"Hey there!" Jaden whispered crouching down softly. He knew of the danger of approaching unknown creatures but the fuzzy ball of fur seemed the least threatening thing he'd ever seen. The big eyes took a hesitant peek up at the stranger, cooing softly in response. "Are you hurt?" he asked, the Kuriboh purring at the soft gentle and caring tone. Small white wings branched out tenderly and the Kuriboh took to the air, swirling around the boy with hair similar to his appearance. "I guess your okay!" He laughed snuggling the soft fur as the creature landed on his shoulder. "Wanna go on an adventure with me?"
"Coo la!" it sang batting its wings in agreement.
Jaden started forward with his new companion. "So which direction should we go?" he asked slowing his pace and observing the lively scenery. "I never been out this far, so you'll have to help me!" In response the ball of fur cooed leaning to his left, and Jaden followed.
...
Jaden was led by the creature to a cliff edge, the ball of fur nuzzling between his shoulders blades. Eyes furrowing in concern. "What is it?" he watched as the winged creature looked below whimpering softly. Gripping the moss covered floor he peeked over blinking in amassment, and horror. A boy stood face to face with a growling beast, standing on its hind legs baring its many rows of teeth. He could only see very little of the man from this distance, only estimating he was near or older to his age. Jaden stood up on shaking legs, desperately searching the dense woods below in hopes of finding help. He frowned when he saw nothing, as if the woods themselves rid the animals from the area, in fear of the death match within its wits.
BOOM
Jaden fell hard on his backside from the sudden and harsh force. Coughing up the dust clouding the air around him. "Ouch... What happened? Hey, fuzzy guy, you okay?" he opened his eyes softly blinking them to clear the dizziness. Large brown eyes blocked out the world, as the creature cooed in relief, backing out of Jaden's face. Wincing from the slight pain, he managed a toothy grin to reassure the ball of fur. "I'm fine, no worries! So what happened?" The creature turned peering over the cliff once more before looking at the confused boy. Getting up on all fours he once again peered over the side.
The boy was gone and the beast was dead.
...
Planning ahead was never his thing. Firstly he never really needed too, with a life of isolation he didn't have to worry about much. Until now. From his uncle constant complaining, Jaden ate more than other kids his age. Chazz would shut his mouth once Jaden asked to meet this other kids. Of course Chazz said no. Shaking his head to rid himself of those thoughts and to once again focus on the problem. He was hungry. Very hungry. His lips pouted as he laid on his back spread out wide like a frustrated child. The loud howl of his stomach only a constant reminder. "Food..." he grumbled, rolling to his side playing with the grass. "Boredom..." he face planted the earth too lazy to deal with either problem.
"Waa ah..." the fuzzy guy whimpered nudging the boys cheek.
Jaden smirked, winking at the creature before closing his eyes. "I'm just gonna rest for a bit..." he mumbled. The Kuriboh looked up at the sky to only see the bright blue sky, night far off.
...
The cloaked figure watched the boy, a small smile on its lips. The figure new of the boy's existence, however it seemed Yusei had forgotten lots of his past. To the cloaked woman this was a chance at her lost lover once again. "Yusei..." she moaned touching her lips with a faint blush, unable to be seen past the shadow under her hood. But our life together can not start until the other boy dies.
