                                                                            27









Seong Mina, followed by Linia and Yun Seong had left the city of Jirisan leaving back also the soprano-like moaning of pain by Hwang Sung Kyung after his treasure has been opened by Mina, no word about that has been mentioned after departure and also as Yun Seong as Linia hold their legs straight when they are near Mina avoiding to spread them more.
In change Yun Seong began to say funny jesting doing Mina and Linia laugh out of loud, during all the way till arrive the coast. No Nightmare's presence to find except all his trails he left, in each village they passed trough they heard the people speaking about the battle between Koreans and Japanese and that suddenly decided to stop war, and the assault of demoniac foes against them all. But none knows where they went, supposedly to China or to sea to Japan; by the way they are in hurry to get there.

Taking a stance inside an inn before take a ship under the night the three persons ate their dinner and kept a conversation. Next Mina ordered Yun Seong take a little training before sleep outside at yard and Linia saw them fight. It's like to see a harmonic dance when they do it.
Linia, do you want to take a round? – asked Mina.
Sure – Said Linia – wrapping her javelin. Holding both girls a rod battle. Both were flying like birds spinning their weapons around their silhouettes. Yun Seong though in these things when he figured at their waists. When the girls ended token a rest next Linia asked Yun Seong a play with her. Now both knows some of Linia's skills similar like any ninja fighter when she's unarmed but similar like Mina and even looks lighter.

They returned into a common room of the inn speaking about their skills and how amazing they are.
Yaaaawn… - Sleep falls for Mina, the Night is quiet even when the winter is forcing its last gray cloudy night, and in this one the sky was clear and the moon above light the sea. – I dunno what's about you, I'm going to sleep. – Mina marched to her room she shares with Linia, she and Yun Seong are totally alone the other hosts are sleeping already.
Hey, Linia - said Yun Seong.
Yes?
In Jirisan when we were parading in downtown, is true that you were plotting with Hwang to help his purpose to engage Mina?
Linia did the best for not gasp in front of Yun Seong, it's the first time the theme of "opening treasure is mentioned" now that Mina absented. She though in all this frame of their journey what could happen if the plan of Hwang would work with her that supposedly had to match with the boy in front of her. She couldn't avoid thinking it is hot, and so she feels tonight.
Why do you ask that now? – She asked.
Hum..well, knowing Mina's reaction after Hwang's confession, I though what  would be your interest for join them. I though maybe it's for what I told you about their old engagement arranged by her father, but well….
Hwang just insisted to me after to see I'm not his type I guess… - replied Linia tilting her face looking at him.
Do you mean Hwang just wanted to take a girl to date with? Hmn.. That's didn't look when we recently arrived home, remember? He was very affecting with Mina.
And next he ran to me. Yun Seong, what do you see in a woman when you want to date one?
Huh? Why do you ask that? – Blushed suddenly – I… I did never plan sort of that things, I've been ever worried just to be the best defender of my nation. Looking for that can bring me power for my target.
Did you never seen Mina like as for another thing, or another girl for dating, kissing or more.
