Its been a while after Saiya and Roy have met Duo in the Lost Lands and continued their journey without him. They decided to make their way up to the north and happen to cross through Sougen.
There is always the moment when your feet call it quit for today and you should better rest if you don't want to end up with swollen feet on the next day.
Nightfall arrived and the two travelers decided to camp here for the night. "Well, what do you think about this place?" Roy asked, looking over a place that was off of the road and covered with a few rocks and an old tree, everything bathing in the setting suns orange light. "Those are hard to come by out here" He said and patted its wodden crust. Then he turned around to his companion again. "So?" Waiting for an answer.

Despite of the long way Saiya and Roy have traveled, Saiya paid no mind for it. It's a habit of facing all the events as an adventure... for her that is. Though, her mind were vague on something; but despite of contemplating it, she refuse to let it overcome her.
She looked at the sun setting, a smile plastered on her face. She don't know how long it has been, a particular man have entered her thoughts once again. She wanted to forget the man, she knew that both have different ways now, she sighed... all the thoughts from the man have particularly... gone.
She looked at Roy and smile, the grassland would be a nice place to camp; she looked at Gwen and nodded. "This place is definitely a good place to camp." she answered truly as she looked once again at the place, it's far and wide. "Me and Gwen should go and looked for some woods to set on fire..." she added and smile at her friend, picking some nearby stick and thin woods to have a small bonfire.

Roy nodded at her. "Thats a great idea." It sure was handy to have a fire lizard with you on your journey, thats what Roy has learned in the past weeks. He opened the belts that tied his sword and layed it on the ground. It has been a while since he actually had to use it. Their journey has been a quiet and relaxing one most of the time, which doesn't has to be bad at all.
Forming a circle on the ground made out of stones, Roy was waiting for Saiya to bring the wood. Then he spread out the blanket he was carrying next to the fire place and sat down with a yawn. "No matter how often or long our travels are, at nightfall you are always beat." It was relieving to rest your feet after a day of walking. "How are you doing?" He called over to Saiya who had to be collecting wood somewhere near the place.

Saiya softly hummed as she and Gwen fetch some sticks and woods piling up at the grassland. She wondered how long will they be going to stay with each other. She doesn't whine at all... no sir, she likes his presence; the way she like the first man in her heart. She sighed and looked at the woods. "This would be enough, right Gwennie?" the fire lizard cue in agreement, as it landed on top of Saiya's hair.
She looked up at the voice where Roy was and smiled. "We're fine here!" she answered as she looks at the place and at the sun setting. It's not that bad staying in a place like this; though she wouldn't mind to raised her guard, because it's an open field after all.
She don't know if wild animals would eat them or so. As she strides her way at the place, she looked over at Roy and smiled, "Here are the woods... I'll make the bonfire." she said, placing the woods near their place.

When Saiya returned, Roy already layed on his back on the blanket, staring at the sky. He turned around to face her when she kneeled down at the fire place. "Thanks for collecting it." It was really nice never to worry about having fire, thanks to Gwen.
"You know..." he started slowly. "I actually meant how you are doing in general, with the travel and such. Not collecting the wood." He smiled at her.
Sometimes Roy had the feeling that Saiya wasn't really listening if he asked her a question. He was wondering why. Was she troubled with something else that was roaming through her head? Or was it his fault, because of something he did without realizing it?
"You are a bit quiet.." He tried to calm the voices in his head.

Saiya paused and looked at Roy, she smiled apologetically at his way. "I'm sorry..." she let out, as her gaze landed at the stick of woods. She sighed, a smile plastered on her face. "I was just a bit in thought of the place here. It doesn't mean that the place is so peaceful means that there are no dangerous creatures here..." she reasoned out as Gwen landed at the ground, near the fireplace.
Saiya smiled at Gwen and nodded, "Do your thing, Gwennie..." she let out, as Gwen nodded and burst out a small fire. As the Gwen breathe out the fire, Saiya's hand touched the fire as she tried to make it more bigger; the size of a small ball as she directed the fire at the woods.
Once finished, she looked over at Roy whom stated about her being quiet. She only smiled and shook her head. "I just feels like to be quiet... no worries."

