The Ancient Spirits

"Not pushing me away..." Cyph answered.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana smiled slightly. "I couldn't have pushed you away...."

 

[YellowJedi]

"Why not?" Cyph asked.

 

[nokotchi]

"You actually understand me...." she whispered.

 

[YellowJedi]

Just nodded and not saying anything, Cyph smiled again.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana buried her head into Cyph's shoulder, not knowing what to say next.

 

[YellowJedi]

Cyph held her tightly, as he heard thunder from outside.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana flinched a little at the sound of thunder, holding on tighter to Cyph.

 

[YellowJedi]

"Don't worry, you're safe her." Cyph told Marana. He smiled softly. It was nice and cozy in the tent, he wasn't cold even though he should have been. He just wanted to stay like this forever.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana relaxed a bit when Cyph told her she was safe. She was glad she finally found someone she could trust.

 

[YellowJedi]

Cyph just continued to hold Marana, not wanting to ever let go.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana sighed contently and smiled, she was finally genuinely happy.

 

[YellowJedi]

Eventually Cyph let go. He reached to his bag, and pulled out a blanket. "Sorry, I was getting cold." he said, putting the blanket over Marana and himself.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana nodded, smiling at Cyph.

 

[Meteora]

smoke had ran several miles by the time he reached the temple "so this is the ancient fortress of the spirits..." he used his blade like a key to open the doors, closing them behind him causing the large and complex mechanism to relock the doors

 

[YellowJedi]

Cyph smiled back, pulling her into another hug.

 

[nokotchi]

Marana wrapped her arms around Cyph, just as before.

 

[YellowJedi]

Cyph frowned. "Something's not right. I feel like someone is somewhere they shouldn't be, and it's my fault for not protecting it..."

 

[nokotchi]

Marana pulled back a bit to meet eyes with Cyph. "Do you think it might have something to do with that one guy we keep seeing?"

 

[YellowJedi]

"Yeah, I thInk it does."
