[Center][h2]"First layer"[/h2][/center] Sieg decended further down into the abyss with his newly found device. It worked like it was suppose to. The decent went about 20 percent faster so it wasn't the best thing in the world but what could he possibly complain about. It was only a few hunderd meters more down before he found the following platform which his arrow had hit on its way down. Upon setteling down on the second platform he could see more clues on where the girl had gone too. The arrow was sticking to the side of the platform again, after getting closer you could clearly see that the edge of the platform had been clawed at with normal human sizef hands. There was a hint of blood indicating the girl had received a few minor injuries. The girl herself was nowhere to be found and it was almost as certain that she had fallen down from the side of the platform even further down by the clawing marks on the side of the platform. The next platform could be seen but not as clearly as it should have been as it had been blocked off by some clouds that floated around in the abyss. What would our brave adventurer do now. Kai had finally reached the first platform after a long decend. He had remarkably been faster on his way down then he thought he would be from his strength and agility he had build up over the years making some paces to catch up to the boy. Upon arrival he found the exact same clued that the boy had found before him. He could notice the holes in the wall that had seemingly been from Sieg his further decend down. There was nothing more to be found on this platform.

How long have you been in the wild again? I never heard anyone finding a person their smell before. You are like a... Sorry I won't finish that."[/center] Chris managed to make himself blush a little as he was talking. He did not mean to let himself get so talkactive at the moment but he was seriously surprised to hear about the girl being able to do things like this. Perhaps they did have a chance. Chris got his face a little closer to the girl hers. [Center]"Rags I'm sorry to say this but... Please save Rikka and Yuzu for me."[/center] Chris put both his hands on his knees and bowed in deep manor towards Rags as to ask her a favor. Perhaps it was the first time anyone would see Chris in such distress and weak state. Chris sat in the same pose to the whole time waiting for Rags her answere while he bit his lips in anticipation. After Rags her answere (which will hopefully be yes or otherwise we will do a story scene of Rags living happily ever after as farmer or something.) Chris turned his face back up with the look of pure happiness in his eyes. He stood up from his chair almost kicking it back as he hugged the small frame of the girl. He held her tight for a minute before letting her go again and settling himself down on the chair once more as he took a quick gulp of his tea. [Center]"Thank you for all eternity Rags. As for your journey. I would like you to find someone as quick as possible. Just a friend or someone you have seen before. If you are together it is more likely you'll survive. As for instructions. You can do whatever you think has to be done. If you find another possibility to be safe and happy I don't mind for you to do it. As long as Rikka and Yuzu would be happy with it as well. Lastly, have this."[/center] Chris opened up a drawer behind him and grabbed something out of it. He let his hand with the item hover over hers before he dropped a blue whistle out of it. [Center]"It does not mean much but. With that you may descend down till layer two. You'll be safe from anyone trying to hold you back. I trust you with this as you are far more experienced with dangerous situations. You deserve this for your braveness and skill. Now please. I want you to go at night... I'll tell the other what you think is necessary or if you don't want to I'll think up something of my own that is close to the truth. It might not be a happy goodbye but... We can't let the other worry. We might not see each other soon or at all but at least... I'm happy for you to have been part of our family. It was a fun time wasn't it."[/center] Chris gave her a caring smile as he patiently waited for the girl to reply and perhaps... Empty her heart onto him.
