She knew what it costed before she was even told, and she already had her money out and was ready to pay. As her food arrived in those take out boxes, she handed her money over to Louis. Louis gave her the normal change, and oddly enough, a teacup dragon clutching onto a single gold coin.

Sensing her confusion Louis explained "It's a teacup dragon, loves exploring, also loves this gold coin. A customer gave it to us and now it belongs to you."

Exiting the shop Maria still felt a little confused. "So," Maria looked at the dragon "you like adventures, huh?" and the dragon replied with just the look in its eyes. "Of course you do, who wouldn’t?" Maria said.

Maria then started heading towards her family's home. The nostalgia gripping onto her tighter than before. She arrived, looking at the old dilapidated home. "I just wanted to see the old place.." Maria explained to her new companion.

Tears came to her eyes as the memories flooded through her mind, but her memories quickly interrupted by the tiny dragon letting out an almost whimpering noise. "Oh, sorry..I didn’t.. I didn’t mean to act like that." Maria said, a new softness in her tone.

Leaving town, Maria felt a heaviness in her chest. She didn't want to go, but she didn't really want to stay either. Then, suddenly and all at once, she felt alone in the world as though she didn't fit in anywhere. Putting the teacup dragon in her jackets breast pocket she moved forwards and back to the town of Lilith.

"I can't stay in one place for too long, Keith and his buddies are after me." Maria thoughtfully said, before continuing "But that wont annoy you too much since I was told you love travel. Ii love travel too." and as the sky turned from its blue to a slightly purply-red color, Maria set up a tent and curled up inside with a book.
