Chapter 15: Rescue

Yunago and I leave her little hut in search of nearby game we can bring back home. She decides to teach me a few maneuvers and grapple holds when it comes to deal with bigger animals.As im learning these movements and techniques. I see a big deer like shadow. Yunago also sees it and takes out her bow and arrow. She holds her breath in,takes aim and fires shooting the beast in the side. Doesn't take long before it dies. We cautiously walk to the deer and remove the arrow from it. "Must be your first deer huh? Hehe. When ya live in the woods ya gotta make due with what ya had.

I even built my own cabin. Took a whole year and then some to make sure it was a proper home. But hey I figure this as a hobby." She says while im still overcome by the thought that Fafir has my Gala in his grasp. He could kill her or worst. I get off my knees and dust off my new patched up skirt and close my eyes smelling the air,dirt and nearest stream. Yunago walks towards me and touches my hand. "You want to find her don't you? We'll find the one your searching for and make sure whoever has her will pay. But right now you still are weakened from your assault. Think of this as training." She snickered and swiftly moved while her fluffy tails gently flowed across my face.

"Her name is Gala. She's what's important and I owe it to her. After all if that..bastard hurts her or does anything to her..I'll kill him. He already made me..feel...worthless..I don't want him to make her feel that way. So I'll endure what ever training you can dish up fox. Just please..Help me find my daughter." I say while tearing up. Yunago walks over to me and hugs me tight. I feel her kissing my forehead and rubbing my hair. She's so warm and yet feels so foreign to me. "Is this what you want? Well.You have a lot and I mean a lot of work to do before we even attempt to rescue your daughter you said?

Forgive me for assuming but aren't you a little young to have a daughter your a kid yourself. Hmm nineteen years old by your looks. Yep definitely nineteen." She smiles before she suddenly kicks me. I block and roll backwards in the mud stunned and confused. I remember my request. Apparently Yunago answered it. She does a spinning jump kick and lands it precisely on my temples. I feel slightly delirious and happy even. Once I shake off my daze I dodge her second spinning jump kick and moved under her grappling her left thigh and her right arm. I throw her backwards only for her to slip out my grasp like butter. "Impressive hold Luna. But you have to stop leaving yourself open and pausing in between your moves I'll show you what it'll look like once you manage to attack more efficiently."

She informs me before swiftly appearing underneath me and picks me up on her shoulders. I feel the wind get knocked out of my body as Im literally head first in some dirt and feel an cold draft on my rear. I struggle to get out the dirt mound and flail my legs to get Yunago's attention. "Oooh what a naughty display we have here hehe. Well im going home. When you get out do let me know. I'll be making tea.Unless you can somehow break free. Let's see." She says while sitting on the dirt mound making it harder for me to get out. I get frustrated and imagine im bursting through the dirt. I feel determine and finally break through knocking Yunago to her face. "N..not bad huh? Well..guess were even huh?" I snickered. Yunago does a handstand and gently lowers herself back to the ground.

She smiles and bows. Suddenly she knees me in the gut and prepares an kick I block it successfully and embrace her other attacks that followed. She looked so focused and calm. Well until she tired herself out poor little thing. I noticed this by her hair becoming unkempt and droopy compared to her shiny and beautiful ginger locks I've seen before. She fell to her bottom and rested in the grass and breathed heavily. I walked over and sat beside her. "N..no fair..Your part god.Im only a Parithian hehe. Of course you found out that stamina is my weakness. Geesh your pretty strong. Hehe..well. Guess even I need to work on things." She grinned and rested. I said nothing and looked at the sky. It was a beautiful blue with all the stars and possible planets in the distance. I smiled and reached for the moon. According to Mama as a baby I always did this hence my name and why she nicknamed me Moon Eyes. I giggled as I remembered that and laid beside Yunago. Our hands touched and I didn't care she fell asleep and all seem peaceful.

For several days all Yunago and I have been doing was training ourselves and testing how far we could go. Truth be told I wanted to unlock that Aether form again. I wanted the respect of the gods and goddesses along with every Neotic and Human alike. With that form I even made Fafir coward may it not be externally but I know he's afraid. My thoughts overcome me as I got kicked in the face by Yunago. I fall over and see stars.

