Today was a nice day in Windy Village. It was sunny and the temperature was around 80 F. There was not a cloud in sight, but there was some wind; though it was a nice breeze, which made the day even better. The trees were bright green, and shined when the sun hit them, while the cicadas buzzed around in this early morning.
Wora enjoyed being outside, very much. She enjoyed the scenery, and how beautiful it looked. Along the way, she waved hi to the neighbors that were on their porches, while she was going towards Beox's house. Along the way, Wora found a stick, and pretended it was a sword; fighting fake enemies along the way, while at the same time; making sure no one will see her, as she was scared of being judged by others for her behavior. Anyway, after a nice hike towards her friend's home, she finally made it to her destination. Beox and her parents were out on the porch, enjoying the weather.
"Good morning Mr. and Mrs. Talent!" Wora said with a smile.
"Good morning back to you!" said Mr. and Mrs. Talent.
"How have you been?" asked Mrs. Talent.
"I'm doing great! And before you ask, my uncle is doing great too! Sales for our shop going nicely, as well!"
"That's good to hear. Seems we are getting a church in this town, despite most of us being atheists or agnostics."
"Oh, that's cool, I guess. Not something I be interested in anyway."
"I'm the same way."
Beox decided to butt in, "Okay, enough of this talk, it's MY time to spend with her, and not yours!"
"Alright, alright. Off you go kiddos."
Beox got a hold of Wora's hand, and pulled her along to the backyard. "I can't wait to show you this new card game! It is from the game Final Journey IX!"
"Oh, that is cool! Can't wait to try it out!"
In a way, Beox is quite a spunky and pushy girl at times. She has bright blonde hair, and she prefers to wear pants a lot. She also has green eyes, so with her hair color; it is a rare combination to see. She is currently 2 feet and 10 inch for her height, she has quite a ways to go height wise; since she is only 8 years old, so there is still hope for her yet. Her current outfit that she has on is a pair of black jeans, and a green shirt with the word "AWESOME" on it. By the way, she did get some traits from her parents.
The blonde hair came from her father, also he has an average height for a man, coming around at 5 feet and 9 inches. He is a bit on the hairy side on his body as well. He has brown eyes, and he currently has a mustache; which looks quite weird on him, since it is blonde like his hair. He is eight years younger than Airwind, coming around the age of 42.
As for Beox's mom, she has the green eyes, that was passed down to her daughter. She is also around the same height as her husband, coming at 5 feet and 8 inches. She is also a little on the heavy side, but not really fat. She has brown hair that is a bit wavy; also she is younger than her husband, being at the age of 36. Both parents are good friends with Wora's uncle, as the three of them knew each other since when they were children.
Beox and Wora finally arrived at the backyard. Wora saw that Beox already set up the new card game on the table. It seemed much different compared to how the video game was, so there might be hope that it will be a better card game; and not as frustrating as it was when she played Final Journey IX. As at times when she played the video game, she lost unexpectedly; and her rare cards got taken away. She than tried to get it back... and lost again, never seeing her precious card again.
"This card game is quite an improvement compared to it when it was in Final Journey IX! The cards actually state what the different powers are for example, and it seems to be more balanced as well. There is no random blocks like in the original, which is okay; as it makes the board look smaller, and more challenging; but at the same time not as frustrating as it was before." said Beox.
"Yeah, knowing what attack and defense your cards have makes it much easier on what you have to do. So, I'm guessing the battles are similar like how it was in Final Journey IX?"
"Yes, it is. Each card has different arrows like up, down, left, right, and of course the corners as well."
"Ah, okay. Thanks for the refresher on the game! I see it has twelve spots now, so all the cards have to go on the board."
"Yup!" giggled Beox.
"Alright, let's start playing! Oh, but how do you know who goes first?"
"We roll this dice!"
"Okay! Hope I win!" smiled Wora.
"Nope, I will win!" laughed Beox.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When Wora and Beox were playing their card game, in another part of town; near the new building of the church, were two mysterious people.
"So, have you got the machine all up and ready?"
"Yes, it is currently in Air Woods."
"Do you think this help people convert to join our church?"
"Yes, as we will be the town's "saviors" protecting them from these creatures. For now, it will be a test run; as we still need to finish building our new church. Besides that we have to create a name for our new place of worship."
"How about Jackan Church like our Bishop's name?"
"Well, his name is Jackal, but Jackan makes it sound better. I think he will agree with that."
"As for the town graveyard?"
"We cannot make it ours yet, as we need to convince the people of this town first to change it; which of course requires us to have people join our religion."
"I gotcha. Well, I see you around. Oh, before I head out, when should we test the machine?"
"After 12:00 PM tomorrow. I call you later on the specifics."
"Alright, well I talk to you later."
"Same to you. Peace!"
"Peace!"
