I don't own the anime!
Shade P.O.V
"NOOOOO!" Fine screamed. I covered my ears. I won't be able to hear by the time we get out of there.
"Here are the rules. There are a total of 4 different paths. Each group will take one. If you take or enter someone else's path, you are disqualified. Here's the tricky part. You cannot scream. We can tell if you scream because it is loud. I guess you could yelp or make it quiet. Anyways, Whoever screams first, their team is disqualified." Auler explained. Thank you, Auler! Now my ears can live!
"Shade," Fine said, looking at me.
"Hm?" I reply, giving her my attention.
"Let's quit now. I can't make it." She said with a straight face. I had a shocked expression.
"She gave up too easily..." The 7 of us whispered to ourselves.
"Don't give up now, try and find out!" I say, grabbing her wrist and dragging her to one of the paths.
"Okay, I guess we'll start the test of courage! We wish everyone the best of luck!" Altezza said.
Bright P.O.V
We walked through our path. I heard a tiny yelp beside me and saw Rein shivering.
"What's wrong?" I ask
"S-Something's, b-behind me..." She whispered. I looked behind her and saw 2 pairs of red glowing eyes. I could tell she was about to scream so I covered her mouth and hugged her, slowly dragging her away.
Rein P.O.V
Bright's embrace is warm. I don't want to ever let go...I felt myself being wrapped in warmth and I closed my eyes. My eyes shot open as I felt that warmth leave me. I looked around. Bright was nowhere to be seen. I was better at dealing with scary things than my sister, but I am still very afraid of them. Tears filled my eyes. Bright just wanted to get rid of me? Am I that annoying? I felt my knees go weak and I fell there, silently crying.
"Bright...Don't...leave me alone...please..." I cried silently, burying my head in my knees which were pulled up to my chest.
Bright P.O.V
I was suddenly pulled from Rein by something. I was blinded and dragged somewhere. It released me and I took the blindfold off. I looked around but didn't see anyone, but I was still on our path. I started walking. i couldn't shout or we'd lose. I knew this was probably part of the plan anyways. I started running. After 10 minutes, I heard crying. I walked a bit further and saw a ball with blue hair. Rein? I crouched down.
"Rein?" I asked. She opened her arms and wrapped them around my neck, hugging me tightly.
"Idiot! Why would you leave me like that?" She cried.
"Sorry. Something suddenly pulled me. I swear I was looking for you." I reply.
We tried walking again but her knees got weak so I ended up carrying her.
"Are you sure it's okay?" She asked as she hopped onto my back. I nod.
"You're light." I replied and started walking.
Shade P.O.V (At the beginning)
Rein and Bright already started theirs. Right now, me and Fine were starting to walk.
"Ah, wait!" Auler called. He dragged us back and tied our hands behind our back.
"Why?" We both asked
"Each team has an obstacle. This is yours." Auler said.
"What about Rein and Bright?" Fine asked. We froze as we saw an evil glint in his eye.
"Hehe. Don't worry about them, their obstacle is a bit worse than yours." He replied.
I feel bad for them...We, slowly heading in our path. Fine stuck right next to me as we walked. I sighed. She was never good with this stuff.
We saw a ghost ahead wearing a torn tattered dress. She had black hair cascading down her shoulders and reaching her knees. Her bangs covered her eyes and the ghost was a child. She was barefoot. She had a calm face but then it turned into an evil grin, and a large one too. I saw Fine sucking in breath, ready to scream. I couldn't use my hands. I did the only thing I thought of. I put my face right in front of hers quickly and whispered a fast,
"Sorry."
Before colliding my lips with hers. I saw her face glow red and her eyes wide. I broke apart afterwards and looked away, hiding my blush.
"S-Sorry. I couldn't use my hands so I did that instead." I said. I turned to look at her.
"I-It's okay...but, That was my f-first kiss..." She murmured
"Mine too..." I reply.
"L-Let's forget it ever happened?" She said as I nod. Then we started the walk again. She got scared many times, but I could tell she was trying to be strong by biting her lip and not screaming. We exit our path and strangely, we were the first out (Bright had to take time looking for Rein).
Soon, we saw Rein and Bright walk out...More like Bright walking out. Rein was asleep on his back. We all stood quietly, waiting for the others. They all came after 5 minutes.
We chatted the whole way back, Fine yelling at Auler. It was strange that Rein didn't wake up from this.
Fine P.O.V
I swear to get revenge on Auler even if it's the last thing I do!
After dinner, I got done first, and we were all walking back to our rooms.
"So, what happened during your test of courage?" Auler asked. My face heated up, so did Rein's, and Bright and Shade's cheeks were pink.
"N-Nothing. G-Good night!" We all said, scrambling to our rooms, before they could ask anymore.
I was in bed, lying awake. I felt my lips, remembering the 'kiss'. I smiled to myself before drifting to sleep.
Chapter 2 Complete! Thanks for reviewing! :3
