August 11th
Today some of us gathered down to the driver because of a sudden call that Kouya sent out. It seems that he's not the only one interested in the way a certain chimera works.
Shin- Alright. I'm here.
Hirouki- Same.
Looks like a lot of us have gathered here. I can see Kouya and Shun, Konosuke and Shin seem interested too and even Tatsu-nii showed up. Of course I came along with Torahiko.
Redd- U-Uh… well… what do you want to see?
Redd seems rather uncomfortable… they must have broken him down to get him to do this…
Kouya- Well… how about something we couldn't see at first glance?
Reen blinked before turning around.
Just what did he plan on showing?!
Before we could say anything he began to pull up his shirt. Once again there's his hair running down his back.
Tatsuki- Uh, Redd. That's not exactly something we haven't seen.
Redd- Uh… That's not it…
Suddenly from under the hair came two white wings the size and shape of a dove's.
Hiroyuki- Whoa!
It seems that the horns aren't the only thing that he and Tatsu-nii have in common.
Suddenly the back is covered as he turns around.
Redd- I-I once got hurt because I tried to fly with them. I was told to keep my eyes off the skies and back to the ground because that's where I'll be. A-Anything else?
Shun- OH! If you're part dragon can you breathe fire?!
Figures Shun would ask something like that…
Although I'm curious too now.
Redd- Eeh?! I-I've never tried… So I'm not sure…
Tatsuki- It shouldn't be that hard. Try and see if you can get it!
Suddenly I swear I could see Redd's eyes sparkle. I guess he'd do anything if Tatsu-nii believed in him.
Redd- Okay! I-I'll try!
Suddenly Redd took in a large breath and held it in before letting it out hard and slow. For a while it seemed like nothing would happen… and nothing did happen.
The little chimera didn't give in as he took in another breath but this time I couldn't tell what he did as suddenly a plume of flames flew from his mouth before he fell over and started to cough.
Hiroyuki- H-Holy…
Shun- Whoa!
Tatsuki- See?! That's what happens when you put your mind to it!
Redd looked like he would respond, but only coughed again.
Redd- I-I don't think that's something I should do too often…
Shin- Now I'm more curious… How did he light it? What was the fuel source?
Redd- Uh… I just sort of… tapped my teeth I guess?
With that he bit into the air, a small spark coming out when he did so… It didn't seem real… but then again what did we know about chimera beastmen?
Redd- As for fuel… I think it comes from the food I digest…
And suddenly no one wanted to push the topic anymore… the pure idea that he could possibly be… doing that out of his mouth was too much to handle…
Redd-… Uh… Oh! How about my feet? I bet you didn't all take a look at them!
Suddenly Redd sat down and took off his shoes to show off his feet. They had pads on them like a cat, one on the ball of his foot and five on the toes, but what caught their attention was the spaces between his toes. As he spread them apart to show a fleshy webbing between them.
Torahiko- Oh my god!
Shun- It's so strange!
Shin- That's interesting… It's like an otter's feet, how odd.
And with one quick movement the shoe went back on. It seems what everyone was saying didn't make him too happy.
Redd- S-Sorry… I got a bit carried away… I didn't mean to freak you out.
Tatsuki- Amazing… So that's how you could swim so fast!
Tatsu-nii to his rescue! It's like seeing a hero to the rescue of a poor damsel in distress.
Very clearly Redd began to blush, he looked kind of cute actually.
Redd- L-Listen… I feel like we should stop now… I'm sorry but if something like that disturbs you all I feel like I shouldn't do anymore…
A little disappointing, but we all understood well… he felt like we were uncomfortable with him… As he got up he gave out a yawn and began to wobble… I haven't seen him need to sleep so badly as he began to walk back up to the road before being lifted up onto Tatsu-nii's shoulders as he carried him home…
They look so cute together… I wonder if I can get them together before I have to leave… he trusted me with his secret, so I feel like I have to do something now.
