After all this commotion we decide to find out what was really going on. I explain to him what had happened.
"Well first, I was with Ano-" I was cut off abruptly by Paul.
"You were with Anon and walked to school together. Then you beckoned him to join you- I mean Monika's literature club." I nod as a response still not grasping th fact that he probably knew everything. "Then after he comes over and meets Nat,Yuri, and Monika."
"Wait.. who's Nat?
"Natsuki's name shortened." Nat... Huh I like it. "Afterward that when you ended up in the real world?"
"Yup! thats what happened. After that everything else is sort of a blur. I just remember waking up in that forest." I shudder at this nightmarish memory "Then I walked out of the forest and got to the road where I met you..."
"Hmm.. Wait was there anything around you when you came?"
"Not that I know of. I was feeling way too cold to think much." I wasn't thinking much at all other than to keep on moving foward. "Hey ,Paul?"
"Hmmm? What is it Sayori?"
"Hey you think that we could go back there and search for clues?" Paul seems to think over it for a second and then looks at me.
"In this weather? I don't know if you have noticed Sayori it's like -10 degrees out there and the way you're dressed... I think you'll freeze to death." I look at myself. I am still in my school uniform. A grey blazer of a white-collared shirt with a brown sweater vest over it, topped with a red ribbon. My skirt was dark-blue and I had a white knee-socks and blue-tipped slippers. He is right in this clothing I would either freeze to death searching for clues or have to stay Paul's house while he does all the work.
"Well do you have a coat I can borrow or..?"
"Well, I do have a better idea..." I was curious of what idea he had in mind. "Sayori since you will be staying in this house we will need to shop for supplies." I knew where this was headed...
"So you suggest we go shopping? Can we start the search first?"
"Let's just get you some essentials. Coats, boots, gloves, and other necessities you many need." That sound like alot... "The quicker the better you are ill equip to go outside, let alone search for clues if your friends are here."
"Bu-"
"Remember what I said Sayori? No buts." I decided not to argue with him since I knew that there was no point in arguing with him. He is stubborn, but kinda c... Not the time to think these things. I clasp his hand and drag him along with me to the car. He drive us to a nearby town and stops at a clothing store called, "Maya". The amount of clothing they had there was astounding. Thing I have never seen before. There were hats, gloves, boots, coats, and other winter gear. T-shirts with colorful designs on them. It was wonderful to look at. I suppose never actually being to a store, being a game character and all, then suddenly being in one changes alot of things. I bolt down aisles picking out what I need: Pajamas, Winter gear, t-shirts, some pants, and other thing. I bring them over to the store clerk who comes up with the total of $112.21. I gasp at this amount. I try to place some items back I am immediatly stopped. Paul, who has been following me around, stops me and says.
"Stop,Sayori, I will pay for this."
"Wait-" But without hesitation he takes out cash and hands it over to the clerk. Then the items are put in a bag and given to me. Paul pats me on the head and says.
"Let me be selfish a little, OK?"
We carry out the clothing outside. We get into the car and start driving to where Paul had found me. During the ride I put on my boots, gloves, hat and coat. In just a few moments, we arrive. Suprisingly the tracks I had left behind were still there but barely visible. We follow these track all the way to where I supposely first entered this world. We examine around the area. There seems to be nothing.
"Well there seems to be nothing here you sure you didn't see anything Sayori?"
"Yes! I'm sure!" I wasn't really sure.
"Well this might have been pointless... Hey want to head back to town for lunch?" I let out a big sigh.
"Okay, fine..." He wasn't wrong there seemed like there wasn't anything really out here. Not a single soul, except us.
We got into the car and drove off. Out of the corner of my eyes I swear I saw something... Something smiling...
A/N: Man, two short chapters... I need to work on the chapters a little longer... I will be also starting a new series. I won't abandon this one although some feedback would be nice.
