"What the heck?! That means that we are all orphans now. Except for Sho… I think I’m gonna throw up…” Nino said as he rushed to the side of the boat.
Aiba came over to Nino with a towel.
“Still seasick?”
Nino nodded as he took the towel in appreciation.
“Say, how long are we going to take to get to Mikatsuki?” Sho asked Yamaguchi.
“Well, we can’t sail over to Winsor now that the Enlightened are after us…. So we are going to sail across directly to Dragas, there are plenty of spots that we can land undetected there. If the good weather holds up and I’ve got my directions right, we should reach Dragas in another two days.”
“This is good weather?” Sho asked.
“Yup, this is Misty River after all, though more like a sea than a river. It’s quite big honestly.” Yamaguchi noted.
Sho nodded as he looked at the back of a still puking Nino. For his friend’s sake, he hoped they would reach Dragas as soon as possible. Sho was heartened to note that Nino seemed less cold towards him and Ohno now, even though he still refused to talk about his past. But at the very least, Nino wasn’t pushing Sho away like he used to. Whether it was really because Nino was warming up to them, or because he was just too seasick to care, Sho couldn’t tell.
Sho sighed as he settled down into his bunk below deck for the night. Things were moving way too fast. He could barely comprehend what was happening. Since the time he left home and met Aiba and Nino… So much has happened along the way. Sho cast a glance at the sleeping Ohno. He was glad that Ohno had recovered now. Aiba seemed like a good chap, and Nino seemed more friendly now… But if things comes down to the crunch, Sho knew that at the very least he could count on his childhood friend. Sho could not have been more glad that he met Ohno. And he counted his lucky stars for being so persistent in gaining Ohno’s friendship back in the academy. Sho thought back on all the times they had together, duelling each other, practising the same moves over and over until Sho could barely move. And then practising some more before sleeping. Sho wished that he could go back to those peaceful days, ignorant of what was happening out in the world. Sho wondered about his friends in the academy. They are probably finishing up the last of their lessons now, and preparing to take part in the final test before graduation. He wondered what his friends thought about Ohno and himself. What did Johnny tell them? The duo had left in such a hurry that he didn’t get to explain to the rest of the classmates what was going on. Sho hoped that everyone was alright, that the Enlightened hasn’t troubled them. Sho pondered about his father, tears welling up his eyes as he remembered the hug his dad gave him before he left. He hoped his dad was alright. Going straight into the dragon’s den, to the Capital… Sho was afraid and confused… His thoughts scattered and mind unsure…
The night was nearly over by the time Sho finally fell asleep in exhaustion.
