[color=8882be][i]"Nothing good will come of what she plans, nor what she does now,"[/i][/color] thought Valerian. [color=8882be][i]"But she can't change that, given the situation. This is the best way she can help them."[/i][/color]

Valerian couldn't help but think something was going to go terribly wrong. He wanted to brush that thought aside but couldn't, actually feeling worry for Aya. She had tried to be there for him - this was the little he could do to help her. Yet he had walked so far away it might be impossible to locate her again.

Valerian headed back to the place the orphans were staying. He didn't know why but something made him want talk her out of whatever she was planning. Something primal inside of him - an instinct.
