In'eres'in' stuffs ye has 'ere, mate!

Ryou had been marching through the forest with Luna on his shoulder for a while. He took her off his shoulder in one swift move and laid her gently on the ground. Then, he placed Raçor next to the girl. Ryou put the female's body on top of his sword and lifted the massive blade. He had slight difficulty, but not too much. He was now carrying Luna on a makeshift one-man-held stretcher. He was holding Raçor with the pointy side pointing away from himself.

As Ryou was concentrating on holding the blade perfectly level, he hadn't noticed that he had walked into a city. It was only when a guard yelled at him to stop for the fortieth time did he realize. After many reassurances from Ryou that he wouldn't use his sword, they eventually allowed him to keep it. But, they gave him cotton wrappings to make it so that he wouldn't cut anyone nor anything accidentally. They took a moment to wrap Raçor up. Ryou also had to say that Luna, the girl he'd been carrying on his sword, was his sister. Finally, they reluctantly let him take her.

After twenty-five minutes of searching, Ryou found a nice, yet cheap inn. He chose a small room with only one bed, because he himself wasn't all that tired, he just needed that room for the girl. And, that was all of the money he had. Ryou paid the inn-keeper for the room. He took Luna to the room and laid her on the bed. Then, he went silently back to the lobby.

"Hey, Mr. Innkeeper, sir. Can I get some ginger rum?" XD Asked Ryou. "Some bread too, please."

He placed some of his left-over cash on the counter.

"Sure." Said the innkeeper. He turned around, grabbed a mug and turned back. "Here you go, sir."

Ryou took it. He began to sip from it, wondering when that girl would wake up.

A thick red mist started to appear in Luna's room right on the side of the bed. It was swirling rapidly and a face started to show. Soon enouph Lacoreious just dropped to the floor from the red mist. He got up quickly, looking shocked and surprised. "That was the nastiest teleportation spell ever." He streched his back and there was a lound crack.

He rubbed his eyes and and looked around the room. "Where the heck am I..." He started to say but then he saw Luna on the bed sleeping. He looked astonished to see her. "...Luna...is that you?" he asked but there was no answer. He walked closer to the bed. His arm reached to tap her shoulder.

Is it really her? It has to be.

"Luna...is that you?" he asked again waiting for her to wake up.

Luna woke up and rubbed her eyes only to see another young man. “Who are you? And Where am i now?” Luna says her eyes had no shine they were emotionless. She just looked at Him it was like she knew him like in a dream. “Lacoreious...Where am i and where Ryou the guy who found me” Luna says she Only Remembered through a dream who this man was and in the dream they travelled alot and had something of feelings for him. Blood dropped from her nose. “Maybe my Dream can hurt me but i saw you in them i thought Dream were not real” Luna says she didn’t do anything about her but did lean up and looked at her Burnt clothes. “what happened to me?” She questions Lacoreious Softly her tone ws different though like her eyes emotionless.

L raised an eyebrow "Who am I?"

Something must have happened to her memory, she looks lost. But she still somewhat remembers my name. So some of her memory is still there...

"I dont know what happened to you Luna, but those burnt clothes...could this man you said Ryou have hurt you in any way?" L asked looking serious. He saw the blood drop from her nose, without a word he quickly grabbed a napkin from the table next to the bed. He wiped her nose. "Your bleeding." He was sitting on the bed.

"Luna can you remember what happened to you exactly? And this man Ryou where is he?" L asked seriously. He wanted answers and fast. Seeing his dear friend hurt and lost like this, angered him. His eyes were starting to turn gold at the very thought of Luna being hurt badly. But it was Luna's silver aura that somewhat calmed him down. Her aura was silver in color, it matched with the moon.

Ryou sighed as he finished his rum. Then he yawned. He hadn't slept for at least five days now. His unsleep limit was 6 days. Meaning, today was his last night that he could spend awake. He slowly trudged on to his room, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He was slowed down more by about a million shoving and hurrying gypsies*. He would have found a way past them if it were not for his bleary eyes.

Ryou stood to the side an waited for the tide to rest. It eventually did, and when that happened, Ryou made his way to the room. He put his ear to the door to check if Luna was sleeping. Ryou's eye's shot open as he heard voices inside the room. One was Luna's. The other? Unknown. Then he heard the second voice ask of his whereabouts. Ryou wouldn't be able to use Raçor here, could he use the silver cross? They'd have to take the fight outside anyways. It would be impossible to fight inside anyways.

