I was still running away while holding rika from the town and the woman in armor and the cops as we were running in the green plains that were ahead of us

I've been running for what have been hours without stopping once as all distances weren't safe from them as I was getting exhausted from running

"HEY I THINK YOU SHOULD STOP NOW!!"shouted rika as this didn't stop me one bit

"Besides you're too tired you've been running for two days"

All of a sudden like a cartoon I felt my body abandon me as I tripped and fell down as rika fell down as well with me as we both rolled around as she slid alongside me as I got smaller into my normal form

Rika got up and started to dust her clothes off as she was angry

"UGH!!THE ONLY CLEAN CLOTHES I HAD AND YOU NOT ONLY TORE THEM WHEN WE FIRST MET BUT YOU ALSO RAN ME THROUGH THE GROUND!!"she said

Meanwhile I could barely get up

"Ugh too tired"i said

"No wonder!!you've been running for so long"

"So....hungry"i said as she sighed and decided to drag me to a nearby singular tree and put me there as she layed down besides me

"So what now?What's the plan now that we're both world class criminals"

"I thought you hated me after what I did?"I asked her

"I am but you also mentioned Sarah,how do you know her?"

"She studied with me,we were friends for a while

But things happened and we split up and she disappeared ever since but she recently  came back as a grown up and wanted to see me dead"i said

"That doesn't add up"

"What do you mean?that she disappeared?or that she came back as a grown up"

"Nevermind that,you should have never met her in the first place"she said

"What do you mean?"I asked her

"This isn't important now and I don't trust you yet with this information"she said

"Fine keep your secrets"i said

What followed was a moment of silence between us as we sat there with the sun over our heads which was interrupted by our stomachs growling hoping for food but especially mine considering I was thirsty,hungry and most of all tired

"Is there any food around here?restaurants or a bar to get a drink from?"I asked as I yawned

"...or better yet a hotel to sleep in"i said as before I knew it I fell asleep

+++++++++++++rika PoV+++++++++++++

How careless,to fall asleep when he's fully aware that at any moment I could deliver to the authorities,it wouldn't take much convincing to make sure they are aware I am not his friend

But then again...

I still need to know how he knows sarah and If I know everything it might be my clue to find the others

He's still useful to me

So I just watched him as he slept until his stomach growled again for food

"Ugh"i cursed as I started to look around to see anything I could get him to eat

I started to look around to make sure he was really asleep and sure enough he was

I started to mess around with the dirt uncovering it from under the grass as I then started to control the flow of water upwards by making flowy motions with my hands which directed the water upwards towards me straight to the dirt as it combined it with and I started to shape it into a bowl and then solidified it

"Now I need to get food"i said to myself as I grabbed a pebble and walked around searching for some meat and as I did I found a herd of bouffetou sitting there

I knelt down as the stone started hovering over my hand as I flicked it on the side downwards lightly as it started spinning and the speed increased more and more

And then flicked it again after I aimed directly at one of them and then...

Headshot

The other bouffetous ran away but one was all I needed as I ran to it and started carrying it all over to near the tree as I put it down

I grabbed some of the branches of the tree and sucked all the water out of those so they would work better for a fire and piled them up on each other and put the water inside them on the bowl

She then looked at the dead bouffetou and prepared for what came next

Skip the details;

I was done preparing and cooking the meat of the bouffetou as

I learned to skin them by myself when I was on the run for stealing a rare jewel and got stuck in a forest so I learned how to survive on my own and how to hone my spiritual powers during that time in pursuit ever since I couldn't find my family anymore

I then looked at him

Even If he may be the doom of both of us,he's still my only way to finding out what happened to my family

I then looked at what I prepared

Bouffetou cutlets and steaks and plenty of them and a large bowl of water with that to quench his thirst
"Hmm~

Man I'm feeling much better now and Oh?

Is that food I'm smelling?woah so much of it and water too!man I can't thank you enough even after all the things I put you through"he said as he grabbed an entire steak and shoved it in his mouth entirely

"You're quite smart aren't you?you know I can't take you to the police because I'll be arrested with you and because you know things I want to know"i said

He smiled

"Hey we got to have a bit of trust between us no?"he said as he  left of a cutlet nothing but small bones

I guess this is going to be our new life for a while now

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

So I might try and start to take more time with the things I do due to getting some good feedback from an unknown source so yeah look forward to that
