Chapter 7: Back to the Norm?

The nest day Sora awoke in Tasuki's bed with Chichiri sleeping on a futon on the floor next to her and an empty one next to him where Tasuki must have slept. She was still half-asleep and staggered over Chichiri before stepping on his stomach.

"DAAAAAAAAAAA!"

"S'ry Chi-Chan.*yawn*" Sorry wobbled over to the mirror on the wall and took a peek at her face. Her cheeks were sore and red from crying half the night. She fiddled with her hair a little before she jolted away by her memory from that night.

"Oh my."

"Sora? Are you ok no da?"

"Um.I just.um." Sora blushed and began to fidget.

"Na no da?"

"It's just somethin' Tasuki.did for me.last night." Chichiri patted her on the cheeks.

"You don't need to worry no da. Tasuki and I are behind you all the way no da!"

"I know that it's just.well.never mind."

"No daaa."

Sora grabbed what was left of her stuff from her room and want back to Tasuki's room. Chichiri was sitting on the floor meditating and Tasuki was still no where to be found. She warn Chichiri that she was dressing and if he turned around he would have a whole new 'holy experience.' The Shonyan had given her some period clothing so as not to look too suspicious. She struggled with the first layer and just said, "Screw this! Chichiri can I borrow some of ur stuff?"

"Sure no da." She grabbed a pair of pants and a loose shirt. She put them on and as she was knotting the ties Tasuki came into the room.

"I hope ya'll had a good rest cause we're leavin' today for.where ever the hell we please." Sora cocked her head to the side. She hadn't heard the plans yet. She blushed a few time when Tasuki looked her way but just continued her packing as she listened to Chichiri and Tasuki fight over who Sora was gonna ride with.

"She can ride with me no da. After all after you putting the moves on her last night she may be uncomfortable no da."

"WHAT? I did not such f*&^%$#@ thing! I just tried to make her feel better!"

"Feel better no da? Well you must have felt something!"

"I DIDN'T FEEL NOTHIN" OF HERS!!!!!" Sora giggle. She thought it was so sweet of them to be fighting over her. She walked over to get in on the fun.

"Don't be so jealous Chichiri besides in my world I'd be illegal. And Tasuki didn't get anywhere with me. It's not like he didn't try though BAWAWAWAWA!"

"I NEVER DID A THING!"

"Sure you did no da. I got it all on film!" Chichiri whips out a Polaroid he took of the 'moment' (Sora taught him how to use it). In the picture Tasuki's hands had rested on her lower back.

"See no da? His hands are way close to her butt no da."

"THEY ARE NO WHERE NEAR HER ASS YOU FREAKIN' ECCHI MONK!" Sora laughed hysterically at their fighting. Chichiri looked at her and smiled with light eyes and Tasuki gave her a rough hug.

"It's great to see ya laugh again." She stopped laughing and just blushed. Chichiri rubbed his elbow against Tasuki's arm.

"If I had my camera I would have had proof you touch something there too no da.I mean look at her blush no da!"

"Shuddup." Tasuki growled.

Sora ended up riding with Tasuki in the end. Chichiri often lifted his camera in the air to let Tasuki know that if he fumbles he will have a picture for proof. 'Once Chichiri gets to sleep ehehe I'll fry him.'

"Say something Tasuki-kun?" Sora asked.

"Nothin'"

"Chichiri.I think Tasuki said he was gonna have his way with you when you fall asleep." Chichiri bonked Tasuki on the head with his staff. As Tasuki shook off the blow Sora asked, "What do we have to do? No one told me anything."

"Don't worry about anything no da."

"Yeah leave everything to us!"

"TASUKI! CHICHIRI! JUST BECAUSE THIS SUCKS ASS IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I CAN'T BE INVOLVED!"

"Oh wow.pissed."

"Sorry no da."

"Just tell me." Sora grinned sweetly.

"Well ok no da. We have to find the corpse of your past self, Kana, and, if we can, your brother, Kurai." Sora looked a little worried as she began to remember her past.

"Then what?" Tasuki tightened his grip on the reins.

"We bring back you past self from the dead and desecrate Kurai's corpse. Isn't this just gonna be a day at the park?"

"Shit." Sora cursed. "How do we find it?"

"We are supposed to find the lake where you, I mean she had died no da. Maybe you could tell us where it is?"

"How am I supposed to?"

"Don't think about it now. We'll find it."

"And then I go home right?" Sora said sadly. She missed her home but she would miss her new friends.

"Sora please don't worry about that now no da. When the time come you can make your choice to stay or go. For now your safety is all that matters no da."

"Don't worry about me."
