Falk winced as he put the coffee down.
"Two hours ago. I...I haven't seen her in days. I thought she was home. I visited her before but she said she wanted to be alone. God see always did that. Even as a kid when she was sad. I would
Always give her time then talk to her when she could relax and figure out she couldn't solve her own problems. She...agh. That's where she said she was going to be. But...but when I got there this morning she was gone. She left this note." Falk said as he took a note out of his peacoat and handed it to Zane.
English
-
He took a sip of his coffee and placed it down on the counter, then took the note and began to read. "Damn girl is more hot headed then I was in my teens, and she's way older then I am!"
-
"She's torn from grief Zane. Cut her some slack." Falk told him in defence. The letter was brief. [i]Dad. I'm leaving. I won't sit around and wait for more bad things to happen. Don't try to find me. I want to do this on my own. I love you. -Anne[/i]
-
Zane sighed as he pinched his nose, and set the letter down. "Guess I can't be too pissed, I did the same when my family was killed. Let me guess, you want me to track her down?"
-
"We'll be tracking her down." Falk corrected.
-
"Huh, and will you be able to keep up? Last I saw you had a bad leg, and how exactly are we supposed to track her anyway?"
-
"Have you noticed the leg?" Falk asked Zane as he bent his left leg back and forth with ease.
-
"Huh, when the hell did that happen? You get a cleric or something to heal it?"
-
"Ya. His name was JT." Falk said gruffly as he sipped his coffee. He was still on edge, that much was clear.
-
"Old JT huh, now that's a surprise." He took another sip of his coffee then placed it back down. He rotated his shoulders, and a faint light enveloped him. When it fades he was dressed in his combat gear, his buster sword resting lightly on his back. "Alright, I'm ready to go. How are we tracking her?"
-
"We're guessing. We're tracking my daughter, Zane. She's smart. She would've known to take the less crowded streets outta town. What she doesn't know, is that I'm her father. And that's worth just as much as a lead." Falk drank the remainder of his cup and put it down. He seemed more relaxed but his eyes still showed signs of fatigue. "So. With that in mind. We're going to the Ko-Rudo mountains."
-
"The Ko-Rudo mountains, isn't that where The castle is? She wouldn't be so reckless as to attack him directly would she?"
-
"No...no I don't think so. But he still has large forces there, she could be on to something else." Falk told Zane as he put his mug down on the table and walked to the door. "With that, we should head out." He said to Zane.
-
He followed his friend, closing the door behind him. "So how are we getting there, car I take it?"
-
"What, you'd rather walk like we used to?" Falk asked Zane rather harshly. But the man was on edge, Zane knew that as the car outside his homes blinkers went off. It was a black 2017 Range Rover Evoque.
-
"Just making sure, I did just get my license after all." He places his blade in the back seat them hopped in the passenger side. "Fancy."
-
Falk entered shortly after. "Ya, I thought so." He said as he turned the car on. He immediately turned off of the path and into the road that went north. But Zane could tell that Falk was still tired.
-
"Look man, you gonna be alright to drive? I can take over if you need some sleep."
-
"NO!" Falk snapped. This definitely wasn't him. "I'll be fine, alright Zane?" He said calmly to his friend.
-
"Falk, I understand your worried but you need to calm the hell down. Pull the car over and switch with me."
-
Falk shook his head...but then switched to a nod. He pulled over and let out a breath. "....Fine. Okay. Let's switch." Falk finally said rationally as he got out of the drivers seat.
-
He switched seats with Falk and adjusted the seat, then resumed driving. "Try and get some rest, il wake you when we get there."
-
"Ya...ya I...will..." Falk said as he almost immediately drifted off.
-
He sighed and looked forward onto the road, continuing to drive. "Can't push yourself so hard...."
