Third Person's POV

"Hey wake up."

A voice from the darkness called as the female force to open her eyes slowly but not fully conscious enough, she looked over at the voice from earlier to see Ivy, a nine tailed fox with majestic icey blue eyes, soft white fur with blue ancient markings all over his body with white tips on it's nine tail and black color on her paws and ears. A truly beautiful hybrid that she found while being in her homeland.

"Hey wake up." It called again, words were heard even though it didn't open it's mouth to speak. Only the girl with her hood on, can only hear it's voice. "We are here now." now fully conscious enough, she look all over around her surrounds to find herself and her friend inside a ship. A ship that takes her to her current destination, which is Sindria.

"Are you sure this 'Yamraiha' person will help us?." ask her hybrid companion to which the female respond with a nod of the head. The two of them were about to head out of their room, the 16 year old female with an average height of 152 cm., grab her black cloak and wears it to secure her identity from public. Out of all the things she hated from day one is Attention, it annoys her nerves that every single eyes at on her every move.

Once her face was covered by the hood of her black cloak, she puts on her black mask that covers her lips, her hybrid friend then use invisibility to hide his too, same reasons as to not get any attention by town's folks. These two always makes sure to never give any information to people who ask about themself, both are very secretive as none of the two liked talking big about themselves.

When the two assured their identity is safe, they immediately went towards the port. Not familiar about the new environment, the female look around the place, seems like the people are all busy on their own little world or just busy on their work. "Where does Yamraiha lives?." ask her furry companion, expecting for an answer but the female only shake her head indicating of her cluelessness on her friend's home.

"Come on let's go search for it." it said as he floats around while the hooded female follows his lead. While walking, (F/N) notice the stares of some bystanders on the way, maybe it's the fact that she looks suspicious hidding her identity like that but nevertheless it's uncomfortable, being the introverted person she is, she quickly makes her way in a fast pace.

(F/N) never fails to get notice by people without fail however she also never fails to cover herself. With the unending road walking, she just observes the occasional happy citizens of Sindria, like they never seem to be bothered by problems, well it doesn't seem like they have problems though.

'They're so carefree.' is what the female thought.

'If only... I could be too.'

Several hours of searching on the town, still no sign of this Yamraiha person. The two of them were getting tired of finding her and for a fact that they hadn't eaten anything yet since their arrival. Time goes by until the sun has finally set, they were getting restless at the moment, still they drag their feet to this unending search, that is until Ivy finally felt his tiny body collapsing on the ground.

"(F/N)-sama please let's take a rest!" it whine as it doesn't want to suffer walking for another second. The female felt sorry for her companion, she lift him up then despite not his invisibility is still activated, she can see him just from his aura, she place him on her shoulder then proceed to take her step. "(F/N)-sama are you ok? Aren't you tired yet?" the hooded female just shake her head no but deep in her thoughts, her mind is screaming to stop her tracks and find themselves an inn to retire for the night. However that's not happening unless she sees her old Yamraiha.

Ivy on the other hand, has been worrying for his master's current state. He knows (F/N) for a long time, and he knows her habits of taking things seriously and will only rest when it's done.

"Please (F/N)-sama let's stop for the night!." It pleaded. (F/N) stop on her tracks, light were illuminating on the streets however people were already at their homes or closing their stores, only a few men were around drinking alcohol to their heart's content. The night air was getting colder but (F/N) stand her ground as it doesn't affect her, Ivy was now getting worried as each second pass still no respond from the girl.

That is until she finally answered with a nod of her head, did relieve Ivy. "Let's rest now master, I remember seeing a nearby inn just a few steps." it said as it pointed the said location which happened to n near a brothel. 'What a coincidence...' the female couldn't help but cringe at the idea of hearing strange noises through her whole stay since she usually avoided places such as the brothel.

Ivy notice her hesitation, it rub it's furry faces on the female's one then said "Well we don't exactly have a choice." with those words (F/N), with second thoughts, troll towards the said inn. When inside, she went to the counter where she say a busy man counting his income of the day. As what the two could observe the man seem to be greed with money, the man wore rings, gold or silver on each fingers, necklace with pure jewelry, then wears fine clothe of the finest.

'His aura... has been consume... by money'

The man notice the standing female on his counter then smiles as he knows he'll be expecting money again.

'Has the world gone evil?.'

"Yes fine stranger, anything I can do for you?." he ask.

'People... why are you so...'

"Um sir?.

