Chapter 9

It was late at night in the Sadida Kingdom, all but a handful of guards were asleep, well almost all....

Adami couldn't sleep. Though I should say he hadn't even been trying. He sat in a chair at Yugo's bedside, with a feeling inside that Oropo just might come, and try to harm Yugo. Although Amalia had offered to find him a room, he refused to leave Yugo's side. Adami was lost in thought, he had been for hours.

He thought about his past. Mostly about before he'd met Yugo. How lonely he was. He'd only ever trained with, and talked to Grougaloragan after he'd turned eight. Before that, Grougaloragan had played games with him, like hide and seek, or tag. After he turned eight, Adami had hung out with the animals of Oma. He remembered that at one point, he'd gotten into a fight with a Crakler, and gotten out of it unscathed. That as just a matter of weeks before Yugo and his friends had arrived.

"Ad?" Yugo's voice rang out, pulling Adami out of his thoughts

"Yeah Yugo?" Adami replied

Yugo sat up slightly "Why aren't you in bed? It's like what, two a.m?"

"Can't sleep." Adami said

"Sure." Yugo replied

"Fine. You caught me, I have a bad feeling that Oropo's going to come and try to hurt you."

"Aww you care about me." Yugo said chuckling slightly, though wincing in pain when he did "Still hurts."

"That's what you get for teasing me." Adami said patting Yugo's head. Yugo rolled his eyes. "Hey, you're the one who forgot to grow up."

"That's not true." Yugo said, causing Adami to raise a nonexistent eyebrow

"Really?" Adami asked sarcastically "So, you're not still the hight of a twelve year old?"

Yugo rolled his eyes "Hight doesn't matter Ad." Yugo said crossing his arms

"Sure it doesn't Yugo. Whatever you need to tell yourself." Adami joked

"Ad." Yugo said tiredly

"What?" Adami replied

"Go get some rest. I'll be fine." Yugo yawned

"Nope. I'm good." Adami yawned in return

"Adami." Yugo said, silently challenging Adami to a staring contest

Adami lost. "Fine. I'll go get some rest. You're lucky you're good at staring contests."

"Good night Ad."

"Good night Yugo."

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE?!?" Adami shouted after a Sadidan guard told him Yugo had disappeared without a trace
