Chapter 21: Ears and Fluffy Tail
There was no trace of Tadashi to be found. Puppy held her gun close to her body as possible. She was a huge smile on her face. I placed Kistune on my shoulder and walked up to the spot I usually sit at on his snout. I sat down and relaxed. Kistune crawled down my arm and pointed at me. She laughed then said, "Brother is jealous. You're jealous because you couldn't make her that happy." I blushed and poked Kistune with my finger. She giggled then hugged my finger.
I laughed at her because I couldn't take her serious. She shifted back and I caught her with my hand. She giggled some more. Akihiko stayed silent. Puppy turned around then held out her arms. She fell backwards and did a flip. Akihiko put his paw up and she landed on it. She gracefully said, "Thank you brother. I love you." She hugged his paw then jumped the ground. She landed gently and carefully. She held out her arms for him to put his head down.
I started to slide forward when he looked down. She hugged him and kissed his nose. I felt heat come off from his snout. The night took over the day. Kistune pointed out into the darkness. We all looked and saw two long ears standing up. It was hopping around and we noticed a fluffy tail. It started to hop towards us. We kept our eyes on it. It started to change. It hopped on its hind legs as it grew bigger. A white lining surrounded it. Kistune smiled then said in a cheerful voice, "It's Usagi."
The rabbit turned into a human form. Usagi walked up to us fully clothed. He bowed then gently said, "Hello there friends." Puppy took his hand then kissed it. I flushed with jealousy. Usagi blushed as he tried not to smile. Puppy tilted her head and she tapped his nose. His face became brighter. Kistune jumped off my shoulder and went back to normal size. She ran up to Usagi and hugged him. I closed my eyes and let my body relax.
Akihiko laid down then put his head on his paws. He fell fast asleep. Usagi held his ears as he said, "Uh… I wish to join you guys in your travel. I think you can help me find who I've been looking for. She happens to be like me but female." I let out a light laugh. Kistune lets him go then grabbed his hands. She gently said, "You can join us." Puppy smiled then looked back. I manage to fall asleep. She had a disappointed look on her face when she noticed that we were sleeping.
She jumped and landed gently and silently in front of me. She put her hands on my shoulder as she got on her knees. She licked my forehead then bit my nose. I woke up squealing. Kistune and Usagi looked at me and laughed. Akihiko didn't wake up but he scratched himself. I covered my nose with my right hand and opened my left eye to look at her angrily. I pulled her close with my left hand. She growled at me then said, "I dare you to do something."
I pushed her away then replied, "Oh, I will. He can join us only if he doesn't bring us down." Kistune and Usagi stopped laughing. Usagi clapped his hand then yelled, "Thank you so much." The day was coming soon. Kistune took Usagi hand and walked forward slowly. Making sure that she doesn't drag him by mistake. He held onto her hand lightly as he walked along with her.
