Chapter 63 - The Tribal warfare

"H-Hey!" I said in between giggles. After a few more minutes Hikari finally stopped tickling me. "I am victorious!" He said with triumph. After that was a blur. Hikari, Kurai, and Yoru were talking while I slowly drifted off to sleep.

"It seems she's fallen asleep again." Kurai said. "Seems that way." Kurai added. "Mhm." I mumbled as I slowly caressed her right cheek with the palm of my hand. "I still can't believe you are willing to start a war on her behalf." Kage said as he walked in. "Mhm.... I know... I guess love's a really crazy thing." I said while gazing down at Hailey lovingly. "Ohhoho! So he finally admits!" Yoru said. "True that." Kurai joined in. "She puts too much faith in people, so much trust... So I need to protect her all the more, if not... Who will?" I asked myself more then the others. "That's very true, I don't know her as well as you three but within the short time she's been here, she has slowly changed your heart, Hikari as well as everyone else she meets. She truly is an angel in disguise." Kage said.

"Hehehe... You have no idea how accurate you actually are Kage..." Kurai said. "That's very true... She really has a uh... The grace of one too..." Yoru said. "T-Tooottaaaaalllyyyy!" Kurai added. "What do you mean by that?" I asked. "Uh..." Both Kurai and Yoru gave each other a side glance. "W-Well..." Kurai started. "Hailey can uh..." Yoru also started, trying to find the right words to describe what happened without snitching on Kurai. "You two I swear... Here, I'll show you what really happened." CG said. Cosmic Gem then proceeded to show me everything, through his perspective.

"KUUUUUURRRRRAAAAAAIIIIII!!!!" I bellowed in anger. "Hehehe... Y-yes...?" Kurai meekly answered. I then proceeded to scold Kurai. After that I explained how the meeting went to Kage, Yoru and Kurai. We went over the plan and began organising and gathering up the troupes we needed.
