Alex stared at Eva, anticipating a answer though soon glanced to Urick as he managed to answer. Her blue eyes narrowed, studying him. Searching for any... Truth in Thane's words. She didn't want to... But he phrased her fears. Urick seemed okay now though, but it still made her wonder. Despite that she gave a bright smile before looking at Eva and watched as the summoner nodded and agreed with the condition. A smile on the Summoner's lips, yet something seemed... A little off about it and Alex couldn't quite place it.

Still, the red head lips upturned in a grin before promptly bending down on one knee. If she was doing this, she was doing it damn proper. Not releasing Eva's hands, the amazon's larger and rougher ones held them gently. Despite the uncontrollable power they held within them if she squeezed too hard. Always having to walk on eggshells.

[color=red]"Then... I, Alex, vow to protect you with my life. Through sickness and through health... Through flame, sea, thunder, and wind... Defend you from [i]any[/i] fiend that roam this land. As your Guardian. With everything in my power."[/color] Alex said in a serious tone before lightly kissing the back of her hands before standing up. Satisfied with her vow before humming a soft tune in her excitement. This felt... Oddly nostalgic. Such a weird feeling. Eva also made her feel.... Odd. Similar to Lady Yuna. Maybe it was just summoners who made her feel this unidentified feeling. She's only known one summoner which was Lady Yuna.

When Eva left to go help others, Alex watched before looking to Urick, snapping out her utter joy. Blue eyes looking at him, she thought for a moment. Right now, he didn't seem that different... But... He did change in a way. And with Naisha and Gippal... Perhaps they wouldn't be far behind. Which meant the end was soon. How terrifying. Perhaps.... This was their last adventure together. If that was the case, a part of her didn't want this new adventure they were about to embark on to end. Scary, how time seemed to move so fast. 

If the end was soon, then she supposed she needed to try and make the most of it. 

With a grin, the red head embraced Urick, wrapping her left arm around his waist while the right went around the rib while her right hand cupped the back of his head. Giving him a friendly embrace and ruffled the white hair. [color=red]"Hope your ready to deal with the firecracker of the group. Hope I don't drive you too crazy Uri!"[/color] she chuckled before letting him go before following after Eva.

Both eager to guard her, and help with the villagers as well.

[h2]~6 Hours Later~[/h2]

Alex spent her time around Eva and Urick, helping out people as best as she could. Which was carrying things, helping moving people, etc. Pretty much all the muscle work. When heading to the docks, the red head took a brief stop at her home. A old cave that Lady Yuna found during her sphere hunting days. Right beside the lake and hidden behind a old metal door now mostly covered in vines and leaves. The deep cave was her home. Filled with fiends. A reason why she insisted if anyone wanted to come in, she'd refuse them. The fiends oddly left her alone, but she was sure the instant anyone else came in, they'd be attacked. She didn't sleep too deep into the cave. She made a hammock between to rocks. Having a few blankets, and three chests. One for clothes/weapons/armor, another for food, and another for potions.

A lantern sat on top of one of the chests, just so she could have some light in the darkness. It was cold, dark, and filled with fiend's but it was a roof over her head. Plus, plenty of fiends to train on.

At the docks, she was about mauled by little girls again but this time Eva took the bullet. In which case Alex sat next to her and patted her back. [color=red]"You are a brave kind lady. But you look much better than I did."[/color] she stated in awe.
