Nessa transformed into her fox form and rushed away after baiting Akio with a race, and he chased her down.
They had a lot of fun racing back home, but while running through the forest's street, they noticed a carriage passing by and Nessa's eyes widened as she was about to run right into it, but Akio dashed towards her, grabbed her using his mouth and the carriage swayed as he dashed into the forest then placed her down while panting and they peeked at the carriage and saw it was fine then sighed in relief.
"We are saved," Akio said and Nessa looked at him and sighed.
"You helped me back there, thank you," She said and he looked at her.
"You are welcome, and I did say I would protect you no matter what, my lady," He replied, and she jumped onto his back while he looked at her.
"Are you giving up already?" He inquired, and she chuckled.
