Raizen...

The figure in black looked at me in awe, his eyes clenching in confusion then he leaned down and touched my cheek. Still holding the sword in his left hand he flinched back

"Oh...your actually real, what is your name?"

I look up at him, as I keep crawling into the cave.

"Jakai..."

I say weakly, my voice slightly raspy as I reach one of the spiky rocks to the entrance. I grab it then as I'm pulling my body up, the black figure speaks again.

"My name is raizen...also how did you kinda lose your legs...that looks like all bone"

'Tch...he's asking such a stupid question'

I glance back at him, as I glare at him.

"I fell down here, because of that hellish sunlight."

The figure then turns its head, and looks confused. Then he sheathed his shiny blade, and walks over to me.

"Can I carry you?"

"Yes...."

'Sigh.. this is gonna take forever to heal'

As the figure gets closer I finally see his face more clearly, he looks like a teenager, and his hair looks wavy?

His facial features look slightly chisled, and his eyes were wide and innocent. Almost like a lost child... 'I think I feel bad for him'

***

After a stroll through the cave, it looks like it's the most normal thing about where ever I am. And also why someone else that isn't from this "hell" is with Mr.

'So many questions...no answers, unless I wanna get killed by some odd looking creature'

My legs are finally healing my destroyed muscle tissue, after pouring lots of my energy I feel weak...tired...spent. My body is much more fragile than before, I can feel my bones rattle ever step raizen takes.

"Hey...is there any place I can..rest?"

He turns his head to the side, and whispers

"Shh...you'll wake them..."

He points up, and my eyes follow his hand as it shows the roof of the cave. It looks so...damp and wet and I see something breathing on the roof...it was like a bat but.

It's head was cut in half, the bat ears aren't there...only the mouth and a brain on the creature. But then I see something on the shoulders of it, it looks like holes.

A rat which looks dark grey, treads through the ground as It steps on a rock and kicks it accidentally. A black tendril shoots from above skewering it, and then releasing it.

I hold back a gasp, and cover my mouth. Raizen also tenses up, and he moves slower and more calculated. A feeling of dread clenched at my heart ad the slow journey away is even slower.

Every step, every movement raizen did was so gentle, so slow. That not a single step made any sound, it feels like he's done something similar like this.

After walking for 10 to 15 minutes I finally see something almost like light, but instead it's a small fire in the center of a circle in the cave. Then there's wood places in a bed-like manner, with a leaf pillow.

'Wow...that's comfy? I wonder if he has back problems'

"Is this where I can rest?"

He puts me on the wooden bed, and nods his head, and then he lays down on the cold rocky ground. He hugs himself, and curls in a ball.

[The day is finally at its peak]
