"Ha-Haruka?! What's going on?" I asked nervously.

There was a sudden bolt of fire from behind all of them and as soon as the smoke cleared out I could see a horse. A large horse with flames on it's mane. I coughed and fanned most of the smoke away.

"Everybody! GET OVER HERE!" A thunderous roar exploded inside my brain.

They all huddled over beside the large horse.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So, your name is Satoshi-kun, eh?" the horse asked with a smile. She sure has multiple personalities.

"Ah, ye-yes!" I said bowing.

The Rapidash took a step forward.

"Now that you know our secret..." She said. "what will you do?" still with that happy expression on her face.

My fear changed to confusion. I stood there still shaking a bit and closed my eyes, took a deep breath and let out sigh.

"Haruka-san's mother," I began. "I can tell that you have a problem with your family, mainly speaking of the curse. I gave your daughter a contract. This contract states that in all ways I will help her and let her use my room and in return give me the information about your troubles. When I say help her, I mean I will also help you, too."

I felt really proud of myself. 'How do I do it?' I asked myself while grinning silly.

"You asshole!" I heard rumbling in my mind.

I looked to find the Golem giving me a hated eye. His eyes were practically red.

"This is no fairy tale! Fool! You can't just give us an antidote and make us feel better!" He roared. "People like you are the reason we're like this! Don't pity us!"

'It was true. There was no antidote to there mishap.' I told myself.

My heart shot up. Not from embarrasment, but from shear anger. 'Fine then! Don't take my offer!'.I forced myself to stop shaking and fought back.

"I'll take back my offer then!" I shouted. I stuck my hands into my jacket.

"It was better before you came into my life anyways," I said. I turned my back away from them and began to walk away.

Suddenly I felt something hop onto my shoulder. I looked to find Haruka on my shoulder. She was crying. I gave a little smirk and wiped her tears away. I picked her up from my shoulder. I put her gently on top of some dead leaves.

"S...Sorry," I whispered as I got back up and began to leave again.