Ryou sighed again. Then, he shoved open the door. Then, he leaned against the door frame as he saw that the girl was in no immediate danger. It seemed that they knew each other somehow. He still kept his grip on Raçor.

"Why hello there, you seem to be looking for me?"

Luna looked at Ryou and put her left arm around L’s. “He’s my friend, he is in my dreams” Luna says Emotionless. “Ryou thank you for finding me and i think you can go and don’t have to think about me being safe, L will protect me i just know it” Luna says she stood up and bows as she grabs her Katana and puts it on her back and Looks at L before leaving. She wanted her memories back. Luna stopped a waited for L to catch her up. She would join him again. She started to remember her training with L. Blood drips from her nose as she holds her head and falls to her knees, the memories hurt but she didn’t care til she had them back.

L looked quickly to the door as it opened. He saw a man with huge sword standing there. His stance wasnt threatening but, he had his hand on his sword. Thats all L needed to react. He reached in his coat and pulled out Dk his revolver and pointed it Ryou. "I dont recomend you, challenging me." His voice was strern and dark.

But then Luna grabbed L's left arm. That caused him to relax, and realy think about the situation.

He probalby just found her and brought her here...and must have heard me asking for him. I would be cautious too. And Luna seems to trust him. His aura seems fine aswell. Dark Brown in color, very unique holds alot of potential and is a mild mannered being, calm and honest. He doesnt seem dangerous...only because he knows deep down I am no enemy of his.

L put his revolver away. "...I just wanted to know who she was with. No harm done, no need to be cautious."
Luna fell to her knees, and started bleeding again. L quickly got another napkin and came to her. "Luna relax perhaps rest...is what you need. Maybe you should sleep more. You dont seem to be healthy at the moment. I swear I will figure out what exactly happened to you Luna."

"Oho? What's this? Ye mocking me?!" Ryou exclaimed. "Then why'd ye pull out yer weapon?!"

Then, as Luna grabbed on to 'L's' arm, 'L' lowered his weapon. Luna then said Ryou didn't need to worry about her anymore. L was there now. Ryou slackened his grip on his sword. He would have removed his hand from the sword if it were not for the fact that it would fall to the ground and break the floor. L promised Luna that he would find out everything that happened to Luna.

"Well, if it is any help, I found her in the forest." He said. "But, before, Luna, you said that you didn't remember anything except your name. why suddenly do you remember this lad's name?"

Luna look up at Ryou “when i pass out is enter a dream world but it showed my time with L before i lose my memory in a battle with some one but i could not see their body nor the face then i wake up to see L in front of me” Luna says as she gets up and sits on the bed. “ and the bleeding and the falling to the knees are the power of my memories rebooting in to my brain” Luna looks at L. “I remember all our travels and talks and...” Luna stopped then continued “all before that fight” Luna says.

"Before a fight?" L said. "You was in a fight, and it seemed to be a big one. Looking your clothes. They are...burnt. So this person you was fighting, must have had some type of power that can burn. Fire, lightning causes burning...what else."

L was desperatly searching for clues on what happened to Luna. "And when I find whoever did this to you...they will pay dearly."

L stood up and started heading for the door. "We should go. Only if your sure about being able to move around Luna. You shouldnt rush yourself." L said looking at her. His aura cracking inbetween his fingers, he was angry. "Actually you know what, you need knew clothing...that should be the first thing we do."

It seemed strange to Ryou that Luna had dreams with this L guy in them. It seemed that they used to have a strong relationship. Then, she explained why her nose was bleeding and why she had fell. She also told L that she remembered everything about them. Ryou was beginning to feel out of place here.

Ryou listened to L piece together the puzzle. He was using good logic, too. As L made his way for the door, Ryou stepped backwards and out of the doorway. Ryou also heard L suggest that Luna needed new clothes. That was for sure.

"Hmm... well, she doesn't remember anything, so is it safe to say she had her head hit in that fight? Well, it could also be a witch who messed around with her mind and the strain from trying to resist those powers messed up her brain."

Luna looked at her clothes and agreed “L your Buying” Luna says cheekily. Her eyes shone like they did before and she was no-longer emotionless now she remembered something at least. She also remembered her feelings for L again too and she did want to lose him again. “L will you always sty by my side?” she says wanting to know what his answer was. Her Silver Aura waves like a fire for a bit only L could see this and Luna was oblivious of this of course.