WHAAAAAW!! (Linia, you're too direct) – Yun Seong turn as red as his hair. – Hum well, maybe one time somewhere but… nothing seriously. I've… I've been concerned just for my journey and my battles for… well you know…
Huum.. I see – Linia realized Yun Seong never been worried for get near some girl, she knew Mina also as Hwang had been his teachers and mentors. Yun Seong had ever felt special affection for Mina as a sister, friend and admired her as woman, she shown be able to defy the world to fight for she thinks it's correct. He though if were possible he could be in a special place in Mina's heart, he'd try to, but never could find the reason why Mina is ever insistent to avoid he meet his fate if he gets Soul Edge.  Now Linia in front of him could make he withdraw that possibility.
I… I see no other reason really for that you help Hwang to date Mina if you... – Yun Seong stopped sudden his words, he reached the point just expected by Linia. He turned his face to her after siding right to left and vice verse. – Do you… d-do ya.. Expect-t w-w-w-.. Date together?
Linia did not said anything, she advanced toward him in four feet not showing fear or shyness, it's not own in her, she's been too much time looking someone to date at least for a while; Linia is a romantic and dreamy girl. Detaining at Yun Seong's personal space she said.
Mina is the best friend I made ever in this journey; tell me, what the matter with her?
Yun Seong couldn't spell any word his sight looking downward and entirely his face in red, he tried to murmur something not comprehensible. He sighed admiring Linia's valor for situations under heat like this, maybe she's an expert, he though.
-M-Mina is too important for me, I though sometime if she feel smoothing special, but looks… I-I've been just like her younger brother. – Sudden Linia though in a question to hot more.
- You Seong, how old are you that you say you're younger – she asked while sliding down slowly her dress.
- GULP… I am 18, why….
- Do you know Yun Seong I'm 18 too?
Now the boy felt in the middle of a crossroad, he did meditated about what Kamikage told him  when they were in Greece, about note if a girl is been too much time beside one and be sure if another girl appears in his way. This is the situation. "If you are not decided between the girl who is been with you always and the girl you recent met, then throw the dice, wait they do the first step. Linia did it the first step, Mina seems indifferent if she went to sleep unworried to leave him alone with another girl, it means probably she, "as his elder sister" she support her best friend and disciple be together.
Linia discovered her upper part of her body nut Yun Seong hold looking to her eyes for not spin himself. Linia leant over Yun Seong's thorax while he hugs her body; it's just the lips contact. The warmth interchanged between their semi-naked bodies is enjoyable, sweet. They wanted to remain some seconds more before the first kiss…
Linia! Look I need you tell what sleeping dress do you want wea…
GASP!!! – also as Yun Seong and Linia over him gasped louder turning quick their faces to Seong Mina carrying two dresses. She paralyzed as soon she seen them both appoint to open intimate relation, but she put no face of reaction or mood of surprise, angry or sadness.
Linia raised out from Yun Seong and this one turned back standing apart from her, Mina returned where she came from back to dormitory. No word was said or pronounced in the rest of the night Linia was unable to enter the same bedroom with Mina. She passed the night in the common room even after Yun Seong went to his bedroom.

