”Vera...” a voice called. ”Vera!” Vera slowly opened her eyes. Greeted by Norio, who was holding her in his arms. She lethargically lifted her head.

”Did I do it...?” She asked, looking around.

”Hah...?” Norio looked confused, as he helped her stand up.

”Where's Larkin...?” She asked.

”Maybe they left?” Norio suggested.

”But I...” Vera looked down. ”Never mind...” she whispered.

”C'mon, why don't we go home?” Norio said, smiling softly. Vera looked at him, then nodded. He placed his arm around her, as the two set off toward home.

As they got in the door, Emersyn was standing there with her arms folded.

”Hah, what is it?” Norio asked. Emersyn gave him an icy stare. Norio couldn't help but chuckle.

”You were gone for three hours!” She cried. Norio and Vera looked at each other.

”Eh, that long!?” Vera cried.

”What were ya doin' anyway?” Emersyn asked. Norio placed his hand on her head.

”None of your business.” He smiled, ruffling her hair. Emersyn pouted.

”Nori...?” Vera looked up at him.

”Yes?” He asked, as he was busy cooking dinner.

”I don't have my eyepatch anymore...” she whispered.

”Oh sh-” he quickly stopped himself. ”D-darn...” He corrected himself, as he turned the stove off.

”Keren won't be home until tomorrow, you can lay in our room for tonight if you'd like.”

”Really?” She beamed.

”Mm.” He said, placing the pot of pasta down on the table.

As Vera, and Emersyn climbed into bed, Norio shut the light.

”If you see anything, just try to close your eyes.” Norio said. Vera looked at him.

”Mm!” She nodded.

”Goodnight Nori.” She smiled, closing her eyes.
