Jayden walked outside to see Mysteria still staring at the sky. "Are you gonna come in yet? We're goin 2 get some rest now."<br/>"Oh, ok..." Then still sitting there, she muttered dreamily, "You know, my father always loved the rain."<br/>"Really?" Jayden said, kneeling down next to her. "Must be hard. You know, with your father gone."<br/>"Yeah. He did so much good for my home of Shykla forest. I just still cant believe that he's gone."<br/>"Oh, but that's where your wrong, lil lass. He's still with you. In your heart." He pointed to his chest as he said the word "heart".<br/>"Yeah," Mysteria agreed. feeling a little better. But, um, can I stay outside for a little bit? I just need to gather some of my thoughts."<br/>"Oh, sure. No problem. Take your time." And then he leaned close to her and whispered, "But don't stay out too late. The assasins roam around at night and, as sure as i know me name's Jayden, you're a huge target for them."<br/>"Ok, I'll keep that in mind. Well, goodnight, Jayden."<br/>"Goodnight," he said, and then Mysteria watched as he went back inside. She sat there relaxing for a while, lost in her thoughts when, suddenly, she heard movement behind her. She whipped around, ready for a challenge, when she saw her little brother Bruno, standing behind her. He yawned and walked toward her, sitting down.<br/>"What are you still doing up?" She asked him, nudging him playfully."<br/>"I was ready to ask you the same thing," He said.<br/>"Just gathering my thoughts."<br/>"Yeah, me too," He muttered solemnly. "I couldn't sleep. Thinking about dad."<br/>"Yeah, same here." Then she wrapped her arm around her little brother, and they just sat there, staring at the sky together and talking. Finally, tiredness was beginning to grip her as her eyes began to droop. Realizing this, she popped her eyes back open.<br/>"Hey, Bruno-" However, she stopped her sentence abruptly, for, lying his head on her shoulder was her little brother, sleeping. She smiled and, without making a sound, she picked him up in her arms, and carried him to the door.<br/>Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks as she heard shuffling in the bushes about 50 yards away to her right. She looked over and, sure enough, there was an assasin prowling in the bushes. Luckily he didn't notice her there. She quickly tip-toed into the house, still carrying her little brother in her arms, so as to not be caught in the eyeshot of the assasin. As she laid her brother down on their bed and then got in next to him (there was only three beds, so Bruno and Mysteria had to share a bed), she thought about how thankful she was that she didn't get seen by the assasin.
