Introductions and Goodbyes

"Ven wakes up"

"Aya notices"

Aya: It's about time you woke up.

Ven: "Yawns" Did you eat my arm yet?

Aya: No! "Clears throat". My name is Aya and the girl over there is Rei.

Ven: My name is Ven.

Aya: Heh? You have a weird name.

Ven: What?

Aya: Never mind that.

"Aya looks at the sky"

Aya: Are you ready?

Ven: I guess. It's not like your going to let me do much.

Aya: Let's get going then.

Rei: Wait what? What's going on?

Aya: I'm turning him in. Remember, he's a prisoner.

Rei: Oh. Well in that case, a town is just up this river.

Aya: Your not coming?

Rei: I have an important business to attend to.

Aya: Oh I understand.

"Rei leaves the camp"

Aya: Guess we gotta get moving too.

Ven: Huh. Okay.

"The two arrives at the town"

Aya: Finally we made it. "Breathing hard" Stupid Rei said it was just up the river...but it took us 3 hours to get here.

Ven: Your so out of shape for a girl who goes on adventures.

Aya: Puff. I'm only tired because the spell that I casted on you has been draining my mana.

Ven: Heh? So you mean that if you have no more mana, the spell will lift itself?

Aya: Yes but don't worry, I have more mana than I need to bring you to the prison.

Ven:😑....

Aya: Ha, speaking of the prison, there it is.

Ven: Huh...I guess I have no choice.

"Ven castes spells"

Ven: 😁 Heh.

Aya: !!!GET BACK HERE!!! 😡

Ven: It's been nice knowing you.

"Ven vanishes"

Aya: I hope he knows that my spell is still on him.

"Ven reappears"

Ven: 😭😭😭I’m sorry😭😭😭. Please take off this spell. It’s hurting my head

Aya: Hehe. Serves you right for trying to run away.

“Ven stares at Aya”

Ven: Before you take me to prison can you do me a favor?

Aya: Hmm?

Ven: “Stomach growls”. Can you by me a meal. I’m hungry and the prison food taste gross.

Aya: Fine. What would you like to eat?

Ven: Hmm, how about buying me two sticks of fried lizards.

Aya’s thoughts: That’s weird. Fried lizards aren’t even good.

Aya: Okay then.

“5 minutes later”

Shop owner: Here you go young lady.

Aya: Thank you.

“Shop owner waves”

Shop owner: Come back anytime.

“Aya gives the fried lizards to Ven”

Aya: Here.

Ven: Thanks.

“Ven slowly eats the lizards”

Ven: You know when I was born I had no one to support me. My mom died while giving birth to me and well my dad was executed for a crime he didn’t even commit.

Aya: And why are you telling me this?

Ven: To convince you to let me go.

Aya: Well it’s not working. I’m still turning you in.

Ven: 😮

Aya: Yep you heard me right. Who knows? A criminal like you might had just lied to me.
