Fokiri Village

Kai took out the blade, "Here. Make sure no one sees it," He was glad to have an intelligent companion who can fit inside inns.

Rajei slipped the blade into her boot, which was hidden by her long skirt. She stood and adjusted her shirt. "A bit too small," she muttered. She wasn't used to having anything on the top of her body and had made her shirt a little too small, but she'd live. "Let's go, Kai," she said. "And quickly."  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

"Where should we go?" Kai asked.  

[marixe alcyone]

"Just on a walk for now," Rajei said. "Just around the town. We won't need to leave the area unless someone recognizes me."  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

"Okay," Kai said and opened the door, "Come on Serah. We don't have all day," He smiled friendly.  

[marixe alcyone]

"Of course, darling," Rajei said, smiling back.
The man had since gone to the entrance to the inn, and waited outside for them.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Kai took her hand and led her outside, "It's such a lovely day, why don't we just go for a walk?" He suggested.  

[marixe alcyone]

"I like that idea," Rajei said.
The man saw the two come out of the inn. He recognized the man, but not the woman. He wondered where the little servant had gone. "So, did you leave the servant brat behind?" he asked, catching Rajei's arm.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Kai moved to be in the man's way, "If you must know, she has been given her punishment," He said, "Who are you, to touch my woman so?"  

[marixe alcyone]

The man squeezed Rajei's wrist. "Possessive, aren't we?" he asked. "What a stange scar," he commented, pulling up Rajei's sleeve.
Rajei was petrified with fright. This was the man who gave her the scar.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Kai brought his hand down sharply on the man's wrist, numbing it. Kai then shoved him away from them, "Leave my woman alone if you know what's good for you," He warned.  

[marixe alcyone]

The man smirked. He'd catch up later.
"Kai..." Rajei said as they walked away. "Thank you..." She leaned weakly on him, still scared.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Kai put his arm around her shoulder, "Everything will be alright Serah. The bad man's gone now," He said.  

[marixe alcyone]

Rajei looked like she would cry. "Can I walk by myself for a minute, please?" she asked. She needed to be alone for a few minutes.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

"What if he comes back? We should try and stay together," Kai said.
