you overslept and I'm almost to late for school and now I am awake in this strange world."

As he was talking to himself he didn't notice that Alleyne and Nowa were watching him. Ingo looked depressed in his reflection from the spring and suddenly he grab his head.

"Who..." He heard another voice inside his head

"What the..." Ingo fall backwards on the ground.

"Who are you!" said a voice which sounded inside his head.

He tought as he fall backwards he saw someone in a tree

"Quick! Nowa hide!"

Both elf girl's hide themself

"Did he saw us captain?

"I don't know Nowa."

"What was wrong with that white-haired boy why he was talking to himself and why he fall on his back?"

"I don't know Nowa. Let's look."

Alleyne was somehow interest in this human, because she was never so close on a human. But Nowa just wanted to kick that Human boy out of the forest, then he reminds her how she was treated from human because she was a half elf. And Silver begun to scream something

"WHO IS THERE! SHOW YOURSELF!" Silver begun to scream into the night

"I'm sorry Silver... I didn't mean to scare you..." It was Sylphi which was hiding behind a another tree and was watching Silver to.

"Sylphi? You didn't scared me at all!"

Sylphi walked to Silver to help him up. Both elf girl's watched that scene.

"Another human? This time it's a girl." whispered Alleyne to herself.

"Whoa...! She is beautiful..." Nowa got somehow jealous as she saw Sylphi.

Her hair got a purple color and she had amber-colored eye's.

"Did you followed me Sylphi."

"I was worried, you disappeared."

"Sorry. Let me guess Claudette told you where you can find me, right?"

"Yes, did she. By the way Silver why are you on a place like this?"

Silver got silent for a second. And notice finally that someone was watching him but he ignore the two elf girl's.

"I just need a walk nothing more."

"Oh... I see..." Something was bothering Sylphi about Silver's answer.

"Something wrong Sylphi?"

"Uh... yeah could you tell me who you really are?"

"What is that for a question I'm Silver. And I'm from Japan."

"That's not exactly what I mean Silver... First your injuries from that battle disappeared and nothing was left, no scar, nothing. Within that fight a strange power was shining from you. And now you doing as nothing happened. Tell me who are you really?."

Sylphi trembled in fear as of a special reason as she Silver asked that, Silver got all of the sudden silent.

"Captain what is going on there?" Nowa was trying to see more because she was now interest in that boy, just like Alleyne and suddenly.

"Sylphi... to tell you the truth... My full name is..." before Silver could end his sentence a young elf girl fall down from a tree
"What the..."

"Who are you?" Sylphi looked surprised to the elf girl as both of them heard someone calling a name.

"NOWA... Are you okay?" And a second elf jumped down from the tree.

Silver watched both elf close. The one on the ground was wearing a white X-shaped bra with an orange hood on the back. On her arms there was orange colored arm protection which covered both half arm's. On her legs in the same color long boot's and on her hip an orange white colored skirt with two belt's. On her butt which exposed no panty's, was landing a small ape.

The other elf who jumped from the tree. Got long blond hair with a braid on the right. On her head was a red Barrett. Her breast was covered from a green colored aimless-top. On her hip was she wearing a short with skirt and a green holder on top. The skirt only protected the watcher from seeing her panty's and her butt, her legs could be seen exactly. On top of the green field from the skirt she was wearing a brown belt. On her legs long green boot's and on her arm's long green glove's. And over all the stuff she wore a red cloak, which was flying in the air as she jumped from the tree.

"Hey Nowa wake up! Damn she is unconscious... What should I do now... If I fight them alone, then Nowa is unprotected..." Alleyne was mumble to her self before she faced Silver and Sylphi which slowly went closer.

"Who are you both! And why are you watching us?" Sylphi asked curios.

"Stay where you are Human's don't make me to attack you..."

"Lower your weapon Alleyne, both of them are my friend's." spoke a familiar voice

Suddenly a another voice was to heard. And Leina came out of the forest in the opening.

"LEINA!" Sylphi begun to cry in happiness.

"Leina...?" The Elf girl who Leina called Alleyne looked stunned behind her to Leina.

Later on as everyone calmed down Leina explained that the two human's were friend's of her. And all five went back to the camp. Silver was carry the elf girl called Nowa on his back. By a strictly look from Alleyne and from Sylphi who was still struggling against her question who Silver really was.

