Walking through the plains.

The blue haired girl introduced herself while giving Noir a warm smile, the black haired girl was pleased to meet someone that looked kind even though her face remained emotionless. Noir introduced herself as well, "I'm Noir... it's nice to meet you..." She looked at the creature again after averting her gaze the the female named Ani, Hoyo is the name... He looks cute...

The black haired girl quickly put down her basket and searched for something, her hand roughly dug inside the basket and when she felt something soft, she pulled her hand out while gripping to a something that looked like a cooked meat. "Can he... eat this...?"

Ani watched the girl listening to her as she said her name. "Noir what a pretty name." She said softly while continuing to look at her wondering what kind of person she was. She eyed the area around them for a small bit until she saw that Noir was digging around in her bag. Hearing the question she opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything Hoyo had dashed over to her, and took the meat from Noir's hands eating it happily. "Yes he can eat it." She said laughing a small bit as she pat her beast's head. "I am sorry about that, but he can't control himself around food when he gets hungry." She said while bowing her head softly. She glanced at the woman again while tilting her head. "So what brings you here?" She asked a bit curiously while looking into her golden eyes with her red ones.

The creature made a swift move to Noir and snatched the meat from her hand; the black haired girl noticed that this creature named Hoyo was possibly very hungry. As she looked at the girl casually petted her pet, Noir’s interest to have a pet raised up, but she didn’t know if she actually can raise one. Ani bowed to her to apologize for her pet’s sudden act and made Noir didn’t know what to do besides just giving her a slight nod but still in awe to the tamed creature. The black haired girl looked at the red eyed girl directly when Ani asked what brought Noir here, she instantly felt like seeing her own eyes when it turned into red colored orb and thought, So other people also has red eyes…

“I trained here before… what about you…? I assume you are an Imuchakk?” Noir asked curiously, she rarely seen an Imuchakk from up close and wondering if this girl was really a part of that race.

Ani slowly put a hand to her head pulling the shimmery blue hair away from her eyes, and to behind her ears. While she shifted softly she heard the girl's question. When she had heard the question she let out a small chuckle. "Yes I am an Imuchakk, isn't it obvious?" She asked flexing her arm a small bit her muscles that normally weren't noticed could now be seen. Putt her arm down she rested a hand on her hip while looking at Noir an amusing smile on her face as she did so. "I assume you are just a human though." She said thinking it was a bit obvious as she looked at her. She thought that she should inform the girl of the reason why she was here. "I myself am here because I am exploring trying to find something to interest me." She said giving another nod while smiling amusingly at Noir.

Never before Noir was so lost in exhaustion to the point she asked a weird question to a person who was obviously an Imuchakk, she mentally thanked her silvery haired mentor to grind her hard in the training and making her in the brink if unconsciousness. The rising sun didn't give any mercy to the tired girl and kept increasing the heat to the ground, the black haired girl began to sweat. As Ani said that she wanted to find something that can interest her, the girl stated, "City of Magnostadt..." and she collapsed on the ground after that, letting out an inaudible sound of snoring.

Ani felt the heat of the rising sun, but it did not bother her too much because the heat of where she lived was much more intense then the heat in these plains. Looking over at Noir she saw that she was sweating while mentioning something about Magnostadt. Ani took a step back when the girl passed out. Wondering what had caused this she check Noir's temperature by placing her hand on her forehead. Not being able to tell if it was either exhaustion, or heat she stood back up. She knew that she had to get Noir somewhere she would be able to rest. Picking her up bridal style she began to walk around looking for a place with Hoyo following behind them. After walking for a few minutes she found a tree with a great amount of shade. Hoyo curled ontop of a rock basking his body in the sun since that is what he preferred to do. Going over to the tree she laid Noir down, and sat next to her. Once she was relaxed she pulled Noir's head into her lap, and began to rub her head softly while humming an Imuchakk nursery rhyme.

The black haired girl grunted as she felt strange, her hand tried to find her wand that usually always near. But she couldn’t find it, she didn’t feel the usual sheet on the place where she laid down and stopped her hand when she felt something soft beside her. Noir grunted softly and opened her eyes, only to see the Imuchakk woman from before was lying beside her, possibly sleeping as she let out a soft snore. She confused, she didn’t know what to do and couldn’t even remember what had happened. The first thing she did was to find her wand and put it in a secure place, she turned her head to search for Nero and noticed it was very near to the Ani’s body. Noir carefully reaches her hand to take her wand, didn’t want to wake the girl up since she was sleeping so soundly.

Ani was resting peacefully her eyes closed, and her head leaning against the tree. She had a peaceful look with her mouth slightly open her pink lips glistening a bit as a small adorable snore rolled past her lips. As Noir moved she stirred lightly, and soon woke up in a dazed state. After looking around for a moment she looked down at Noir with a soft smile, and put her hand on Noir's cheek. "It's good to see that you are awake now I was a bit worried when you suddenly passed out on me." She said giggling softly while letting out a peaceful yawn. "So are you feeling better?" She asked tilting her head a bit.

Noir's body jolted lightly when the Imuchak lady cup her cheek, but the black haired girl didn't dare to move. She stared at Ani's ruby orbs and slowly pushed her hands away carefully, "Yes... I'm alright...I should thank you for that...and I apologize for giving you the trouble..." Noir hesitated to ask this before, but she made up her mind and asked, "Miss Ani... for how long I have been asleep?"
The reason why she hesitated was because she doesn't want to know if she was, in fact, might have been sleeping for several days and missed many of her academic activities at the Magnosdtadt Academy. She was worried and decided to call it a day to the kind Imuchakk lady, Noir stood up carefully and bowed down to Ani before gratefully saying thanks with her usual emotionless face. After that, she took her leave and amused by the event today, she met an Imuchakk lady! And she also get the chance to see such a cute beast like Hoyo. Maybe I should get a beast too...?

Ani was amused by how the Noir was acting as she woke up giving the feeling to Ani that she was quite the peculiar fellow. She was however interested in her thinking it would be fun to talk with her more one day in the future. As she heard her question Ani looked to the sun to try, and guess how much time had passed since the girl passed out. She determined it had only been around a hour, or a hour, and a half. "Around an hour you weren't out for that long." She said while nodding softly as if to confirm it herself. She waved goodbye to Noir as she left hoping to see her again someday soon.

As Ani stood there she began to think to herself did all she want to do is travel like this, or did she want to do something more adventurous. After thinking for a few minutes Ani decided that it was time for her to go somewhere fun, and somewhere different. She whistled to Hoyo, and began to walk off in the plains heading to the city of magnostadt planning on taking a boat to somewhere fun like Reim.
