She looked up and sighed

Rena: "Hopefully"

The morning came to and Ichiro was back on his feet, still woozy but able to get up on his feet. Ichiro went into Renas tent where she was still changing into her gear.

Ichiro: "Hey do you where the hell we are....."

Ichiros face turned red while a tired and naked Rena looked at him completely open to him.

Ichiro: "I'm sorry to disturbing you and all my mistake"

Rena didn't realize it until she looked down and when she did she let out a scream.

Rena: "ICHIIIROOO! YOU DAMN PERVERT!!"

Ichiro: "Hey I didn't mean to see anything or well the lack of anything, not that you don't have anything I'm just saying your muscles hide every that makes you kinda guyish"

Rena: "WHAT!?"

Rena punches him into the air making him crash into his tent. While the morning came up Ichiro was icing his jaw with some ice magic packets. Rena was still peeved from this morning. They travel alone by foot since the cart wouldn't able to fit on the narrow bridges from point to point. Ichiro sighs and all the sea and the sky wouldn't be as wonderful sight from what he saw. He then sees a shimmer of light from ahead.

Ichiro: "Hey turn off the brights."

The man who shined the light into his eyes looked at them and then waved with a smile.

Man: "Yhello my good friends, it is an honor to meet the heroes who were able to create a reputation so far away out here in the middle of the country. But anyway let me introduce myself I am Aragon, a mercenary first class sniper and light mage. I am here to support your journey to find a man who to the report turned a whole town into ash and made away with a fair maiden."

Ichiro got peeved at him talking about his sister like she was a common girl.

Ichiro: "The maiden in question is my sister and I'd like to see her safe"

Aragon sighed and then just shrugged.

Aragon: "Very well. Let us go forward them to Springtide."

They set off for the second and third points, taking in the sights, having a good time on the cool beaches and surfing on the nice brisk waves which was a nice thing to do after a long day of journeying. Then they got to the final point. The beaches were abandoned and the seas were ice cold. Something must have happened to cause this but what? They group looked around but nothing was there even the shop that was stationed here was fully stocked and yet no one was there. Just the cold air and fresh frost on the ground.

Aragon: "Seems like there's no shopping today my friends, maybe the next bridge will be good for the mystery flavor of adventure."

Ichiro: "I can't understand what your saying half the time."

Rena: "Wouldn't be the first time, when I hired him he was speaking in these weird haikus and sentences."

Aragon: "This is how I formulate words my friends."

The team heads towards further up ahead. The cold air gets colder and colder, the frost keeps building up. They get up to the gateway of Springtide and the town was just frozen over, the people turned into ice and the area is nothing but snow and ice.

Ichiro: "Just like Harmonia."

Rena: "The cold air isn't as bad but damn it hurts."

Ichiro looked around and drew his weapon. He cautiously looked at the statues and buildings within the town seeing if anyone was still alive. No luck, so he headed back and just shook his head as he got back.

Aragon: "No luck eh, well all we can do is just get threw the town."

Ichiro: "Yeah..."

They headed for the center of town.
