Feather's Point of View

"WHAT THE HECK??!" I screamed. The lady from the dungeon stood there, looking content with Sebastian lying on the floor.

Despite the searing pain bursting through my body, I pulled myself off of the table to help Sebastian.

I rolled him over to his back.

"Sebastian!?! Are you okay?!?" I ask frantically.

"Here. I'll take him to Molly" Ki offered, taking a step towards me.

"No no no! I'm okay!" Sebastian sat up, coughing. He shot a menacing glare at the ginger lady. I watched in shock as Sebastian got up with ease. So much for helping him.

"I guess I'll go to my room also. Have a nice night." Sebastian waved towards us as he exited the room.

........ That was weird.....

Speaking of weird.....

"Who are you?" I blurt out towards the wrench-wielding lady in the middle of the room. She gave me and odd sneer before her face softened.

"Sorry, I never introduced myself. The name's Terra. Nice to meet you, Feather." The ginger lady said.

"Hey--- wait... How do you know my name??" I was a little suspicious. Terra tried to stifle a laugh.

"From that idiot." She titled her head towards Ki. Terra then started strolling around the room.

" Oh Feather! Don't die! Please! Oh wait... Hold on, let me make small talk with the person that saved you." She mocked Ki in a high-pitched voice.

Surprisingly, Ki just stood there, before he hid a large grin.

"Hi! I'm Terra and I try to act so cool by insulting others! Also, I'm antisocial!" Ki mimicked. Terra stomped her foot.

"Am not!" She retorted. The two continued bickering, so I just quietly exited the room.  

Down the hallway, I was hoping no-one  would try to talk to me. Honestly, I want to know why Brandon left the kitchen so abruptly.

I poised my hand to knock on the door. My knuckles tapped lightly on the door, barely audible to even my ears.

"Come in..." Brandon's voice rang out, almost as soft as the knock.

I slowly turned the door handle, peeking my head in the room.

"Heeeeeyyyyy Brandon" I stretched out, walking into the room.

"Hey." He replied simply, his body rolling over in his bed. Usually, he said more than that.

"What's wrong?" I ask, tilting my head to the side.

"N-nothing! I'm fine!" Brandon said, defensively. He looked at me, but when I tried to make eye contact, he adverted his eyes.

"Don't lie to me, Brandon." I sat on the edge of his bed.

His eyes found mine and he smiled.

"... You don't have to worry about me.. I'm........ Not feeling well...."

"Not feeling well?!?" I put my hand on his forehead.

"Hmm.., no fever....." I murmur to myself.

"I should go get Molly----" I got up, but Brandon grabbed my arm.

"N-no! I t-think I just need some rest..." Brandon said. He quickly let go of my arm.

I know he's lying....

It.... Kind of hurts that he's not telling me what's wrong.

"Whatever you say..."

I lied down in my bed and closed my eyes.

But my thoughts were stuck on Brandon.

Ki's point of view

"Hey! Where'd Feather go?" Terra asked. What.? We stopped bickering momentarily and looked around.

I was so caught up in our arguing that I didn't realize Feather left.

"Oh..... She must of left a while ago." I looked over to Feather's bag resting on the floor. I walk over or it and ran the straps in between my fingers.

"I'd better give this to her. Annnd I'll show you to your room. Follow me." It came out as more as an order than offer. I started walking. Amazing enough, she followed.

I knocked on Feather's door. When met with no reply, I let myself in. Both Feather and Brandon were sound asleep, but.... Something was off. There was this unseen tension in the air. I set the bag down by Feather's bed.

I exited the room. Terra was waiting by the door, clutching her stomach. Hmm.. She was okay when I entered the room.

"You alright?" I ask.

She gritted her teeth and nodded.

"Yeah... Just cramps.... That's all..." She replied, her face scrunched up.

"Here." I quickly handed her a health potion. She eyed the potion suspiciously.

"Hey... Wait a minute! If you had a potion this whole time, You could of given it to Feather yourself," Terra pointed out. Obviously.

"I know. But it's a lot cuter for Brandon to give Feather the potion and heal her, Yeah? And.... Well... Feather tends to heal better when she's around Brandon. It's quite adorable." I explain. Terra gives me a sideways look before smiling a bit.

"You're a good guy, Ki."
