He was the tallest one, with freckles sprinkled across the ridge of his nose. "Are you sure this will work?" One of the figures asked. He hid behind a tree, aware of the state he was in and the risks of charging straight towards the enemies. There, he saw Meiko tied to a tree and three looming figures around her. He jerked his head to the direction of the sound and began to run towards it.
Suddenly, he heard a yell and a series of screams followed after. Kaito groaned in pain as he clutched onto his arm. Within minutes, she drifted off to sleep. She was too tired to consider the dangers her actions could result in. Without thinking, she threw herself onto the bed. In the middle of the room occupied a worn table and to the right stood a bed with messy sheets. Miku pushed open the wooden door and to her surprise, she found a blood trail. She was shaking and immeditaely regretted going after the small creature but what could she do? They were lost anyway. Glancing around nervously, she stepped inside the cottage.
Miku glanced upwards and found a small cottage. Chasing after the bunny, the scenery around her changed from trees to more trees. Miku glanced at the distressed servant then at the bunny and decided she'd go with the bunny. She was about to reach out to the rabbit but instead it hopped away. A grey rabbit came into view and caught Miku's attention. Miku bent down to inspect a small daisy that bobbed along with the fragile wind. Grey clouds slowly engulfed the bright sky and she hugged her arms. She stepped out the carriage and gazed at the blue sky above her. She was exhuasted and she only wanted to go home. There was no other road to take and the servant was baffled as he scanned the map and their surroundings constantly, and Miku sat inside the carriage, her chin rested on the palm of her hand. He could only think of one thing, and it was Meiko. With his last ounce of energy, Kaito pulled on the black cloak and heaved the door open, sprinting further and further away from the cottage. Kaito's eyes drifted to his dark cloak and sword. Meiko was taken away and he couldn't think straight - the pain was too much for him to bear. His arm hasn't stopped from bleeding and his face was becoming paler and paler as time ticked by.
