Walking around the halls you could feel a sense of calmness radiating off the walls. My thoughts drifted to the sea, then back to Akane. I couldn’t help but to feel sorry for her. I know I can’t feel but I still have the memory of feeling, or emotions. I couldn’t believe that she thought that Triskix would do something like that, or that she would think I would let something like that happen. The past is called the past for a reason. Ten years ago I didn’t want to think of what I would do to get everyone back, but now after so many things happened.

Sighing to myself I continued on with my internal ranting. I didn’t even like the idea of fighting any more. Namine… I wished she was here now. She always knew the right thing to say to calm everyone down. I wished that I could do that, and then maybe the fight between Triskix and Akane would be better.

Seeing her stuck in that room nagged at my conscience. I knew Triskix and Lexian would not like it but… I wanted to go in there. Yes she attacked us, but she was just confused. She had to understand that Lexian and I wouldn’t let that happen and even Triskix wouldn’t do that. Thinking of those things I could almost see Namine smiling at me, deciding I would do that later I continued on.

Walking down the reminder of the hall way I heard voices. Lexian and Xemmsur it sounded like, hearing their words I thought of something I used to do in the past. Masking my presence, I disappeared into a portal to only to pop out from behind him saying, “Lexy-ian!” Throwing my arms around his neck I popped out from behind his neck, on my tip toes I looked over, smiled and said “Hi!”
