Assimilation
Chapter 2:
KonKon
I was awakened by something soft, cold, and wet nosing my forehead. Slowly I opened my eyes and stretched, still too groggy to investigate what had awoken me. I froze when I felt the same thing touch my calf.
I looked down and saw… a fox? It was silver with black paws and white on the tips of its ears and tail. I was beyond extremely confused. How in the name of… did a fox get on the train? That's when I looked around.
I was on the ground. I was on the ground, in a forest. So much for those stellar observational skills my teachers told me I had. Only took me five minutes to figure out that I was in different place than when I went asleep.
For a second I wanted to panic. I mean, seriously, I had fallen asleep on a train and woken up in a forest. I don't know about you, but for me THAT'S EXTREMLY FREAKING WEIRD!!!
However, my logical, practical side took over quickly. It was like, so we're in some strange forest. Not much we can really do about it. So let's move on, shall we? This was completely true. Good thing I usually listen to my logical side.
I looked around the area I was in. I was on the edge of a small
Absently I stroked the fox's head. Instinctively, I knew it was a girl. Don't ask how I knew. It made a sort of coughing bark in the back of its throat. I looked down at her.
"What's your name sweetie?" I asked her. She made the same noise. I was reminded that back in Japan, they called a fox's bark "konkon". "How 'bout it? Can I call you Konkon?"
In response, the newly christened Konkon bumped her head on my hand. I smiled gently at her and stood. I checked what I had with me. I still had my duffel and book bag on me. I looked upwards, trying to catch a glimpse of any landmarks. Of course there was zero in sight. Sighing, I shook my head and began heading east. Why east? Why not?
After about an hour or so of heading east (more or less anyway), I came to what had to be the biggest tree just about ever. The roots were three times my height. Moreover, that was on the smaller end of the scale. I walked in under the base of the tree. It was dark brown, but oddly silky to my touch. It was tall enough that at my five feet two inches, I could stand up straight. Actualy, i could jump up and down and still have plenty of room above me.
I put my stuff down and got my blanket out. I was completely exhausted and I had no idea why. As I settled in, KonKon curled up by my stomach. Affectionately, I stroked her head before I fell into an exhausted sleep.
Author Note(s):
(1) Konkon will be quite important.
(2)As you can see, the chapter is, once again, quite short. Hopefully I can make them longer. My apologizes.
(3) Hopefully, you can see some of Angel's personality come out. Please, can I get some constructive criticism.
