"Healed...?" Kaori asked.

"There's nothing there." Grega said. "Definitely healed."


Tari pointed to the right, up ahead, where the inn could barely be seen through the bushes and trees.

"...is that a building over there?" Aliana asked, then turned to DeRoy. "Let's go check it out."

"I don't understand how it's possible," Kazuki said. "But it looks like you won't be needing a new bandage after all. How does it feel?"

After checking out the closet, Liilii began searching for Shink in the jars on the dresser, despite them being way too small for him to fit. "Mommy dwowy?" she called out again.

Yerth walked through the hall and back into his room. Kani was still sleeping. "You gonna sleep all day? It's almost time for lunch. Get up already," Yerth said.

Kani sprung awake. "What? Lunch?!" he replied shocked.

"Ha ha, nah it's not quite breakfast time yet," Yerth said. "Didn't think you'd wake up if I said that though."

"Damn it," Kani replied. "I thought I seriously overslept there."

"Don't worry about it," Yerth replied. "Question though. You hear anything strange last night, like someone leaving?"

"No, why you asking?" Kani replied.

"Well, Tari seems to be missing," Yerth replied. "The princess seems worried about her. I was up pretty early, so she must have left during the night or I'd have seen her this morning. You don't always sleep well so i thought you might have heard something."

"Oh," Kani replied. "Don't know anything about it."

"Well, maybe she'll turn up," Yerth replied. "Anyway, I was lying about lunch, but it is gonna be time for breakfast soon, so get your ass out of bed."

'Whatever," Kani replied as he stretched.

"I Reckon it can't hurt," DeRoy replied.

Kaori pulled her tup back on, starting to button it. "I don't feel a thing. It's not even itching any more."

"I'm gonna find out about breakfast." Grega said, walking out of the room.

Terka sat up from the bed, watching Liilii. "What's wrong?"

[Kazuki4356]

"I've never injuries like that heal so fast," Kazuki said as he repacked the first aid kit. "They didn't even leave any scars."

"Whewe ith mommy dwowy?" Liilii asked.

Megumi finished cleaning the table. She took the cloth in the kitchen and rinsed it in the sink. She then walked over to put it on a rack to dry. Megumi then headed to get a broom to sweep the floors.

Vira was cutting fish into sticks, and breading them for frying. She noticed Megumi. "How's your cleaning coming?" she asked.

"Fine," Megumi replied. She started to leave the room with the broom.

"She'll come back, I'm sure of it," Vira said, thinking she might have been a bit harsh before.

"I hope so," Megumi replied. She left to continue with her cleaning.

DeRoy held his hand over his forehead to shield his eyes from the sun as he looked at the inn in the distance as he continued towards it with Tari and Aliana. "That place there hardly seems big enough fer that many people,' he commented.

"You don't seem that surprised about it..." Grega said to Kaori.

"It felt like a dream..." Kaori said, adjusting her top and sleeves. "Really though, everything does now..."

"Grega should know." Terka said, climbing out of bed.

[Kazuki4356]

"I can understand why. You've been through a lot of strange things lately," Kazuki commented.

"OOOh!" Liilii exclaimed. She then ran off out of the room. "Dweda!" she called out.

[KeshmarCurlyHair]

"I guess." Kaori said. "I'm feeling really hungry for some reason though..."

"I'll find out about Breakfast!" Grega said happily, heading into the hallway, then briefly peeked back. "Got a good guess what it's made from though!" She then turned and walked down the hall as she heard her name being called out. She peeked in the other room to see Liilii and Terka.

[Kazuki4356]

"I'm glad you're ok," Kazuki said. "That's some healing you have there though."

"I'm gonna go see if Vira or Megumi need a hand again," Yerth said, leaving the room.

"Ok then," Kani replied. He got out of bed and stretched. He then got down on the floor and began to do pushups. "One... two... three..." he counted off as he did them.

"Whewe ith mommy dwowy?" Liilii asked Grega.

[KeshmarCurlyHair]

"I guess so..." Kaori said. "I feel weird though..."

Grega saw Shink peeking out of the drawer as she walked in the room. "Now now Liilii, Mommy Glowy needs to go back with his family."

"Ugh stop calling me that..." Shink thought as Grega opened the drawer.

"It's okay, Mommy Glowy!" Grega teased. "It's safe to come out!"

[Kazuki4356]

"Weird how?" Kazuki asked.

"Mommy dwowy!" Lillii exclaimed. She then paused and thought for a moment. "Why ith mommy dwowy thewe?" Lilli asked. "Pwayin hide an theek?"
