(Hey guys. I know Chapter 1 was a bit short. I shall be trying to improve upon the length of further chapters. Also, I will no longer be explaining the looks of characters - As most people looking up White Knight Chronicles stories should know what they look like. The only time I will describe people is if they have a new outfit.)

The Great Balastor Plains

The two, Miyazaki and Leonard walked out of the gates of Balandor. Leonard then looked around, pointing in front of him. "The village of Parma is due south of here. Pretty simple." He explained, looking to Miyazaki. "Not much to it, but it's a nice enough place." The black haired boy, Miyazaki in understanding. "Bet you I can get there faster." He said, smirking. Leonard rolled his eyes in response. "Suuure." He said. "But anyway, be careful. We're not in Balandor anymore - Monsters are everywhere." Miyazaki took out a dagger. "Leave them to me." Miyazaki said. Leonard then unsheathed his short sword. "Really? A dagger is all you have?" He said in a joking manner. "Well, excuse me. I JUST started working here a week ago. I didn't have monsters back where I lived." Miyazaki responded, before walking off. Leonard followed along, reading his map to make sure they didn't get lost. "Be careful. Kibbles live around here." Leonard warned, being careful not to make too much sounds - So the Kibbles don't come in groups. "They're dangerous in groups. Easy when alone."

Miyzaki then looked over to Leonard. "Then we just beat them one at a time. What's the problem there?" He asked. Leonard shook his head. OBVIOUSLY Miyazaki was new at fighting monsters. Leonard then stopped walking. "There's a Kibble now." He said. In front of them was the said monster, making strange grunting sounds with a high-pitched voice. Miyazaki smiled. "Awww, cute." The Kibble then smacked the black haired male with a club. "OW!" He shouted before getting angry. He then thrusted the blade into the neck of the Kibble. Though, unlike a human, it wasn't done that easily. It continued to strike at Miyazaki until Leonard slashed at the Kibbles neck, slicing it off. Leonard closed one at at this, as he didn't enjoy hurting - Especially so brutally. He looked to Miyazaki. "You okay?" He asked. Miyazaki nodded. "Yeah, thanks." He responded, and the two continued to walk off to the village of Parma. After a twenty minute mark, they had reached their destination. The small village of Parma. Miyazaki liked this place - Seemed so...Cozy. "Nice place, huh?" Leonard asked. Miyazaki nodded as his answer.

"Hey.~ You're on time for once." A feminine voice spoke from behind the two. It was Yulie. Leonard and Miyazaki looked over to Yulie, and Miyazaki observed her. She was cute. "Yulie!" Leonard spoke. "Yulie's her name?" Miyazaki asked. Leonard nodded. Yulie walked over to the two. "Oh. You must be the new guy. Rapacci told me you were coming. Glad you could make it.~" Yulie said, smiling. Miyazaki nodded. "Nice to meet you. I'm Miyazaki." He introduced. "Yulie.~" She returned the introduction. "The wines all set to go." Yulie spoke, beginning to walk off. "Follow me." Miyazaki just stared at her, and soon began to follow with Leonard.

Leonard, Yulie and Miyazaki had soon enough walked over to the Beastwain, Leonard's eyes widening. "You must be kidding..." He said. Yulie giggled a little, smirking. "Don't let him fool you. He's a big ol' pussycat." She said. "Raus said he'd be here...Where is he?" She asked, looking around. Leonard raised an eyebrow, "Who?" "Your driver. Raus is the only one who can get this fella to pull the wain. It wont move a step. Not without Raus's say so." She explained, then began to walk off. "Sit tight. I'll see if I can find him." "But Yulie!" Leonard said, and soon began to follow her to help her explore. Miyazaki looked at the beastwain. "I guess it's just you and me." He said. "Actually, I should go look too. I'll check the shop." And with that, he walked off to head to the shop.
