treating everyone in a good way, everyone starts to be rude, and it will be bad for me later. It’s better to be afraid then. And what?
– No, nothing, – Dale looked from Necroline to Melania, from Melania to Caroline, and then to Zander.
“Today you can rest,” the elder sister graciously allowed, which could not but rejoice.
Necroline nodded her thanks.
– I still have things to do today.
Together, the company headed towards the house, leaving the kunoichi alone with their “business”. Necroline sat at the very edge of the waterfall, listening to the sound of falling water, and looking down, thinking painfully about something. Yesterday’s chamomile stuck out in her hair. Caroline, on reflection, decided to return, approaching her friend from behind.
– Do you want to talk, – rather affirmatively than inquiringly whispered “fair”.
Necroline nodded. Now she looked very tired.
– Do you think about that girl, Lesya? Caroline asked again.
“Yes,” the kunoichi nodded. – She is very similar to me. Melania was threatened, and then I shielded her with myself. They told me to leave otherwise I would die. And I said that I would accept death with dignity. I was then eight years old, no more. You know, I dream that someday I will live in peace and not be afraid for the lives of my friends. But all these horrors… as if it happened yesterday.
– I understand you, – Caroline laid her head on her friend’s shoulder.
“Although something else worries me now,” Necroline hugged the “fair” by the shoulders. “I think I’m starting to fall in love. For the first time, my heart feels something…something other than anxiety.
– Dale?
– Yes. He looks so much like that guy, but is often silent. I read his mind several times. By the way, he didn’t even block me, but Care, he’s completely clean. Honor, pride and feelings – he has all this.
– You’re just afraid of getting burned. Like then… you’ve been alone for too long, so it’s hard to accept at least some feelings.
Necroline sighed sadly.
“Thank you,” the ninja smiled. You have supported and helped me so many times already.
– Necroline, I’m your friend. You can always rely on me.
They were silent for a little longer. Necroline sighed heavily, and Caroline touched her friend’s forehead with her forehead, helping to cope with mental problems. Whatever one may say, but they are still friends, the most real.
***
Necroline was sitting at the table with everyone. Melania and Caroline cooked well, so they covered everyone in the shortest possible time and forced them to eat a variety of delicious food, cooler than any self-assembled tablecloth. Dale and Zander ate with gusto. Ninja very rarely eat well. Usually they have to eat pasture, not really relying on delicacies. Necroline sat gloomy, darker than the clouds.
– What’s the matter? Caroline smiled sweetly at her friend.
Necroline slammed her hand on the table. The girls jumped in surprise, and the guys calmly raised their eyes.
– Takasaki!!! Necroline said the name loudly, clearly, and with her eyes closed.
Dale nodded and immediately choked on his salad as he realized WHAT he had done.
– Hound?! – surprised not that asked, not that approved Melaine.
– How did you know? Dale, or now Takasaki, slowly got up from his seat, pushing his chair back.
– Purely by chance, – Necroline also stood up. – Why did you lie?
– Necroline, he’s half Hound. His father was a Hound, and his mother was from the village of Haya, – Zander smiled disarmingly.
– Why did you lie to me? the ninja girl insistently repeated her question.
– I lied, and then by accident, – the elf made honest eyes.
Necroline stood up, threw her dark cloudy cloak around her shoulders and said:
– I’ll be back late.
The door creaked shut behind the girl. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
– So the Hound, – thoughtfully confirmed Melaine.
Is this a reason to hate a person? Takasaki asked.
– You understand Necroline correctly. Her family was killed by the Hounds. All Haya dream of revenge. The first one she will kill from the Hounds will be you, – Melania smiled bitterly, but confidently. “Though not all is lost. A truce is possible. By the way, where did my sister go?
“Save Lesya,” Caroline replied.
– The dark ninja saves, something terrible is coming, – Zander grinned and everyone burst out laughing.
***
Necroline came to the only fourth building in their settlement, still not understanding why she was doing it. As expected, Lesya was already there, on the roof, and someone else was with her. There is not a soul on the street, which was the norm at such a late time – it has become a kind of tradition in the settlement to spend evenings surrounded by relatives and friends. Dark dog. But ninjas see well in the dark thanks to the pumped human data, including with the help of magic.
Necroline climbed to the roof and saw a phenomenal picture. Lesya stood in a fighting stance, and opposite her a demon hung in the air. Demons are generally rare in this world, because in order to summon a demon, great magical power is needed. Every ninja dreams of “killing a real demon”, like killing a dragon in the Middle Ages.
Necroline attacked immediately, without asking too many questions, thereby saving Lesya from inevitable death. The fire attack burned the enemy, leaving only a clot of dark ash. Necroline chuckled. “Fire” is unique in the world, as well as the other three elements of nature. Most demons die from the touch of fire. The only exceptions are fire and water demons, they had to be tinkered with.
– You saved me! Leslie smiled. “So you still have Light in you.
The little girl was engulfed in a golden radiance, and snow-white wings luminous with purity and whiteness grew behind her back.
– I’m an angel. Necroline we will meet again.
The angel flew away, leaving Necroline, who stamped her foot in annoyance. It all happened too fast to be true.
***
Necroline returned home even more gloomy than she left. When asked: “What’s the matter?”, The girl honestly answered that she had saved the Angel…
They laughed at her for a long time
