~~~(Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: 3/4 the way to the border)~~~

~~~(Time: 10:16 AM)~~~

The rest of this trip has been pretty easy, and we've covered a lot of ground. We should be reaching the city at the border in about 5 hours. We're ahead of schedule, which is great. There is a small problem, finding Cera and Sally in the city. We didn't agree to meet at a specific place or at a time of day. An oversight that both of us missed.

Not all plans are perfect, and we were pressed for time, leaving gaps for other issues to arise that neither of us saw. "I didn't think the northern end of the continent would be so beautiful... No wonder the elves prefer this land and no other land." Jasmine has been teaching me about the elves and their history. She's given me a lot of insight into what I might be up against.

The land that we're traveling is mesmerizing, but I heard that the land beyond the borders is something few people other than elves see. Another problem that we didn't talk about, getting into the Elven Kingdom's borders. "Elves are one of the oldest races in the world. They would lay claim to all lands if they didn't have to fight for them." My words are based on realistic expectations. 

They're not good and nice people. They lack the benevolence of other races. Look down on anything other than elves, and even look down on elves of half-blood. In my opinion, they're some of the worst racists I've ever heard of in my life. "Who's talking to me right now? Those aren't the words of the Hailey I know." The chuckling at the end of her tease makes me grin. 

I don't usually speak in such a profound way, if you could call it that. My conclusion of the elven people and their society is similar to the white Americans during the settlement of America in the late 1700s and the majority of the 1800s. The elves haven't literally enslaved a race, but given a chance, I'm betting they would. 

The superiority complex of the elves hasn't changed over the last few thousand years. I can't say if they've always been like this. "I have original thoughts of my own, and I may not be a poet, but I'm capable of deep thoughts and considerations of things outside my view of the world." All I receive in return is an amused scoff from Jasmine.

~~~(Location: 3/4 of the way to the border)~~~

~~~(Time: 10:34 AM)~~~

Hailey is taking the information I've given about the elves seriously. She should too. The elves aren't a race to underestimate or gain the attention of. "I'm glad that you're expanding your mental horizons, but this is out of character for you. I know your smart, but you don't normally talk like it." I hope my observation doesn't come across the wrong way.

The trip to meet up with her brother has shown me a lot about her, mostly that her family is pretty different from anything I've ever seen. "You should hear my brother talk. If you don't have a certain IQ when he gets going, you'll fall behind pretty fast. Luckily, he keeps it chill most of the time." I'm excited to meet Hailey's brother. She's talked about him pretty often.

One of the things I know about him for sure if how strong he is. Hailey has made sure I understand that point, and he's also got an above-average intelligence. "I'm betting the two of you have a lot more in common than you let on. You haven't even told me if he's younger or older than you..." That's something I'd love to know.

How do such young siblings have such incredible power? It's from the classes, but both of them have strong classes that set them out seems suspicious to me. "My brother is a little younger than I am. He is mom's favorite, and I know I'm dad's favorite. Our little brother Marcus is the odd man out, but he's too young to understand that." Didn't expect him to be younger, but that's not bad.

As an only child and ex-slave, I can't relate to anything in regards to family... I envy Hailey sometimes when it comes to that part of her life. Sometimes I dream of what my life would look like if I had a family. "I hope you know how lucky you are, Hailey... There are lots of people out there who would kill to have what you have." She stops and turns her head in confusion. 

That did come out of nowhere. "I'm sorry, that was rude." She rolls her eyes, and we keep walking. Guess it wasn't that big to her. "How much longer do you think we have until we reach the border?" I'm getting pretty tired of this slow walking, but I'm truly glad we're out of the snow now. Hailey decides not to answer me, probably tired of getting asked.

~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Inn room, in bed)~~~

~~~(Time: 11:07 AM)~~~

The warm sheets and blankets are covering both of us, the action in the shower was transferred to the bed. After we had some more fun, we decided to sleep. "This is the longest we've ever slept in..." The clock in the room is telling me it's 11:08 in the morning. I haven't slept past 10 in this world yet. Sally's arm reaches over my chest at the sound of my voice.

We are treating this time to ourselves the way we're supposed to. Together and having fun. I turn my body and sit on the side of the bed. I run my fingers through my hair and release a sigh. Hailey and Jasmine should be arriving any day now. I don't know what's taking her so long. I can only assume it's Jasmine, Hailey's too fast to be taking this long.

Sally leans up behind me and crawls up behind me. Wrapping her arms around my body and resting her head on my shoulder. Her blond hair is falling on me, and her breasts are pushing into my back. "Getting up already?" She must not want to get up yet. I relax and she feels the shift in my posture into something more relaxed.

She gently falls back and pulls me along with her. I was going to go downstairs and get us some food, but that can wait. "You know, that shower didn't go the way I thought it would. Getting all sweaty again after getting out wasn't part of the plan either." Most men would be thinking about the girl holding them, but I'm worried about my sister.

Sally runs her fingers through my hair and kisses the back of my head. "I'm worried about Hailey... She should've been here by now, Jasmine or not, they must've taken a detour or something." I wouldn't doubt that Hailey stopped off at a dungeon or location with something powerful in it. Something that Jasmine could use.

That's what I did when Sally and I started traveling together. I got her a powerful class so she could hold her own against people trying to hurt her and some of the enemies that I'll be facing. "It's okay, Hailey is a big girl. The second strongest person I know, she'll be here." I can't believe I'm being the overprotective brother right now, not something I like to be.

Mom and dad are probably having a blast themselves, along with Marcus. Gaia is so big, they could be anywhere at this point in time. I'm betting they're doing what I used to do. Explore and dungeon dive, that was before my old life fell apart, but it was still fun. "All we can do is wait, and that's not bad..." I look on the bright side, it's given us more time together to relax.
