![]() ![]() It all happened so fast they'd both started to fall. The girl screamed as she was caught by surprise. Six gasped as the Pretender quickly lunged at Nona. There was the slight sound of digging as someone clawed at the dirt. Nona too, after catching her breath, smiled back at her. As the beating of her heart eventually returned to its normal pace, that hopeful girl beamed brightly at the older girl. Adrenaline rushed throughout Six's body as she used a long stick to push a heavy bolder off the ledge, letting it fall directly on the Pretender. When the Pretender was chasing after Nona down a cliff, the older girl helped push down a log for Six to jump to safety, despite it giving Nona's purser time to catch up.ĭrawing closer to the end, the Pretender had Nona trapped. Though there were some difficulties along the way, they had persisted. They'd worked together, helping each other. They'd met again after Nona was being chased by the Butler.

Whenever she felt like the world was against her, the only comfort she found was her yellow raincoat. ![]() ![]() Sad memories started to float up from the depths of her heart. The signals were weak in the air, but they still managed to reach her and did more to her than render her powers useless. The Transmission in the Pale City had been affecting her despite her being currently locked somewhere in the Wilderness. She had tried everything, but all possible exits were locked - the reason why the Hunter had succeeded in keeping her here in the first place.
