Moon lept from her arms to land on Leam's shoulder carefully, purring in amusement.
Leam passed him a carrot.
Moon ate ravenously.

Jess sighed and folded her arms across her chest, looking forwards through the canopy of her dark hair. Her fingers silently drummed against the opposite arm, her lips forming a hard line. Her grey eyes flashed to Leam in a mix of confusion and thoughtfullness, not feeling like hiding her emotions.

"What?" He asked in exasperation, leaning back a little. "You shouldn't have come after me, and Moon, like that. He's my responsibility. And...well..." He froze in midsentence, blushing. His ears turned red as tomatoes as he realized what he had been about to say. -- Moon hissed in astonishment, hiding a grin. He let out a soft growl, a bit of a laugh in his mind.

Jess' eyebrow raised slightly, noticing him blush. She tilted her head in confusion. "And?" She asked, brushing the hair behind her ear. She ignored the other comment, knowing that there was no force in that twilight realm that wouldve stopped her from helping Leam and Moon.

"Ne..nevermind." He said nervously, wringing his dirty hands. He looked down at his feet.

Jess stared at him a moment, then giggled slightly, skipping past him and tussling his hair with a hand. She slid silently into the shade from a nearby building, gazing up at the sky with a peaceful expression on her face, as if she hadnt seen Leam just fight down many people for his freedom. She smirked and looked over at Leam, her grey eyes narrowed with amusement. "You really are curious," She said, her voice almost like a cats purr.

Leam rested his head against the wall, turning it away from her. He just couldn't stand to hear her laugh. It reminded him too much of his sister. He sat down, his back to the wall, tears streaming down his face. He fought back all sound, not wanting Jess to know.
Moon cuddled against Leam, his fur pressed comfortingly against his side.

Jess flickered her eyes to him and frowned, tilting her head again. She went completely silent, taking a timid step towards him but not moving any closer. "Should I leave?" She asked softly, feeling as if she had done something to hurt or annoy or offend him.

"No, please don't." He whispered whiping his tears on his already dirty sleeve. He looked directly into her eyes. "I have to see her." He said, mainly to himself, closing his eyes.
Moon looked on, a troubled, puzzled look on his placid face.

Jess tilted her head and shuffled silently over to Leam, kneeling beside him with her head still tilted. "Who hun?" She asked softly, her gaze flickering to Moon for a moment.

"My sister." He whispered, desperation in his open eyes. He clung to Moon, hugging him tight to his chest, ignoring a squeek of protest from him.

Jess frowned. "Oh," She said softly, sitting down beside him and staring ahead. She didnt dare look at him, his desperation and sadness bothered her. "Whats stopping you from seeing her?"

"She lives in the sacred realms. I've only ever crossed realms once, and that was to get her. I don't know how to get back." He said calmly, but his heart was aching as he said it.

Jess stared at him finally, her eyes troubled. She flickered away all emotions and suddanly leapt up to her feet, holding out her hand to help him up. "Come on," She said blankly.

"Where are we going?" He asked, confused, as he wiped his hand on his pants before taking hers and letting himself be pulled up.
