“Of course he’s not!” she protested. “But he is my friend, and that’s why I want to find him. Aren’t you worried for your friends?” She knew she was being unreasonable, but she was too stubborn to back down. Her emotions at all that had happened were crashing down, and this was the only way she knew how to deal with them.
"I am!" She shouted back angrily. "I'm helping you look aren't I? I'm just not friends with someone who would leave their friends behind in a place like that!"
"Behind. In the mine." She said her words coming out as only growls. "Fred said he thought Kipp might leave with out him. And then Kipp didn't even try to help that big pink haired guy. He's a selfish monster who would give us all up if it meant he could get away safely." She snorted in frustration and anger speeding up her pace because she didn't want to talk to about it anymore.
“That’s not true! Kipp took Fred with him, didn’t he? And Take was letting us all escape. None of us would have been able to leave if we’d tried to go back at that time. Take probably would have punched Kipp if he’d tried to help, anyway.”
Chion responded before Ashira had finished. Growling loudly over her excuses. "He did! But if he's such a 'good guy' why would Fred doubt he was coming back? And that. Sure going back for Take right then wasn't possible I understand that. But he didn't seem all that upset about leaving him behind either!" Chion abruptly turned away from Ashira scowling as she stormed away from her heading to the river's edge.
She opened her mouth for another sharp retort, but Chion was gone. She cursed and went the opposite direction, anger making her reckless.
Fred looked up, fear chilling him. This was like a scene out of a horror movie, he could hear it coming, crashing through the shrubs. He felt around for a stick holding it out like a sword, it was a pathetic attempt to protect himself though.
(He should still have the sword Kipp gave him.)
“Chion?! Kipp wake up! Kipp I found Chion” Fred cried overjoyed
