Peya sighed. "I can't just stay here doing nothing," he said, his clenched teeth glinting in the moonlight. "If the most powerful person in Creepytown is the mayor, then I'm going after the mayor. I don't even know where Ori is right now-- probably still in the outskirts of town." His eyes met his sister's imploringly. "I just want to survive. If that means me against the world... I don't know. It's instinct. I'm not a hero kind of guy." He studied the ground.
"Yes, you are," said the voice of a young boy behind them. "I can't count how many times you've saved Zen and me during our travels." Peya turned to see Orion standing a few feet away, looking tired and gaunt. His nose was red as if he had been crying.
"Kid!" Peya couldn't hide his grin. "How'd you get in here?" He looked at him more closely. "Are you ok?"
"It's a long story." Ori shut his eyes and then opened them. "Who's this?"
"Oh, you haven't been introduced!" Again, Peya's smile widened. "This is my sister. Sage."
"I never knew you had a sister," said Orion shyly. Sage was beautiful; enough to put any boy-- except, apparently, the flirty Peya-- off balance. "How long have you been in Creepytown?" He addressed her.
