The young man stayed dumbfounded for a second. F-Freak circus? His eyes melted into gold and its color only brightened when his tears covered them. Shot down? "N-No, it doesn't." he sniffed and held back his cries of fear. His dragon sensed her master's fear and shifted her body to create a wall between him and the other girl. She let out a warning hiss and glared at the girl.

Seika

"I can save you..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Seika looked up at him from the ground, a light yet sincere smile forming on her lips. Her cheeks were a deep scarlet, either from embarrassment or the tears, but the cool evening air cooled them as she looked up.
"I don't care... You were nice to me and even complimented me... I want to cherish that. I want to cherish you." she concluded, breathing a light sigh of relief that she had finally gotten some good words out of her mouth. Her tears had stopped, but her heart was already throbbing. She hadn't had a good friend since before she returned to Earth, and she never thought she would be able to have another one again. She didn't want to let him go that easily.
"Sorry, I've said to much..." she said embarrassingly, turning away from him.

"If you want..."

"Seems I made you sad..." she sighed. "I always do that to anyone I meet. I could try and lift the curse but...I wouldn't guarantee it but if i do.. then I wouldn't be able to..." she couldn't say it if she did then all the pain would come back like that day her uncle..made her kill her parents.  

[Its Smiley]

Dragon slowly rose to his feet and looked at Seika uncertainly. A friend, that's what he heard. To cherish him... He felt his frown twitch into a smile until what the other girl said snapped his head towards her. "Y-You can lift the curse?" he gasped and took a step towards her, his dragon reluctantly allowing him to move.  

[Rimmi X]

"I probably will fail the chance of me lifting the curse is 1/5." she said. " because I don't have enough power...yet."

Seika

"I can save you..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Seika's eyes widened for a moment as he began to smile again, but as he turned to talk to the other girl, she felt a twinge of disappointment and hung her shoulders with a sigh. But as she heard the girl mention lifting the curse, her head perked right back up. 'If the curse is lifted, he'll be happy again...' she thought, standing up to face him, though a realization struck her.
"If the curse is lifted, you'll turn back into a baby..?" she asked hesitantly, almost not wanting to hear the answer. She had almost gained a friend, and the thought of already losing him was...
'You'll forget me..?' she wondered, looking down towards the ground. She couldn't bear to look at him if he had to leave.

"If you want..."

"I don't want to force you to do anything." he murmured and looked down. It was okay, he'd find his own cure someday. Who knows? Maybe he'll actually learn to enjoy being this age?  

[Rimmi X]

Alice looked at dragon.
"Why did you even want to lift the curse anyway?"  

[Its Smiley]

He opened his mouth to answer but found that he had none. Why did he want to be a kid again? "Well I.... It's just not me..." he said with a small shrug and looked down, eyes changing to dirt brown.  

[Rimmi X]

"What do you mean you seem more like a grown up than a baby" she said. " be anything you want."

Seika

"I can save you..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Seika definitely didn't know what it was like to have her childhood taken from her, but her life as an adult had already been snatched away from under her. She was thankful to even be there with them then and there.
But it was true that she couldn't even tell he was just a single year old when she first met him, though she did find all of the crying quite peculiar. But she didn't know what he was talking about when he mentioned "the rest of what he was" earlier.
She was suddenly distracted by a sharp pain in her ankle, though she managed to hold back any cry of pain except a small whimper that escaped her lips. Looking down, she noticed her ankle had swollen and seemed discolored, with a cut down its side. Seika was fairly shocked that she hadn't noticed it earlier. She sat back down on the ground to prevent putting more pressure on it, though the pain already gave her teary eyes.

Alice noticed the girl suddenly sitting.
"Hmm? Whats wrong?" she asked.  

[Its Smiley]

Dragon nodded, finding that she was right. He could act grown up if he tried, so what was stopping him? He wiped away the last of his tears and looked at the girl. "I never introduced myself," he murmured and bowed shyly. "I'm Dragon." he said with a light blush then followed her gaze to Seika, whom looked like she was about to cry. "S-Seika?" he gasped and started running towards her, his dragon trailing behind slowly.

"I can save you..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Seika looked up at Dragon as he came to help her, looking up at him with tear-filled eyes. It was at least good to see that he worried for her, and a light simper appeared on her lips.
"I guess I grew careless when I came to look for you..." she concluded, looking back down at her ankle, remembering her fall back in the woods.
"S-Sorry..." she apologized as she looked back up at him.
