James' POV
I could not believe how much Raven changed physically. She became a lot more beautiful and taller. I tapped her nose lightly and said in a teasing voice,"I'm still taller than you." She shoved me and said,"Oh, shut up!!" We both laughed, not caring if anyone hear or saw us. She hugged me tightly. "Where have you been these past few years?" Raven said in a serious tone. "I could ask you the same thing!" I grinned. She fake pouted. "You first." I rolled my eyes and began. "After I left, I wanted to go to London but it was too far to walk in one day. So I made some stops in a few towns and learned some new skills over the years." "Really?" Raven said, eyes sparkling,"What are some skills that you learned?" I thought to myself. Quickly picking up a flower and some pieces of grass, I wove a ring and put it on Raven's index finger. "There you are, milady." She laughed and admired the ring. "Thank you, Sir James." I bowed on one knee. "What have you been doing for the past few years, Raven?" I saw her fidget a little and play with the ring absentmindedly. "I've been going from town to town like you." She said. It sounded like there was something else that she didn't add but I didn't push her into telling me.

Raven's POV
"What have you been doing for the past few years, Raven?" I fidgeted a little and played with the ring, not exactly looking at James. 'Should I tell him I'm a demon hunter? No, I shouldn't. I don't want him to be in danger again because of me.' "I've been going from town to town like you." James looked as if he didn't believe me, but he pretended to. "Why were you in the forest, James?" I said, worried. He gave me a small smile and said,"For certain reasons. Why were you in the forest?" "I went for a walk." He tilted his head a little to the left and gave me a weird look. "Do you live close by here?" I hesitated. "Sort of, currently. I'm staying with..." Then I felt like someone..no..something, was watching us. I gave a small signal to James, whose eyes widened in understanding. "So," I said loudly, slowly picking up a rock that was close by,"What other skills have you learned?" James did the same while talking loudly. "One other skill that comes in handy is..." He quickly spun around and threw his rock hard,"throwing rocks at the correct time." He was right. The rock hit whatever was watching us right in the head. We heard a sickening thunk, then saw blood splattered on the rock and ground. "Run!!" James screamed, grabbing my arm. "Wait!!" I shouted, twisting out of grip. The thing that James hit was walking slowly toward us. My eyes grew wide and I shrieked with surprise,"SEBASTIAN?! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
