I awoke violently as if I had woken up from a nightmare “Yunni I'm sorry!” Anre placed his mouth onto Yun´s, blew air into his lungs, and then proceeded to compress his chest he repeated the action until Yun started to cough tar and with a big gasp of air Yun arched his back “Parker… Anre… Karo-” I didn’t waste time I ran and hugged him “Hey what happened? Why are you-” Anre joined in on the hug “Yunni!” “hey okay, okay I like you two, Parker what is-” “Shut up and just stay the way you are!” in the end Yun rested his head on mine and returned the hug we eventually brake the hug and explained to Yun what happened, “I don’t remember any of that, the last thing I remember was that I wanted to protect Karolin and then” he made a disgusted face and started to spite into the ground “Anre was RCPing me!” “Hey! I'm not that bad of a kisser! Plus it was to save your life”
After a few more day of travel we made our way to the Vally of Killarark where a stormy and windy day welcomed us to town, “here I bought you guys something that we will be needing for our stay” Yun dug in his bag and pulled out umbrellas for all of us “thanks Yun but im sure the rain will pass at some point” Parker said, but Yun shook his head “it wont, the Vally has a peculiar atmospheric phenomenon you can expect rain and thunder six out of seven day of the week and when it doesn’t is very rare to see the sun” I remember I read about the topic on my computer before all of this, but witnessing it first hand is different “I think that we should be more worried about how we actually will enter town, we saw a few guards outpost that were already alerted about us, probably thanks to coudfield” while is true that not many people know about us in small town, bigger towns such as Killalark, Marlusha and Novori will be on high alert for us “do not worry guys I have a plan” I told the guys and showed them a make-up kit I got at Pikod, I took a brush and foundation, “when im done we will be unreconganzable”
“… have I seen you before young lady?” I made a thick accent to try to keep the guard off my trial “No, I do no things, mate, me and my friends came here for a vacation from the north” She looked at the rest of the group Yun let his hair down covering one of his eyes with the longer part, I did his make-up in a gothic style trying to make his nose as thin as I could, for parker, I highlighted his chick bones and took his glasses off for Anre I just accentuated his eye bags and give him more wrinkles to make him look much older and lastly for me, I pined my hair up and changed my face the best I could I even made a beauty mark near my upper lip, “oh I know where I know you form you in that horror movie “clank clank you are dead” I like your acting” I laughed instinctively “I know I'm working on some other things but can we go in?” the guard nodded shook my hand and let us go.
“I can't believe that worked,” Parker said, we walked for a moment the architecture was very gothic-inspired buildings that ended in castle-like structures, gargoyles were perched on some rooftops the light was made to resemble old lanterns the roads were paved with cobblestones it was like entering an old history book “what should we do about a place to stay? I don’t think it would be wise to stay at an inn” Anre informed us, he was right we can't use our names without running the risk of having guards and military personnel on our tracks “I… I believe my old house should work as our home while we are here, we would have to walk through the center of town to reach the east section of the valley, if my house is still standing we can use it” It was our best bet plus we lose noting with chacking out Yun´s home “are you sure Yunni? We can camp somewhere if this bothers you” “I mean the memories are going to be all over town I won't be able to escape them even if I try, I rather us have somewhere dry to sleep and plan”
We started our walk to Yun's old home, I wondered what sort of place it will turn out to be, the place where he raised the kids under his care, as we made our way, people started to gather in the middle of the valley, guided by the sound of someone ringing a rather big bell like the ones used to for told the arrival of news “people of Killalark! We are here to bring you dreadful news!” a man in what looked like formal wear talked into a speaker, I managed to see Yun swallowing saliva as the person spook “it have come to my attention that the accursed vulture Yun Mirai is currently on his way to our town” the crowd started to whisper warily “why would he returned now?” “Now? At the moment the black claw has turned her back on us… we are doomed!” the man cleared his throat and continued.
“settle down folks, I understand that this news is concerning to everyone, which is why I called for reinforcement we are expecting the visit of someone even better at fighting than the black clow they will arrive in a matter of hours we can expect them and their team to keep that retched bird caged forever!” people started to cheer at the man speech, “ptss Yun are you okay?” I whispered to get his attention, he turned to me and I saw a line of red trickling down his chin “I'm holding on…” Parker took out a handkerchief from his pocket and cleaned the blood from Yun´s mouth “Come on Yunnie we better go” I heard the sound of glass breaking as the crowd started to chant “Murderer, Murderer, murderer!”
we somehow managed to leave the scene without any incidents, a few people did look at us but did nothing to stop us, “I can't believe they are eating that bull… I mean we don’t know what happened that day right Yun?” Anre asked and placed his hand on his friend´s shoulder “No… but I have the bad feeling we will find out soon… there, that’s my old home” “Wow… it is bigger than I thought” Parker let out “… is that hand on the gate decorative or…” there was what appeared to be a human hand holding a singe on the gate door.
“This house is under the protection of the black claw, trespassers will be treated as moonlight beasts, enter at your own discretion”
