Chapter 5

3RD POV

On a sun-baked path, a carriage and two individuals on horseback escorting it trotted along. One was a mighty warrior, and the other-

"Ughhh- Why couldn't we just go to a Vault instead of an escort quest" Felicia complained loudly as she fanned her face using her hands. As the bright yellow sun shined it's deadly lasers at the group of Adventurers. "At least the Vault would be easier to be in...I'd rather fight Goblins and solve puzzles then be slowly roasted outside-" he groaned in pain and discomfort.

Garnet scoffed as she sat on top of her horse "Oh so you'd rather get blood all over your armor than do an easy mission like this? just do your job as a ranger and keep a look out okay?" The tall black woman also said as she wiped off the sweat on her forehead

A voice piped up inside the caravan, sounding smug "Yeaaaaah Felicia~ do your job~". The women who were out in the sun obviously got ticked off as they both yelled.

""SHUT UP ROXY!""

"YOUR JUST LUCKY THAT YOUR PALE ASS IS WEAK AGAINST THE SUN" Felicia yelled out with annoyance as the smug mage known as Roxy spoke out loud from the inside of the carriage

"You bet I am! and I'm loving it~ now do your job, Elf!"

The tips of her long ears twitched with anger as she muttered "bitch-" under her breath as she took her binoculars and started to look around for any suspicious activity.

Sweating bullets at the sheer heat of the sun, With a sigh she yelled out again for Roxy "Can't you uh- cast a wind or ice spell to cool us down!?"

"Sorry I didn't hear you! To busy enjoying the shade~"

"OH FUCK YO- nevermind then!" She growled as she rolled her eyes in annoyance. Wiping the sweat off her forehead and went back to doing her job

Her gaze swept along the clear green grass plains before it went along the outskirts of the forest. Nothing seemed to catch her attention... However until she saw two white spots in the corner of her eyes.

She snapped her attention back to the white spots and let out a noise of confusion as she zoomed in for a closer look. "Uhhh- guys?"

Garnet rolled her eyes as she turned her head to Felicia. "I swear if your going to complain again-" "No no it's something else...or someone else actually."

Roxy popped her head out from the back of the moving caravan with an oversized witch's hat. However should it really be called that? Since rather than a hat it is much closer to an umbrella with how wide the rim was.

"Bandits?" She guessed as her red eyes scanned the surroundings, and her sharp canines partially poking out from her lips.

"Worse...Kids" Felicia corrected as her eyes were fully trained on Alex and Alexa's sleeping figure. If it weren't for their clothes she would have expected them to be children of noble's from how beautiful their snow white hair. Their other features were hard to see from this distance however, but they seemed to be embracing eachothers body while sleeping.

"The fuck-" Garnet cursed with a confused

"No seriously, there's two kids sleeping under a tree, They seem to be siblings or twins since they look so alike" Felicia explained, a look on her expression said that she couldn't believe what she was seeing either.

"Why the hell are kids so far out from the city?" "Why are you asking me!? I just saw them-"

Roxy hearing their conversation, went to the driver of the merchant and asked them to stop for a few moments, explaining what they had just found. Thankfully, it was a nice old man, so they immediately stopped at the side of the path and ushered the group to go get the kids.

"Go then! get the kids and bring em here- I can wait a little longer to visit my grandchildren". The man said as he tipped his hat to the group of women and gave them the old rizz smile...sadly his age dampened the effects so it only caused Roxy to smile back and nod her head

"Of course sir, we'll be right back. It'll take an hour or so" Garnet estimated as she gave the man a polite bow as she made her horse turn and started to trot off, getting off of the path.

"Garneeeet why am I the one giving Roxy a ride-" Felicia once again complained as the mage, dressed in a hijab, a huge baggy cloak and an even bigger hat. Giggled at her annoyance, "Awww does the little elf not like vampires~ we've been a team for soooo long tho~" she cooed in an AraAra mommy voice.

"Please Garnet, let's switch-" Felicia pleaded with a dead expression on her face. Garnet ignored the two as they continued to trot over to the sleeping figures of Alex and Alexa...
