"Thank you, and don't worry, I'll ask next time." She stated before laying down onto the space Joshua just made for her. She continued to cover herself with the cover cloth made for the wagon. She fell asleep quickly.

Joshua rubbed his eyes and yawned. "I still need some sleep..." He re positioned himself in the wagon, sat back and quickly fell asleep. The sun would rise soon. As Joshua slept, he dreamed of calmly fishing back in Zoulae.

The sun was rising. Since the night was over, it was getting warmer now. Kita was sleeping comfortably in the wagon with the cover. Suddenly a large cheer was heard from the village because of the festival, waking her up suddenly. She yawned as she stretched, waking up. She noticed Joshua was still asleep. She wondered what kind of celevration was going on that caused such a stir in the village. She stood up in the wagon, folded the cloth cover, and placed it in the spot she slept quietly. She didn't want to wake Joshua up. She got the compass, happy that it was a gift. She jumped out of the wagon and started walking towards the village. It would take a good five minutes just to walk there.

Joshua woke up from a loud boom of voices. He yawned and looked back for the girl. "Did she leave?" Noticing the folded sheet, he jumped out of the wagon and looked around. Stopping a nearby group of people. "Umm, excuse me. This may sound odd, but have you seen a girl with wolf ears and a tail?"

Kita was walking through a wheat field on the way to the village. By now, the festival was in full swing, with cheers, talking, music, and dancing being done all at once.
Kita suddenly heard a click and looked behind her. There was a middle-aged man aiming a crossbow at her. He had a scowl on his face. "What the hell you supposed to be?" He demanded. "You're some demon here to give me trouble, ain't ya?"
"How rude! Not even a hello and here you are giving ME trouble!" Kita had come straight at the man, she lowered and held his crossbow with her left hand while she poked him square in the chest with her right, while holding the compass. "Why, of ALL the disrespects I've taken, YOU'RE the WORST! Do you have any idea who I am?" Kita was starting to get easily annoyed from somebody calling her a demon. The wheat around them seemed to wilt slightly.

The small group gave Joshua a weird look. One spoke out suddenly. "What the hell are you talking about?" Another followed after the first. "Just ignore him... He's obviously hungover from the celebration yesterday..." They left in a hurry.
Joshua blankly stared as they walked away. He sighed, grabbed his fishing rod, and continued to walk around looking for the wolf girl. "Where is she...?" Even though he looked somewhat strange walking around with his fishing rod, keeping it on him always made him feel calm. Making his way to the wheat fields on the outskirts of the village. Looking around, he sees the goddess next to a man hold a crossbow. "Oh no..."

"Only some thing with the confidence to do that MUST be a demon!" The man yelled as he suddenly grabbed Kita's wrist, twisting it. Kita screamed a little in pain and dropped the compass, which broke when it hit the ground. As she got hurt, the wheat around them instantly started wilting.
The man dragged her along, he had dropped the crossbow and was pulling her by the tail. Considering that he had already prepared a cage, he had already seen Kita outside. He threw her inside and locked the gate. Even though she was chucked inside the cage, she quickly got up and as the old man was locking the gate, she made a large scar on the side of his face by reaching between the bars. The man recioled back, feeling the slight blood drip down his face. "Tch, let's see what the guards and the town priest think of you..." He then left the back of his house and started towards the village.
Kita just sat back and started weeping.

Joshua dropped to the ground in an attempt to hide himself from the man passing by. After he was out of sight, he got up and sprinted to the back of the house. He saw Kita inside the cage weeping. "Kita...? Are you okay...?" As he talked, he crouched down next to the cage.

Kita looked up. Tears were sliding down her face. "Joshua? By the gods, it IS you!" She smiled as she stood up, holding the bars of the cage. "You need to get me out of here, he's going to go get a priest. I'm not worried about the guards, but the priest will immediatley consider me as a devil! I don't know where the key is, it's gotta be around here somewhere..."

Joshua grinned. "I don't need a key." He holds up the end of his fishing rod and uncurls the hook. He then sticks the hook into the lock and starts trying to pick the lock. "Did that man hurt you at all?" His eyes stayed focused on the lock as he talked.

"I'm fine..." She said quieltly as she hid her hand behind her. Her wrist was already showing a bruise from where the man had twisted it. "But..the gift you gave me broke..." She stated sorrowfully. "Now I can't find my way North..." Her ears drooped a little from sadness.

Joshua glanced up for a moment, but quickly went back to the lock. The lock clicked and the cage door opened. "Come on." He held out his hand to help Kita out of the cage. "There is one way you can go north... I might be heading up that way soon... I guess... I guess you could travel with me..."

She didn't take the hand to help stand up, but instead practically leaped up towards Joshua. She hugged him tightly. "Even knowing that your gift is ruined, you'll still help me? Oh thank you...I'll make sure to tell a firend of mine to help you catch a lot of fish later..." She smiled.

Joshua spread his arms apart so he wouldn't touch Kita. "You know you're still naked..." As soon as he was released from her hug, he grinned and started to head back to the village. "If you are going to travel with me... You might have to get some clothes..." The man that was with Kita before was walking back with the town priest. In a quick reaction, he dropped to the ground and lightly dragged Kita with him. He put a finger over his lips and shushed her queitly.

Kita did not enjoy being pulled down, but she saw why after Joshua had put his finger over her lips.
"So, Mr. Mankard, what did you want to show me?" The Priest asked the old man. "You gotta see this, some demon child was wanderin through my wheat patches!" He said as he opened approached the back of his house and stood, open mouthed at the open gate. "but,...but I was sure I put it in there!" He pointed.
"Are you sure you didn't enjoy the festivities too well last night, Mankard?" The Priest chuckled a bit. "Either way, if you DID see something, come back to the village with me. No point worrying about something so small when there are festivities all around you." The old man simply nodded, thinking and recalling the events. He seemed to have forgotten about his scar. Both the man and the priest started walking back towards the village until they were out of sight.
Kita breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh thank the gods they didn't find us..." She stood up.
