JD muttered under his breath...

JD: You and me both...

Kurima bowed. She was even more relieved when she realized she could now spend her money on working on Gato.

Kurima: Thank you very much sir. All we need is a Gohma spawn's tail from the South Eastern Bowl area, and fresh water from the Kasuto Bayou.

Kurima didn't bother asking if Nova was okay with going to such dangerous places.

Kurima: There is a train station located nearby. With Glenn and Johnnathan, you can board the trains for free, since they know they work for us. I can't force you to leave right to go there now, since it's night time, but I hope you will go as soon as possible.

Nova nodded.

Nova: We should leave at the crack of dawn tomorrow. We'll want to get an early start on it, but no sense leaving tonight. That would be more likely to do harm than good.

A growling was heard in the room.

Nova: Erm...do you have anything to eat here?

Nalon: Alright alright. Since it looks like these two new guys ain't leavin', I'll just start up the stew again.

Nalon let out a very irritated sigh as she marched out the room.

Nalon: Might as well open up a resturant and inn while at this rate..

Kurima giggled.

Kurima: Don't mind her. She's one of the friendliest people around until the sun goes down.

Johnathan: "Considering the position of the sun, I would say that rest is most definitely our best option at this point. We cannot simply putter around without being at one-hundred percent, or our chances of helping Miss Hikari will be greatly jeopardized."

He stretched a little bit... He didn't need to sleep at this point, of course. He had slept enough already. Realizing this, he instead opted to make up for his ineptitude by sitting up and making sure Hikari didn't get any worse. Maybe then he'd feel a little better about not being able to be there.

Kurima: ... I'd really like to find out why it's so fascinating with people mentioning the position of the sun when it's already been down for a long time now.

Kurima had gotten a few stares. She then pushed her glasses upwards.

Kurima: Er.. Sorry. Long day.... Anyways..

Kurima started pushing JD and Nova out the door.

Kurima: You two keep the animals out there company while the food's getting made. *sighs* I'd really like to check up on Gato before reactive him..

Kurima turns her head and looks at Glenn and Johnnathan.

Kurima: Hey, could one of you keep an eye on Hikari for me?

Johnathan perked up. His voice attained a strange stutter that he hadn't previously enjoyed the luxury of having.

Johnathan: "Oh, I will! I... it is the least I can do... Glenn has his genetic condition to attribute, but I... I could have done a lot more to ensure her safety. I am, after all, here to help protect the ranch and serve the family... Please, allow me to sit up with her."

He bowed his head to Kurima, pleased that he had so conveniently gotten the opportunity to be of servitude again.

Kurima: Alright. There's no need to be so formal with me. You know how much I hate it. In that case, come, Glenn. Help me bring out Gato.

Kurima started to head downstairs.

Glenn: Hey! Don't pretend like you don't OT as well! And I've been working here way longer than you, for that matter.

Glenn, however, proceded to head downstairs to help Kurima as he was told to.

JD and Nova were pushed out the house by Nalon. Kurima walked by Nalon and looked at her.

Nalon: I jus' don't like it when people are 'round when I'm cookin'.

Kurima: *sighs* I know, I know.

--------------

A voice spoke up, very weakly, from behind Johnnathan.

Hikari: Johnny... is that you?

--------------

Meanwhile, Marin is still scratching Sabor.

Marin: Aren't you just the cutest thing?

Johnathan: "Ah, Miss Hikari?"

He leaned over her bed frantically. Was she ok?

"Are you all right? Do you need anything? Is there something wrong?"

Hikari's voice was very frail, and very low.

Hikari: Johnny... before you leave tomorrow... could you put up those wooden pegs..? The ones I once used to.. balance on... To train myself...

-----------------------

Kurima: Marin! Is this where you've been?

Marin: Ahh.. y-yes...

Kurima: And you haven't closed the gate?

Marin: Oh! I'm sorry, Auntie Kurima! I'll close it right now!

Kurima sighed as Marin bolted.

Kurima: I'm sorry about how things look right now. We normally have our stuff straight, especially at night. Come, Glenn, Gato should still be lying underneath all the hay inside the barn.

Johnathan frowned at the request, but he knew ultimately he couldn't refuse.

Johnathan: "Miss Hikari, please... You should not exert yourself in your condition. Promise me that you will stay in bed while we are gone...

Hikari: I... ain't promisin' nothin'. Johnny... You should've seen them...

Hikari stopped talked after she ran out of breath, and started after breathing loudly.

Hikari: I couldn't keep up..... And if I can't keep up.... I can't help look... after the ranch.

Johnathan: "I will not let you harm yourself like this! That would be a violation of MY job, never mind your own!"

He bit his lip as he spoke, knowing full well what would happen. She'd drag one of the pegs out there herself, and try to train no matter what he did.

"But... If you really want to, then is there anything I can do to convince you otherwise?"

Hikari closed her eyes, and gave out a weak smile.

Hikari: Make me as fast... and awesome as the.... legends say about my dad... and maybe I'll consider it..

Johnathan put his hand on her cheek as she faded into sleep.

Johnathan: "Only time can do that, Miss Hikari. You have plenty of it before you."

As soon as she was asleep, he rose from his chair, and went out to the toolshed where all of the shoeing equipment for the horses was kept. He opened the lock and pulled the shed door open wide. There was a series of collapsable poles that all had deep notches and marks in them, wrought from years of use.

He dragged them out of the shed, set them straight up and sticking out of the open horse pastures, and retreated back into the house. When Hikari awoke the next morning, she would find herself with all that she had requested and more. Knowing this, and saddened by the fact that he had done it, Johnathan returned to Hikari's room, and waited out the night.

((You guys went rather crazy last night))

Nova: I'm sorry about that. I guess my cat was just a bit of a distraction for her.

Sabor walked over to Nova, who scratched him behind the ears.

Nova: He's just such a cute bit thing. Also, what is this "Gato" anyway?

Kurima: Well.. as Hikari would put it: "He's a giant tin can with cat ears that needs ta be given a beatin'" I don't know what he is, really.

Kurima opened the barn door.

Kurima: It just looks like a large, rusty human-like thing. It's always been here, and we used to use it as something to protect the ranch. But, when Hikari was younger, she was determined to beat it so she can allowed to protect the ranch. And she eventually did..

Kurima smiled as she approached a large heap of hay laying in the corner of the barn. There seemed to be some signs of red metal underneath the hay.

Kurima: She was allowed to help protect the ranch, but at the same time, she had to start helping with the ranch. We used Gato to do some chores around the ranch, see.

Glenn: Basically, it's what some texts refer to as a "robot" or a "reploid"... Ancient technology from a more civilized age.
