After my time between me and Wukong, every fear and worries I've had soon was lifted. I couldn't help but to feel genuinely happy Wukong taken away my worries. I felt reassured after Wukong promised me to teach me some basic training and how I can overcome obstacles in the near future.

His comforting speech has given me so much warmth and safety.

Soon after the morning sunrise, Tripitaka woken up. At first he was scared of where I've gone off, the idea of me getting kidnapped again made him worry more but soon his worries slipped away after he saw me with Wukong.

He felt happy seeing me walking again, telling me how worried he was when he and Wukong found me on the floor. Lastly Pigsy didn't seem he wanted to wake up early, Wukong had to step in and kick him to wake him up. Let's just say Pigsy was kicked enough to send him flying. Wukong promised it was by accident......not really.

While everyone took a refreshing morning wash up, Wukong started breakfast, Pigsy was taking out the plates and chopsticks, Tripitaka was packing away his bed, while I....did nothing.

"Come on Tripitaka, I can atleast fold my own bed. Let alone, the blanket" I said, standing outside the tent

Tripitaka crawled out from the tent with a smile, holding two bag pillows in each of his arms.

"No-no, you need to rest. You just barely got better, and I doupt you'll be doing any walking for a while" he said, getting up

"You will need plenty of rest from walking from now on." He says, walking over to the horse, putting the beds inside the horses bags

"Maybe, but I can't just lay around and let you guys do all the work" I walk over to the Dragon Horse, putting my hand over his head. At first he didn't seem to trust me, but after a few gentle pats over his coat. He relaxed and didn't mind me

"Alya you're still hurt from before, and I can not let you work yourself to the bone. Please, I insist you should take sometime to rest" Tripitaka assures me,

"Breakfasts is ready" Wukong calls to us as Pigsy gives Wukong a giant oversized plate for himself. Making Wukong give him a tired yet annoyed look at him,

I smiled softly at the two, mainly towards Wukong direction.

He noticed and smiles, we looked at eachother for a moment. Really taking in the appreciation of peace right now. No monsters, no demons, no danger. It's peaceful,

"Are you guys gonna stare or are you going to give me food?" Pigsy asks Wukong,

Wukong smack the back of his head with a wooden spoon, glaring embarrassingly at Pigsy. Making Pigsy groan in pain, and soon started to fight.

Those two...

"Besides, I do believe I wasn't the only one who was worried about you" Tripitaka tells me, making me feel a hint of blush at the corners of my cheeks.

"Having Wukong and Pigsy in our journey, we have nothing to worry about"

"A-actually, there is something else I should tell you.."

"Yes?"

"Well, as you know me and Wukong started talking and...we both were talking this morning, that maybe it's best if I learned how to...fight" I tell Tripitaka,
