Second Chances Do Exist (Yugo X Reader)

On Your Own

Robber's P.O.V

"W-what?"

He wasn't sure if he heard her right. Did this girl just ask me if I was okay?  Does she have a problem with her head or something? Her reaction to him was quite different compared to the others. The entire party would tense up like the girl's cra companion was. But this teen in the hat seemed like as if she was carefree, not even eyeing his weapon. She just looked at the wannabe thief with curious eyes half hidden under her hat. He was about to take a step forward, but he didn't notice that his shoe was untied and ending up face planting onto the dirt road. Shitshitshit!

The teenager winced when his head fell face first onto the ground, getting dirt in his face. She moved herself off of her ride, careful to not fall off, while he got up and dusted the dirt off of him. The woman with the bow looked at her the entire time with a disbelief on her face. Y/n, don't be stupid, she thought silently as the younger one got closer. I have to have a talk with her later about this.

"W-what is she doing?" The thief asked the Cra, now feeling uneasy.

The silhouetted woman didn't answer, only watching the girm just to make sure she didn't get hurt. The girl stood next to him, side by side, and made what the man recognized as a fighting stance. What is she gonna do? The man has dealt some hardships recently, and was now forced to be catious with everyone he has never met. Then she did something even stranger, she gave him advice. "If you want people to give you stuff, you have to at least get your feet in the right position so if somebody tries to knock you down," she hooked his foot around his leg and easily knocked him down. He accidentally let go of his weapon as he fell onto his back, so the girl grabbed it in mid air , "you can move out of the way, and use it to your advantage."

She extended out her small hand, waiting for him to take it. He seemed unsure about what she doing, but she just offered him a patient smile, and waited for him to take it. She seems genuine, and it's been a while since someone was nice around here. When he took her hand, she pulled him up to his feet and waited for him to dust himself off. She advised, "And when you have a knife like this," he watched as the teenager gestered towards the blade, "you only hold two hands when your gonna do a move like this." She held it above her hat, like as if she were to do a final blow onto an enemy. "You hold it one handed so your moves are more fluid."

She handed him his knife back, but instead of using it on the younger female like the cra excepted, he just stood there, looking at it, deep in thought. I was doing it wrong for so long. All of those attempts at this, geez and to think nobody said anything until now. No wonder I didn't stand a chance against the last group. He had no idea why you were helping a criminal, nobody does that! For very good reason. While he was thinking hard about what his life had become, she mouthed to her friend 'This is going great.' In response she slapped her forehead and groaned. A thought This is going to be a while went through her head, dreading about dealing with this guy for probably the rest of the day.

"You look like your in bad shape. If you want, you can join me and Fionda for the night. You could have a warm meal, have a nice fire." The girl suggested.

He couldn't believe his ears. She was inviting a nobody, a robber, to join them for dinner. Why? Why is someone like her helping someone like him. This person was just a kid, and yet she was not only inviting him, she corrected what he did wrong with the heist, and gave him nothing but a warm smile. Yep, called it. Gods, she's just like her! As the two talked, the elf like woman was already regreting about coming along, she should've let Emele go instead of Fionda. She will admit, she was starting to get a little old to be on such a journey with someone as young as Y/n. Maybe Jorid would've been a better choice. He was a man of many talents and could keep up with her Lady's other children as well with ease.
