Chapter 14:
Confusion

Somewhere between Gainos and Vosk
Midnight

Everyone fall in a deep sleep and were dreaming about random stuff. But not everyone were sleeping there were four people who could not sleep. First Kaithlyn, she could not hold her eyes shut, she was still thinking about that strange reflection of her and those strange lizard like creature, and why did they kidnapped Nowa and herself. She turned to her left after watching the full moon from the driving train, where she saw her brother sleeping on the other bench.

"*Achooooo!*" He suddenly begun to sneeze

"Again..." Kai begun to mumble as she heard that her brother begun to sneeze again.

She felt bad, she begun to think that it was her fault that her brother got a cold. So she stood up and slowly walked to him and put her hand against his forehead and against hers.

"A light fever... Maybe its better if I go back in that sword. He is better without me..." Kai begun to feel herself more and more bad, thinking it is hers fault, that Ingo got a cold as he was seeking, her.

As she put her hand down of his forehead she caress his right shoulder, where the rest of his artificial arm was.

"If I had never run away, you still had your right arm... even though he was so ugly..." As Kai begun to remember this she felt even more worser, until a small tear drop on the face of her beloved brother

"...D...Don't...cry..." Silver suddenly begun to mumble, as would he know that Kai just now begun to cry...

As she heard this she stopped immediately to cry and looked at her brother. He was still sleeping.

"Don't cry... Everytime, I start to cry you said this even after the lost of your arm. You always smiled at me, Igi." She wiped her tears away and slowly moved closed to his face with a bumping heartbeat

Babummm! Babumm! Babumm!

And just in that moment before she could feels his lips with her own, a hand bumped on her head...

She quick pushed herself back and looked on the edge from the bench above her brother...

The hand which fall on her head was the one of the sleeping Nanael which was lying on the edge from the bench. As Kai that saw she was relieved and begun to smile. Then Nanael was half flying trough the train in her sleep and she was drooling with a red face.

"I need some air..." she said to herself and stood up from the sitting position, in which she sat the whole time as she nearly kissed her brother, and walked out to the other said. As she open the door she realized that Leina and Sylphi wasn't there anymore and she begun to wonder where they are.

But she decided to shrug it off and continued her way out, to get some fresh air of this beautiful calm night.

In the same moment as Kaithlyn leaves the carriage, Alleyne open her eye's after a dream which wasn't pleased at all. And, directly her view fall on the freezing and sneezing Silver.

"You such an idiot, gives your shirt away so that nobody could see at Nowa's nude body." Alleyne thought as she turned to Nowa, which was lying next to her on the other bench, and back to Silver. "But... thank you Ingo." she begun to smile, from his kindness towards Nowa. "You saved her not only one now you saved her a second time too..."

Alleyne slowly sat herself up in upright position against the wall and put her head against her legs.

"What is wrong with me... Why do I feel so strange, when I'm close to him or when I'm watching him. I don't understand this..." Alleyne didn't understand anything right now, because she felt emotion she never felt before and this made her frustrated "Even back in the Elven Forest, I never felt such feelings when I saw man's. Am I... NO Alleyne you have to fight those feelings..." she said in her thought and let her head fall back against the wall and she could see the stars in the night sky...

Than she begun to remember how Ingo put his finger on her lips and said that he likes her. And all of a sudden Alleyne's face turn red and she put her finger against her beautiful lips and closed her even more beautiful eye's.

"My body is burning..." with a gulp she formed her lips to a kiss and begun to dream how a kiss would feel...

"*Achoooo*" But soon she was taken out of her dream by a sneeze from Ingo, and she slowly opened her eye and watched at him.

"Got he a cold?" Alleyne was worried

Alleyne stood up quietly, not to wake up Nowa or anybody else. As she was in front of Ingo she could see that his face was bright red. So she kneeled down in front of him and took off one of her long arm gloves. She put her hand slowly and hesitantly on his forehead, she could feel that his head was pretty hot, nearly burning.

Alleyne was now even more worried so she took off the other glove too and put the other hand again on his forehead and her own...

"He is really burning... Maybe I can give him some secret medicine..." Alleyne spoke to herself and turned her head in every direction.
"I don't see a cup or a bottle... I guess I... have no choice..."

Alleyne slowly begun to gulp several times. But than she took a deep breath and took the leafs in which she carry's the medicine from her bag. As she sat again in front of Ingo she drunk the medicine and stood up until she was standing with her arms over Ingo's bright red face. With every sinking of her head her heart begun to beat faster and faster, she even could hear her own heart.

