Shade walked down the stairs with Lani and hugged Willowâ€™s neck, â€œMrs. Willow, I can never repay you for all you and your husband have done for me! It was been a privalge to stay in such a wonderful home. Lady Lani says that I am needed by the king and in that right I must bit you fairwell but I know I will see you and your huaband againâ€¦â€ he smiled as she kissed his cheek. â€œAlright Shade, you know you always have a place here should you need itâ€¦â€ her eyes were a little misty as Buck walked up and held out his hand, â€œMr. Buck, thank you for your generosity and kindness while I have been here under the care of your beautiful wifeâ€¦ I will come and give you help as soon as I am able...â€ Shade bowed low before the man who simply grabbed him by the shoulders stood him up and hugged him â€œListen here son donâ€™t worry about repaying usâ€¦ just live and be happy and take care of that kitten of yoursâ€¦â€  Shade nodded looking to Hichi sitting on his shoulder curled up comfily in the crook of his neck. â€œI will sir, thank you againâ€¦â€ with that he turned and walked outside meeting Lani. â€œLetâ€™s embark?â€ he asked following her.<br/><br/>Each step he took on the ground sprouted fresh grass and small wild flowers however the moment his foot lifted from the ground the new plants would wither and die back into the ground leaving a small patch of well fertilized soil behind him as he walked. Shade paused as they passed by a large tree, his breath held he spoke without moving his lips only allowing Lani to hear him<span style="font-weight: bold">be still we are being..</span>before he finished something took over him as he turned the place on his back which shed the divine light opened and unfolded into a glorios angel wing which as soon as his hands touched the base where wing met his flesh reverted into a magnificent katana. Shade ducked and the attacker, a lowly thug, flew over him and landed face first on the ground. One move was all it took. Shade stepped past the man on the ground the blade sank deep through the manâ€™s chest through his heart emitting an electric current and stopping the manâ€™s life then and there. No pain. No time. No merci. It was over within seconds of its start. Shade continued to walk as if nothing happened placing the katana back to his flesh which then reverted to the wing and folded away. â€œI didnâ€™t want you frightened.â€ He said with a smile nuzzling Hichiâ€™s sleeping body on his other shoulder which hadnâ€™t moved that entire attack.<br/><br/>Soon they reached the town again and Shade paused looking a tad confused before he looked around and saw the store he was looking for. He stepped in after asking for some coins and came out wearing a beautilfu blue and purple kimono. He stretched and smiled nuzzling Hichi again, her neck now holding a small purple collar and tag with her name on it. â€œLady Lani if you donâ€™t need anything we should head for the docks..â€ he said with a smiled walking to where he remembered the boats being. â€œI have never been on one of theseâ€¦â€ he commented as he looked to the airboats a smile beaming on his features. He looked around and frowned some. Everyone was looking at him whispering. Many girls were giggling and blushing, he looked back â€œUm, My Lady, did I do something or say something?â€ he asked slightly helplessly in this situation. His cheeks bright red his eyes getting a little green as he back up some not sure what to do with all the attention.