She rushes over and holds her hand out laughing at me. I smiled and blush in embarrassment. "Hehe. I must be getting faster or your getting distracted. Is it my new top? I knew it was. But hey it works even thought I'm flat. Imagination is a thing and don't you make any sly remarks missy." She huffs while pointing her little slender finger at me. I never really focused on her..cleavage if she has any, Its mainly been her eyes and her tails. She catches my glance and meets it with one of her own. "S..stop looking at me like that..d..don't you have a husband,girlfriend or boyfriend to think about..I'm not pretty. Im a gross foxgirl is all..mmm...nothing to see here." She shyly says while avoiding my gaze. I also turn away blushing and realize this is sooo awkward. Desperate to change the situation I cough and walk off from the hill we're sitting on to find a bird carrying a rolled up piece of paper. "That's weird. A note. For me? Oh thanks little fella hehe."

I giggle as I graciously take the note. It looks like its Gala's handwriting simply saying one sentence. "Hurry as soon as you can,He's weakened." I roll up the note and put it in my pocket. I walk over to a still blushing Yunago who puts her hands over her face and seems to be internally freaking out. She looks at me and seems very embarrassed by the whole exchange. "Y..yes Luna..what was the note that bird was carrying?" She asks while her voice was shaking. "A note from Gala. Apparently...Fafir has been weaken some how. I got to find her. The question is ho.." Yunago suddenly hugs me and looks up with tears in her eyes. "Absolutely not!! Your gonna get yourself killed you purple plum!!" She yells.

Strange enough this isn't the first time she's called me that. Last week was a purple grape and yesterday a purple onion. I smile and played with her ears only to get bitten by her small yet sharp teeth. "No touchy!! Only...someone I truly care about may touch them..or..if their cute..I'll tolerate it...not like you fit those descriptions anyway hmmph." She says while sticking her nose in the air.

Confused but also charmed. I play along and pat her head.She still hasn't let me go and I stand there slowly getting crushed by this girl's surprisingly monstrous strength. "Oww..oh.ok..I won't go..B..but my Gala..she needs me and these notes are the only way she can communicate. Trust me Yunago..I'll make you a promise. If I don't come back. You can have my clothes as memories of me. Also..If I'm cremated. You get to keep me in a urn. Well separate from my family hehe. But if I do come back. I will do whatever you want me to do. Just ask. And I'll see if it can be done."I say while gearing up ready to face the danger.

Yunago doesn't approve at all and slaps me. "Have you no sense?! You've only been with me for eighteen days,yet you want to tussle with the very god that raped and violated you!? What makes you think you can actually put him down? What makes you think you can beat this monster? What makes you think he won't try raping you again!!? I stopped in my tracks and think on what Yunago is saying. "I know I almost agreed to let you go face him,but im not taking the chance."Yunago says while hugging me tightly." "You don't have to fight him alone..let's rescue Gala together." She said sadly with tears streaming down.

I give her a bow and a war axe she had in a stump for cutting wood. She gently smiled and placed some sort of blue shield around us. "Im a bit of a mage also. Most of my people are masters of any form of magic, healing and restoring is our favorite though. You better kick this guy's ass ok?" She giggles as she punched my arm. I rubbed it to make sure she didn't bruise it.

We traversed from her hut to across Vannuk Lake to Big Nose Rock to the Umpag Mountains in search of a portal to Fafir's realm no luck at all. We rest at a local inn for the night and sleep for what seems like forever. My phone rings waking me and Yunago up. I answer and hear a distorted demonic voice taunting me to retrieve Gala.

I hang up to avoid any more of the demon's hijinks and fall back asleep. By morning Yunago is already up and doing some exercises. "Morning demon speaker hehe..Im guessing that was one of that weirdos minions calling to say "Oh you'll never find her. Or your gonna pay or some shit like that." She says as she's stretching her legs. Unconsciously I look at the shorts she's wearing...they're very short like the kind ya wear for track and field or running or even weightlifting. The way it failed to cover the bits of her exposed panty straps. I giggled keeping this to myself. Yunago turned around and asked what was so funny? "Cute shorts ya got on hehe. Sexy even. Got a pair for me?" I teased. She stood up and bit me on my shoulder and turned away acting huffy while folding her arms.

"Oww! guess I deserved that. Hehe. Can we get dressed or are you hungry. I didn't think I looked like food." I awkwardly said nursing my bite mark and getting a menacing glare from Yunago. "Pervert..hmmph. Take a picture why don't you it'll last longer. You better not take a picture..or..or..Or I'll break your phone with my bare hands. Hmmph!!" She yelled while turning away again. I softly giggled and picked out my clothes for the day. We both get dress,eat and walked down a long dirt road leading to a open portal to Fafir's realm. Almost as if he's expecting us. The hatred in my heart makes my hands feel very warm. I ball my fists up and imagine his head as a trophy over my father's throne. Yunago taps me and snaps me outta of my illusion. We walk in readying our weapons ready to wreak havoc. Strange enough there were no minons or guards.
