I gasped, I just had to explore...I can't believe it...a floating city. Just as I was about to open the door, Butch closed it back, rubbing his head with a tower.

"What are you doing? You need to stay here." He said.

"Oh cmon, it's a floating city...you said soldiers can't enter...this dark lord...and I can handle myself now. Plus...IT'S A FLOATING CITY!"

He shushed me and opened the door, looking at both ways, he closes it and whispered,"Listen here, Breezy Hill City does have a magical and royal decree, thanks to my Grandfather, preventing any invaders or soldiers from entering so not to destroy this beautiful city...they're not even allowed to step a foot...but there are loop holes."

"Magical Royal Decree? What do you mean Loop holes?"

"Something that can never be broken...it's something only a royal member of the family can decree...but there are conditions...but the point is...we are hardly safe here either."

"So...what's the point of coming here? And these loop holes?"

"It's safer than anywhere else around here, plus my men are here...anyways he can't take this place over...But if my bro- I mean the Dark Lord could send a group of soldiers on 'break' and send them as civilians...and just snap you up...or worse... a bounty...especially if he has a description of you...a bounty hunter can come here with no problem...plus...there are other ways...I'm serious...stay here." He looked real worried.

"What if I kept a low profile? C'mon...it's a floating city." I begged.

"Damn it, the Griffon...the necklace...No...and don't open the door for anyone, not for housekeeping...not even me without a password, " He came closer and whispered into my ear, "Jupiter's light, that's the password, remember the password, when I come back, we'll change it. Promise, you'll stay, promise."

I sighed, sitting on the bed,"This sucks. I really was starting to feel better. You're such a joy kill...fine, I promise."

He sighed, "Ok fine, how about this? When I come back...me, you, and the guys will go exploring just before we leave for Dalmasca, ok." He sounded so different, like he actually cared.

"Fine." I sighed again.

"Thank you Iron fist, "He just kissed me on the forehead. I was so surprised.

Why was my heart skipping and my face felt hot?

He was about to walk away when I think he just caught what he just did, he turned around looking shocked, "I didn't just...Ok, that didn't just happen. We will never speak of that." He walked out closing the door. I decided to take a shower. I was surprised by how big this bathroom was. Just when I started changing, (into the clothes I had on at the Meteor shower) I heard a knock that made me jump, all this talk about this Dark Lord, spies and shit made me a little jumpy. Fang just looked up but curled back up into a ball.

"Hello?" I answered through the door.

"Housekeeping?"

"Sorry, we're good here."

"Housekeeping?"

"No thank you." I tried to look through the hole but the person was already walking away.

I looked out the window, seeing the clouds going through the building. I laid on the bed, right next to Fang who was purring. I just closed my eyes.

Xaldin's (Butch's) POV

I walked out of the Inn and down the street.

Why the hell did I kiss her like that? It felt...it just felt like I should...but why? Is it because she really is...Sure she feels so familiar, why do I feel like...like I should know her...but why? She is the most infuritating creature alive...but...

I thought a lot about what the old lady said...about her healing my broken heart. I sighed hurrying along...I have to hurry...I just hope she listened to me. This is big...huge...if she is the Star Goddess, then...then I can finally claim my rightful place as ruler of my Kingdom and so can my brothers...and Hecan go to hell for all I care." My fists tightened as I thought about him...and my...my...girl...dying in my arms...My Bella fading...He will pay...She had nothing to do with this, "Then I thought about Iron fist...or Buttercup, "What if she wasn't the Star Goddess? What then?" I don't know why but then thought of her...I arrived at the Pub, the bartender was a Rebel supporter. He handed me a mug, and looked towards the back.

I nodded and walked towards the back, there was a hidden door behind the mounds of barrels, the barrel slid over at my presence, and there were my four most trusted men and a fifth figure sitting in the corner.

"Hey, Bro."

"What are you doing here?"


Buttercup's POV

I thought I heard...slithering...or maybe I was still dreaming...I suddenly felt so chilly and heard this bang that snapped me right and my hand hurts. I thought...I saw...a tail...something was going out the room but my vision was blurry. I rubbed my eyes...I thought I was going to go into shock...the door was wide opened.

"What the hell?" I shivered as that wind blew and what's worse...Fang was gone.

"Fang! Oh shit."
