Chapter 1

On your marks

The buttons on panel started bleeping red. A few jerks.

The only traveller inside understood there is something very wrong. Her hands promptly went through the keys, then punched on the dashboard, sign that she's hopeless.

She ran towards the emergency cabin, and pressed two buttons at once. Within a million fraction of second a message wave went through the outside universe.

A light, and stunning sound. It's burning now in the main control room. But she couldn't risk it to fall on ground and be traced. Even if burnt, there would be traces of unidentified metals, enough to raise concern of human down..

"Auto destruction activated as per your choice. The shuttle to leave base in five.. three.. one.."

With a flash, whole the saucer got covered with some glossy acidic material, destroying it completely..

When the ashes started to fall, she was safe inside the shuttle, going down slowly with the earth's gravitation..

"Five hundred thirty two."

uttering the last result, Kanata threw off the pen. Finished homework. What time it is? 8:30 already!

He stood up, headed to kitchen. Self coking. The thing he hates most, but have to do that tonight. His father is out of town; would return tomorrow.

In this large temple, he is alone today.

Silently having his diner, Kanata came out. This porch behind temple is his favourite place. Dad says, he never had had his meal if mom didn't bring him ear, back in younger days.

Mom's memories are always painful. Kanata looked above at the sky. He doesn't have any superstitions or belief in supernatural, but it seemed.. really too clear the sky. As if universe was waiting for something to happen..

What's that?

A meteor it seemed, coming down, then burnt to ashes in midway.

No, it's still coming down. Just in his direction.

Kanata ran towards the main gate. A minute passed. Two minutes. Did someone open a door? Or it's his imagination? For the first time, Kanata thought it's not always good to stay away from town without any neighbour.

No more sounds.

He went back to the porch. Nope. Nothing was there changed. No sign of any meteorite, No burns on ground anywhere. Then what was it?

"Whatever.." He shook his head confused, and headed to the door.

"Hey!"

Eh?

He looked back. What did he listen: Did someone call him?

Nobody is around. May be he heard it wrong.

He turned back, again.

"Hey! Boy. Hey!"

He jumped up, and looked everywhere again. Nobody?

He felt a chill through spine. For the first time, he feared. He feared very much on the encounter with this unexplained.

"WHO IS IT? TELL ME, WHO IS THAT?"

"Look down." the tinny voice said again. "On your left, near the bush. Look down. No, no, more down.."

At last Kanata found the 'thing'. Still it's unbelievable.

A seven inch tall, girl doll.

And it's looking at him.

It's alive.

Kanata did not know what to even feel !

"Hey. Take me up." the doll ordered.

With a bit hesitation, an amazed Kanata obeyed the doll and took her up with his left hand. Then he put her before his eyes. What thing is this? It's completely like a girl, age should not be more than 15, dressed up in a strange suit, on the right side of the pant there seems to be something is hidden..

"Excuse me, are you a pervert?"

"What?" a baffled Kanata replied.

"Look where you are holding."

Kanata realized. He is holding the doll where a fully grown woman would have her breasts ! Even the thought made Kanata blush a little.

"Sorry..." He released his grip.

"Would you be standing here? Do human don't have any courtesy to behave with guests?"

More amazed, Kanata entered in with the'doll' on his palm.

The night's going to be eventful.
