Chapter 2: The Job

Shun's POV

"Here you go. I'll see you at dinner," Rafe says as he's walking away.

While I wait for dinner I decide to meditate and relax. As I'm meditating I hear someone Open the door, so I open an eye to see who it is.

"Hey Shun," Ren says as he opens the door and comes in.

As I'm getting up to greet him he unexpectedly sit down beside me. "How's it going Ren?"

"It's been good, so I have a question for you."

"I've heard."

"How do you stay so calm all the time?"

"I meditate. Ren you know that, what's really going on?"

"Well, I wanted to ask if you would-"

"Hey guys dinners ready," Dan interrupts, "are you coming?"

"We're kinda in the middle of something," I say trying to get Dan to leave.

"Ok," Dan says as he walks out the door.

"Alright, where were we," says Ren.

"you done now?" Says Dan interrupting once again.

"Dan!" I yell annoyed.

"Fine but hurry up I'm starving,"

"Go ahead and start we'll be out in a minute," Says Ren as Dan walks out the door.

"So what did you want to ask me?" I say relieved that Dan was finally gone.

"Well, we're looking for someone to head a secret team on Gundalia. Even though you're human, we believe that you would be the best guy to lead this team, so are you in?"

"Let me think about it and talk to the others. I'll get back to you by the end of the week."

"Alright, I'll be waiting for your answer."

"Well, you ready for dinner they're probably waiting for us," I say as I open the door, "Shall we?"

We reach the dinning room and I can hear Dan complaining, "Dude they need to hurry up."

"We're here," I say announcing our arrival.

"Finally, what were you guys talking about anyway?"

"Long story short, Shun might be moving to Gundalia."

"Huh!" Everyone says in confusion.

"Ren offered me a job, and I'm thinking about accepting." I say trying to clear it up.

"On Gundalia? I'm sorry Shun but your human. Aren't you worried about leaving Earth?" Asks Rafe concerned.

"I'm still thinking about it I'm not sure yet," I answer.

"Well, it would be a great opportunity," Marucho says.

"Yeah, but what about us Shun?" Dan asks.

"Guys I haven't made up my mind yet, so stop talking about it and let me think."

After we finished our meals, I went to meditate and think things over. It's a lot to think about. I would be moving to Gundalia and might never see Dan or Marucho again. Well, I need to think, so I'd better meditate. As I sit down to meditate in the room I feel this strange sensation telling me to go outside.

When I get outside I find a tree stump and start my meditation. It feels amazing out here the wind blowing through hair, just being surrounded by the wind makes me feel at home. You know if I did go to Gundalia this might not be an option for me, there wouldn't be any trees or calm grassy areas to meditate in. I mean Gundalia isn't even my home and could never replace Earth and the memories I've made there. Besides I'm not even human. I don't even know what I really am. What would the others think If they found out? It's getting late I better head back in.
