Akira stoped and turned her head around the best she could to look upon them "it is just the light from the moon shinning off of them. I never heard of them shinning before though."
"It still looks amazing." he said, now sitting down and looking up at the sky, Motioning for akira to come and sit with him. {I cant help but think that this is too easy. Every time I meet someone something goes wrong, they get hurt in some way. I'm not gonna let it happen again, last time it almost got the person killed, and it gets worse every time.} he thought, reflecting on the past.
Akira turned and looked at him for a moment then slowly walked over towards him and sat down. As she did she looked up upon the moon.
"Its not sad, I dont know either and I have no clue who my parents were. Some old pendragon took me in in the swamps and taught me how to fight. Thats really all there is to tell about myself." he said, trying to mask the sadness in his voice with humor. He always did that, he never could let others see him sad, he didn't know why, he just couldn't.
"At least you had someone that raised you and taught you. Me I have always been alone until i joined this school." She then looked back up at the moon "But its strange no matter how many people i surround myself with i still feel alone."
"Well I'm here." he said, smiling at her. "Maybe you need someone who will care for you and just accept you for who you are and doesn't care where you are from or how you were raised."
Akira just mearly looked at him with somewhat of a blank stare. As she turned away she gave a light sigh "i guess you right."
"What's wrong, I heard you sigh. Do you think you wont ever be able to find someone who will do that?" he asked, turning his head to face her.
"Well....I don't really know" she said with her head still hanging down. "Maybe i'm just a little afraid to have people get to know me as well."
"Why is that akira? Did someone hurt you when you were young, so now you can't trust people?" he asked, now sitting in front of her and wondering how one pendragon could be this way.
Akira just shook her head "no, no it's not like that. It's just...." she paused for a moment thinking about how to explain what she meant. "It's just that i have never been around anyone very long and i'm afraid that if i try to get to know someone they may not like me."
"You never know unless you try. So one person doesn't like you, get to know others and you will make friends, you have one sitting here with you." he said, putting his hand on her shoulder and smiling at her.
Akira slowly looked up at him as he placed his hand on her shoulder and gave a tiny smile. "I guess your right," she said.
"I am right. I am your friend, and I always will be. Never forget that akira." he said, pulling her into a short hug, feeling comfortable around her.
"No problem, feel better?" he asked, standing up and offering her a hand up. {So far so good, nothing bad or embarrassing yet.}
Lukhan helped her up letting go of her hand. "Um i don't remember this place in the courtyard. I think we wandered a little far." He said, scratching the back of his head and smiling.
