Shadow Of The End

Lyn frowned, but said nothing yet. She was curious, and wanted to ask, but somehow she felt this Gerudo woman didn't know, either.

Meanwhile, Shadow rolled his eyes, annoyed and irritated. And people called HIM a child...? Still, he almost reminded Shadow of... No, nevermind. Either way, there was no way he was that naive and that it was the only reason he chose this particular spot to "play his harp". He looked at him suspiciously, frowning. "Whatever you say," he said boredly with a shrug and a roll of his eyes as he turned around and began to walk back to camp. He knew he should probably go check up on Allard, anyways.

"...something on your mind?" Callio said, seeing her frown.

"Ah, ah, ah...wait a moment." Fluxum said, raising a finger at him.

Lyn shook her head, frowning. "No, nothing."

Sighing, Shadow stopped mid-step and looked over his shoulder at Fluxum, frowning.

(Hey Robot should we just skip ahead without Johnny? I'm kinda getting sick of waiting...)

"Should we go ask Uli about this, then?" Callio said. "If your not, I am. I wanna find out about this guy."

Fluxum sat his chin in his hands. "Whats a shadow being doing here?"

(Yeah...lets do that)

---

Sneeba suddenly stopped, and looked back at Konbei.

"You come, uh?" she questioned.

Lyn nodded in agreement, and walked back into the tent with Callio.

=

Still looking over his shoulder, Shadow gave a devilish, wide grin.

"Saving the goddamned day, that's what."

"Yeah," Konbei nodded without having to think twice and quickly caught up to the yeti.

In the tent, the Doctor and Rusl were absent, and Uli had been given some pillows so she could sit upright to help her get comfortable. Allard was sitting cross legged across from her, looking a bit better.

"Hmm...think your good at it?" Fluxum asked him.

---

Sneeba nodded at him, and led him back to the cave. She pointed at it.

"In." she said flatly.

Konbei ducked his head under the entrance of the cave and was pleased to see other humans inside. "Hey," he said with an air of casual confidence.

Without another word, Shadow had turned and walked back to the tent.

Lyn, upon noticing Rusl was gone, frowned as she looked around, trying to find where he went.

( AFK now. )

"Huh?" Aediox said, looking up from the fire. "Oh...someone new. And you are?"

Sneeba tumbled into the cave behind him, and shook herself clean of snow.

---

"Oh, its you." Allard said, looking up at her. "Hey, this is that girl I was telling you about."

Uli looked up at Lyn, and smiled weakly at her. "Ah...I was hoping you'd come by...I wanted to thank you."

"Hmm...kids these days." Fluxum said, and continued to play his harp.

(Wow...storm off)

"Konbei, who are you?" he said. He didn't go and sit by the fire like the others, he found it
to be more comfortae near the entrance of the cave.

"Aediox." he replied. "Hmmm...your from the Faita tribes, aren't you?"

Konbei paused a moment. "Yeah, how'd you know?"

"Complextion, hair colour, eye colour, nose shape, ear height. Genetics." Aediox said as if it were obvious.

"Huh. Are you some kind of specialist?" Konbei asked.

( o-o? Who stormed off? I just got back from going shopping with my mom... )

Lyn raised an eyebrow. "'That girl'?" she asked, slightly amused. "My name isn't that hard to remember, Allard," she added with a small smirk. Upon being addressed by Uli, she gave a small smile and nodded her way.

At that moment, Shadow returned back from the tent. He caught what Uli said about thanks, but said nothing, instead sitting back down near the side of the tent.

Seeing him come in, Lyn smirked slightly as she nodded to him, saying to Uli, "Thank Shadow, then, too. If not for him, we'd all be buried alive right now."

Shadow merely nodded once in return of the credit.

"Scientist." Aediox said, raising a finger.

---

((I meant Shadow))

Allard waved a hand at her. "Yeah, yeah, I know..."

Uli turned to him, and smiled. "Thank you too, then...I can't repay you both for this now, but...I hope one day I can."

"Yep. Just them. Not me. One who picked the locks in the first place. I'll just be here." Callio said flatly.

Uli rolled her eyes, and softened her expression a bit more. "...I suppose you pulled your weight as well, Callio."

"Yeah...and yours."

"What?"

"Nothing...."

( Ah. XD Nah, he's just impatient lol. Plus he thinks there are more important things to do than stand around watching him play. xP He's kinda blunt like that. )

Scowling, Lyn smacked Callio upside the head for his weight remark, as Shadow shook his head sadly in the corner.

"To hell with locks, I'd just blow 'em up," he said under his breath with a short, cynical laugh.

"Ow, bloody..." Callio said, rubbing the side of his face. Allard just laughed at his misfortune with the others.

"Ha...jackasses..."

"Is there something you needed?" Uli asked, rubbing her expanded stomach with one of her hands.

Lyn rolled her eyes at Callio, but turned to Uli with a serious face at her next question.

"Can you tell me about the man who came to you and gave you a bottle of liquid?"

Shadow glanced over at Allard once more. "So, was the doctor guy able to heal you up, or whatever?" he asked with a frown.

"Well...I'll probably out of action for a couple days, but yeah, I feel pretty good." Allard said, rolling his shoulders, resulting in a very loud cracking sound. "...ow."

"Oh...him." Uli said, freezing for a moment. "...what is there to say? He gave the me the flask, and left. I...couldn't really see his face, but his clothes were...odd, to say the least."

"So you're the one who's onto a cure?" Konbei said, optimism growing in his voice.

Lyn frowned. "Do you really think it was smart to take medicine from someone you didn't even know?" she asked- not rudely, but still with a hint that she was frustrated with Uli's decision.

Meanwhile, Shadow had sighed as he stood up, brushing off stray dirt from his tunic.

"In that case, guess I'll be leaving," he said simply with a shrug.

Lyn glanced at him in surprise, but said nothing/

"Huh? Why?" Allard asked.

"It wasn't medicine...it was just water. We were thirsty, so..." Uli said slowly. She sighed. "...my baby wasn't moving, and hadn't been for hours. I thought, maybe, if I had something to drink or eat..."

---

"Kinda. We're following up on the guy who found out something about the cure. Me? I got nothing." Aediox said.

Sneeba had wandered to the back of the cave, and was digging in a pile of snow.
