Ceres continued walking up the stairs as she felt Rika shift in her arms. He looked at her for while before quickly laying his hand on his face. He looked relieved to feel the bandage.

[color=f7976a]''awake''[/color] She said soft and kind ruffeling through his hair a bit with the hand that held his hand.

[color=7bcdc8]''"Thank you, miss and I am sorry for the trouble I caused. Is everyone ok?"[/color] Rika said and looked at her. She felt a bit unconfortable, she wasn't sure if she should tell him he almost killed Sekhemi. In the end she decided she didn't wanted to put more stress on the little fella and sighed cracking a small smile.

[color=f7976a]'' everyone is fine''[/color] She said following the headmaster into the great hall. There were a few students who had reached the floating island on their own. 

[color=f7976a]''grand''[/color] She said to Leval sitting besides him and the girl named Shela. A boy talked rater insulting to Shela, but Ceres was a bit to bizzy realizing what just happend to her. She had talked to humans- no humans as well for a matter of fact- and no one got hurt or burned. She felt confortable with the group she was sitting with. Something she hadn't felt for a long time. 

She looked down at the little boy in her arms who was clinging a bit to her, and she smiled.

'maybe this is how it feels to have a little brother' she tought as she ruffeld his hair again. He looked sad and on the edge of crying.

[color=f7976a]''smile''[/color] Ceres said to Rika as she herself cracked a small kind smile as well.