Then she snap out of her thought, she saw the man staring at her, awaiting for any respond. Returning to her cold demeanor, she snatch a small bag of gold then have it to the old man who glean at the pure gold. She raise her hand and raise her pointing finger, indicating for a room of one to be rent. Getting her indications, the man nod his his head then gave the female her room keys.

Grabbing the shiny item, the female proceed towards 143, her room where she and Ivy will stay for the night. The man just stared at the retreating form of the hooded costumer.

"What a weird fella." he said the glance at the bag full of gold then smirk "Oh well at least I have you my sweet munchkin~" he said then kiss the bag then snuggle it on his face.

"Since it's getting late, time to head next door." by next door, he meant the place where men finds sexy and entertaining women, the brothel.

"What was that dearie?~" a scary voice said, the man's skin seem to pale as he saw his wife who has a sword on her hips. "N-nothing!."

"But I just heard you said you want to go to our neighbor?."

"A-actually I was about to pee so I said next door since that's where the bathroom is...."

"But the bathroom is upstairs."

...

...

...

...

"You'll be sleeping at the garage." with that she left, leaving the old geezer on his money, still hugging the money.

"Well I still have you munchkin~" he said the snuggle the bag on his face. "Oh and I'll be taking that!." Then again his wife appeared, snatching the bag then left again, the man just stand there not moving an each until he cried crocodile tears.

°°°°°

"Bed!." Ivy shouted as he jump his little paws at the bed making it creak. The bed was big and luxurious, well it seems they went inside a 1st class inn. There's even a chandelier on top with shinning stones of jewel. "It's been forever since we've sleep on a best, right (F/N)-sama?." it ask however the female was to occupied at the bathroom washing all the invisible dirt that stuck on her delicate skin at the moment so she didn't respond at the question thrown to her, well it's not like Ivy was expecting an answer since (F/N) ususally doesn't like to talk.

*Growl*

"(F/N)-sama... " cried the hybrid fox, as he felt another growl, well they haven't eaten anything yet since they arrive at Sindria. The stores are all close now, and the little fox doesn't know if this inn serves food for travelers.

"Well it's now or never, (F/N)-sama I'll be back I need to do something." it said then immediately float in the air as fast as lighting did it went outside of inn and straight to the sea.

"From what I remember I felt an aura of a sea creature just around... " Then on cue suddenly a giant man eating fish jump outside of the water, everything went slow as Ivy observe the fish, scales as hard as diamonds, fangs as sharp as glass, and even without the light Ivy can tell this one was a stubborn one. "Now that's more like it!." Ivy, without hesitation, close it's eyes, then concentrate on his main element at hand. Dark clouds surrounds the whole area of Sindria, it looks like some kind of thunder storm will about to happen. Energy were forming at the clouds as flashes of lighting were seen then the sound of thunder was heard afterwards.

Waiting for the right timing, Ivy waited patiently as the sea monsters suddenly jumps out of the water again. On cue, Ivy who's getting ready, aim the lighting that struck the sea monsters. The lighting was quite powerful that might actually burn the monster. It landed it's body on the seashore, Ivy floated near the shore. It examine the damage it took him. He sniff it. Perfect.

"This should do."

°°°°°

"(F/N)-sama I brought dinner!." it happily cheer as a big cut of burn fish was on his back, balancing it to not let it drop. When the fox presented it's offering to the hooded warrior, it drop his happiness to see delicious good on the table where the female was silently munching her meal.

"What was it again?." She ask, for the first time in the morning did she spoke towards her companion.

"Nothing!." Ivy respond as he throw the fish out of the window that he once entered, crocodile tears were streaming on his eyes as he went to the corner. The female just started at the fox then take another bite of the meat.

°°°°°

"Ahh~."

Noises.

"Yes baby~."

Moans.

"There~."

Were all the female can hear from the other side. Ivy was fast asleep at the corner, not bothering to eat at all for some reasons. The female knew she will never get some sleep unless she burned the building down to get rid of those noises. One of the reasons why she stays away from places like the brothel, this always happens!. She place the pillow on her ears tyen squeeze it to reduce the sound but nevertheless, she can still hear them.

'What a nightmare!.'

Now she can hear people talking on the other side.

"Oi Sharrkan get your butt out of there or else... "

'That voice!.'

"Or else this happens?." A voice of some man said, it's tone has a hint of smugness, as it seem to be talking to the one who spoke earlier.

WAPACK.

THUB.

"Now you know."

Was all the female can hear as the two voices fainted, maybe the other one drag the man outside of the brothel, well who knows.

'That's definitely her!. Finally I have found you Yamraiha...'
