The Radiance Of Love…..A story of Hikaru and Ma'nami
Chapter 1
It was a cold afternoon. The trees branches hung down with the white soft snow. The frozen ground lay inches bellow the thick blanket of snow. The once blue sky was now a gray white fog that hid what lay be on the small white forest. A sharp cold wind rushed by and nipped at the trees. Everything was still and quiet. Out in the distance a yellow blur was moving about. A young baby pikachu's little head pooped out of a hole in the snow covered ground. His blue eyes twinkling with excitement, his bright yellow ears twitching from side to side in amusement. He had never seen anything as wonderful as snow and couldn't wait to explore this new snow covered world. Skillfully, he jumped out of the hole and landed softly in the snow on his belly. The snow was an inch above him. The snow was cold and soft under him. His belly lay comfortablly on the blanket of snow left under him. His little eyes began to close and he drifted in to a slight sleep.
He woke up to a bucket of snow falling from a tree branch and landing on him. If anyone had walked by during the split second he was covered with snow you wouldn't have even realized anything was hidden under the snow. The gap were he was sleeping was now filled with snow, trapping him under it. For a moment he was awake, by when the snow had fallen entirely, the world went black and he fainted. Above were they baby pikachu lay unconscious, a small furry puffball quickly rushed to the now snow covered, hill-like, pikachu. She had heard the snow drop from a near by branch and the slight gasp when it landed and knew that something was wrong. She sniffed the snow and looked worriedly from side to side for anything out of the ordinary. Her dramatic, purple eyes then landed on the unnatural pile of snow under a tree. The tree's lowest branch was empty of snow, while the other branches were drooping with the heavy snow. Her eyes flashed from worried to fright. She was afraid she was to late, and that what lay under the snow had frozen to death. She scampered quickly to the unmoving pile and began to dig franticly. Before she knew it she had unburied the pikachu. The baby fur ball was in fact a baby Eevee, the same age as the baby pikachu who lay in the cold snow. The Eevee looked at him with her caring eyes and pressed her ear to his chest to hear his heart beat. To her astonishment she heard a quiet beat. Her eyes glowed with happiness and her nose twitched with glee. She hopped off into the forest and brought back a pile of long fern leaves crusted with snow. She lay the leaves gently on the snow and with her fluffy tail she brushed the snow off the leaves. She then rolled the pikachu with her nose out of the snow and on to the leaves. She then nudged her furry head upon his, he was so very cold. She rushed back into the forest and came back with more leaves and blanketed him with them. She began to brush the snow off of him with her tail. He was a ghostly pale but under his cold skin she could feel his heart beating. She looked up into the white sky and knew that she must be patient and wait for the stranger to awake. Her eyes glanced shyly back upon the pikachu and noticed he was stiring. Her heart lerched with pleasure, she knew he was going to be alright. His eyes slowly fluttered open and looked up at her. He looked confused, weak, and cold. "Who are you? What happened?" He managed to speak. "I am Ma'nami, and I found you unconscious buried under the cold bitter snow, and who might you be?" She said. He looked into her eyes and said " Hikaru. I am Hikaru." He looked at the sky and slowly turned his head to Ma'nami "Thank you, Ma'nami." Ma'nami smiled, he's so handsome and mysterious she thought. always looking into the sky with his blue eyes, as if he is thinking something. She cocked her head to the side "You are welcome." she said. He stared into her eyes, he was lost in her dramatic purple eyes, lost in her kindness, lost for words. He had never felt this way in his life and he was word strickened about it and couldn't help but notice how beautiful she was. Her brown fur blowng gently in the wind, her ears swaying with the wind, her small soft paws touching his arm lovingly, and her dark, dramatic, purple eyes staring into his soul. He had never seen her before and would never forget her, for she had taken his heart with out knowing it. She looked up from him and glanced nervously around "I must go." She said. "Will you be all right?" Hikaru looked up at her with sorrow, he didn't want her to leave his side but did not want to admit it. "Yes, I will be all right." He managed. She smiled at him, a warm smile that melted away the cold, she whispered farewell and bounded off in to the white forest. As if on cue Hikaru's mothers frantic head pooped out of the hole and urged him to come back in and sleep.