What did I do!! They weren't brothers-like, obviously not!! – Linia is shocked feeling she is the only guilty of all this mess -the thing is not condensed yet only, but they do, and I interposed between them. I'm such stupid; it happens to me by hot-bitch.
Linia though quickly, but no idea appeared from her mind.
I must fix this as soon as possible.

The next day the group left the inn to take a ship to go to Japan this time the relation is been silent and cold Mina directed no word if is not for something related with journey affair or about trails of Nightmare or Kai-Kai Veeloo. Not even Yun Seong dared to keep conversation with Linia to a possible irritation inside the group. Linia show a sight of sadness and repented, but the severity of Mina using indifference is been terrible, both Yun Seong and Linia begged for Mina screams and grunts of anger instead this "Law of Ice", which is the way of show when she is disliked with somebody.

The arrival to Japan was quiet, even by the tensed relation between Korea and Toyotomi's rule the perception of inhabitants is indifferent when they seen the Koreans arriving their coasts, the nation still have their loyalty divided, Japan still conserves the scent of the old "Sengoku"; the things are easy this way.
The group take a rest inside the forest o pass the night, Yun Seong went for wood for to make fire; alone Linia decided to open conversation after days and hours of no dialogue. Linia tried previously to talk with Seong Mina the next day in the morning after the possibly hot night when Linia and Yun Seong almost kissed. – Hum… Mina… I.. about what happened between Yun Seong and me… - Mina interrupted saying –It's okay, don't worry, I sorry for interrupt you two, had no idea you matching hot. I… I though… it's been just a Hwang's trick for he catch me, but I had to realize naturally. – Linia was blushing sticking her index fingers it selves – No – Linia said – I… I didn't want to steal Yun Seong if your relation with him is…
- It's okay, I said; I don't want to keep talking of this. Good Night.
Now Linia will try again.
- Mina, we have to talk –Mina lift straight her head showing her back to Linia, this time in the middle of the forest there is no room to close the door to avoid conversation request.
- If it's about something important not related with Yun…
- Unfortunately it is – cut Linia – I need to know what do you feel for Yun Seong, what's him for you?? – Mina closed her eyes, pressing her hands as punches.
- Told you I don't want to talk about that, this is uncomforted for me – no Mina turned red by blush, for hr is embarrassing to say she likes one of best students.
- Hmn… - Said Linia smiling – So you feel something more seriously than me for Yun Seong.
- Mina opened her eyes realizing Linia stands in front of her, she yelled by surprise and blushing, lifting her hands at her face.
- HYAAAWAWAWAWAAH!! (sigh) I.. well… ARE YOU GOING TO JUDGE ME!!
- I'm no one appropriate to judge you my friend. As both you were acting like brothers, anyone around would think so.  – She paused smiling highly -But you really love that innocent boy. Look last night at that inn, the situation you seen is been created only by me; I had to work too much to seduce him and get he grabb my hips, he's too shy (like you) but as you are the elder in the couple you must take the advantage on him or another dared girl like me will steal you away, right.
- A… are you s-serious? But… -Mina sat on a stone still covering her face – but what did Yun Seong said of me? What does he thinks of me? I think he's looking me like an elder sister… his strict teacher … erh…
- In that moment when we've been speaking about, he told me the same as you: he thinks you do not consider him as possible boyfriend, that someone like you would be searching for someone elder like Hang, hehehe – Linia was taking fun of this, of acting like cupid express.
- Oooh! C'mon! When I hit at his balls last time. – Sudden Linia graved her voice.
- Listen, I'm not looking for serious relationship (my stance in this time should be a good explanation) I was just looking someone fine to enjoy a while, so if you are interested he take you go ahead, I support you. But DO IT before your spring leaves you okay? – Mina spread wide her eyes amazed by Linia's conviction.
- O-okay… - she gulped –friends again?
- Friends again, yes.
Mina and Linia hug both sat on the same stone, the embrace token some minutes while also as Mina and Linia adapted to the new situation; it's clear, Linia won't interpose longer between Mina and Yun Seong. Both girls supported their heads one to the other's side while hug. They separated their faces till embracing as friends ever before.
- You know what? You are a kinky girl Linia.
- Hehehee.. well I think you're very shy as to be talking about these things in public, in my country we're not so much. Apart I've been too hot these last days; You can't gilt me Yun Seong has nice pectorals to see.
- It's true :9 – sometimes I feel nervous when he's too close to me, I feel better if I entrance a combat situation as training. And I insist you are too kinky Linia, now you're passing your leg over mine's.
- Sorry, don't think bad, it's I'm a bit emotional by reconciliation. Furthermore I've been trained for seduce anyone as fighting; I'm a kunoichi remember??...
- Uh yeah…
In that same moment the noises of pieces of wood falling in the ground takn te attention toward Yun Seong that was seeing them as surprised and as turning on to see both girls like recent kissing, even seeing Linia's leg on Mina's fauld.
- Eeek!! Yun Seong …
- Hum… baeh… Sorry, ignore me – the boy retreated to take more wood murmuring (- So the thing was not with me?! It's a yuri affair 0.0)
- Hey Yun Seong! – yelled Mina - don't go come, these wood is enough for tonight. She grabbed Yun Seong's shoulders being at his back, trying to surround his neck but many seconds passed before she realizes she turned cute with him acting seductive. (as if Linia passed some of her ) she blushed and immediately released him. –c-come let's make the fire before the night falls.
Eating some wild mushrooms and toads the laughs between them returned again, the Law of ice is over. During the tricks by Yun Seong and the conversations of the girls Linia got to say:
- It's too bored be a kunoichi if you have no one to seduce. – Mina saw to her a bit blushed; Linia just smiled.
