The little girl sat leaning against one of the ruined buildings, hidden from view yet able to see far enough to run from danger. She was exhausted, she might be used to never having a full nights sleep but this constant running and fighting and running again was getting to her. She was staying in this place for the moment, it had food and there was no use in going back to the place with the castle. Not now Adel was gone.

She had been so mad when she came back from the feast to find the alien gone, she had thought she had ran off and it wasn't until her picture came up in the sky that she realised she'd been killed. Stupid alien, couldn't even last a couple of hours without her help.

Aliens were on her list of things that she didn't like, as well as mice, ducks and cats. Pruna had a nasty scratch on her side from a run in with a cat that had far too many claws for her liking. It had tasted nice though even if it had taken her far too long to light a fire and she had had to run the moment it was cooked in case anyone came after her.

She probably looked a frightening sight, her face was smeared with dirt and blood, luckily the black clothes she wore hid the worst of it and she was sat making a flower chain, knife in hand in case she was disturbed. No one was going to steal her stuff, or kill her. Since learning that this was a different world and she had been kidnapped she was determined to survive, survive and go back home and convince Elina she really hadn't ran away.

She missed her sister, and hated that she was being kept here and hated that she hurt so much. She had used the medicine she had gotten in the feast to heal her worst cut but there were lots more. She froze thinking she had heard a sound and glanced round warily.

"My father." He smiled, remembering. "We had it drummed into us as kids."

[knifewithnoname]

"Well he did be an idiot." She told him with a pointed look. "It do be a stupid lesson."

[splendid_roman]

"No, it's not." Ian's tone was a bit defensive. "It's a good lesson."

[knifewithnoname]

"It do be a stupid one, why would you no be hitting girls? What if they do be hitting you first."

[splendid_roman]

"There are ways of stopping people from hitting you without you hitting them back." In fact they would probably work better. "Boys don't hit girls because it's not fair to hit someone who's not as strong as you."

[knifewithnoname]

"Well that do be being true." She nodded, still fighting was hard if you just defended and didn't hit your opponent, hard and not as fun.

She stuck her tongue out at him at the next though, "That do be being a lie. Boys do no be stronger."

[splendid_roman]

He grinned. "Sometimes they're not," he admitted. "But I'm stronger than you."

[knifewithnoname]

"Yes but that do be because you do be an adult not because I do be a girl. If I did be as big as you I would be stronger." Said with absolute confidence as she wondered if it were a threat. He had made no move though, so she just watched him carefully for any movements.

"Anyways who do be caring about fairness when you do be fighting."

[splendid_roman]

"Oh, yes, of course." He wasn't going to hit a child, whether boy or girl. "But if we were the same size I still wouldn't hit you." He'd still hesitate if she was bigger than him.

"You're right, if we're fighting for our lives, then it might be a different story," he admitted. "I just hope I'm never in that situation."

[knifewithnoname]

She wrinkled her nose at him, because really this was the most idiotic thing she had heard in a while. "I do be hoping so too, because you will be dying quickly."

[splendid_roman]

"Better than dying slowly." He chuckled at his joke.

[knifewithnoname]

It got a smile out of the girl as well, "That do be being true."