Luna entered a Store and looked at some clothes and goes and changes and comes out wearing the same clothes she had on but mended. "no not again..." Luna says feeling blood flow from her nose this one was more intense as she did not get back up. (Past Dream Battle the Witch is Revealed)

"Yes Luna im buying of course." L said with a smile. Lacoreious only acted this way with Luna, he wouldnt waist a dime on anybody else. But Luna was different, she was close to him. She was probalby the only person he actaually was nice too, and liked being nice. He cares for Madam Wayne, but thats out of fear.

They went out the room. L looked at Ryou. "Thanks again I believe your name was Ryou correct." L nodded to him, as a sign of respect. "Perhaps we will cross paths again, and I will be able to see what you can do with that massive sword." L said grinning and leaving. He was quite serious.

He followed Luna outside, He heard her ask “L will you always stay by my side?” Her aura was blazing like a fire.

Such a remarkable aura silver in color it goes well with her. Matches the moon, Luna is her name. She is passionate, smart and beautifal. But yet her aura is powerful and balanced...just like the moon. But she is still young and has much to learn. Much more room to grow and become something special. Thats her silver aura...Heh her aura causes mine to spark out.
L looked at her aura and gazed it, then looked at his hand. His golden aura was leaking out and wrapping around hers. L smirked and folded his arms.
"Of course Luna, always." was all he said.
He watched her go off into the store. He waited outside and she came out witht the same outfit just fixed. He smiled "Of course should have known," He was going to step in to pay for the wardrobe. But then Luna was about to collaspe again. Quickly he caught her before she hit the floor. Her nose was running pretty bad.

"Damn it not again!" L said in anger. This time his eyes were completely golden. He put her in his arms and carried her in to the store. "Make room Damnit!" The store keeper looked at him and panicked. L's eyes were scary to look at. But then saw Luna unconcious in his arms, and did what he was told.

L placed her on the counter and stood over her waiting for her to wake up. His eyes still a blazing golden color. Even his long hair was generating golden sparks of power.

Ryou ignored what was happening in the room. It gave him a funny feeling, seeing those two together like that. What was it? Pain? Hurt? Longing? Loneliness? Well, whatever it was, he didn't like it. He just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. But, as he started to move, Luna walked out. After her was L. He challenged them to a fight the next time they met.

"And your name is L, no? An' I swear, nex' time I see ya' yer meat," Ryou smiled maliciously back at L. "Dead meat. R'memba that, boy."

But, as they left the inn, something hit Ryou. He didn't know where he was or how to get out. He cursed. Ryou tightened his grip on Raçor and quickly closed and locked the room door and rushed to the inn's lobby to return the keys. The innkeeper offered Ryou a partial refund for their short stay, but he refused because he didn't want to lose L and Luna. The dumbfounded man took the keys and gaped at the rather tall swordsman in front of him.

After a minute or two of searching, Ryou saw Luna and L in each other's arms. He supposed for a second that he shouldn't go towards them and ruin their 'moment' together. Ryou just stood back and waited. Waited for them to seperate.

"Gawd, they must really be in love... Doin' that $h!zz out 'ere in public... Ser'ously, they make me-" Well, I suppose we'll never find out what they make him feel like. That was because he had noticed something. "Oh. Ehm. Gee. Is that blood?! I gotta get o'er there fast"

Ryou sprinted towards the pair. But, as he got to the spot where Luna was bleeding, there indeed was blood on the ground. But nothing whose name began with 'L'. He looked up, in front of him. There was a store. He decided to go inside and see if L had taken her there. He walked in. Ryou waved to the sparking L. Then, he glanced at Luna. Her nose was all red, comparable to Rudolph's.

"Did that happen again?"

Toron wasn't exactly the easiest place to enter, but, it was the only place nearby that Langford could get medical attention. IF he could gain access inside. The town after all was guarded by Witch Hunters and it wasn't exactly the easiest place to gain access too for someone who's wanted. First off, he needed a distraction that would take the guards away from their posts and allow Arkrius to gain entrance. A gunshot came into mind, but then figured a little flashier gunplay would suffice even more. But then he figured explosions would be the best way. He pointed his gun into the air and fired it into the sky before quickly sprinting out of the area. There were multiple and many loud explosions that were heard near Toron, definitely worthy enough for a distraction. As Arkrius expected, witch hunters left their posts to see what was going on and he simply moseyed on in.

