Zero

Zero looked down at Mavisa as they walked and slowed his pace down so she could keep up. "You are very adorable you know that Lady Mavis?" He chuckled and looked forward. "Don't know why you were all alone like that though."

Zero nodded and stood up straight. "Alright Lady Mavis." He smiled and resumed walking ahead. He looked at the sky slightly and watched the snowfall, it blended in with his white hair and shirt. "I'm not a big fan of snow, but I can't hate something so pretty and amazing..."

Zero looked down at her and smiled. He kneeled down and gently patted her head. "No need to be embarrassed Lady Mavis and the nearest town isn't too far from here. Just stay close and will be there in no time, alright?"

Zero chuckled hearing and watching Mavis. He looked forward and thought about what she had said. "Well we can probably go after a few small monsters, but I recommend we head to one of the towns. That way you won't be in immediate danger."

"Live." Zero stated and let go of her shoulder. He grabbed her hand and placed the bear in it. "There are others who need saving more than Ryu, he's capable of taking care of himself. He won't mind you not trying to repay him..." He closed her hand around the bear and turned around. "You should be glad you have a life at all, you have friends and people who care about you and don't say you don't because I know you do... Cherish your time with them, life can be cruel an they could be gone the next second..."

Zero looked at the bear and picked it up. He looked at the small object and sighed. "Why do people take their lives for granted so much... You're weighing the value of your life upon the opinion and actions of another, another who doesn't see value in his own life." He grabbed Cicila's shoulder and made her look at him. "Do not waste time trying to save those who do not wish to be saved... Search for another and if they leave you, another. Never cease to hope, even if all seems lost.... Trust me..."

Zero sighed and placed his hand on Cicila's shoulder. "Please don't cry Cicila... Would you like to talk about it?" He moved the bear closer to her and smiled slightly. "It may help..."

Zero had watched the entire scene unfold from not far away and sighed. 'Poor Cicila, Ryu really did it this time...' He picked up the small bear and followed Cicila to the diner. "Um miss Cicila I believe this is yours." He showed her the bear and placed it on the table. "Are you alright? Seemed like Ryu made you very upset..."

Zero gently held Mavis' hand and began to walk away hearing the girl. "I'm sure that you'll be able to come back to this place one day." He looked down at the girl and smiled kindly. "Now where would you like to go?"

"It's not my fault I pushed you away! It's hard to open to others and try to trust someone agai-" Siren broke when she heard him threaten her brother and began to cry tackling Zauis onto the ground. "No don't hurt him! Please don't hurt him, I beg you! He likes being your friend and doesn't have anyone but me!" She hid her face and continued to cry. "It's all my fault, I'm the reason he's hurt and I use it as an excuse to push others away... Please Zauis," She looked at him with begging reddened eyes. "I won't be cruel to you or tease you or anything... Just please go back to being Zuzu..." Sh

Siren quietly watched Zauis walk away and clenched her hands into fists. "Why are you being so cold all of the sudden... First you want to stay as friends and now you treat me like nothing..." Her eyes began to water as she sniffled and tried to hold back her tears. "What did I do to you... You liked me and I liked you, you wanted to be friends and I was okay with it..." She ran to him and turned him around on the verge of tears. "So why are you being so cold!?"

Zero looked down at Mavis and smiled nodding. "Alright then. Stay close and tell me if you see anything suspicious." He patted the girls head and offered her his hand. "Do you want to walk by my side or ride on my back?"

'That guy...' Siren lowered her fist and sighed walking after Zauis. "Zauis wait up, I'm sorry for snapping at you like that. You should know how I feel about being looked down on." She placed her hand in his shoulder and looked at him. "Also what did I do to make you angry? Please tell me, I don't want our friendship to end. Besides didn't you invite me to your wedding and honestly I want to be friends with Oske, she seems like a nice girl."

Siren's eye began to twitch when she heard Zauis and clenched her right hand into a fist. "Scaredy cat? Do you really think I'm that weak Zauis?" She gave him a murderous glare and grinned raising her fist in front of his face. "Don't get so cocky and arrogant just because you have a high level. You're lucky you're cute or I would smash your face in for your comment." She was very angry.

"Never mind that little brother." Siren flicked Zero's forehead and stood up carrying him. "Thanks for watching our fight Aoife, hope to see you in the future." She smiled and turned around with a giggle. "Now we better start planning the wedding ceremony and everything , right little brother?" She teased the boy as they began to disappear in the snow.

Zero closed his eyes and sighed. "Sorry I was cowardly enough to hit you from behind as well sister..." He pushed Siren away slightly and looked at Aoife. "Don't worry we'll be on our way, it was good to um see you again." He smiled nervously.

Zero looked at Mavis surprised and smiled. "Don't mention it Lady Mavis." He gently patted her head and carefully stood up, making sure she wouldn't' fall. "Just let me know when you want to go and we'll be on our way." He ruffled his hair and looked at the sky watching the snow fall. "I swear to protect you no matter what."

Siren looked down at Zero and sighed. She walked up to him and kneeled down hugging him. "You're an idiot you know that? You think too little of yourself and close up too easily, try to be a bit more open. Sometimes letting others in helps one become stronger, just like how fear tells you what your weakness is." She looked at Aoife and smiled. "Thank you for supporting me Aoife, hope this isn't too awkward for you." She giggled and moved Zero's head into her neck letting him rest.

Siren flicked Zauis' forehead and sighed. "Boys and their need for being the alpha, I'll never understand how come some of you find it necessary." She straightened her coat and brushed her hair neatly. "But alright, I'll watch you try and get yourself killed before your wedding. I'm sure Oske won't mind you getting pawned and sent back to the beginning of the game."

Zero sat up and smiled as he gently patted Mavis' head. "Don't be afraid Lady Mavis, if you like I'll accompany you and protect you from any monsters or bad people. I might not be that strong, but I'm sure I would be capable of keeping you safe."

Zero fell to his knees and dropped his sword. He looked at Siren and sighed . "Guess even here I'm a weakling, huh big sister? Even here I need you to watch over me..." He picked up his sword sheathing it and closed his eyes as the snow continued to fall. "But it's alright I guess, not like I hate you or anything..." He blushed slightly and opened his eyes looking at Siren again.

Siren ignored Zero and turned around. She crouched and dashed into Zero holding her sword in front of her. "You lose little brother..." She thrusted her sword through his stomach and pulled out stepping back as snow began to fall a bit heavily. "You can't beat me Zero accept it I win." Siren watched as a notice appeared stating she had own and sighed. 7/10 HP

"Well I'm not too interested in places that are like this. I need to become stronger." He raised his hand into the air and held it in a fist. "Ever thought of traveling out of Starglade Lady Mavis?" He looked at her and smiled.

Zero looked up as a snowflake fell on his cheek and smiled. "Yeah it looks like it." He looked at Mavis and laid back. "This is nice, just looking at the sky and watching the clouds pass by." He took in a deep breath and sighed smiling.

Zero looked at Mavis and chuckled grabbing the potion. "Thank you miss Mavis." He drank the potion and smiled. "You're quite the lady Mavis, mind if I call you Lady Mavis?" He moved closer to her and put his sword aside.
