Ruka’s POV
After Mary left Ruka behind in the forest, the creature that has been lurking on the forest finally shown itself. A humanoid-shaped shadow was showing itself in front of the paralyzed Ruka.
“Wait what’re you doing to my body” I could feel that creature lifting me up from the ground, and carrying my body on his shoulders. The mysterious creature didn’t taking attention to what I said, he just keep carrying me into the forest.
“Where’re are you taking me” my eyes were getting tire, as I inhale some weird fog. These fog was making me feel more sleepy, I must keep awake. Mary will be worried about me if I didn’t waiting for her.
Please put me, Put me down!----

I opened my eyes, I could feel that I was leaning in something. It was a bed, But how?
“Dear, just keep sleeping. Your fever will get worse if you didn’t get enough rest” I could hear some familiar voice, I know this voice. Wait, is she?
“Mom? Is that you Mom?” I could feel an old wounds opening In my heart.
“Yes dear? I will always be at your side don’t worry about anything, I won’t leave you alone again” I could feel her warm when she hugged me in her arm. I was drown into the comfort of her warm. My tear starting to gathers at the tip of my eyes.
“Don’t go mom…..” I closed my eyes and fell into sleep again.
…
….
..
I woke up again, After looking around. I couldn’t see anyone “Where did mom go?”
I rouse my body from the bed and went to the front door, However before I could open the door I heard a loud crash sound
SFX: CRASH!
My hand was trembling, I didn’t have any courage to open the door. But some kind of strange force was forcing me to open the door. The door slowly opened, “No!! I don’t want to see that view again” I closed my eyes. But even though I didn’t want to sees it. The image of what I don’t want to see keep appearing on my head. I could see there was a big truck in front of my house, the truck had crashes at my mom’s car.
“Mom, don’t leave me……..” I fell into my knees, why does this happening again?
People was gathering around my house. An image of the time I spent with her was appearing and disappearing, as if crushing my world.
The world around me starting to collapsed. It was then, I saw some kind of light.

“Don’t worry, I’ll protect you” someone handed his hand to me, I don’t know who he was. But I was saved by him.

I woke up from my bed, wait it wasn’t my bed. It someone else’s be.
“Oh you had already wake up” i still couldn’t see clearly but, I could tell from her voice that she was a woman in her thirty.
“Where am i? wait, what happen to the big creature that was taking me?” I asked her about the creature I saw before.
“Oh you mean Herric? He was one of the spirit that guarding this forest, the spirit of a minotaur. He saved you from there, you know that this forest was full of monster right?” she pointed at some kind of green light, is that him?
“I’m sorry I thought I was gonna be kidnapped by you” I apologized to him
“Don’t worry, Herric had already getting used treated like that” the green light seem to be nodded.
She seem to be a good person. Wait, what about Mary? Does she okay. I was looking around
“My name is Andraste. Are you searching for someone? Are you perhaps know this young boy? Herric found him around the place when he found you" She pointed at a bed behind her” there’s a sleeping boy there, a boy with mess-black hair, Height around 182 centimeter, his body build seem to be like an average boy, and his face was a bit above average for his age.
“Mine is Ruka, Mrs. Andraste I don’t know this boy. I was looking for my Guardian Spirit” I tried to explain what I was searching to Mrs. Andraste.
“Oh you’re one of the heroes. Don’t worry, when their master get into unconscious state Guardian Spirit will be automatically unsummoned. You can call them now” this lady know a lot.
“Mary, I summon you” a flash of light was appearing and starting to materialize into the shape of mini-sized mary.
“Ruka, thanks god you’re safe” Mary immediately flying toward my face.
“I’m sorry about before” why does she apologizing? It was my fault.
“No, it was my fault. I didn’t followed your warning”
“That’s why I told you to be careful” Mary seem to be mad, she turned her body around.
After she turned her body, I could see that her eyes was widened.
“Wait, this boy........... I’ve seen him before.......... Ruka, This boy was Arlon!”
