Third Person's POV

          Meanwhile in the Creatorian Kingdom, Kyoka is doing everything she can just to cover for her friend. She has always known that doing so would be hard to do as her parents instantly get overprotective of her.

She kept pacing around Momo's room, trying to come up with as many excuses as possible so that her best friend's parents won't find out too easily.

You gotta think, Kyoka!! You gotta make sure her parents won't find out or else you're doomed!!! It has been Yaomomo's dream to travel and it hasn't even been a day yet.

A knock was soon heard and Jiro asks through the door, "Yes?"

"Is Princess Momo in there? She needs to have her breakfast." A maid told her from the other side of the door.

Jiro took a deep breath before she replied back to her, "Princess Momo already had breakfast. She went outside to the market to take a morning walk but she will be back soon."

"Oh I see, thank you!"

          Footsteps soon faded which gave Kyoka a sign of relief. She sighed, thankful that she got over that, but the one thing she is more concerned is how long can she keep this up.

Meanwhile...

          Yosetsu and Momo have been walking for such a long time by now. They have been passing by river streams and a few hill sides but still haven't quite reached to a certain spot for them to have a stop-over.

The princess was walking behind Awase since she wants him to lead the way and that she would follow.

"Hey Yosetsu."

"Yeah?"

"What do you like about travelling in the forest?" She asked.

"Hmmm...well I just like how it makes you feel productive. You get to visit lots of places and on top of that, learn new things by yourself." He answered.

"But isn't it lonely doing all of that? I mean I know you're used to it and all, but wouldn't that mean you have no one to talk to?"

Awase sighed, "That is true sometimes, especially when you're a thief, I can't trust a lot of people."

The princess gave the thief a warm smile and wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him from behind which made them both stop walking.

This caused him to be off guard and flustered, blushing like crazy by the sudden hug he's getting from the Princess of Creatorian.

"Ummmmm...what are you d-doing??" Yosetsu asked.

"Hugging you obviously! Since we're both together, you won't feel alone anymore." She giggled.

Yaoyorozu was just half an inch taller than him, but she hugged Awase as if he was the taller one among them.

"T-Thanks...Momo." Yosetsu shyly smiled.

"My pleasure!" She let go of him which made Yosetsu a bit sad, but then he started to sense something.

Yosetsu started to look around as he stick out his nose a bit and smell.

"Umm..what are you doing?" Yaoyorozu asked.

"I smell something.." He said.

Momo took a good sniff too and noticed it as well, "It smells like...smoke, but it's not coming from a burnt forest..more like...a village..?"

"Seems like it. The path we're taking has a village in this direction so that's possibly it. Great job princess!" Awase smiled.

Princess Momo smiled back, but couldn't help but suddenly feel proud, as if knowing he was impressed by her made her heart skip a beat in some way.

"Come on, let's go. Maybe there might be something you would like in that place." He spoke as they both walked going there.

          They followed the scent and soon arribed at a village where the market place was fairlt busy, people buying vegetable and fruits, meat or anything.

Momo was about to walk a bit further but Awase stopped her with his arm.

"Hold on, you gotta put on your hood." He said.

"Huh? Why?"

"Don't you remember? You're a princess. Almost everyone knows that the Creatorian princess is told to stay in within the kingdom and not outside. If these villagers found out about you're not in the kingdom, then they are sure to send a message to your parents." Yosetsu explained.

The princess realized and soon put her hood on.

"How about you though?" She asked.

"I just have a hat, but it'll work. Besides, between you and me, you're most likely to be shocking since I'm quite used to having people see my face." He replied.

After the two soon disguised themselves and made them less exposed, they both started to head inside the little village.

"Stay with me so that we won't be seperated and get ourselves lost." He whispered as he held her hand to make sure that they were together.

          Yaoyorozu knew the reason why she needed her hand to be held, but this made her feel more flustered just having his hand touch his. The feeling of it for her felt like she wanted this and even though she didn't expect it.

A small blush crept on to her face and a small smile was seen too.
