Chapter 11: Realization and Then Some

Sora gave Chichiri a peck on the cheek as thanks for the shirt. She loved the blueness and the pattern. It was so Chichiri like. She then gave a little tug at the light tan pants Sora had borrowed from Chichiri back at Ti-Yi-Jun's palace. Chichiri motioned to Sora to follow him. She nodded with a smile and followed close behind him to the lake. Chichiri dipped in a fishing pole and patted the ground for Sora to sit.

"Things have changed a bit over the past few days no da."

"Yeah I know.sometime I don't feel like myself."

"That is easy to understand no da." There was a moment of silence between them.

"You know.I think there is a change in Tasuki no da."

"Yeah. He has been gone a while."

"That is no what I am."

"I bet he is jerking off somewhere hahaha!"

"SORA NO DA!?" Chichiri turned red in embarrassment and then grabbed his chest from the pain of laughing.

"Oh Sora-chan! Enough of this foolishness no da. I wanted to talk to you no da."

"Ok Chi-chan.^^" Sora grinned.

"Well I think that he my may have feelings for." All of a sudden Tasuki appeared with the horses.

"AHA THE LITTLE BUGGERS RAN OFF! They were no match against me! Stupid bastards hehe!" Chichiri had an annoyed look on his face. Sora felt her face turn slightly red. She could still feel his breath on her lips.

"What the hell are ya starin' at Sora? You and Chichiri had better pack up. We should get the hell outta here." Sora shook her feelings off and replied, "Yeah this place is getting too depressing. We should leave."

"But to where no da?"

"How the f%^& should I know!" Sora stared up at the sky for a moment.

"Let's just go where ever the wind should take us."

"Alright! When that Kurai bastard shows up we can smoke 'em! Tasuki cheered." Just then the sky parted for a moment and Ti-Yi-Jun appeared. Tasuki face faulted, Chichiri hid his eyes and Sora held her mouth before she puked.

"THAT"S ENOUGH OF THAT!"

"I'm sorry Ti-Yi-Jun. You just startled us no da!."

"Well you should be sorry! Anyhow I came in to look in on you.SORA YOUR BACK!"

"Yeah yeah I know I have wings."

"I never expected this to happen." Tasuki puffed up his chest in anger.

"You never expected WHAT to happen?!"

"You know what.I don't think it is irrelevant for me to tell you." Ti-Yi- Jun teased.

"I don't think this is the time to joke no da."

"You are right. What I didn't expect was a merge." Sora looked up at him and cocked her head to the side.

"A merge?"

"Yes. Even though Kana and you are the same soul you are INFACT two different people. She lacked spirit and you lacked power."

"So what's that to me?"

"It means that you may become your past self. In time your personalities my be switched."

"Do you mean that they are sharing bodies no da?"

"In Lay terms.yes." Sora thought back to her dream. 'You have to become who I am.' She recalled from her vision.

"She said that I need to become what she was. In my dream." Ti-Yi-Jun looked softly at Sora.

"I fear that she may take over your body. You wings are a dead give away."

"SO what do I do?"

"Keep your will strong." Ti-Yi-Jun disappeared and Sora was left with her thoughts. Tasuki stared at the ground kicking stones. Ti-Yi-Jun's words rung through his head. 'I fear she may take over your body.'

"No!"

"What is wrong no da?"

"What do we do! I don't understand.Kurai wants her.and now Kana may take over her body? What now?" Sora walked over and gave Tasuki a friendly punch in the stomach.

"You worry? I think I should be the one to worry. It is not your body. However, I can not imagine losing my control of myself to Kana. She is me after all. What harm could she do?" Tasuki snorted. He couldn't think of a thing to argue about. It was really up to Sora in the end.

"No da.Sora is right. All we can do is strengthen our selves for when our powers are needed."

"Yep. Let's just pack things up and find a less nostalgic place to stay." Sora nodded. Sora packed her items and placed them on the horses. She rode on the back of Tasuki's horse so her wings would not be hitting him in the chest. As they rode Sora would playfully cover Tasuki's eyes with her wings or smack the back of the horse to make it nay.

"YOU ARE SOOOO ANNOYING!" Tasuki blurted. Sora shifted her eyes at him.

"I am ANNOYING? Well then Mr. Has Seen Me Half Naked Last night!"

"TASUKI NO DA!?"

"I didn't see nothin'!!! I SWEAR!"

"Sure ya did." Sora grumbled. Tasuki looked back at her on his horse and she was grinning. She was teasing him. 'Sometimes I am just so fu^&%*$ gullible.' Tasuki thought to himself. Suddenly he felt something around his waist. Sora placed her arms around him holding on tight as if though she were about to fall off. "You ok girlie?"

"Oh yeah sure!." Sora grinned at him. Her wings were heavy and were pulling her off the saddle. She was reluctant to hold on to him.but being that close wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

"Hey Tasuki.Chichiri? Do ya think I could fly?"

"Well you could at one point in your life, I couldn't see why not no da."

"I bet ya could.if you loose some weight HAHAHA!" Sora grimaced at Tasuki and her eyes flashed at him. All of a sudden a splash of water hit him in the face.

"Haha serves ya right." Sora laughed as she showed off her power a little.

"Freaking women." Tasuki grumbled.

"Oh so do you want a little fire in your pants?" Tasuki had an uncomfortable look on his face. Chichiri grinned at Sora and reached his hand over to her shoulder.

"I think that is enough no da. We don't need anything roasted if ya get me no da."

"Fine fine hehe."
