Risa's POV

"Hey, what's your problem? Why are you looking at me like this? Have I caught your heart or something?" I said to him. He looked at me with a shocked face and maybe even thought that I had thick skin to ask something like this.

"No, I was looking behind you... never mind." he said in a low voice. The ambulance arrived between our argument so I had to let him off. Grabbing the perfect opportunity he started to move out of the alley into the main street. But I grabbed him one again.

"Hey, Mirik! You are quite cute, why don't you fix your attitude and you might become perfect." I told him while holding his arm. The statement made him stop in his tracks and he looked at my face again. But this time it was like he was worried, he was trying to find something. After he analyzed my whole body he looked away but I could see some pain in his eyes.

"I don't need to be perfect...I don't deserve it." he left after saying this. I just had this feeling that he might not be a bad person. He did all this for some reason unknown to us, maybe the stakes were too much for him to go this far. But for the time being, I knew his name and he was in the same place where I had to go.

Suddenly I felt a hand behind me. I was startled but seeing the owner of the hand I breathed a sigh of relief. Sivi was here now I felt safe again. But maybe I was wrong about the safety part, she pinched my cheek and looked down on me like a predator.

"Can you stop getting involved in all these dangerous things for once?" she asked.

"Why are you saying it like I have done it before too?" I asked confused. She looked into my eyes and stopped pinching my cheeks. Did I do things like these before my memory loss? Or she was just being sarcastic? I had so many questions.

"So now you are headed somewhere else miss?" Sivi asked annoyingly.

"No. I realized something after witnessing this fight. I'm not strong enough. I have to train." I said while looking in the direction the boy left.

"And yeah, let's do some training immediately after we reach home" I added while looking at her with sparkly eyes. But her answer was not as enthusiastic.

"No...I have to watch a movie with your brother..." she said, the second part was inaudible to me.

Mirik's POV

What an eventful day. That girl.....she says some wild shit alright. She even made me calm my anger. It's like I'm talking to 'her' again. But I checked her from head to toe she is someone else. I was lost in my thoughts after such a long time that even I didn't believe it. Let's forget her for now.

I had to find that Axe guy. But how? Talk to the information broker? No, I gave all the money to the kids. What other methods can I even use? Beating all the thugs in the area? No, it might turn out just like last time. And those kids were not even proper thugs. I had to beat them because of the rumors.

I was thinking of the ways to find the killer, the sun was going down. I felt someone following me from a distance. I kept walking at the same pace. But he increased his pace as the time went on. When he got in like five meters behind me, I changed my direction and went into a lightly lit alley.

The alley was a dead end. I stopped and finally turned. A man in his late twenties with golden hair was staring me down from not very far away. He had a big guitar case on his back.

"Sorry, bro you have to die. You ask too many questions." he suddenly declared.

"Do you work for 'Garden' blondie?" I asked. He smirked and opened his guitar case.

"You do know too much," he said while taking out a giant axe from the case. I immediately knew I got the man. The man gripped the axe into a low bending stance and a halo of light started coming out of his body.

"A walrus huh? That's unexpected. You have one nice spirit there." I said while getting into a fighting stance. This guy could be dangerous.

"Thanks, man. Now die."
