* Next day, inside the city *

"Ahh yesterday I was so tired... Now however, I feel like never before . I can predict that this day will be a good one. Now guys,dont try to steal luck from me. Hehe, time for some fun !" Rogu said, first thing in the morning, in a totally out of character manner.

"Well, lets put our valuable time, into something actually good, and go outside... I have yet to visit that Bar." Zarth said.

Their good mood, affecting even Rachel " Agreed. Imma go and visit that store, I've been drooling over those diamonds, for a long while. And now that I have the money, hehehe."

Everyone, getting something less than 1 gold, since they gave 20% of the 3 gold to Michael, and split the rest to 3. 60 silver to Micheal, and 80 silver each of them, should be enough to buy whatever they wanted.

*A few hours later*

"Aahhh Why me !?! Why am I so friking unlucky !" Rogu yelled to no one in particular.

"Huh, what happened ?" Both Zarth and Rachel exclaimed, feigning ignorance.

"Ahh you know what I'm talking about ! You stole my luck, didn't you ? Else, there is no way you guys could be that lucky, and me... being like this."

"What are you talking about, you are fine."

Rogu said with a bitter smile "Oh you know full well what I'm talking about ! I'm not like a certain someone that while dead drunk in a bar, managed to get the address from a lovely girl there. Or like a certain miss, that while trying to get a better deal, managed to completely and utterly scam the manager, for things, only god knows what."

"Hey there were skills involved too" yelled , both Zarth and Rachel with one voice.

"Still that doesn't make you unlucky.." said Zarth.

"Ermm I think you forgot about that... you know, the fact that he was stolen of all of his money, while trying to buy something good for himself... I pity you, Oh poor soul! " Rachel reminded Zarth, while at the same time, rubbing salt on the wound of Rogu.

"Oh yea.. that happened." Zarth said, in a completely deadpan manner, Trying to conceal a small smirk on his face.

The day, was still bright, and all the shops had traffic. It was a very bustling city. A city, worthy to be called mid ranked.

"So when are we leaving ?" Zarth finally brought the sad question, that everyone wanted to know the answer of.

"What, why be in a rush.. we can stay here for a few months, and enjoy life. We have enough money for that." Rachel said, not expecting from the biggest "playboy" of all, to want to leave Rainer city, to return to Town, a small ranked city. The differences in quality between those 2 places were enormous,and since they had done a great deal of a journey to reach here, she would have expected him, to want to enjoy it more.

"It's not that I want to leave, but you know right... I made a promise to my sister, that I would be there, for her birthday..." Zarth answered their disbelieving looks, with a one of his own " What, you didn't expect me to have that side, didnt you ?"

And that answer left Rachel "Ohh, that's so cute of our little Zarthy." Yea, it was expected to be like that.

"Honestly, I had totally forgotten about that. I guess, we better go through the forest again, to save time. So who's rea-"

"DON'T !!" A voice interrupted Rogu, as he was speaking.

"Eh, What ?!?" Exclaimed Rachel, caught by surprise.

"Don't leave the city, for the next month, unless you want to live. You have a weird smell on you." A small kid said, seeming not more than 7 years old.

"Huh ?" Everyone exclaimed, with questioning looks.

"Kid, what happened. You lost your parents ? You know it's dangerous to head out all alone in a big city." Zarth said to the kid.

"Mind you telling us the reason !?" Spoke Rogu fast, but the kid was nowhere to be found.

"What the heck was that ?" Everyone asked each other.

"And you. You actually asked for the reason.." Zarth said, with a mocking smile.

"I don't know. But I felt, something in those kids words.. " Rogu answered.

"Yea, like the amazing luck you were supposed to have today." Zarth continued.

Rachel trying not to laugh said " Still, it wouldnt be bad, to actually investigate this matter. I mean, we have nothing to lose."

"Ermm I guess so.." Zarth said giving up.

*2 hours later*

"Sooo, now that we found nothing, can we please get going. Ahh I can't believe you two forced me to take 3 baths..." Zarth complained

And Rachel said "Heh, still better safe than sorry."

"Still, we better get a good night's sleep for tomorrow. After all, we have to start fast, if we don't want to go through the woods. It only takes about half a day, if we are alone, and rush to go through the Darkwood Forest, and a week, to go around it. If I remember well, your sister's birthday, is on 3 days, right ?" Rogu said

"Yes." And a monotone answer was all that he got. Leaving so soon from the city of his dreams, seemed to annoy him a bit, but he almost immediately came back to himself, when thinking about his sister.

"Yea.. so I guess we better sleep early tonight. This is my order for you guys. SLEEP!" Said Rachel in a funny and deep voice.

And so the day passed, and night knocked the door.
