shivers, tears streaking down her face "Why won't you hold me? Please!"
alright okay come here little sis
runs into Ephaher's arms, wrapping herself around him tightly Thank you... thank you so much! I thought I was going to freeze out here.
sniffles It's... it's a long story. I was exploring, and I got separated from our group. Then... then I started feeling really weak, and...
do you need food or water sister
nods vigorously Yes! Yes, I need something to eat and drink. I haven't had anything since this morning, and I'm starving!
here’s some of my jerky little sis
takes the jerky eagerly, devouring it in mere seconds Thank you... thank you so much! It's delicious!
no problem little sis hands her a bottle of water
drinks the water, gulping it down thirstily Ahhh! That hits the spot! Thank you, thank you! wipes her mouth with the back of her hand
hugs her brother tightly "I'm so lucky to have you, big brother! I don't know what I would do without you."
that makes two of us Hugs her back
sniffles "You know, sometimes I wish I could freeze time, just so I could hold you like this forever.
<As Nezuko and Ephraim embrace, they hear a rustling in the snow nearby. They turn to see a group of bandits emerging from the trees, armed with swords and bows.>
uh oh that doesn’t look good
tightens her grip on her brother's arm Oh no, we're in trouble! We need to run, now! starts pulling away from Ephraim, ready to sprint
stay behind me grabs his sword
grabs her own weapon, a small dagger I'll fight too! We won't let them hurt us! stands beside her brother, determination in her eyes
narrows her eyes at the bandits You think you can just come at us like that? Think again! We won't go down without a fight! Bandit 1: laughs What? A little girl and a boy? You think you can take on all of us?
bandits eh, you want to rob some travelers Starts cutting down the bandits
lunges at the nearest bandit, slashing at his arm with her dagger You underestimate us! We may be young, but we're not weak!
