Guardian of the Dimensions
Chapter 3: The Machine Dragon
Hotaru fall down and hit the floor. She fell into a room.
'hum? Where is Ruka?' she thought as she stand up and brush her skirt.
"I'm here…" Ruka said. Hotaru's eyes widen (wow).
"I can't see you and why can you read my mind?" Hotaru said with monotone voice.
"I'm in you. Look, there's my body over there." Ruka said and he make Hotaru look to his unconscious body.
"How can this happened?" Hotaru murmured and walks to Ruka's body. "Can you get back to your own body?"
"I can't. What can we do now?"
"Who are you?" a girl voice ask Hotaru.
"I'm the Guardian of the Dimensions." Hotaru said. "Do you know anything about another soul that live in other's body?"
"Huh? Wow, so this guy's soul enter your body?" she said as she look at Ruka's body.
"Yeah."
"There's a soul that lives in my body as well. His name is Pete. Oh yeah. My name is Kazusa Sakurano. What's your name?" She said.
"Hotaru Imai. And this boy is Ruka Nogi." She said without looking at Kazusa.
"You sure is cold huh? Uh WHAT DID YOU SAY PETE?" Kazusa said as she grab a tomato and ate it. 'Weirdo' Hotaru and Ruka thought and Ruka sweatdrop.
"Do you know something to do to make his soul get out from my body?" Hotaru said.
"No I don't. But Pete will disappear after 100 days. He's already died." She said. Ruka and Hotaru just stand still and listen. "And tomorrow he'll disappear.. at the same time as my final ice-skating competition…"
'Whoa she can ice-skate?' Ruka said.
"Hmm.. This is going to be hard…" Hotaru mumbled really softly. "Do you know a sakura tree near here?" she said.
"Umm…. Maybe… near the lake. There're many of them. Just go straight over there and you'll see it." Kazusa said. "Well, I'll show you the way. Want to go now?"
"No. It's already late." She said.
"Imai-san, why don't you go home now if it's already late?" Kazusa ask her.
"I told you that I'm the Guardian of the Dimensions." Hotaru said and she explans to Kazusa about it and the Gate of Dimensions. As short as possible.
'Hey! We must find the way to get me out from you quickly. And then search for the gate. Can't we go now?' Ruka said.
"No. Wait until tomorrow. I'm sleepy and I want to eat crab brain." She said. 'Eeww..' Ruka thought.
"Imai-san, I think I must explain something about the soul of the boy inside you. If you want." Kazusa said.
"Okay."
"The boy will see what you see, eat what you eat, and feel what you feel. So, be careful when you eat or when you go to the bathroom." Kazusa said.
'NOO! I must eat crab brain now?!' Ruka said.
"Then how can I take a bath?" Hotaru ask her.
"Use this blindfold." She said. "I always use it. Oh, and Imai-san, is the Gate of Dimensions a sakura tree?"
"Maybe. What I know is when you sit under it you'll have soothing feelings." Hotaru said.
"Hmm. Then let's search for it together tomorrow after my competition ends."
"Okay. But tomorrow Pete will gone right?"
"Yeah. I want to go there to say goodbye to him too." She said with teary eyes.
"You love him huh?" Hotaru ask her.
'Wha--t?' Pete said and amazingly Hotaru and Ruka could hear it. He must be shouting so loudly. Kazusa just sit still, blushing madly. Hotaru smirked and Ruka smiled. Suddenly Hotaru and Ruka could see Pete.
"Is that Pete?" Ruka asked.
"Yeah. Huh? You can see him? Oh, and are you Ruka?" Kazusa said as she point at Ruka.
"So now I can see Pete and you can see Ruka." Hotaru said.
"Uh, I think so?" Kazusa said. "Imai-san? Can I call you Hotaru? It'll be much easier. And you. Can I call you Ruka?"
"Okay." Hotaru said. "Sure. And can we call you Kazusa and Pete?" Ruka asked.
"Of course." Kazusa said. "No prob." Pete said.
"It's already late. Let's sleep." Kazusa said.
"Where can I sleep?" Hotaru said.
"Oh, you could sleep on the bed. I'll sleep on the sofa."
"No. You need some rest. Tomorrow you'll have a competition." Ruka said.
"No it's alright. I prefer to sleep on the sofa anyway."
The next day..
"So today is you final right? Do your best." Ruka said as he and Hotaru walks with her to the ice ring.
"But today I wouldn't skate to win." Kazusa said.
"Why? There's prize money." Hotaru said and her eyes turn into dollar sign. Ruka, Kazusa, and Pete sweatdrop.
"I will skate with Pete for the last time. So I'll do my best for him." Kazusa said. Ruka and Pete look at her. Hotaru just look at the ice ring.
"Then let's do our best." Pete said and Kazusa nodded.
"Now from Japan, Kazusa Sakurano!"
"Let's go!" Kazusa said. Then she start to skate.
Hotaru tape her with a video camera that can capture spirit image. She saw Kazusa and Pete skating gracefully and happily on the ice. Ruka just smiled.
"Hotaru, will you sell this video?" Ruka suddenly speak.
"No. Today is they're last day together so I'll give this to her for free." Hotaru said and Ruka's smile become wider.
"But I didn't say I wouldn't sell this." Hotaru said and she take up her common video camera. Ruka sweatdrop.
Kazusa and Pete continue skating until the end. Their skating was very wonderful and all people who watch her clapped their hands. Then they walk to Hotaru and Ruka.
"It's over now… I'm happy that we can give our best shot in Pete's last day." Kazusa said and then she sit down on a chair. "And just a few hours left for us." she whispered to herself.
"Now for the runner up winner! Kazusa Sakurano!"
All the people who watch her performing groan loudly. "She must be the first winner! She skate amazingly!" most of the people shouted.
"Come on you two. We can go to the lake now." Kazusa said. There's no sad aura came out from her.
"Aren't you sad that you didn't win the first place?" Ruka asked her.
"I told you I didn't skate to win." Kazusa said and they go to a lake not so far from the ice-skating ring. Kazusa skate with Pete to the center of the lake and chat there for a while. Hotaru and Ruka walks around the lake under the sakura trees. Suddenly Hotaru fell down under a big sakura tree.
"Is this the gate?" Ruka asked.
"Maybe." Hotaru said and then the sakura tree starts to glow. Hotaru and Ruka Quickly stand up and look at the tree.
"This IS THE GATE!!" Ruka shout and suddenly his blue seal flies from his arm. His seal is a blue water drop with circle around it. Hotaru's seal flies from her forehead as well. Her seal is a violet screwdriver with circle around it. The seals became one. A raven Machine Dragon seal. Then Ruka's spirit came out from Hotaru's body and flies to the seals. He became a machine dragon and flies to the tree and hit the tree. Ruka then left unconscious under the sakura tree in his own body. Hotaru runs to him and she saw a raven machine dragon seal on the sakura tree.
"It's sealed." Hotaru said and she make Ruka sit and lay to the tree.
"Pete!" Suddenly she heard Kazusa's voice and turn around and see Pete's spirit flies out from Kazusa's body. Kazusa is crying. Then Hotaru just continue look at them. She can't do anything.
"Good bye Kazusa.." Pete disappear and Kazusa stand still there.
"Pete.." Kazusa said. Then she whisper, "I love you.."
"Whoaa!! Suddenly Pete fall down from the sky and he landed next to Kazusa with his own body..
"Pete? Aren't you gone already?? And why can you be here with your own body?!" Kazusa said with disbelieve.
"I don't know what happened either.." Pete said.