"I see, both of them you friend's Leina." asked Alleyne calm

"Yes." Leina countered

"Oh! One thing more Human?"

"Are you speaking with me Alleyne?" Silver asked curios

"Yes, don't try anything funny with Nowa. If you try something strange on her I will kill you."

"Geez..."

"Listen, I don't know what your problem is with human's but I have no interest of doing something funny to your friend or to you."

With this lecture Alleyne got silent and blushed in surprise. Meanwhile Nowa woke up, she was scared of that human which see saw carry her, but she didn't move.

Nowa felt a gentle warmth from that boy who got called Silver. It was like the same warmth which she felt by Alleyne's hug's when Nowa was sad or felt lonely.

It was different from the other human's she met, there was no hatred only a gently warmth coming from Silver trough her body what let her fall asleep again with a blushing face.

As they got back in the camp Silver put her with Sylphi's and Alleyne's advice under a tree in the near of the campfire. Meanwhile Leina was talking to Claudette with no fighting. Later all of them went back to bed with two new guest's, but there was one person who still couldn't sleep and one person more who was watching him...

"You can't sleep, Silver?"

"Sylphi...? Yeah, I'm little confused..."

Both of them stood middle in the night and watched each other. Sylphi wanted still to know who Silver was but she couldn't bring her self to ask him.

"..."

"That reminds me on something. You wanted to know who I am, right Sylphi." Silver looked back to Sylphi with a gentle smile on his face.

"..." Sylphi still continued to be silent as she looked into Silver's face.

"You see... My true name is Ingo."

"Ingo...?" Sylphi begun to ask nervously

"Ingo Vieth and that name Silver is a nick name who I got called from my teacher back in europe."

"Ingo 'Silver' Vieth? That's your true full name? But why are you are confused?" Sylphi asked somewhat relieved

"You see I'm not from this world... One day ago I woke up in my bed in my world and was late for school, so I run fast to school but as I came to my favorite spot I stopped. A bridge which I hated and loved in the same time. I watched the view as I got hit by something big and hard. I fall into darkness and woke up in this bed, in the INN which was in Karakure where I met you both..."

Ingo's expression become dark and Sylphi was speechless. Suddenly it start's to rain and both begun to run under a tree to take cover. Ingo was looking into the rain and Sylphi was looking at Ingo's face.

"I hate rain..." Ingo started to talk with a sad voice.

"Why...?"

"The rain remind's me always on that one day... Where one of my both sister's died in an accident..."

"..." Syplhi was shocked by what she heard from Ingo.

"We three was already late on the way home from school and the sun was already going under as it begun to rain. We all begun to run faster as the rain set in... As we got to the bridge I slipped somehow and fall to the ground, Kai my other sister was already on the other side..." he made a stop but continued "As I stood up I did not realize that a car came roaring up to me, but Syl... my other little sister noticed it and pushed me to the side. Before we realized she got hit by the car and died... We tried everything said the doctor, but... she was already dead as we got to the hospital with our Mother. Afterwards our Mother compensated her grief with work. And Kai who lost not only her sister but her twin sister she became very close to me, and I gave myself the blame for it and swore to my soul that I never let something like this happen again."

He looked down and clenched his hands into fists in anger on himself. Sylphi was sitting, kneeling against a tree and holding her head against her knee.

"It's not your fault... She saved you... It's like what me happened..."

"Huh?"

"You see in this land there is a war between the Swamp Witch and the kingdom and with the kingdom's from out there, everyone want to become the ruler of this world. Where I came from... Was a village, which two year's ago got attacked by the creature of the Swamp Witch and the soldier's of the Queen. We tried to flee my parent's and my elder brother but... My Parent's stay back to save us and then my older brother went back out of worry for them and he was killed right before my eyes. But somehow I survived..."

Suddenly Sylphi begun to cry. And Ingo took her in his arm's to comfort her.

"Why..." Sylphi cried more and blushed

"I don't know who your brother was Sylphi but if you want I will protect you from now on... Somehow like a big brother his little sister"

"Please do..." Sylphi stopped crying and begun smile

The rain stopped as Sylphi smiled again and her question about Silver, I mean Ingo were clarified. And Sylphi got a new brother which she really liked. But there was someone who has seen the whole scene and was kind of sad because this person wrongly interpreted the entire hug scene.

"This time I won't let you die Sylphi, even you are in this world a another person..." thought Ingo to himself
