Just "gathering supplies", nothing more (Open)

(NOTE: This takes place after Zion leave's Kira's house on page
12 of Market Shuffle)
Zion idly pushed the brand new cart down the broad strets of
Dawn Rift's center square. Taking a deep breath, Zion exhaled
happily in the bright late afternoon air. There was nothing
quite like the mix of deep fried foods,fried foods, heavily
scented shops, vehicular exhaust, and just a hint of that
unmistakable twang of burning anwen from the more industrial
areas further out.
Yep, this was life. Unfortunately, Zion couldn't really enjoy it
because of the massive "I'M A BABYSITTER" mark tattooed on the
forehead. That and Zion was still having trouble finding some
of the things needed to make more VS orbs.
Zion's mind wandered while pushing the cart through downtown
when it landed on the kid that showed up before. What was his
name again? John? "Hmm, he says he's looking for information
huh?" Zion thought back to him unwrapping the bandages. If he
was looking for info, it was probably to tell someone. Zion
supposed that could be bad. "I wonder what he's up to." Zion
decided to stay out a bit longer and search for the kid. Maybe
he'd still be out. "Plus I suppose this would be kind of
considered hleping... well, two birds with one strike I guess."
Zion's own agenda of just finding the kid happened to cross with
being the guardian, so Zion set out to look for him, hoping he
wasn't in a seedier part of town. That cart was more expensive
than first thought.

John had just finished purchasing a sandwich from one of the
food carts and was stepping out into the street. Taking the
first bite he had a contemplative look on his face while he
strolled around. Occasionally his mind strayed to the
information he acquired earlier in the day but for the most part
he put it out of his mind.

Suddenly, the sun appears to set early as the light from the sky
around the boy seems to darken as if a shadow moves over it.
"That's a nice sandwhich ya got there. What's that, wheat
bread?" Zion's voice looms over the boy.

Startled he choked a piece of his sandwich and pounded on his
chest to dislodge the food. Once done he whirled around intent
on telling whoever it was to mind their own business but the
words died on his tongue when he saw who it was. "Oh hey its you
again! I see the guards managed to help settle things. Your
welcome." he said brightly and took another bite of his
sandwich.

Zion smiled and pushed a lose piece of cloth from the purple
headwrap currently being worn.
"I'm welcome, I wasn't really the one in trouble.... and neither
were you for that matter. Say, it's getting a bit dark. You
don't think it's a bit dangerous for you around here?" Zion
teased.

"Please I know this city like the back of my hand. I might look
young but I know how to survive." he said, rolling his eyes. "i
might not have been in trouble but folks like me don't stick
around when the knights show up." between bites of his food he
glanced up at the head wrap "So what's up with the new
headpiece. Trying to make a statement?"

"I see." Zion nodded at the boy's responce.
"Actually, yes." Zion peeled away a small piece of the headwrap.
If one looked, they would see what appeared to be fresh red and
badly burnt skin peaking out from under it. Zion wiped a bit of
fluid from under the cloth and rubbed it away on well worn
pants.
"it's that bandaids don't have to always look so hideous. They
could be an amazing fashion statement." Zion tightened the
headwrap back and paused.
"So, you got a minute, mind if I grab a snack as well?"

John wrinkled his nose when he pulled back the wrapping "Sure I
guess, not sure why you'd want to but hey I'm in a generous mood
today."

Zion smiled at the look on the boy's face. "Hey it's not THAT
bad, is it?" Zion went to a nearby food cart. "And besides, two
friends can't chit chat for a while?"
They both sat down at a table on a 2nd floor balcony overlooking
the street. The setting sun glinted off of the metal table and
guard rails on the balcony.
"Did you see what happened at the cerimony? Pretty crazy huh?"
Zion's head tilted in thought. "Hmm, what was your name again?
Sorry."

"Two friends eh? You don't even remember my name, its John.." he
stated as he sat down with a sigh. "Of course I did, you'd have
to be living under a rock to have missed that spectacle. Right
now no one is too worried, thinking they'll find the Protector
before anything too terrible starts to happen. But mark my words
things'll hit a bad turn really quick if none of the kingdoms
can make some answers appear."
