Am wanted to advise Kaeda to continue walking immediately, because we would soon reach the cloud area. She said it was safer there than here. That sounded logical to me, because we were always in the realm of death. Anyway, Kaeda said goodbye to us and we moved on. "Why didn't Kaeda come with you?" Asked Romy. "Because she still has other things to do. Besides, she is already very old and too much excitement is not good for her," explained Fabian and was hit on the back of the head by Washiza. "Ouch! What's that supposed to mean?" He asked, horrified. "Stop talking about Kaeda like that. She's old, but still in top shape!" He said coolly. I watched the two of them with amusement when I suddenly heard something rustling. I turned around, startled, and saw a bush move. I seemed to be the only one who noticed the rustling, because the others just kept walking. I just overlooked this and concentrated on the bush. I slowly walked closer to him. What am I doing there?!? I scolded myself inside, what if there's a hollock or a monster behind? Then I am Mouse! But I didn't even pay attention to my inner voice. I went even closer to the bushes and just before I wanted to touch it, something jumped out and I was so frightened that I started screaming, which made the others pay attention. I landed backwards on my bottom and stared at the fluffy, green something that was now floating in front of me. It had so much fur that you could just make out its eyes and it held itself in the air with two wings. It was maybe a little bigger than my head and had two short arms that you could hardly see through the fur. "You scared me," I mumbled softly. But then something came out of the bushes again. It was a boy. He was about the same age as Washiza and Fabian, maybe a year older. His green eyes glared at me. "Who are you?" He asked me curiously. "Uh ... my name is Lyndsay," I answered the question a little confused. "Cool, my name is Marco! Puschi took me to you. Are you alone?" He asked again, but this time his question answered itself when my friends came running up. "Lyndsay! What happened? Why did you", Romy got no further. She stopped two meters from me and stared at the boy. No, she really stared at the boy. It looked more like she peered past him. I followed her gaze. Romy stared at this bundle of green fur and her eyes got bigger and bigger. "Whoa! Is that cute!" She suddenly shouted. Washiza was standing next to her and had put his hand on his sword, which he now always carried with him in order to be able to ward off quick attacks immediately. "Who are you?" He asked coolly and with a threatening undertone in his voice. The boy grinned. "And again: my name is Marco!"His grin got a bit mischievous," And you're Washiza, am I right? "Washiza's look was dark, almost eerie." How do you know his name? ", Fabian wanted to know. The boy laughed softly:" Almost everyone knows him! Washiza the only one left, "Marco fell silent immediately when Washiza drew his sword." Shut up! ", he said only in a voice that was just as dark as his face." Why then? Don't we want to hear that, Washi? ", the boy asked in a mock baby voice. You could tell at Washiza that he wanted to kill this boy immediately, but I got up and stood in front of him." Washiza said to shut up! And don't call him Washi, of course! "Washiza was visibly surprised by my act and it was still bad that I didn't know why I did that now. Was it right to get involved in the argument? I asked myself. Marco blinked in amazement, but then composed himself again and then said: "So that's it! If the gentleman is scared, he hides behind a girl! “That was too much of a good thing.” Shut up! ", Washiza yelled, pulled his sword out of its case and went for Marco, who at that moment probably had exactly the same thought. They both rushed towards each other and the swords crashed together. ", Marco asked belligerently. Thereupon one heard a threatening grumble from Washiza. He ducked and wanted to kick Marco's legs, but at that moment he jumped up and wanted to attack from above, but Wahiza made a clever roll to the side and Marco rammed him Sword into the ground where the black-haired boy was before. Oh God! Oh my God, I thought desperately. I looked at the others. They were probably just as helpless as I was. I looked again at the two fighting. Just when they were back running towards each other, a huge green fur ball appeared in the middle and threw them both back again. Go away! ", Marco shouted angrily. But the green thing didn't even think about it and blew something in Marco's face first and then Washiza with lightning speed. The two of them staggered a few steps and then fell over. Oh no! I thought and ran to the two. The green fur thing, which apparently was called Puschi, turned back and was the cute little cuddly toy again. It flew to me. "What did you do? "I asked desperately. Then Fabian came." It's no use talking to him, Lyndsay. Puschi can't talk, "he explained. I looked at him helplessly:" What did it do to the two of them? "Fabian smiled:" Puschi is a little monster. These are actually called pushons. They're not dangerous, but they have the ability to put others into a deep sleep. That means, the two fighters sleep for a while now. No reason to worry."I breathed a sigh of relief.
We found a place behind a large stone and carried the two sleeping people there. I can understand why Wahiza was so freaked out. He certainly doesn't like being reminded of his past, I thought. "When will you wake up again?", Romy wanted to know from Fabian. He shook his head: "I don't know. The time, how long someone sleeps only decide the Puschons." When he said this, he turned to Puschi and looked at the green thing. After a good half an hour, the two boys slowly woke up again. "Ouch ..." Washiza muttered, holding her head. "My skull", then complained Marco and made the same movement. "Then the two looked at each other in shock and then to Romy, Fabian and me. Finally, they gave Puschi a threatening look. Puschi hid behind Romy." Well, finally woke up? ", asked Fabian." Why did you do that, Puschi? ", Marco asked angrily. The ball of fur flinched and Romy answered for it:" If he hadn't put you to sleep, you would have cut each other's heads in! " "So what? It was my goal to get this guy down! ", Marco complained further, pointing to Washiza, who suddenly looked at him poisonously and grumbled:" What kind of rubbish are you talking about? You wouldn't have had a chance against me! "" Sure in your dreams, maybe! ", snapped Marco back." You are already living in your dreams, aren't you? Otherwise you wouldn't tell such crap! "" Aha! If you want we can now decide who is a dreamer! "challenged Marco Washiza." Gladly, you idiot! You have no idea what you are getting yourself into! ", Washiza grinned mischievously." Can you shut up now? Or did you not hear what I just said?!? ", Romy shouted in between. The two boys were startled and only then noticed that the brown-haired woman was crouching right in front of them." But ... "stammered Marco, puzzled." NOTHING BUT !!! ", Romy shouted again and punched both of them in the arm. Ui Ui Ui ... Romy has once again caught one of her moody days. She is not to be trifled with, I thought and bit my lower lip lightly." So, we're going on now . And if I hear even a single note, then you can experience something! "warned Romy in a bad mood." Uh ... does that mean I should come with you? ", Marco asked shyly and ducked his head a little. Romy straightened up again and gave only a short:" Yes! ", from herself. Then she turned and asked," Washiza? Where do we have to go "" Um ... To the right ... ", he answered quietly. Wow ... even Washiza has respect for Romy when she's angry. But she also scares you when she looks at you with her angry look, I thought and then ran after Romy and Fabian, who had already started walking. Washiza, Marco and Puschi were walking behind me.
