"Could it be that they're not opening the door for us because those guys told the guard keepers about you fighting? What if they're people from the station waiting for us outside?" Moira asked Jacob concernedly.

Jacob looked at Moira's worried expression and replied with an explainable smile on his face, "Aren't you thinking too far? But…" An icy look crossed his eyes, and he continued after looking in the direction they came from, "I'm not sure if there is anyone from the station waiting outside, but inside…"

Jacob was cut off by a soft breeze blowing through the bamboo forest. The leaves flew to the ground, and at the same time, a shadow flew in with the wind.

Moira widened her eyes, and she almost let out a scream when she saw the translucent figure.

Keysha noticed Moira's actions and looked to where she was looking at. Although she was shocked at the unmoving figure within the trees, she held her daughter closer to her as a sign of protectiveness.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Her eyes were wide, and she asked in a high-pitched voice.

"Uh-hoh, don't be alarmed, pretty lady, I'm not a bad person." A flirtatious voice answered, followed by a tall man with bright eyes stepping two steps forward.














"Is there anything I can help you with?" Jacob asked pointedly.

"Yeah," the young man replied with a laugh, "My name's Flint, Flint Young, and I'm a security guard at Dixy Land."

Security guard? Moira and Keysha were skeptical.

"And?" Jacob raised one of his eyebrows.

Flint pointed at the fawn and said with a smile, "That's the property of Dixy Land, you can't take it away."

Jacob looked at the fawn beside him then at his daughter, who was visibly nervous after hearing that.

"I'll buy it." Jacob told Flint with a smile on his lips as well.

"It's not a matter of buying it or not. My supervisors have said that they can't allow you to take it away." Flint said with a shrug.
