Zan Fu held up Shu Rong in his arms and looked at him with sweat pouring down his forehead like a waterfall feeding into a river. Drodon was at the side attempting to do what he could in order to heal up Shu Rong.

It seemed that he was completely focused on his task at hand and didn't notice what Zan Fu was doing. He thought back to the word that the voice had spoken and took in a deep breath.

"I noticed that you've tried to heal up the child's wounds using the blue energy inside of your body, it was a good idea but you executed it improperly."

Zan Fu asked curiously if he knew what the strange power was and the voice responded by saying that it was a power unknown in this realm. He didn't explain what he meant by "this realm" but Zan Fu understood that he had only unlocked less than one percent of the energy's true capabilities.

"That power truly does actually have remarkable healing abilities, but it Hal's from the inside out and never from the outside in. You tried to have that friend of yours covered in the energy and he healed, but that won't work due to its strange requirements."

"If that is so the. What do I need to do in order to heal him? Share my blood or something?"

"Sharing your blood will work, but the will only last for a few seconds no matter how much blood you share and that isn't enough time to heal up that gaping hole in their side. No, the most easiest, quickest, and effective way of sending in your energy is through a touching of oral cavities."

This drew up a blank expression, although in the back of his mind Zan Fu knew what the voice meant. "Wait, what do you..."

"You need to kiss the unconscious and defenseless person laying there right besides you. Wow, that was a terrible way of describing it!"

Zan Fu plopped down onto the ground speechless at what he was hearing. He was suppose to kiss a man(?) in order to heal them? And not only that, he was about to use his first kiss!

In all of the time that he had been living, he had never kissed someone seriously before. At least not in the way that he was thinking of. His mind spun as the thought of doing this kept flowing through his head and a sense of fear flew into his heart.

His survival instincts almost took control of him as he was about to just run far away without looking back, but he stopped himself at the very last second. It wasn't like he wanted to do this, right? No, he had to do this in order to save someone's life, not because he was secretly wishing something like this would happen. He steeped his heart and prepared himself for the kiss, all the while assuring himself of his own likes.

Now Zan Fu was in a strange predicament as he was just cradling Shu Rong in his arms.

"What are you waiting for Zan Fu? Go do it."

"What if Drodon is completely capable of healing Shu Rong by himself?"

"What if by that time, it is already too late? The life of a human being is quite brittle you know. It's better to do this than to take the chance of having your dear friend die in your arms."

As much as he hated to admit it, the voice was right. Watching as his friend's life force slowly left her body was not at the top of his list of things to do before he died. Zan Fu rested his hand behind Shu Rong's head and felt her long, smooth hair wrap around his fingers.

Oh god, he was even starting to feel like a pervert doing this!

His face blazed scarlet as he lowered his trembling lips closer to Shu Rong's. He could feel his her warm breath and could smell his strong cologne. Her soft, red lips approached his own and just before they made contact a voice called out from behind him.

"Okay Zan Fu, I finished healing Shu Rong. They'll wake up in just a second."

Just as Drodon finished saying these words, Shu Rong's eyes snapped open and immediately set their sights on Zan Fu's own eyes. They stared deep into each other for a few seconds, with their trembling lashes barely touching.

If it wasn't to the position he was in, Zan Fu would've commented on how much it was tickling him. But he still had a decent sense of time, place, and occasion; so he held the remark back.

The words that left his mouth instead were, "You are going to hit me aren't you?"

Shu Rong nodded slowly without saying a word.

"And no matter what excuse I give, you won't believe me will you?"

She shook her head slowly while continuing to not say a thing.

"Your eyelashes are tickling mine." He didn't care any longer. And at that a powerful strike slammed into his throat while a mighty kicker forcefully sent him flying away.

Zan Fu crash and slid against the ground for a few second, causing his skin to be torn off, "Okay, I deserved that!"

It took him four hours and a LOT of gifts before he could calm Shu Rong's anger down and explain why he was doing what he did. Although she didn't completely believe him at first, a stab in the chest and a few seconds of regeneration was enough proof for Shu Rong.

Although he swore that the stab wasn't really meant as proof. Shu Rong and Zan Fu both collected all of the assaulters who survived and they decided to bring them back to the Zan Clan for interrogation.

Shu Rong noticed that other than the two people he took down, everyone else had disappeared. When she questioned Zan Fu about this, he just told him to not worry about it. Although she didn't know what really happened, he listened to Zan Fu and didn't worry about it.

They returned to the house and after reporting to Zan Rong and Mei Ling, they both returned to their speedster rooms. Zan Fu to his own bedroom and Shu Rong to her own guest room.

Once she had finally arrived, she ran up and jumped on top of the bed allowing it to bounce her around a few times. A silly smile formed on her face as she popped out the cellphone that she had recieved that afternoon and began to explore its uses.

Then a sudden thought occurred to her, she didn't know Zan Fu's number. This didn't really matter much but she felt like it would be better to have it in case of emergencies. Yeah, only in case of emergencies and nothing else. But as she began to think of a way to ask for his number, she started to grow embarrass. Not only that but the image of what she saw when her eyes opened a few hours ago was still fresh in her memories.

Her face was completely flushed red and she rolled around on her bed a few times until a knock on her door made her get herself together. She calmed down and went to open the door to find Zan Fu just standing there with the stupid smile he usually had on his face.

"Hey, sorry for disturbing you but I totally forgot something sort of important. I guess now that you have a phone, you should get my number as well." He said this so nonchalantly and in a way that made it seem as if this was a trivial thing. Maybe it was to someone like him, but to her it was something she had no experience with whatsoever.

"Sure." They both exchanged numbers and he quickly left her room soon after. The meeting was so sudden and abrupt that she didn't have much time to digest what just happened.

She went back to bed and just lied down looking at the shining screen of her phone. Suddenly, a small message box appeared out of the corner of the screen and a text message from Zan Fu appeared directly in front of her face.

"Good night" it just had this message simply typed in it along with a yellow smiling face next to the text. It was just two simple words, but for some reason these simple words brought a wide smile onto her face.

She didn't know why and felt a bit strange thanks to it, but the feeling wasn't really uncomfortable. In fact, it was quite the opposite. She felt very comfortable from it. Her eyes slowly closed as she drifted off to sleep grinning to the text.

Meanwhile at Shu Rong's uncle's house. The man was sitting in a reclining chair reading a book when he shot up onto his feet with a panicked expression.

He felt it, faintly but he was sure it was what he was thinking of.

"There is a disturbance in the force." A father (Or an uncle) knows when something is wrong with his daughter in the way of the heart.

"Which bastard is it!"
