KITT Still Rocks!
Lucia said, " No, Layna. That isn't the only reason I'm here. I was going to visit you anyway. I was just worried. Wilroc and I were talking and he said " oh, maybe you want to know Layna is leaving. " Then he left. That is not why I intended to come here. You are my friend; I wanted to see you. And give you this. Lucia pulled a small charm out of her vest pocket. " This is a good luck and safety charm handed down to me from many generations ago. I want you to have it. You can leave without telling me where you will go or why, but please accept it. No no, no arguing," Lucia said as she strung the charm on a leather cord. "It's yours now. May it protect you from harm." Lucia pressed the charm into Alayna's hand, then hugged her and said, " May God guide you, wherever you're going. Goodbye, my friend. Stay safe. And please write to me if you can. " Lucia stepped outside, waved goodbye to Layna one last time, then hid in the woods. She was going to shadow Alayna. Just to make sure she wasn't getting herself into danger.
