Chapter: Hesitation
The calming wind of the world drifted by as the controlled Dai-Gunzan was walking across the mountain lands. Dai-Gunzan battleship was obtained in the battle as Simon was able to control it before the final clash with Thymilph. The battle was won and just as they had won this major victory, they had a big party. Everybody seems to enjoy themselves but only two people seem to be not in the party at all. Kamina and Simon. Kamina was exhausted from the battle; he didn't seem to be dying at all. He just seems tired and needed some rest is all.
Simon on the other hand was in his new room, The room seem pretty spacy though, empty. Only having a bunk-bed with his Bro, as was Kamina slept like a log. Thanks to Kittan and a few others, they were able to move the sleeping Kamina from out of the outside, to here with Simon.
Simon looked down as he said to himself "Bro…." his eyes gazed as all the things that have transpired in just a few hours ago.
"I don't know what to do," He said softly to the Kamina, still asleep. "I feel like I was not able to do anything when you weren't there." He said to him as Kamina snores.
Simon's voice became softer "What happens if this happens again?" He asked Kamina knowing he won't get an answer from him. "I would not know what to do!" Simon looked at Kamina as he thinks about the times he was with him. Encouraging him and telling him not to give up.
"If you died I don't know what I would do, you're my only family."
"I want to become like you…but every time I do, I become…scared…I just don't know how to react when it comes to my life." Simon clenched his fist as he looked down. "I find a path, but the path is me just running. " Simon clenched harder as tears started forming up.
"Will I ever be as strong as you bro?" He asked the sleeping Kamina. He wiped the tears out of his face as he sighs and crawls into the bed.
'I'm talking to someone who is asleep. What should I except?' slowly his eyes go into sleep, as he went to sleep…
Kamina eyes opened from the long rest. He stretched his arms outward as he looked around the surroundings around him. He saw a metal dark room, as he realized he was elevated in the room. He looked down as he saw that he was in a bunk bed also saw Simon, sleeping softly as muttered in his sleep. Kamina touched his wound feeling not blood, but skin. 'Everything happened so fast.' Kamina thought to himself as he looked around his body seeing no scar. He felt a feeling of light-headedness as he groaned softly, as he felt the blood loss still on him.
"Seems like he was able to heal my skin but my not put my blood back." He said out loud as he cleaned out his ear with his pinky.
He turns and hears a door knock. "Who's there?" He asked as then door slowly opened. White boots with flames on the tip of the boots, long legs that were wrapped in a pink stocking. Her hips were wrapped in black leather bottoms that were showing her curvy hips and butt. She wore a black bra with red flames on it, her long red hair that was tied into a ponytail. She was holding what seems to be different assortment of food in a red tray. Kamina already knew who it was just by her long legs and butt.
"Yoko," He said as he sat up from his bed. Yoko held the stuff with a smile, "Kamina," Yoko placed the food on a table as he slowly got out of his bed and got down. Kamina hugged her tightly, Yoko doing the same. Slowly they pull away as Yoko remembers that she was going to ask him something "Do you want to have some breakfast outside?" She asked smiling.
Kamina gave a nod and said "Yeah, I want to see our Dai-Gurren!" He thumbs up and gave his enthusiasm as usual; already gave the name to the former Dai-Gunzan. Yoko nodded as she grabbed the tray of food as they both walked out of the ship and towards the outside.
"Oh, wow" He said as he looks down at the ground, seeing Dai-Gurren walking at a quick pace "What got ourselves a Gunman!" He said excitedly to himself more than Yoko.
Yoko sat down again the Dai-Gurren as she asked "Can you sit down, Kamina?" Kamina turned and nodded as he sat next to Yoko. Yoko waves her hand at the food as Kamina heard his stomach growled. He chuckled a bit as he grabbed what seem to be a boar and bite off the meat.
"Kamina," She said softly to him as she turned to him. "I was worried about you," She said softly.
Kamina nods as he says to her "I know you do, but I'm al-" Kamina stopped as he remember the man in the suit. His confidence slowly went down as he turned to Yoko. "Did you hear him?" Kamina asked.
Yoko did not understand what he meant "What do you mean hear him?" she asked Kamina.
"The man, the man that was in the Gunman yesterday," Kamina stated.
She remember what happen just yesterday "Kamina" She said outloud, "That is all I could hear." Yoko said softly as she then asked her "What happen there?" She asked him.
Kamina looked left as he clenched his right fist "He saved my life…."
Yoko was confused "What do you mean, he saved your life."
Kamina puts his hands on his chest as he explained "A man, with a blue suit just gave me a proposition."
Kamina continued "That attack from that damn gorilla almost killed me, but that man…he just appeared out of nowhere. Giving me a second chance, I was about to give him a punch but…I don't think Simon would have been able to beat that stupid gorilla."
Yoko was confused, "Wait, you didn't want it in the first place?"
"I guess I was ready to accept death, It seem like the appropriate time…like it was time. It was not my story to finish…maybe." He started to hesitate a bit. "However," Kamina clenched his fist, "I'm not going to give up. Since I do have a beating heartbeat, I'll strive forward to go straight towards that damn Spiral King, with Team Gurren on my side, nothing is impossible." Kamina pointed upward showing his old self once again. "Just who the hell do you think I am?"
Yoko giggled "You idiot, though" She turns to him as she gave him a big slap on the face. Kamina, confused screams at her "Just what do you think you're doing?"
"That's for almost breaking your promise!" Yoko said to him.
"It's not like I wanted to get killed, don't start attacking me for no reason. You big-butt girl!" Kamina said, making Yoko furious!
"Oh really?" Yoko said as she grabbed her sniper rifle, "Than this time I'll make sure you die now!"
Kamina started running as he getting shoot down like an animal by Yoko…
The Sun creeps around the skies as the desert is swept with enormous heat. Sweat drips around the forehead of the man with the suit. His jacket and shirt wear off his body and on his head, covering it from the scorched heat. His breath as quickened as he started to become exhausted. He opened up his contraption. Pressing a few buttons once again as he starts talking, "The heat as started to become terrible, I regret not obtaining a water bottle." He said to himself as he continues to walk into the desert…
(A/N): This was a fairly short chapter (least in my opinion.) Not much did happen, though I needed to publish this. I haven't updated my first chapter in months and this chapter has been sitting in my computer for a few months as well.
Unfortunately, I was unable to find someone to proofread this. Since I'm rushing this at the moment. I'm only proofread this a few times. Except to see more "faster" updates. Probably biweekly. (Fingers crossed)
Anyway, comments, criticism, or ideas will be appreciated. If anyone is willing to help me with the proofreading, PM me.
Anyway, I hope you all have a great day.
