Okay now as far as appearance goes. Akihiko is a basically white rabbit with purple eyes and a strip of grey/ purple that goes down his back. Which is kinda gonna resemble what his hair would be and what not. Umm yes there is such thing as a rabbit leash/harness because I have a rabbit and one for our rabbit when we take it out for a hop/stroll kind of a walk.
Upon waking up he opened his eyes he saw that everything was very tall and was more focused like he was looking through a magnify glass. Going to rub sleep from his eyes that were closed once again, it was furry and didn't feel at all like his hand but rather something furry, so opening them he saw that it was a rabbits paw.
You have got to be kidding me. He said to himself as he went to move but stepped on a piece of paper and went to moving off of it and seeing what it had said.
To this day you failed to believe in pure love,
So now it is what's needed to break the curse upon you.
Be forewarned for no one is able to understand you,
Yet you are able to understand all yet not respond back.
Great I'm stuck the very name my friends called me. Well guess I don't have to meet those deadlines anymore, but what am I going to do as a rabbit?? Akihiko pondered as his now super sensitive ears picked up his front door opening and said editor barging right in and yelling his name. "Oiii!!! Sensei where's that manuscript that was due 2 weeks ago!!" She yelled into the apartment waiting for some kind of a reply from her sensei. She thought it odd that by now he hadn't answered or made any noise to signify that he heard her.
All the while Akihiko jumped down from the bed rather clumsily and shook himself. Not used to being smaller and having rather good jumping legs and being a rabbit and not a human with long legs. This is going to be something that I'll have to get used to. Akihiko thought to himself as he made for the door and looked down from in between the railing.
Aikawa kept calling his name but of course he was nearby but merely couldn't answer in a language that she could understand. That's when Akihiko slowly made his way down the staircase. Finally arriving at the bottom with a slight thud as his nails scratched on the flooring it had caught the editors attention. "Ahh! Oh it's a cute little rabbit, I know sensei has a nickname but didn't think he'd take it so seriously." But if there's a rabbit here, then shouldn't he be around? She thought as she looked all around upstairs for said person but found the whole apartment empty and his cell phone was silent so she couldn't hear it.
"Well since I can't find sensei, its best if we find someone to take care of you. Knowing him if he has a pet rabbit it's be just as hard as trying to meet a deadline or even take care of himself. Maybe I can catch Misaki Takashi before he leaves for school and drop by here and check on you from time to time." Aikawa said as she got out her phone and dialed said persons number.
So grabbing the rabbit carefully she headed towards the kitchen, all the while not knowing that the rabbit she had under her arms at the moment was her sensei but in a cursed form at the moment as she waited for Misaki to pick up on the other end. Meanwhile on another part of Tokyo Misaki was just leaving for school when his phone went off and he answered it. "Hello Misaki speaking." As he heard a familiar voice that he hadn't heard in quite sometime.
"Misaki-kun I have a slight urgent favor to ask you, that's an issue to a much bigger problem. Can you meet me at Akihiko Usami's apartment before you head out to school? I know it's last minute but I'll bring you home something that you like as payment." She said on the line.
"Sure thing I can do that since I'm leaving early for school anyways. I'll take the next train and get off at the nearest station and walk the rest of the way. What is wrong with Usami-san?" He asked curiously as he made his way to the train station.
"Well there's a rabbit here but no sign of sensei. I have to get back to the office soon but I was going to come bug sensei about another deadline that he's late for. Anyways I was wondering if you could take care of it until we figure out where sensei went." She asked meekly as she looked about the kitchen.
"Sounds very troublesome, but sure thing I can watch the rabbit until you find out Usami-san's whereabouts are. I should be there in about 30 minutes Aikawa-san. I shall see you until then, my trains here and its going to get noisy if we continue talking." So exchanging good byes he hung up his phone and got on and made his way to the authors apartment.
Hmm Usami-san is missing again. . .I don't see why meeting a deadline is so complicated. I mean sure no one wants to do them but eventually they need to be done. Misaki pondered as the train was in motion and waited for the stop to get off and walk the rest of the way to the apartment.
"Well I'm glad Misaki is such a life saver, now best if we fed you so your not hungry. I can't imagine if sensei has been taking care of you or not but lets not risk it anyways." Aikawa said as she gently put the rabbit down and took out some lettuce and carrots and ran them in a strainer under the cold water.
I forgot I'm not human anymore, so I guess that means my diet will change as well. Hmm why does Misaki Takashi sound so familiar? Akihiko pondered as Aikawa had laid down a plate full of shredded carrot and broken up lettuce pieces for him.
It didn't take long before there was the doorbell ringing that signified that Misaki had arrived and Aikawa went to answer the door. "Ahh Misaki-kun glad you can come by, I just fed the rabbit so you'll just have to clean up after him if he goes to the bathroom or let him go outside. Well I best be going, if you need anything just call okay." Then with a wave to Misaki he was out the door and gone.
It ate huh, well glad I stopped by that pet store down the street and got a rabbit harness to fix the bathroom issue.. . .hmm maybe I can let it stay in the schools garden while I'm in class. I'll ask the gardener about it. Misaki thought. "Well now aren't you a cute rabbit, I can't see how Usami-san can't take care of you. However we have to get going, I have class soon so we best get a move on. Though its best if I take the long way to avoid as much noise and crowds for a small creature like you." Misaki said as he cleaned up Aikawa's mess in he kitchen.
This boy doesn't even know me and yet it seems he cares for my well being. Even if I am a rabbit. Akihiko thought as he watched the boy clean before taking a rabbit harness and leash.
Misaki got down and sat on his knees. "Now I know you won't like wearing this but I can't be carrying you all the way to school. Not only that but I don't think Usami-san would like rabbit droppings and what not scattered about his apartment now." Misaki said as he carefully and slowly put it on the rabbit so as not to frighten it.
Akihiko didn't seem to mind the harness, for he trusted the boy enough and let him put it on. It felt a little awkward but after sometime he was able to get used to it . So the two made for the door and would walk through the park that led to campus. At a certain point Akihiko lagged behind to do his business behind a bush before they continued onward.
"Better, now let's see if Taniza-sama our gardener will let you stay in the garden while I'm in my classes. They're not too long and I can come visit from time to time." Misaki said as they headed behind the school to where the garden was located at. Not being all that far from the campus fro the park they were currently walking through.
Okay so we have established that Akihiko is now a rabbit and that Misaki is going to take care of him. I haven't decided yet that in the future if Misaki should find the note that Akihiko read of have Aikawa find it. . .Hmm decisions decisions. Well hopefully this chapter will satisfy you all for a while. I have to work on several more new chapters and what not.
Thanks for the endless support all and as always READ % REVIEW!!!