"It worked..." Arkrius said underneath his breath as he walked towards the nearest doctor. However, the town layout had changed the last time he was here. He didn't know where the nearest doctor was and decided that he needed merely something to stop the bleeding. Bandaging himself was going to be difficult with one arm, but, nothing he hasn't done before. He reached into his pocket for a roll of bandages and simply addressed his wounds in the middle of public. This was a waste of time then. Well, I might as well enjoy my time here.

Luna’s eyes opened and looked at Core’s eyes and stretched her hand to his cheek. “Core Stop please” Luna says softly before getting up and a stands up and shakes abit. “I remember Everything Core and the person who knocked me out after i followed her...Holiday October” Luna sys softly as she grabbed Cores Hand before going to the door. The shop owner looked at Luna “the clothes are Free Young Lady” Luna looked at the owner “Thanks Old man” she says smiling to him before leaving to find Holiday and get her back but she waited for Core and the returned Ryou. “Come on Guys” Luna shouts.

When L heard Luna say "Core stop please." his golden eyes flickered off, as if all anger was lost. "Luna your ok." He said looking at her. "I swear you gonna be the death of me." He said with smirk. But you could tell he was still angry about Luna being hurt so much.

She started to call me by my old nick name, i guess she as right. Her memory is coming back everytime she faints. I just wish she would stop bleeding so much.

"Holiday October...I heard that name around before. She is a witch, im positive about that. But where is she I dont know at all."
L was holding Luna's hand, he felt her silver aura mending with his own. It was a nice feeling, aura's can be so powerful.

They waited for Ryou. "So he's gonna join us? I dont mind. Aslong as he doesnt get in the way." L said grinning.

Ryou stared as Luna suddenly woke. When Luna touched L's cheek, Ryou quickly turned his head the other way. He glanced back at them when he thought that they were done. L had cooled down, but Ryou could see that he was still mad. Luna said that the witch who had hurt her was named Holiday October. Hadn't he heard that somewhere before? Probably not. Ryou didn't normally deal with witches anyways.

If a Witch Hunter asked him to name even the most famous of witches, he would be unable to respond. Unless he allowed his sword to speak. But, his ability level was what Witch Hunters called B Class. He'd only be able to take out other blue classes. Just then, he heard faint explosions. Was someone attacking the great town of... -

"Hey, shopkeeper, where are we?"

"T-Toron"

Ryou turned towards Luna as she called out to him and L. He was about to go when L said something. Ryou grimaced back.

"Tch. Me, ge' in the way? Don' make me laugh." Ryou carefully made his way out the door. "The only time I'd eva do tha' would be if one o' ye did somethin' stupid."

Ryou was tempted to tell them about the explosions, but was worried they would panic. They probably would have heard them anyways. Well, hopefully they would.

There was a familiar face leaving a store and a large grin on Arkrius' face. There's someone I haven't seen in a while. he thought to himself as he stepped closer and closer towards the small group. After brushing by the group, he quickly spun around and held his trusty gun towards L's back. "Where's my money?" he growled. "You still owe me." It wasn't before long till he broke out into laughter and slapped L on the back. "I'm just kidding with ya, didn't expect you here." In a brief second he saw Witch Hunters nearby and simply tilted his hat to hide his face and reached into his pocket for a cigarette. Once they had passed, he tilted his hat back up and lit it.

His eyes traveled over towards the girl and eyed her up and down. "Who's the girl? Definite cutie." He stated before looking at L. "Girlfriend?" He asked before taking a drag. The other guy he didn't take note of as he didn't find him interesting at all and returned his attention back at the girl and then back at L.

When L had a gun pointed at him from behind, he quickly spun around and pointed his own gun at Arkrius. "What money you talking bout?" He said back gruffly. Then he broke out lauphing aswell, along with Arkrius. He was slapped on the back by Arkrius, which only made him lauph more. He started to stop when he saw Arkrius hide his face from near by Witch Hunters. He smirked a little bit.

He's still hiding from them, after all this time.

"Didnt expect to see you here either Arkrius." He made sure not say his name to loud. He didnt want to gather attention. He saw him looking at Luna, and L rolled his eyes. "Still the same old Arkrius, you bastard." L put his gun back in his coat. "She's a close friend of mines, and dont need you to be eyeing her down like that." L said grinning.

