"Hey-" Allon looked back and forth between them confused. Brus.h.i.+ng it off he continued, "came by to check on you two again."

"Everything's the same as it was a few hours ago," Keme replied.

"Doesn't look like it." Tsuru didn't pay them attention while she appeared to be dozing off.

Keme rolled his eyes, "Fine then pretty boy, you deal with her." He stood up gesturing Allon to sit on his spot, "You keep her company, and tell her how terrible it is to be alive."

"I think I should leave-"

"Sit, your a.s.s down!" Keme commanded getting a few awkward glances from pa.s.sengers. A flight attendant was making her way to them and Allon complied to not cause a scene. Keme, on the other hand, walked to his new chair while grumbling something under his breath.

"So... we're sitting on the same row... just the two of us..." Allon's uncomfortable conversation.

Tsuru looked over at him, "If you don't have a good conversation starter just don't say anything at all."

"Sorry."

She replied, "What do you want to say?"

"Tsuru... I know you must really think of me as annoying on this trip, but I'm very glad you let me come. And I well, I wanna share something with you..." He froze up falling silent.

"Go on." She rested her head on her hand directing her attention at him.

Seeing her lips curl up gave him confidence, "Back in Arabia, all those years ago... I..."

For a day that seemed so blurry in her mind was as clear as yesterday for him

A child around five years old sat on the pavement watching the people come and go. His father over at the table in front conducting his usual businesses. The child's eyes wandered through the crowd, landing on an empty alley. However, in that alley, a small golden lamp stood on a piece of wood. Looking mesmerized the child stood up his father unaware that his son was slowly leaving the area.

It was broad daylight yet no one noticed the small boy walking around alone. Eyes glanced at him for mere seconds before continuing their own path. The streets becoming louder and packed with more people.

"s.h.i.+ny," the boy sang steps away from the small golden lamp. He laughed to himself crouching before the small object glancing around seeing no one around.

"Ba.s.sam!" The child's name being called loud and clear made him react out of impulse. Grabbing the lamp In his tiny hands to feel the object pull him in. Ba.s.sam attempted to walk back to his father but by the time he took his first step blue smoke covered his entire being.

The familiar scene drifting into a black lifeless void. A parchment of paper showing words he could not understand. The number five hundredfold flas.h.i.+ng through his eyes. Eyes wandering through the abyss, feeling a trickling sensation in his feet. But a small glimpse of light flashed through the top getting his complete attention, "s.h.i.+nny."

His small hand reached up as if to catch the light, watching his hands intently looking for something. A small wooden hoa.r.s.e appearing before his very eyes, "Horsey." Few words but his eyes so lost in a world none would understand.

Like memory's drifting through the wind Allon was silent

"Weren't you scared?" Tsuru's question brought him back to life, showing her a small smile.

"In all reality, no. I didn't understand what was happening at all, but I just didn't know what to do. I just played around with toys, until they explained the situation... I don't really know what else to say." He sighed heavily looking down, "Well that's about it."

"You were a weird kid then. That day, I cried like never before, I was terrified, so scared of everything." She scoffed, "I was a little coward back in the day."

Allon chuckled, "We all grew up, changed, and some died on the way. Yet, here we all are, together, you and me... and Keme I suppose."

Tsuru fell quiet looking at Allon, her eyes softening to his shock, "Have you decided what you'll do this lifetime?"

"Yeah, I'm going to follow you and Keme around. I wanna experience everything all over again, after all, there are so many places to take you, so many things to show you. It'll be like experiencing it the first time, but with people like me around." He smiled leaning to whisper, "People don't take the whole murder things to well..."

She rolled her eyes at him sighing speaking sarcastically, "You don't say, I didn't notice with Evira's reaction and all."

Allon moved uncomfortably in his seat, "Right, you were there." He laughed lightly, "So, wanna learn the cool new speaking styles, and actually use them?"

"I've never really bothered with them, they change too much. And from what I've noticed I'd say this generation is very rude."

"Oh, you've got no idea...."
