, she thought.After their morning practice.
"Why don"t we eat breakfast together this time?" Feena invited.
"Sorry, we are going to visit someone right now," Mamoru answered.
"Maybe next time," Hideyos.h.i.+ smiled and wave them goodbye. They could only watch the back of the boys until they disappear.
"Eureka," Feena started looking at Eureka. "Aren"t you curious?"
"About what?"
"About what Kyro said last night. Raven being... you know" Karen said looking conflicted if she"s going to say the word or not.
"I"m not." Eureka flatly said. Cause she really isn"t interested, everyone has their own different pasts. If someone wants to say it, they"ll say it. If they don"t then they don"t.
"See I told you she wouldn"t be interested," Feena said to Karen.
"Why are you guys curious?" she asked looking at them. "Aren"t you all been friends for so long?"
"We are but it happened back when we were all 8. Feena and I are not yet with them during that time." Karen said looking to where the boys disappeared to.
Eureka shrugged it off, "Anyway I can"t come with you to breakfast as well, I"m already done before leaving the dorm awhile ago so I"ll be going already as well," the other two could only watch her as she walked away.
"She really isn"t interested in having friends don"t she?" Karen asked Feena dejectedly.
"I guess, her words last night is the same as saying, we are together right now because we have the same goals once it"s over then we disband," Feena answered as she leads Karen to the cafeteria.
"Is she not lonely? She only interacts with the headmaster most of the time. And here I thought that when we helped her with her wounds back on her trial we"ll gain another female friend," Karen couldn"t stop thinking to when they talked for a bit about Eureka"s past.
"But what she said is true, somehow if we were not short of people we wouldn"t have talked to her in the first place," Feena commented.
"That"s right, we only glance at her when she pa.s.ses by but we never really placed any importance to what she had been doing all this time. But I actually thought that the time we have been spending together would help develop a relations.h.i.+p between her and us." Karen continued lamenting as they take their food and look for a place to sit.
"I think she just chose not to try and get close to anyone"
"Do you think it is because she thinks of herself as an outsider?"
"I don"t know. Cause even in her eyes she never showed any emotions that implied whether she"s happy to be with us or not. Anyway, finish your food we still have a lot of things to do." Feena could only end their conversation there. If this goes on they might end up wanting to know her even more but may end up stepping into something they must not step into.

Meanwhile,
"Hiro, we"re almost there. We"re only a few steps away from becoming a knight."
Standing before a grave beside a falls, Hideyos.h.i.+ patted the stone grave.
"Do you think he"s happy for us?" he couldn"t help but ask the other two standing behind him.
"It was our dream from the get-go, so we could only live our lives living his share as well. We"ll become Knights he could be proud of." Mamoru answered looking at the grave.
"Hey Raven, what did you speak with Eureka after you left the party?" Hideyos.h.i.+ being as talkative as he is, asked Raven curiously.
Sitting down beside the grave Raven replied, "Nothing important."
"Are you sure? You know like what she means with what she said and stuffs like that. You didn"t talk about it?"
"It seems that she had a few memories of her past, and it seems that she was from a place where war is ongoing."
"That"s right, the headmaster told us that Eureka lost her memories 4 years ago but last night she said words like her experience from the past," Mamoru remembered that time where the headmaster told them how Eureka was allowed to enter the academy.
"Do you think she already did kill other people?" Hideyos.h.i.+ suddenly asked.
"Why don"t you go and ask her? Why ask us?" Raven replied as he stood up ready to leave.
"Hiro we"re leaving now. Watch over us okay? As we sweep the floor with your brother." Hideyos.h.i.+ jokingly said and Mamoru smacked his head.
"Nice way of putting your goodbyes."
*****
"You"re here," upon returning to the academy they went their own ways and Raven went to the physical training area.
"You"re done with your errands?" Eureka asked as she put back her sword in its sheath.
"Yeah, it was not something that would take us a lot of time." As he motions her to spar with him.
"The other two were curious to the words the guy from last night said. I wonder why they wouldn"t just ask you." She said as she unsheathes her sword once again.
"You"re not curious?"
"Why do you guys kept asking me if I am curious or not? Anyway, I am not. That"s your life, not mine, hearing about it won"t affect me at all." She just said.
"The guys are curious about your past though," he said as he blocks her attack. "But I suppose I have the answer already, no matter who asks about it you wouldn"t reply."
"Aren"t you curious?" Eureka asked copying the question given to her by Feena.
"The same answer as you, it wouldn"t affect me whether I found out or not so why bother?"
. She thought as they continue sparring with each other.
