The restaurants had a classic Chinese style interior, as you enter the lobby you can see a huge imitation of a cherry tree in the middle of a man made swamp. The dim light accentuates the pink blossoms and makes you feel like in an ancient scenery you watch in movies. Barrett was amazed at how pretty it was.

The three of them were led to seats at the resting table prepared; it was late in the evening so the cold breeze that touches her face reminds of her childhood. The smell of pine trees was carried by the wind and the sounds of cicadas tickling her ears. “It’s too late, what the hell did Maynard do at the training ground at this time of hour?” Agatha complains, then they hear footsteps heading to them. “B-Barrett?

    The dense darkness settled outside the window, the tranquil light of the moon rose above her head and as the infrequent cry of the owl from the distance was heard she opened her eyes. Underneath the flickering light of the lamp the woman sits at the edge of the bed. With her barefoot she opens the door and leaves to the woods. Her long dark hair shines long under the moonlight, sparkling and waving, her skin so white like porcelain glows. The fairies who saw her arrival fly around her laughing and smiling as they play around her. The fairy dust gave light to guide her on her way deep into the forest. Under the full moon she holds the heart of magic, glowing under the evening light she prayed. The silver eyes that watched her from afar sparkled and teared. She smiled as if to console those lonely eyes.
