But seriously guys if you want a choice in who will end up being Kags lover…Here's your chance. There is only like 2 or 3 more chapters till I introduce some more IMPORTANT characters (Hint Hint). Well now that I got that out of my system….here is Chapter 5.

 

 

 

 

As the wind blew past me I couldn't help but shiver. Today is my first day working for Mr. Farrell, and I'm starting to get anxious. I remember what Sango had told me about him on our way home yesterday.

 

Apparently, he had grown up in Windford, but he had always had a weird fascination for Unusual and archaic items. So when he grew up he started his own shop with old artifacts and weapons.

 

He usually didn't find the weapons though. Sango had told me he usually, either hand makes them or gets them from one of his friends, who doesn't live in this town.

 

According to Sango, he had once had a Wife and a one year old son. But tragedy struck them when their son had gotten sick, and not long after being diagnosed he died. His wife was heart broken, but they coped. When they found out they were to have another child, they were ecstatic, but still upset over their loss, cause nobody could ever replace little Kyo.

 

But then one day, their home was raided, and the robbers wanted to take any object of value from their possession. When his wife wouldn't give up her wedding band, they had given her fatal wounds and left her there, after retrieving her Ring.

 

Later that night she died, along with his unborn child of 2 months.

 

By the end of that story I was almost in tears. I don't cry a lot for in the water, I could not. I always wondered what it was like to feel tears. But even though I could not cry tears, I could still feel immense sadness.

 

I shook my head, trying to get my thoughts to something a little happier; when I noticed I had arrived.

 

I had gotten directions from Sango so I wouldn't get lost, but time sure does pass quickly when you're deep in thought.

 

I Open the door and step inside. It's actually pretty amazing on the inside.

 

On one wall, there were swords hung up horizontally filling up the entire upper Left region of the wall. On the right region there is around ten beautifully hand crafted Bows, with a quiver of arrows to go with each. Each bow and quiver had its own unique design, making it more entrancing.

 

Then there is a Glass cabinet running along the bottom of the same wall, with what looked like highly polished Daggers neatly on display.

 

I looked to the wall opposite of it to see a Collection of very nice but very old artifacts, and I could tell these didn't sell for cheep.

 

I was just about to look around some more when a voice startled me out of my thoughts.

 

“Hello” he started, a little cheerfully.

 

“It's not every day that we get new people here in Windford, but I am happy you have decided to stay. Well come on, let me give you a tour of the place.” Seeing that I was listening he continued.

 

“This store is a Weapon and Antiques store, owned and started by my self. You will be expected to memorize and know the story behind each artifact in here. I will show you how everything is run here, and I will eventually teach you to make some of the weapons to sell for your own profit if you wish. I do not make everything, some are found, like the antiques and some of the older looking weapons, but most of the Bows were made by me.”

 

It made me very happy to hear this. While I was looking around before, I couldn't help but wish that I could craft something as captivating as the ones that hung on these walls. I quickly nod my head in acceptance. So he continued.

 

“You will gain 3 silver pieces for every hour of working here. And a bonus 5 copper coins if you do more then you are supposed to or you work excellently. Now with that out of the way let me show you around.”

 

Remind me to Ask Sango about the currency here. I'm so confused.

 

*~*~*~*~*

He showed me the weapons, told me which ones he had made, his friend made or which ones he found. On the other side he explained to me the story of each artifact, and went over them a couple of times, and then later quizzed me. When I got most of them down, it was around 3:30 in the afternoon, and I was pretty hungry. So we took a break and he took me to the back. Turns out the back has a couple of rooms, one is a kitchen where I found food. The other two were apparently storage and his room where he lived.

 

I was having so much fun, and for the first time in my life, I felt like this is where I belonged.

 

He didn't judge me. That is one reason I liked Myoga so much. The other was that he just had this personality that you couldn't help but like him. Soon it was time to head back home.

 

Home? I guess that's what I do call it. I mean as a mermaid I always had a home, but it never felt like one. Home isn't just a place you live, it's a place you love with the people who care about you. The people you care about. And in the Time spent In Sango's home, that's what it began to feel like.

 

 

A/N: SO what do you think? Getting better? Hope so. I know it was a short chapter but I'll update soon.
