After we had made our terms for this Deal we had went back to the bandit camp, we had decided we would sleep there for the night, we had made a small campfire and I had to go out to get the firewood, I felt like it was just a way to get rid of me temporarily and when I got back she was sitting on a fallen log she had pulled over, she was watching I think she didn't know I could see that she was watching me or she didn't care, I set the pile of firewood next to the log she was sitting on and then walked over to a stump and sat on it, she put some of the wood in the fire and then said "ill take first watch" I shook my head "I don't need to sleep so it'll be fine if I take the watch for the night" she shook her head "no I have things I need to do" I shrugged and continued sitting there, I took out Michals sword and cleaned the blood off of it, and then walked over to Luna and handed it to her "its best you keep this since it was michals and I don't use swords" she looked confused "then what do you use" I pointed at my fists and walked back to the stump I was sitting on and then closed my eyes but I wouldn't be able to sleep since the sins didn't need to sleep, eventually I heard snoring and opened my eyes and saw that Luna had fallen asleep, I then stood up and put some more wood in the fire and then walked back to the stump I had been sitting on, I kept an eye on Luna and on the surroundings, nothing happened other than when I got up and put Michals jacket around luna because she was shivering, the night had passed and morning had started, When luna woke up she was confused as to how Michals jacket had gotten on her then she realized that I had put it on her she had said "Why did you put his coat on me?" I just said "because you were cold and I didn't need it" I then walked over and picked up the coat which she had thrown off herself "I hope you know this was something Michal cared for since it was a show of his strength since the gold fur on the inside is from the Sunsteel bear" she sighed and under her breath said "thank you" I had heard her but said "hmmm could you repeat that I didn't hear you" she then said "I didn't say anything" I shook my head and put out the fire and began to walk back to the road but Luna was still sitting there so I said "what are you just going to sit there we have a city to get to" she nodded and got up and began to speed walk to me, but she let me lead the way probably out of distrust in me, I walked to the road and then began walking the direction I thought to be north and we walked for the entire day and had gotten into a small traders town,I pulled out Michals money pouch and saw he had a decent amount of money so I got and inn room that had two beds, we could've kept walking but night was beginning to fall and I didn't feel like getting jumped by bandits or monsters, we had both gotten a cheap meal from the same inn and then I had whent up to the room and layed in the bed, after a few minutes Luna walked up to the room and then randomly she said "why did you choose the Name Joe Black?" I shrugged "was a past hosts name" she looked over and said "why don't you choose another name since your not destroying everything in sight" I laughed "I wasn't destructive back then I just saught out revenge for my host since his family had been murdered by the Lionheart family because they had bumped into them while walking down a street" she sighed "so you weren't always this murders thing killing everything in sight" I shook my head "no back then I would only kill Lionhearts regardless if they had been there when his family was murdered, but that is also why I had been sealed" she then said "well why then did you kill everything in sight when you had awakened this time" i shrugged "couldn't tell you, but it was probably from a few hundred years of built up anger" she tried asking a few more questions but after she was done asking I said "if we are going to work together I need to know where you come from and your reason for adventuring with Michal since I know everyone has other motives" she sighed and said "I come from a demi human fox clan my dad the old elder of the clan had been killed by Michal because my dad wanted me dead because I had left the clan the reason I had left the clan was to search for my younger sister who had been taken years earlier by a slave trader, I still search for her" I nodded "yea that's about everything you told Michal, but why did you continue to adventure with Michal" she sighed "he says his blood can remove the slave seal, can you confirm this" I shrugged "half the time when I was with Michal it was an internal struggle to fight for dominance over the body" she nodded and then said "do you know if his blood can do special things" I nodded and then said "well its how he casts magic it also allows him to enhance his body" I then layed down "I'm going to see if Im able to sleep" and I closed my eyes and slowly made my breathing to be calm and rythimatic, eventually I got bored and got up but the second I grabbed the coat since I wanted to go out for a walk I felt a blade at my throat, I chuckled "you still don't trust me" she shook her head and pushed the blade closer "why were you getting up" I then grabbed the swords blade and said "I hate being indoors I was going out for a walk" she pulled the blade from my grasp and then sheathed it but kept it at her hip and then she said "I'll be joining you then" I shrugged and walked out the door, into the streets, I walked through the streets with the wind flowing through my hair I walked past many allys until I heard someone scream help, I looked down the ally and saw someone being dragged down the ally and ran down the ally, the person who was dragging the person looked confused but dropped the person, I began to run on the wall and my fist slammed into the fat mans face I then followed up with hitting his nose with the palm of my hand where I had begun to condense magic and then I funneled it to create a beam that whent through the mans face it whent through his brain, Luna had caught up by this point and she helped the person who had be being dragged when we took the hood off of her head she was Kaida, she didn't recognize me but she did know who Luna was then Kaida said "so is Michal with you" Luna shook her head "well where is he" I then pointed at myself "so we currently have the issue that Michal doesn't remember anything so I have took over and am currently trying to fix his memories" Kaida look confused "huh" she looked at me closer and said "I get it now you must be Joe Black the sin of wrath, but how did he lose his memories" I shrugged and then said "so was that man trying to kidnap you or something" she nodded "he wanted a new slave" I wiped the sweat off of my forehead since I had feared that it was a misunderstanding on my part, I then let Luna tell Kaida the current event while we walked back to the inn, I let Kaida have my bed while I sat at the desk.
