A Friend in Need

i never told a lie, and that makes me a liar.

The early morning Sun shone thru the two big windows, behind Lyretich's bed waking up the young male for yet another day. As always getting up in the mornings was hard, as he dragged his still half-closed eyes and heavy body to the bathroom for a nice wake-up morning shower. After some good half an hour, Lyre was awake enough to get dressed, as he had no plans today to go down to the surface, he decided to wear some comfortable cloth, which consists off - a simple double-colored hoodie, black sweatpants, and sneakers seem good enough for a lazy day in, he looked into the mirror one last time, to fix his hair before he went out to the cafeteria for some early breakfast.

It was still very early, so the ship was very quiet and almost no one was out yet, except the always hard-working technical stuff, which Lyretich greeted on his way to his destination. After a hearty breakfast, the young boy had decided to head to the Arborium. It was one of Lyre's favorite places, the air was the freshest there, the view was a killed and the greenery was just so relaxing. The morning air felt fresh as Lyre eyed one of the benches before he sat down and closed his eyes, slowly breathing in and out while listening to the natural noises that we're surrendering the area while enjoying the sunlight tickling his still sleepy-looking face.

Hm? While Lyretich was enjoying the serene tranquility of the early morning, from the other side of the Arborium, little by little sounds started to come. They resembled such of someone watching an online video. Is someone already here? That's unexpected... The young boy's curiosity was piqued. He moved his still unawakened body from the bench that he had warmed with his lower half of the body for some time now, as he shivered slightly while meeting directly with yet chilly morning air.

He listened carefully, as he approached the ever-growing sounds little by little, as he reached the source of them. "Oh," Lyretich was surprised as it could have been heard in his voice. The source of the noise was a dark-skinned, largely build man. The young would describe the other party as someone who doesn't speak much, or at least he personally didn't have many opportunities to interact with the man, as every time he gave out quite the stiffening air around him, one of not really wanting to communicate.

"Good morning, you are Krishna, right?" he greeted the other guildmate, which was up quite early, compared to the rest of the people on the ship. Lyre approached the man with curiosity and mindfulness. "What are you watching? I could hear it at the other end of the Arborium, and it seemed like something I had heard too," he let out a small smile, while carefully studying the other party.

The answer that Lyretich had received was aggressive and had an undertone of disgust or something along those lines, well that was indeed something the friendly male did not expect. He had not really interacted with the man before, so he was not sure where did this sudden hostility come from, maybe he is still sleepy, that would explain why he was grumpy, or so Lyre decided to think, as he had met some other hard spoken people before, yet no one near this level of not wanting to speak, which did irk the young male, but he decided to ignore it and believe in his motto - don't judge a book by its cover.

Before he could even say anything the dark-skinned man named Krishna dashed away in the direction of a cry that resembled that of an animal or more precise one in a lot of pain. Eh, were there any animals or creatures that could cry like that in the Arboruim? Lyretich could not remember their guild leader ever mentioning that. Before actually settling on the Endeavor all Meliora Vitae members that decided to use the dorm option had to mandatory attend a kind of introductory course to the life and things that are actually on this enormous airship, and as far as the slander male could remember all creatures, except birds, and such that could actually fly up so high, were usually located on the third floor - the Rehabilitation & Research branch's headquarters.

Lyre decided to rash to the scene too, following the taller male behind. As they arrived at the scene, a small, cat-like creature was laying down under the bushes with a quite heavy injury on his body, the poor thing looked scared and ready to defend itself against anyone who was brave enough to come closer to him, indeed a cat-like behavior.

"I don't think we should approach it freely, I feel like we would make the situation only worse, maybe we should call someone from the medical bay on the third floor and let them bring it back themselves?" he expressed his point of view, with a tint of concern in his voice as he continues to observe the small creature while waiting for Krishna's answer, which he hoped the other male would give with a little bit less disgust as this wasn't really a situation for that and well the young boy did not exactly understand what did he do to deserve that, as being friendly was usually perceived positively.
