'Dangerous?'

I didn't get to ask about it because the old lady fell asleep. But I didn't listen to her advice and starred back to the forest. It's so clear that I can even see the faces of the animals though it's dark.

As I was starring at the forest something sparks and an arrow arrived beside me. People screamed as they saw the arrow that almost hit me, though it scratch my cheeks a little.

"KYAAAAAAAH-!!" the people in the carriage panic and screamed and it really hurts my ears. I'm the one who got hurt okay?!"

Before I can take a look who was the one that aimed me an arrow he already ran away! Yes HE ran away! That biatch!!!

I angrily get the arrow beside my face and snap it!

I faced the old lady but she is gone?! What?! There is still an old lady but her face is different-!!

"S-she is being targeted! This young lady here is being targeted from The Dark Willow Forest!! Being with her in this carriage will make us in danger! Throw this young lady out of the carriage!!!"

"H-hey what do you mean by thro-!!"

Before I could finished my sentence they already throw me out and the coach man even threw the money I payed him and started the carriage right away! What the-?!

"What the hell is their problem!? Are you kidding me?! You're leaving a kid in the middle of the street who is surrounded with this dangerous forest-- alone?!"

I was shouting by myself, yes I know. I started walking even though I don't know where to go....

" Haaaaaaaaah.... Are they serious? What do they mean by targeted? If I'm being targeted aren't they supposed to help me than to leave me here huuh?!"

I was kicking rocks as I walked. And for some reason as I kicked the rock it's like i hit something, even though there is no one here...I'm alone....

'D-does evil spirit also existed in this world?! G-ghost perhaps!?"

"I-in the name of God, please keep me from harm and guide me in my destination. Bless their souls and let them rest in peace and I'm sorry for being loud and rude in the night. I know it's their time right now I shouldn't have--"

I immediately prayed as I walked, and then suddenly someone grabbed my shoulder which made me kneel and pray even louder!

"Please forgive me God, let this soul rest in peace! Please spirit I'm so sorry and I'll never do it again! I'll promise I'll be good kid, I'll wash dishes, I'll clean the house, I'll return my moms 5 pesos money I stole when I was a kid and-!!"

"What the heck are you saying, sister?"

"H-huh?"

I slowly opened my left eye and look at the spirit in front me. And then I saw the kid who "passed by" in my room last time!!"

"You're not a spirit!"

"Who says I am?"

"You're that guy who tricked me!"

"I didn't know you were my girlfriend?"

"I don't want that to happen also, ya know. And ehm, what are you doing here uh.?"

I properly stand up straight and faced him with confidence and just like nothing happened.

"Call me, Raven. And what are you doing here alone? Have you lost your mind sister?"

"H-how dare you piece of ----say that! You know, stop calling me sister, cause you look older than me, LOOK AT THAT HEIGHT DIFFERENCE!!!

'Him - 5'9 I guess and I'm between 4'3 or 4'6?? My past body is more taller tsk-tsk'

"I may look older but I'm younger than you think I am, sister...." Raven said and started walking so I followed him..

"How old are you then?"

He shrugged and didn't answer my question.

'Tsk, this guy pissed me off."

"So sister, how did you end up here? It's dangerous..."

"Well I was 'targeted ' then the carriage left me here! Aren't that unbelievable, they were supposed to help me, but they left me HAAAH!!!"

He faced me with a confused and shock face....but after a seconds he changed his facial expression into a silly and annoying face--!

"Pfft, Well it's understandable, HAHAHA"

"W-WHAT? ARE YOU LAUGHING?! ARE YOU MAKING FUN OF ME?!"

"HAHAHAHAH, Yeah cause you look pathetic a while ago..'Please spirit I'm so sorry and I'll never do it again! ' pffft-" he said and mocking me! This guy-!!

*inhale

*exhale

"Shuddap please."

(〃^▽^〃)

hit-!

"Oww! Okay sorry...." he immediately apologized and angrily started walking.

"Ne Raven, I need to arrived in the Tissasort City before 9...you know anything I can do? Does teleportation existed here?"

"What kind of question is that? Are you really new here, I heard you have been here for a year now? So why are you so clueless, sister?