Babumm! Babumm! Babumm!

Alleyne closed her blue eye's and put her mouth over Ingo's and used her tongue to drag the medicine in his mouth, even though she just wanted to put the medicine in his mouth she could not move back her lips. Instead she was kissing him and could feel that some medicine was flowing out of both mouths over her skin. As Alleyne opened her eye's with a bright red face and wet eye's she realized what she was doing and moved back. But she was somewhat confused right now, that every breath from her was warm and her heart was beating very fast.

"Was this a kiss...?" She asked herself as she was touching her lips and felt a strange urge in her chest and down her body as would something rise inside her.
"That... was... strange... it... felt much better than in my dream..."

But soon as she calmed down and she noticed that Ingo was freezing so she took off her elegant red cloak and put it around Ingo's body. She also took off her red beret and wanted to use it as a pillow for him. So she careful took his head with one arm, but he turned his head and his head was now between her breasts which aroused Alleyne so much that she nearly came...

She put his head after that little incident on her beret and put her head next to him and begun to think...

Until she saw something under the bench, something like a golden bangle for the hair.

"What is this...?"

She took the golden bangle out of the bag and saw an inscription in the inside of the bangle.

"Elvish language?" Alleyne was stunned from the inscription she stood up and walked to bag to her bag and took the same bangle out of the bag. It was the same bangle.

"For my beloved daughter, Alleyne. May you find the special person like I did." Alleyne begun to read the inscription and turned back to him... "Why did he have this bangle? That is the one which my mother gave her best friend..." Alleyne's mind was filled with question and begun to remember where she was very young and her mother took care of a human woman with long silver/white hair...

In the outside Sylphi and Leina begun to blush a laughing about the embarrassment fact, that both actually don't know anything about Ingo as they suddenly heard a song. Which even everyone inside the carriage heard, but as Alleyne turned to the sound, the song was over.

"You have a nice voice." The White Kaithlyn said

"You again. What do you want from me and who the hell are you."

And just like by the first meeting she just begun to giggle

"I told you I'm you. How about I show you something?"

She slowly walked seducing towards Kai and put her arm around her neck and begun to kiss Kaithlyn, which made her blushing like a apple-pie.

As she open her eye's again she was in a place which looked like an other world, but then she heard her voice again

Do you know where you are?

"What is this place!? And who are you!?" Kai begun to cry out in the darkness until she heard someone or something crying
"Huh?" Kai turned around until she could see a graveyard and everything was covered with snow

As Kai walked towards the grave and the sound of a crying child, she saw someone sitting in front of the grave...

"Who is that...?" Kai said as she took a closer look at the child, something said her she know that child but his appearance was not familiar to her

Can't you tell, who that is?

Kaithlyn took another good look on that child and saw a that this child was a little boy, dressed in a colorful jacket and he had spiky reddish-brown hear. No matter how strong she was thinking, she can't remember who that child was. Kai begun to study the child. As she walked closer to it she saw that the child was wearing big glove and was staring on the cross formed grave as snow fall down on his head.

That this child was crying was painful for her, but with every step she took forward to the child so more it seemed that she would never reach him. Just as she thought she reach him, she made a hold. Because she saw the name on the grave and she was shocked.

"It can't be... Who is that child?" she asked herself as she saw the name of her mother in the grave, but could not remember on that child

You really don't know it, Kaithlyn?

She suddenly heard another voice, and as she turned around she saw a beautiful adult woman with long Silver hear.

"M..Mum!?" she begun to stutter as she saw her mother or maybe that what should be resemble her mother

But instead of nodding the unknown woman begun to shake her head and pointed back to the child. As Kaithlyn turned around she saw a other person standing behind the grave, even though the person was covered by a cloak. Kai could see that this person was smiling and had fun at the pain of the child.

But still she wanted to know who was that child, somewhere deep inside she know who that child was but still she begun to ask in the darkness.

"Who are you!?" she cry out at the child which was looking on the strange person behind the grave and then everything turned dark and she could hear screams of pain and agony.

I am a part of your Soul...

"NO!" Kaithlyn open her eyes and was surprised...

"I'm back in the carriage? How? Was all this just a dream?" Kaithlyn begun to ask herself, she know that she was outside and she saw something strange

She turned around and saw that it was morning and that everyone was prepared to leave the train...
