【 All Too Familiar 】

The hooded person stands in front of us, they suddenly jump on Emma.

"You're awake! How do you feel?!" By the voice, it's a girl.

Her voice sounds a little familiar.

I can't pinpoint where I know it from though.

She then looks in my direction.

"Oh my! You were in terrible shape! Are you okay too?" she asks.

Emma and I nod, she looks back at Emma, "You can't exert yourself, you might faint again." she then looks back at me.

"I don't really know what caused you to be in such horrible shape, but I assume it's from all the running?" she asks. I shake my head.

"No it wasn't that, but thank you."

"Uhm, where is everyone?"

"The kids? Oh, they're over in the other room," she says, turning around.

"Come now, I just prepared food." she says, we follow her.

My eyes trail around the cave, my eyes then trail back to the girl.

Those robes...

I look down to her feet.

Demon feet.

Ray asks who the hooded figure was that saved us was.

"Oh, you mean Sonju?" she says. "Yeah, he's here too."

Sonju.

That name...

I've heard that name before.

Argh! Gods!

I can't pinpoint anything!

"So it's not Mr. Minerva?" Emma asks.

"Minerva? Who's he?" the woman asks.

"You don't know William Minerva?"

"No, sorry." she answers as we keep walking.

I see Ray is deep in thought.

"Hey-" Ray says, he briefly looks down and his eyes go wide for a second. I assume he saw her feet.

He takes my arm and yanks me back next to him, holding my wrist as he looks up.

"Thank you, for saving us and all..." he starts. "Because if you didn't, we'd be dead. So I do thank you from the bottom of my heart..."

"But there's just one question I want to ask."

I gulp.

"Why did you save us?" he pauses.

Gods, I just realized how many dramatic pauses he takes when he's talking.
