Raven felt Derra's breathing slow and smiled to herself. She started to wonder what her and Derra's status were, but shook that question away and started to fall asleep herself.

Derras hand, while in his sleep. Held onto ravens And derras eyes opened a little but he didn't move his head. he noticed that raven had fallen asleep. Instead of trying to slip his head out of where it was he nuzzled his head into ravens neck And hid the top part of his face in ravens neck. Then derra rembered something. Anik had said something in the forest and derra hadn't asked him yet what he meant y it. So he snapped his ingers with his free hand and a note appeared in front of anik in darek letters saying 'what did you mean by my eyes?'

Anik just chuckled and burned the note.
"Don't you know? The eyes tell everything and to an experianced Reader as myself. You held that information in your mind as if you had a word on the tip of your tongue. You'd have been better off stapling one of your little notes saying, 'A few days ago I was 13'. Even that would have been less obvious," Anik explained and took another long drag on his cigarette.
"You'd be better off forgetting things you never want people to know. I tought Raven the very same," Anik chuckled again and stared up at the sky.

"Thats what you ment...."Derra said with a sigh. He looked up at raven annd just wondered. what would have happened if he was still thirteen. he might not be here at the moment. Hell he might not have even met her.
In came the entrance of a man coming in through the front door of the hotsprings. He asked for a locker key and went into the mae changing room. It had been a year since he had come to these hotsprings." I wonder how many are still alive here." He told himself as he put botrht of his daggers and clothing into the locker and put on an orange trunk with dark swirls on it. He entered the springs and looked around with is ornge eyes. He decied to go to the emptisst spring which was somehwere in thte back. Once he found a good spot. He quickly got inside the water and allowed his enitre body to go under the water. His eyes were closed and he was in a dep state of thought. Izto had finally came back to ria to finsh his last years in the school.

"One will never know about 'what if's. It's better just to live how you are and I suggest not to think so that everyone can here you," Anik suggested with a tired groan.
He opened one blue eye and noted a boy with white hair walk by. He did a slight double take before opening both eyes and sitting up.
"No way," he whispered to himself and shot a quick look at the sleeping Raven before watching Izto go on his own way.
+*+
***
The two kamas on the ground glowed and vibrated happily as if they reconized Izto's presence and were extremely glad to see him again.
They started to make a high pitched humming noise and quieted once Anik placed a firm hand on their blades.

"Raven..."Izto said under water and quickly sat up. Though he was sittng in a position that raven, derra, and Anik were behind him. "And i didn't notice them sooner." he told himself. but he wasn't going to interrupt them at the moment. He first wanted to see ravens reaction to seeing him.
Derra slid hi head out of ravens shoulder and gently put her head on his shoulder to look at Izto. He knew him by his sister. His sister as bitten by Lucia so he had seen and heard of him a few times." i didn't think I'd see him here." He said quietly to himself. He looked over at the Kama's when they made noise. It seemed to him that raven had knew him.

Raven sat bolt upright when she heard the kamas. She took one look at them and understood everything.
"Izto..." she murmmered and looked around slightly when she saw the back of him.
Had he noticed her yet? Did he not want to see her? Is that why he didn't make contact.
She leaned heavily against the side of the hotspring and bit her lip, confused as what to do.
~*~
+*+
"Raven?" Anik addressed her worried and knelt on the edge next to the girl.
"You don't have to say anything if you don't want to," he said when he noticed her shaking slightly.

derra got confused with everything that was happening. raven bolted up quickly after hearing the kamaas react."She does know izto...." He said quitely as he got out of the pool and dried off quickly. he put is clothing back on and took a seat next to anik."How does raven kow Izto."He asked anik quitely.
"Raven...come here." He told her loud enough for her hear. He turned his head towards her Just enough forhis right side of his face to be seen and his right eye looked ove at her. He wondered what she had been doing this whole time, he thought she had died last year but he was actully hapy to see that she was alright.

Raven looked away from Izto as Derra got out of the pool. She was so confused. Just when she had gotten over everything that happened he pops up again.
She flinched when he called over to her. The way he said it came as a command and it had a slight sharpness that she never remembered to be in his voice.
"Yea, yea I do," she told Anik and got out of the hotspring she was in to join Izto the one he occupied.
She slid into the water next to Izto and just sat there waiting for him to speak first.
~*~
+*+
Anik turned his head slightly to Derra, but still kept his eyes on Izto and Raven in case he would need to go over there and play the big brother.
"Toshi told you that he believed Raven could never love again...obviously he was wrong as she still holds on to you like you were her rock...which you probably are, but not the point.
His reasons to believe this were Zak murdering her fiancee and then when she tried to love again at the old Ria she got seperated from him by the destruction and believed him dead.
Izto was her lover at the old Ria and he's obviously anything, but dead. I never thought he would be, but there was always that chance," Anik finished his story, his eyes still on Raven and Izto.

Raven hugged him back and that when she lost it. She broke down completely and started to cry into his neck.
"I thought you died," she cried into his neck.
~*~
+*+
"I officially don't know what kind of sign to take this as," Anik said to himself as he watched the two embrace.

Derra wasn't in the mood to be seing this so he stod up fom his seat and stretched his back."I'm gonna leave now, i'm not in the mood to be seeing this." He said quitely as hi body entered the shadows and left.
"Raven...please don't cry. you know you make me feel worse when you cry." He said trying to hold back his tears that kept on slipping out odf his eyes."You know raven....i still love you." he whispered into her ear.

Raven pulled away from him slightly and wiped her eyes, "I know, I'm sorry."
All the muscles in Raven's body tightened when he said those four words. She looked for Derra out of the corner of her eyes and saw him disappear into the shadows.
She hung her head and sighed, "When did everything become so complicated?" she asked.
~*~
+*+
"Running isn't going to help your case any," Anik said as Derra started to slip into the shadows.
"It also helps prove you're 13 at heart. Only children run from their problems," but Anik then realized he was talking only to thin air.
"His problem," he murmmered to himself.

Izto looked to the side and understood by what raven meant."You love derra...." He said quitely as he stood up And sighed. "I...."He said nothing but just sat back down. The first thought on his head was to leave. but first he wanted to hear what raven had to say.

"No...I...I don't...Jesus ******** Christ," she sighed angrily wondering when speaking got as complicated as thinking.
"I don't know what I feel, towards anyone. It took me so long to get back on my feet after Ria got destroyed and...and...I thought I lost you Izto. I spent a year with Anik, getting mental therapy from his mother to clear out all the bad thoughts and feelings," she explained trying to get her racing brain to make sense to her tongue.
"I...I just need to think...Artemis, Apollo," the kamas flew into her out stretched hand and she got out of the hotspring her clothing reappearing on her body as she went.
"You know how to find me," she told Anik, "Now that I know you're alive I can find you," she told Izto then swept at the air with her kamas and stepped through the portal that they created in the air.
~*~
+*+
"Well look who's back from the dead. Long time no see," Anik said strolling over to Izto.
"What do you plan on doing?" he asked suddenly very serious.