"What? Are you asking questions about me? Ohoho, do you like me? Well you know I like older boys--"

"Sister, this forest is famous you know. And you were not scared of the forest but to the spirits and ghost, pffft--"

"Stop okay? What's with this forest then?"

"Dark Willow Forest known for it's darkness inside and can't be seen by its naked eyes. As you see it's all black but they are trees in there."

I didn't react to what he said, I know it's weird but I can see the forest clearly.

"You need a rare magical core so you can see what is in the forest but no one ever find that magical so the people tends to rumor it that it's dangerous. Some people tried to enter the forest but no one came out."

He stopped walking and faced me. I looked at him with an annoying face.

"Wut?"

"Sister, being targeted is dangerous. Some people were also targeted and died and murdered without trace.... So you better stay with me. You can't cast magic in here and only the rare magical core will work in here. Where are you going again, sister?"

I'm being targeted, that means I'll die anytime.... But there is no one here only me and Raven.

'Gods, please keep me safe.'

"O-oh yeah, it's Tissasort City, I need to go or I will be late!! S-so let's go?"

"Don't be scared sister. I'll protect you, because you might haunt me if you die."

"Shut up! I won't die you know-!"

We walked quietly, I just followed Raven to where to go and it's very quiet but my ears can hear the movements of the animals in the forest...

Every step.

When they breathe.

The grass.

The wind.

I can hear heartbeats.

weird.....

.....................................

-Whooosh-

I feel someone passed by so I immediately ran to Raven!

"What? he said with a confused face with disgust?!

"What face is that?"

(。ŏ_ŏ)

"R-raven, I heard something passed by..." I grab Ravens arms and hide in his back

"Huh? Where sister?"

"In the forest..."

" Stop joking sister, it's not funny... Come on let's go or you will be late." he left me and started walking. I immediately followed Raven and walked beside him.

"Raven, I'm serious you know! I can see what's in the forest and you said other people can't. I can even feel their presence, what they are doing and stuff!"

"Sister that is impossible. Calm down."

"It's more impossible that I am here in this world you know...." I whispered

"What?"

"I-i told you I can see it okay? I'm serious, like 100% serious! I can see the deer with blue horns, cats like in the Alice in the Wonderland who just disappear, owl with a horn tf? And a person who is pointing and bow and arrow at us-- huh?"

"Sister, down!"

Raven grabbed my head and shoved it to the ground to avoid the arrow!

'What the-- my forehead !!!

(*>.<*)

"Sister, where's the person?!" he said while holding his sword.

"Ouch my head huhuhu..." I get up and caress my head.

"Sister? Where is it?"

"Huh? uhmmm he's gone."

"Let's go to the forest sister." he said walking towards the forest.

〣( ºΔº )〣

"W-wait whaaaat? No no no no no, it's dangerous and I have to go somewhere remember."

"Sister, I need you."

"Ew."

(。-_-。)

"What? NO, I mean your vision."

"I have to go somewhere, okay? I can't. You said to stop joking and now you believe me? huh?"

"Okay okay I'm sorry. You are going to the auction right?"

"How did you know?? Are you a stalker? ew..."

"What no, I just guessed. Because you said you will go to Tissasort and you said you have to go before 9, sister. There's only one thing that will happen in Tissasort at 9 and it's the auction of the slaves."

"Okay, Detective Conan......"

"What?"

"Naaah nothing, you're right about it, if you know then it's better if we will get going now cause I'll be late."

'I'm actually impressed he knows that, smarty pshh....'

"About the auction, it's been cancelled, sister."

"What? Why?"

"Because apparently the royal guards went there without notice and investigate something because of someone who wants to go to Tissasort at night and said something that makes the royal guards suspicion tingle ."

"Ooohhh..."

'Is it me? hehe...'

"So you can come with me in the forest now, sister. The auction will be held next week same time."

"No no no no I'm going home..."

"But sister--"

Σ(O_O)

(-_-)!

"Shhhh-"

"Sister?"

'What's this strange feelings...'

"Sister?!"

I began feeling unconscious and my head hurts. My body lost its strength, and I went down in my knees as I saw my surroundings begin to spin. After that I lost consciousness......
