Mira wasn't asleep since she was worried about Rika. She heard her come in and leave again. Quickly getting up she hurried out the door after her.
-Rika wait for me..- she called out softly.

Rika spun and in a flash had the spear point of her gliave under Mira's chin. Seeing who it was Rika pulled back her gliave and it popped back to whereever Rika kept it when not in use.
"Mira...Don't do that." Rika scolded in a hot whisper. "Go to bed! I'm just going to the bathes." Rika ordered and glared at her.
Turning again Rika strode down the hall, her hair streaming behind her.

Mira almost screamed but she covered her mouth to muffle it. She was very startled by the spear thrust but quickly brushed it off.
The scolding wasn't anything new so her feelings wern't hurt. -Rika please wait for me, we could bathe together- she said as she hurried over to her.

"No." Rika said bluntly and kept walking, her long strides propeling her faster then Mira might be able to walk. Suddenly En vaporized infront of Mira. 'Stop.' He ordered her and gently took her shirt pulling her back to the room.
'Rika needs to think! Leave her be.' He ordered, voice stern.

She sighed deeply and look down shyly. -Yes sir...I aplogize for my actions- Her voice soft and slightly disopointed.
She raised her head to En's level and looked at him. -En? Why doesn't Rika like me? Do I bother her to much?- Mira asks nervously as tears drip from her eyes.

En released a low rumbled. 'Do not be sorry, Rika is just edgy.' En pushed her slightly hard her to keep her moving.
En's yellow eyes met Mira's tear filled ones. He licked her face with his rough tounge. 'Do not fret young one.' He comforted. 'Remeber, Rika is also just a girl, being a witch you know. Maybe she's older to you, but in the witch world, she's young, very. Older witches can be... jealous of her power.'
'She's not used to company. You may make her feel like you're under her feet, but she does care.' En licked her once more before pushing her up to his back and galloping them off to the room.

En's words always brought her comfert and he always knew when to take her somewhere else. She wanted to be helpful to Rika but she didn't know how.
Mira hugged En as they walk back to the room. Her tears were gone but her disopointment lumed within her.

En dropped Mira into her bed then slowly unravled to go whereever he went when he wasn't using a form.
Rika sighed and dropped into the hot, steaming bath. Her hair was pulled up and her red eyes clearly visible. She sat there till she pruned thinking, playing that profecy over and over, haunting herself with it.

Mira layed on her bed thinking about how Rika and her met. Rika had always seemed cold and distant, but Mira knew that she cared for her. She was safe with her and never hungry or in danger.
Mira's healing abilitys were the only thing Rika asked of her and she was glad to help, but she wanted to do more.

Rika had fallen asleep in the bathhouse and awoke when the first rays of false dawn touched her face. Rika climbed out and wrapped herself in a towel as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes.
She put on her clothes and grabbed her staff as she left the bath house. Their room was on the top floor and Rika ran up the spiral stairs.
Rika slowed as she reached the room, she didn't knock only slipped the door open minimaly. Mira was asleep, En was where-ever he went when alone.
Rika crept in and grabbed her gliave then crept back out quickly and quietly.
Going out to the large and empty practice grounds Rika pulled out her gliave. The spear like weapon was made of long heavy wood with a razor sharp curved blade at the end.
Making room Rika started her battle dance, a mix of complex steps, spins, blocks and lunges one might use in battle. Slowly, warming up, Rika sped up her steps.

Mira layed there in her bed sleeping soundly as Rika trained. She was up late the night before thinking deeply about her past. Beams of sunlight shoned across her face but she continued her slumber.

After about twenty minutes Mira got up and noticed that Rika wasn't there. She started to get worried and quickly got out of bed. She noticed that the gliave was missing and she calmed. -She must be training or something- she thought to herself as she dressed.
With her body fully dressed she hurried off to the training grounds. Stopping at the door she saw Rika slashing and thrusting her spear. Mira just leaned agenst the wall and watched her.

Rika spun her gliave thrusting it into the air then spun herself kicking out then as she landed grabbed her gliave from the air and doing spin kick.
She spun to a stop, panting. A slip of color caught her eye and she turned bring Mira into full veiw. "Mira is just after dawn....why are you up?"
And why hasen't En come to tell me where she was? Rika thought but kept it to herself. Ever since the incedent Mira was always under one of either Rika's sharp eyes or En's all knowing ones.
Rika snapped, transporting her gliave back to the room. Taking a firm grasp of Mira's shoulder she steered the small girl to the dining hall.

-I got worried when I didn't see you in your bed, I just wanted to know where you were Rika- she said nervously as she was pulled along.
Mira wimpered slightly from the firm grip but obedently followed her "big sister". -Can I ask you a few questons Rika?- she asked while she looked up at her.

Rika loosened her grip when she felt Mira tighten. She led her to a table and plopped her down in a chair at the bar. Rika sat down next to her, her red eyes were thoughtful.
The waitress came over and Rika ordered hot tea and biscuts for the two of them. "Ask away, Mira." Rika fiddled with her tea cup, its contents steaming. Her eyes stared out into the gloomy distance.