Although Roy has seen Saiya and Gwen lighting the wood a lot of times now it never gets old to watch her carefully. "Hmm, you are right." Roy agreed to her worries. He knew she was right, but the truth is that Roy was so tired that he didn't care. Kind of reckless, but experience told him that it really isn't necessary to stay on guard every single second.
After the fire started burning Roy laid back on the blanket again, staring in to the sky and rubbing his temples. 'Do I get a headache..?' He took a deep breath and rested his arms behind his head. 'Yup, she likes to be quiet indeed' Roy didn't know why, but she told the truth. since she was hardly starting a conversation on her own, at least since they started to travel together that is.
So it was up to Roy again to make her talk, just how do you do it without ending up in some meaningless smalltalk? "Hmm, but I like hearing your voice... "
Charme always works.
...
At least he was hoping for it.

Saiya hummed slightly to herself, her gaze down at the fire that envelopes the whole woods. She looked at Gwen whom stayed quite beside her, resting. It has been a long, tiring day to everyone.
Saiya then frowned, looking at Roy who rubbed his temples. "Are you alright?" she asked, her eyes held those worried look. She stopped using her power as she pick up the woods and went into the blankets, sitting on it next to Roy. Gwen followed as it sits on top of Saiya's lap.
She placed down the woods, but stopped in surprised. She heard him pretty well, she furrowed her eyebrows; though a blush forming on her cheeks. She suddenly look away, embarrassed. "Anou..." she stuttered out as she looks at her lap. Though she could not think of any thing to blurt out.

"Mmmh, I'm okay." he lied to her when she crawled over to him. After all Roy wanted her to speak up and not himself to go on about his headache. Then she turned silent only letting out that sweet sound of hers again. Roy didn't turn to her. From the sound of her voice he could tell that she was blushing and having him looking at her might not help at all.
Saiya had these times when she could be very tough, but on the other hand she was also a very shy girl. Roy didn't know which one he likes better, but one thing he knew for sure: Too much shyness erects a barrier which locks her up, especially on a journey with only two people.
While thinking about it, he gave her enough time to get herself together and then he asked. "Do you think about DD sometimes?"

As Gwen curled into a ball-like at Saiya's lap, Saiya remained not looking at Roy's; she petted Gwen's body, somewhat content at the scene unfolds from the two of them. The silence somehow shows the awkwardness, but deep inside, Saiya is content and happy at this kind of silence.
Saiya suddenly stopped petting Gwen's as she looks up at Roy's brown eyes. She frowned, ah yes. The school she have entered, the school in which she have gained and trusted some beings. She smiled, "Yes... I sometimes think of DD." she let out as she continued petting Gwen's body.
"That's where I have Gwen. I met some fellow schoolmates and friends..." she added, her eyes full of happiness. Though sorrow could be tint in those crimson eyes. She suddenly shook her head, she needed to stop remembering the certain guy whom left her behind. And yet, she don't have the guts to hate or loathe the guy.
"It's where I learned things not just from books." she reasoned out as she looked at Roy. "With those pranks Xue Fang did to that Zephel... it's really funny," she let out, a soft chuckle escape her lips. Yes, she finally and somewhat remembers some nice and good memories at that school.
Never have she found irritating things or sort in that school. She looked up at Roy, "What about you?"

