Third person (p.o.v.)

_________Hold on, so let me give you a bit of an explanation as the trusty narrator. humans and fairies were never meant to live in harmony, that much was known all over the realm. So every time the two species cross paths, all the others can think about is, ‘how much money could I get if I sell them?’ the king and queen of the humans and Luna’s parents, as much as they hated each other, signed a treaty stating that slave selling amongst each other is banished, and if said person is caught, the fairies would be give the highest punishment, execution, however, The humans give the punishment of exile from both kingdoms. The slave sales are still going, just in secure locations away from the kingdoms, basically this was their version of the black market. Though most fairies are sold dead, a fairies body never decays, It stays in perfect condition from the moment they die to forever. That’s why slave selling is held as a severe punishment for the fairy kingdom. Though, you can imagine the drop of crime rate for slave selling after that announcement. That’s why the bandits Luna and Kai have crossed paths with are debating on whether they should sell them, or turn them into the fairy kingdom and get that reward instead. Okay, that’s all, glad we cleared that up. ___________

As the bandits charged at the Kai and Luna, Luna flew the both of them up before they could catch them. Luna sat Kai in one of the highest tree branches, “try to move too much on here, I’m not sure how much weight the branch can take. I’ll be back for you after I take care of them,” Luna assured Kai. Kai nodded and then grabbed onto the tree itself to stay just in case. Luna flew back down and took the bandits down that were climbing the tree to try to get to them. Luna landed on the ground gracefully in front of them. “You want to get to him, you’ll have to go through me first,” Luna said holding her sword in front of her with the blade facing down. “So, you want the first move, or should I?” Luna asked, smirking smugly. Kai looked down at the group and Luna, ‘how does she expect to win against a group of fully grown human men?’ Kai thought in his head. The group didn’t answer Luna, they just charged at her, all in one group. Luna swiftly jumped up and walked on the men’s heads moving in a circle around them. One of the men lifted their bow and arrow, but Luna didn’t notice, she was focusing on not falling, and not getting stabbed by their swords.

“Luna! Bow and arrow! Watch out!” Kai Yelled down at her, and pointed at the guy. Luna looked up and noticed the man pointing his bow at him, he turned and aimed at Kai after he heard him call him out. Luna immediately jumped over to him, Luna grabbed the guy and made him aim it at his foot. “You don’t seem so experienced in this, sir,” Luna said in an innocent tone, she made him launch the arrow and it punctured his foot. The guy screamed in agony, as Luna pushed him down like it was down, he laid there holding his foot in writhing pain. The group turned to the two, then shot their arrows at them too, she jumped and dodged, the guy on the other hand, well let’s just say he’s sleeping, forever.

Luna grabbed the deceased man’s bow and then grabbed all the arrows shot at her, she kept them in a pile and then shot one at a time, hitting them with every shot in the head killing them instantly. There was one guy left and she was by now out of arrows, she was backed up on the tree that Kai was in, and didn’t have her sword, she dropped it when she grabbed the bow. The guy was about to swing his sword when kai jumped down and landed on him, uninjured and intact.

He simply stepped off the now knocked out corpse, Luna grabbed her sword and then swiftly cut off his head. “Why’d you kill him? He could’ve lived!” Kai asked, “Kai, you and I are fugitives now, we can’t have people knowing where we are, at least have people know which way we’re headed, we’ll be caught instantly, you wanna get caught?” Luna asked, Kai slowly shook his head no. “that’s what I thought, now give me a second. I'm gonna take one of the bow’s and their arrows,” Luna added. Luna went around and took one of the bows and took one of the holding things that keep the arrows in them. It was big, so she was able to grab a lot of arrows, almost all of them too.

She also went and grabbed her sword and then put it back in the holster. they continued the walk to the place that Kai was taking us to. Luna seemed to be walking slower than usual, and she was holding her side ‘I must’ve gotten cut back there, really badly at that too, I think I can live though,’ Luna thought in her head. Kai noticed her slacking off, “hey, pick up the pace you’re taking forever,” Kai called out to her. Luna’s face was pale, and you could see her eyes were disorientated, Kai waited on her to catch up, when she didn’t she almost collapsed, but Kai caught her. “Jeez, what got into you?” Kai asked. When she didn’t answer, Kai lifted her head up and felt her forehead, she was burning up and she had a slight blush from the fever. Kai sat her down against a tree. “A random fever couldn't just happen out of nowhere” Kai said to himself. Kai felt around her body, as much as he didn’t want to violate her, he might have to see what the problem was. First he started on the stomach, and saw a cut on the side of her stomach, He tore her piece open more to see it fully. The cut was not only infected, but the sharp object that cut her, had some sort of venom on it, you should see the infected veins around the cut, “if this keeps up, It’ll spread to her heart and kill her,” Kai thought. He looked in his bag to see if he had any herbs that could help her.

“I can’t prepare the medicine she needs with this!” Kai thought. Kai heaved a sigh and then took off his hoodie, then wrapped it around her cut. She groaned in pain when Kai said, Kai mentally apologized to her. Kai picked her then put her on his back, she was really light so he could move easily. He started heading to the town they were going to, ‘hopefully someone can help her, I also hope that’s a really slow spreading venom, cause we have a long ways to go,” Kai said as he kept walking.
