Legend of Tai

Team Captain

It was another beautiful glowing morning, Tai got up from his bed only to find Qingyue staring at him by the side, making him feel quite confused, he knew she wasn't her normal self today, "what's wrong", asked Tai while having an uneasy feeling. Qingyue's cold gaze soften a little as she spoke in a slightly down tone, "you woke up a bit early today", said Qingyue as she faced her head downwards, Tai could feel that she was nervous, he tried his best to keep his head straight as he got off the bed, while making a good stretch."don't be like that you know, if there's anything you can just tell me".Qingyue slowly rose her head up as her eyes dimmed a little." you're leaving again".Tai suddenly stopped his advance of getting ready as he walked back to Qingyue's side,"you know I really have to,besides I have community service,okay Tell you what,I'll be free this afternoon,maybe we can go shopping,would you like that",Qingyue nodded her head slightly as she looked down to play with her fingers,making her look a little childish,Tai felt she was okay now and went back to getting ready,he changed into his usual Red robe as he made for the door,"Tai",Qingyue's low voice sounded as she walked towards him,he stopped in his tracks as he turned around to find her uncertain gaze,"Yes",he said,"Please promise me you won't leave me,you know,like master did",Tai's eyes suddenly went dim as he stroked her hair,"Qingyue, don't worry I promise to protect you just as master always wanted",he gave Qingyue a hug,letting her rest in his arms,she was actually crying,Tai had a look of guilt in his eyes,since he had not directly made the promise she asked for,he wasn't sure what the future holds,his only goal was that he would protect her with his life if he had to...

Tai walked towards the training ground looking a bit lost, "Hey why the long face", said Han Yue as she bumped her shoulder against his, he cleared his mind up while trying his very best to sound much more natural," nothing really, just thinking about something".Han Yue still glanced at him feeling quite suspicious, Teacher Ming had walked in, and everyone took her lectures, surprisingly, there was nobody training for today, so Tai, Han Yue, and Ban Shun were able to complete their community service quite early, Tai bid Ban Shun and Han Yue goodbye as he rushed for home, he didn't want to keep Qingyue waiting...Tai and Qingyue stood in front of a deep blue dress,which was finely designed with light blue patterns,a single flower stem extended from the neck row of the dress,reaching all the way below the armpit section,Tai paid a Thousand spirit stones to purchase the item,making Qingyue quite happy,Even though she didn't show it outwards much,not that she could since she wore a mask,the mask was shaped as if it was a swan,the right end of the mask had a variety of feathers,which was adorned with color of green,black,and a touch of pink,she didn't like wearing a mask,but she knew that only Tai could stay normal when seeing her face,she didn't want much attention since she wasn't even from the inner court,and she would not like to stir up trouble for Tai,they walked hand in hand together moving about in the inner court Market until it was dusk,they were both now standing on a bridge which was lit up with different kind of beautiful plants,the moon was hung full in the sky,illuminating the whole inner court with the stars shining upon it's glory,Tai looked at Qingyue,and on noticing her facial skin patterns he knew she was smiling,he couldn't help but feel warmth since It had been quite a long while since she ever smiled,he held her hand softly as they continued to watch the glowing fish move about in the water."Tai",Qingyue and Tai Turned around to see the unfamiliar face in front of them,she couldn't help but tighten her grip on Tai's Palm,Tai turned around to find Han Yue,wondering what she was doing here,Han Yue glanced at Tai's and Qingyue arms feeling quite complicated as she spoke out,"I've been looking all over for you,there's been an emergency,and all the selected participants for the upcoming tournament is expected to be present for an emergency meeting,Let's go,we can't be the last person's present,Tai looked exceptionally sorry at Qingyue since her promised outing had to end like this,Qingyue smiled as she nodded her head while letting go of Tai's hand,"go don't worry I'll be fine,said Qingyue as she urged him to quickly go,Tai smiled softly at her as he disappeared into the distance with Han Yue,she couldn't help but ask as she gazed at Tai's somewhat emotionless face,"who is she",Tai didn't think much before replying,"she's my Martial sister,we studied under the same master",Han Yue nodded her head,but didn't know why she felt relief from something like that,she shrugged off the feeling and continued racing straight for the huge palace In the distance.