L placed his hand on Arkrius shoulder. "Her name is Luna and that is all you, need to know. So what trouble have you gotten into now?" L said looking at him. He knew Arkrius was always in trouble.

Luna looks at the new guy and tilted her head to the right. “Core we need to get going, Holiday could still be in the Area around the Forest” Luna Says and looks at Arkrius not judging him at all but he was stopping them from getting Holiday. She held the strap of her Katana that was on her back. “Core, Ryou i will meet you two in the forest, i won’t be rash again” Luna says softly. She started to walk from the store to the gates. She did not mind Core talking to his old friend but she needed this weight off her chest and remember all her memories and get back at the witch.

Ryou raised an eyebrow at the guy who just came. He seemed to know L. At first, they sounded angry at each other but then started laughing. As Ryou stared down at them from where he was, he saw the Arkrius guy hide his face from people who appeared to be witch hunters. The new guy was around Luna's height. Ryou was just too tall. He saw just about everything as short. Not even his father had been as big as he (was now), and Ryou's father was a very large man. In all three dimensions.

Luna said that they needed to leave as the Holiday person could still be in the forest. He shrugged and followed Luna, who said she wouldn't be rash. Ryou waved at Arkrius.

"Nice meetin' ya." He shoved his hand into a pocket and strolled behind Luna, humming silently.

"Gahaha, still the same bastard and always will be." Arkrius stated before stretching. "Oh come on, there's nothing wrong with taking a little gander is there? I won't take your girl." He stated seconds before he took another drag. "There's obviously something going on between you two, I'm not even knowing what but I surely know you do. After all, your taste in women is quite nice. But, not nicer than mine." He said with a cocky grin before it slowly dissolved into a quiet chuckle accompanied by a smile.

"You know, the usual. Witch Hunters, Women, Alcohol, you know." It was his answer to everything which regarded him and trouble. "All I get to know is her name? Nothing else?" He flicked his cigarette away and shrugged. "Stingy bastard." He mumbled underneath his breath.

The name Holiday piqued his interest, however, he didn't want to be in any revelation of affairs right now. It sounded like a witch or some sort 'cause not many people went towards the forest. He looked over towards L and shrugged. "Witch Hunting?" He asked. "Though you might not want to spend all your time talking to me..."

The guy that just spoke was pretty damn tall, he didn't really take that into account when he first saw him. Arkrius raised an eyebrow towards him and pointed towards him with his thumb as Luna and Ryou started to go towards the gates. "He definitely ain't much of a talker, is he?"

L looked at Ryou as he walked away. "Um from what I know no he isnt much of a talker. But I only just met him, from what I know...he's somewhat trustworthy. And Luna trusts him, so what the hell he cant be all that bad."

L looked back at Arkrius. Yea I remember his green colored aura, smart and very unpredictable. Veiws life by his standards alone, and lets no one else come in his way. Somewhat trustworthy and a very good alley only if he finds you trustworthy aswell. Arrogant and stubborn, Green colored aura people have a knack for staying alive when they shouldn't...

He lauphed at Arkrius comment about only knowing her name. "Yea thats all you get, you need nothing more then a name." He said chuckling, but he didnt get what Arkrius said under his breath. But he knew it was something Arkrius would say.

"Yea were hunting a witch as of now I guess, still dislike those witch hunters though. Rather Kill them then join them. Of course if I can gain something out of it. And I see you have history with Witch Hunters?" L asked raising an eyebrow slightly, looking at Arkrius. "Damnit, I cant leave them to fend off this Holiday person on their own. Plus I rather settle thigns personally with this witch." L said cracking his knuckles. "Would rather come along? But you seem rather injured...well from What I remember your always injured." L said chuckling.

"Yeah, I have a history with them." Arkrius stated. "It's a long story and I don't want to be here standing for hours retelling my history with them." He added on with a shrug. "I'll pass on that, doesn't interest me a the moment. Surely the three of you can handle one witch. I'd rather want to be non-injured when I fight a witch, been near death a little too many times this year, I don't want a repeat of a few years ago." He stated before lightly tapping L's shoulder. "You might want a move on, don't want your lady friend to keep on waiting now, do you?"

A quiet yawn came to him and he spun on his heels and walked away. "You know how to contact me if you need help...but, you know the usual fee." He said, waving with the back of his hand towards L and decided to catch a wink of sleep.
