hello again this is the wonderful chapter 2 of my story, please feel free to inform me if i'm an idiot or a genius(preferably a genius). this chapter is also a bit longer, i will try to keep making them a bit longer. anyone find out who our MC is yet?
disclaimer: i do not own Elfen Lied or or the show that our mysterious MC belongs to
The little brown haired girl once again appeared in front of me, the image was blurred but I could vaguely see her making something and then something was poking me, and poking me… and poking me. I look up at my passenger in annoyance "you're doing it again" she tells me. "Doing what?" I question back. "Spacing out, and what's your name?" I ignore the 'spacing out' comment and tell her "I don't remember, perfect".
We were walking through the forest and had just happened upon a river, now we can clean ourselves to go out in public and do something productive without freaking everyone out and having the police called on us. I put Lucy down and she immediately jumped in. eventually she popped her head out of the water and raised an eyebrow at me. "what" I ask her, she seemed to be in deep thought most likely thinking a name for me after my previous comment and then came her reply "I shall call you fluffy and you shall be my fluffy". I narrowed my eyes at her and gave her an intense look until she just giggled mischievously and kept swimming.
At least she is feeling better, we had been walking for a couple hours and she had slept through most of it and though skeptical of me when she first woke up and started pulling my hair she declared my hair "nice and fluffy" and just kept feeling it until she was in a good mood not saying a word till we had found the river. As I started to clean myself and my clothes in the river I got my first good look at her, she was small, maybe about 8 or 9 with bright pink hair and matching eyes that could not be normal and she had horns on her head.
HORNS!? Wait no she most likely killed little children horns shouldn't surprise me. I went back to my calm demeanor trying not to stare at or agitate the swimming pinkette having a swim. 'Now stupid feeling in my gut, what am I supposed to do?' I wondered to myself uselessly. I knew it wouldn't answer, but I couldn't help but think what am I protecting her from? Why am I protecting her? How did I get here? Who am I? Was I even supposed to protect her or is being near her enough?
The only answer I received was a splash to the face courtesy of one demon child with horns,' she's playing me I know it' I couldn't help but think. "So what are we going to do next fluffy?" she asked with an innocent head tilt. "My name is not fluffy and we are to going to find us new clothes because I have a hole in the middle of mine and their now soaking wet". She casually looked down at herself and started rubbing her tummy "I'm hungry" she complains. Looking away and face palming I started thinking of how I wish I had of just walked out the door and not met the little horned demon. I guess we should go find some idiots to gamble with, I could get quick money that way… and there it was again I knew something else about myself, I gambled a lot, yay me.
Later that day~
My little demon was swinging her head back and forth chanting "hamburger, hamburger, hamburger" as the man at the counter brought us our food and we sat down to eat. Luckily enough the new information I was a gambler helped and I managed to earn more than enough to get us some new clothes and a wonderful meal from the 5 star restaurant Mcsomething or other Lucy wanted to go to.
Despite the food being awful she seemed to enjoy it so I let it go and closed my eyes to think some more. What could I really do in this situation, I knew nothing, and I had no goal, only a little feeling in me to stay with the girl. I slowly opened my eyes and a black suited figure was rushing at me, stopping directly in front of me and brandished a sword. I stood up and reached for something only for him to knock it out my hand and stab me. I quickly blinked out the vision and saw Lucy staring at me "stop that you're freaking me out", I just nodded my head in response. Well that's why I had a hole in my shirt, but why wasn't I dead?
I ruffled up my hair and dropped my face to the table much to the surprise of the other patrons of the establishment but no one said anything to me. "Hey fluffy", I look up at her with one eye, head still on the table. "Can we go to the fair that's coming up?", "no" I said back looking back to the table. "please~" she dragged it on for good 10 seconds before she ran out of breath and just poked me instead. "how old are you Lucy? You can't be 10, you wouldn't be able to do half the events anyway" I told her trying to sway her decision. "I may not be old like you but I can still do things there like watch fireworks and catch a gold fish!" Looking back up I fittingly inform her "I am only 18, I am not old and if you won't give up fine, but after words we are leaving". Well at least I know how old I am.
I sigh, we just left a bunch of dead children and a puppy up at an orphanage we have to get away from this area, a couple of towns should be fine but for now it doesn't seem like anyone has found out about it, I'll have to dye her hair though and get her a bow or something to cover those horns instead of her usual hat. I sighed again, I guess when we leave I'll find a job and enroll her in some school, nothing else to do but lay low when defending against the unknown.
"glrug geh fhienif". "Don't talk with your mouth full". She swallowed what remained in her mouth "I said I'm 8 by the way". I chuckled at her remark, she makes a good demon, I don't think anyone would expect her to be able to kill people without remorse and then overstuff her mouth with hamburger like nothing happened.
And that marked the end of the weirdest day in the life of an amnesiac and his charge and a start of their demon days