Roy smiled at her. From the looks of it reminiscensing some nice memories from back then made her happy, and thats good. He also remembered the name Zephel, and she was right that not just the study itself was worth the visit. But instead of interupting her, Roy just held the eye contact. Then she was the one asking.
Looking away for a second Roy tried to gather his thoughts. If he said 'Same here' or something similar to that. It would be a lie. In fact the old school was crossing Roys mind way to often, and not just the school, more like a certain person from that time.
"I... think about it too. I mean a big part of life like this one can't be forgotten that easily. Not that I would want to forget..." 'Come on, bring up some stories or she might get ideas' he blamed himself. "Well, to be honest I liked roaming around the school with friend much more than the actual classes. I was new to most of this supernatural enviroment. So I learned a lot and there was always something new to discover... or someone."
With his last words he actually thought of everybody he knew there, not just that certain somebody. But Roy already calmed down a bit. Saiya and he had traveled together for so long that he has the feeling that he could share everything with her.

Saiya smiled and nodded, atleast both of them have some memories they could catch up with others. Though, she know that Roy was hiding or haven't told her yet the whole story about him in DD. She was patience to hear it if Roy was ready to speak about it.
But at the mean time, she just wanted to hear anything coming from Roy. She looked down at Gwen, she sighed contently and looked up at the skies and smiled. "Such a peaceful night, ne?" she let out as she looked at Roy.
"Being only human and transferring in a school with full of species that is different with one another... don't you feel a bit intimidated to them?" she suddenly let out, suddenly laughing nervously; afraid that she might offended him at the way she spokes. "Not that I am underestimating you or something, I was just curious and all..." she quickly blurted out nervously. "Sorry if I offended you a bit in my words..." she added and bowed a bit, suddenly embarrassed at herself.

Roy followed her eyes with his and took a look at the sky and its stars. "Yeah, we are lucky that its not raining or storming while we are out in an open field like this one." When his eyes turned to saiya again, they remained on her for a while. He only noticed now that she sat kind of close to him. But maybe it just appeared that way, because Roy was laying down, and she wasn't.
He tilted his head and smiled at Saiyas embarrassing moment. "No need to apologize, its a normal question. And to be honest, I didn't even think about it. I was just happy to have found a place to stay. And to have the chance to make friends again."
He looked up to the sky again before he continued. "To be honest, I never felt intimidated at all. I was even wondering if people who aren't human are better persons than humans themselves..."
The reason for this conclusion was mostly because of Roys former life before he entered the DD. It's been a while that he has actually thought about it though.

Saiya sighed in relief, she and her big mouth; she wanted to hit her head for being so curious. She looked at Roy, he was in deep thought at what she have questioned. She looked at him quietly, gazing at how his deep brown seemed to be in thought.
She smiled, from the start of her meeting him at the Arthera, to seek for an adventure and to here; it's like she have known little of him, yet he knows more of her. She sighed softly, she wanted to know more about him, but from the way his actions trying to avoid something important in a particular event; he suddenly changed the topic.
She respects his privacy, and she won't force him to tell her about it all; she'll be patience and wait for him to tell her all about him.
"Somehow, we of those beings who have another kind wanted to feel like a normal being." she softly let out, her gaze down at Gwen. "Living normal and wanted a peaceful days..." she added and looked up at the sky.
"But, a friend of mine said... 'Unchanging things are boring'." she laughed at her statement, that is one of those words her friend have told her way back in DD. And she would always remember it, as it was a way of how her and Ryuichi got closer.

Saiya remained quiet again. But this time it was a different type of silence; hiding something. The way she looked at him, the way her eyes shined, the way she smiles and the way she didn't turn away blushing this time. Roy couldn't see it. His eyes where still eying the stars.
But he felt it.
However he wasn't saying anything. He enjoyed the atmosphere that began to revolve around them. A comfortable atmosphere of two lost souls, that don't even know about it.
When Saiya spoke up again, Roy fell out of his illusion and replied confused. "To me that sounds like you haven't had the chance to live normal..." Then he let out a chuckle "I don't think that peaceful days get boring. And it doesn't have to be unchanging either..."
Then he turned to Saiya and finally looked at her again. "You know.." He tried to find the right words. "If you have anything on your mind, just say it. Just staying silent in a way is kid of unchanging, don't you think?" He blinked an eye and gave her a smile.
