I am enjoying myself. Suddenly I hear a voice; it sends chills down my spine. It was really cold and scary. I could make anyone surrender. I wonder why I always had strange reactions to these the tones in which people try to make scare or scold. Inwardly I wanted to laugh like there is no tomorrow. I tried my best to control myself. But being me I couldn't do that, so as expected of myself I cracked up laughing. Imagine what the person who saw me would be thinking? I can't believe myself even in an unknown place I can manage to be myself. The same voice said something again but I couldn't understand since I was yet to calm down.
A few more minutes later, I was back to normal; I turned around to look at the source of the voice. As soon as I saw the face I mumbled "I didn't think we would be meeting each other this soon" My statement got me a raised eyebrow on his face. "Hey Rikou you were not supposed to listen that" I tried to remove his confusion.
He did reply me or so I think. Oh MY GOD he is speaking in Japanese and I don't even know A of Japanese. I can speak a few words but I don't have a clue about what they mean.
"Umm... Do you know English? Any English? Egio?" I hope I said the right world for English.
My question was answered in a weird way. He caught me by hand and I was being dragged to god knows where. I guess to the Nura clan's main house. I was going to be interrogated by my favourite characters, I hope, I seriously hope I do not faint out of disbelief.
He continued to speak something or the other wasting his breath. And I just stared at him with adoration. Soon I felt the change in density of air, therefore I belief it is time for us to land. As soon as we landed he turned his face towards me and made such a funny face making me crack up for the second time in less than an hour. He is a humorous person. Hopefully I will survive tonight. "Rikou, you are the first person on earth who could be so, so odd to make me laugh twice in an hour." I told him between bursts of laughter. I think he was uncomfortable around me but in current state I could not help him the least.
Yokai started to accumulate near the back garden or where ever we were. I could not understand weather they came here after hearing me or sensing Rikou's discomforts. Don't judge me on my knowledge about Yokai. I just thought they could feel the emotions he was feeling too. I don't understand I can feel his emotions; Sensing would be a better word to describe the unknown thing happening.
After I calmed down I just moved a bit away from him as I thought it might be comfortable I he is away from a person who reacts differently from others. I was usually excluded from all the stupid groups because of these extra ordinary reactions and even my way of thinking. Till date nobody has been able to understand me. I believe it would stay same here also.
Now there are a lot of things I don't understand. For example, I am thankful that they have plants near me. It just doesn't make sense. Angel your element, your power comes from nature. The better the environment around you the more comfortable you would feel. The more plants around you the more joyful you will be. Wow, it is just wow. I have no words to describe the feeling I feel.
Suddenly I felt my back hit a wall. I am brought back to earth. I am completely surrounded. No way to escape. Don't know what just happened? I moment ago I was standing; scared that there will be no tomorrow and the next moment I am completely wrapped in a warm embrace. And the most puzzling thing is I feel ...safe. It feels like I am on the top of the world, protected from all the living beings.
