Chapter 2
A New Start For Ken
Ken's Pov
I try to stand up. It seems so hard to move with two legs. I drop down each time I stand up. Hikari turn her back on me and said...
"Ken, are you alright? Just get up and try to move like this." Hikari was giving an example how to walk with two legs. It's so hard. My feet hurt because I have fallen down many time. I end up with bruises. I still feel a little bit dizzy.
Finally we are home. But I feel sick. My body is burning. Hikari brush away my fringe that is covering my right eye. She put her hand on my forehead to measure the temperature. She said that I'm having a fever. What is fever, I think? But I know that it makes me feel bad. Then I went back outside.
"Where are you going, Ken? Come back inside. You are still sick" she said.
"Hikari. I'm...always stay outside of my house." I said. My English is bad. I better work on it. Every time I face her she will cover her eye and shout. I don't know why.
"Hikari, are you alright. You are doing this, like this covering your face thing every time I look at you. You ... scare of me?" I ask her. Showing her an example of me covering my own face.
"Ken. You are different now. You are a human. Human sure cover themselves with cloth and you can't go naked every time."
"Like how?" I asked her. "I don't even have anything to cover with."
"Oh...Just cover the part that is under your stomach, okay. It's actually your most private part."
"You mean this long thing that I use to throw those yellow liquid that smell mushy." I pointed. But she doesn't even dare to look at it. When I'm a horse, she doesn't even care about it. What different can it make?
"Yeah, yeah. That part."
"Hikari. You don't have to worry about me, okay? I'm just going to go somewhere. I will be fine." I was getting worry. What will Hikari think of me now? Now I'm a human. She doesn't even want to look at me or start a conversation with me. I don't want to be left alone. Suddenly, my eyes were getting wet. What is this? I saw Hikari got it too when she was...she was...How to explain? It is like, when someone feels bad, their eyes will be wet? Human is one funny creature. I walked away covering the thing that Hikari will call it a 'ooo ooo' I settle down in the woods not far from my home. I try to seat down but it hurts. I forgot! I have to seat like a human.
"Okay. Put your leg here and here." I mumble to myself. "There I done it." After a few time of failure I finally succeeded it. I was getting hungry. Then I saw something red up in a tree. It's apples. Yummy, yummy to my tummy. My mouth is drooling with drool of course. It was too high for me to reach. Then I've to knock it down with my head like always. I backed a little and started to charge. BOOM! I knocked the tree. Nothing have change accept my head. 'Ouch'. It hurt. There's a lump on my head. I've to run home to find Hikari if she knows how to stop this spinning that's in my head. I can't even stand up right. Everything is hurling around.
"Hikari! Hikari! Help me stop this spinning that's in my head, will you? It hurts" I whimpered.
"KEN! Please cover there first." She scream.
"I'll try." Slowly, I put my hand away from my head and cover it. My head were spinning. My eyes is starting to get wet again. Hikari slowly rub my head with something that smell really awful. It smelled like herb. I can recognize it. It grow in the mountain. We use to go there often to get some herb to sell it. Hikari's hand was so soft and gentle. It makes me remember how my mother will snuggle me and care for me. My mother's love for me.
"Hikari." I said.
"What is it, Ken? She ask.
"Do you still like me? I don't want to be alone. I want to stay with you. You feel like my mama. ~sob~ I like it. It make me feel warm." I snuggled. She wrap her arm around me. She took out a cloth and cover me.
"How do you end up with lump on your head, Ken?" she ask.
"Well, I was knocking my head on the tree so that the fruits will drop down from the tree."
"Silly Pony" tease Hikari. She chuckle a bit. Looking at my dumb expression. "Well Ken. I think you should take a bath. You smell."
"Okay." I said. I went to the watering hole. I was shock when I saw my reflection on the water.
"Who is that? Is it, me? I look...different." I touched my face. It's soft. My eyes where violet in colour. I dip myself in the water. I run around and make myself wet and clean as possible.
A few day has past. Hikari bought some cloth for me from the city. It look pretty nice. But it doesn't felt comfortable. This few days, I've help Hikari with all her chores. It's easier when I'm a human with a pair of hand. It was dinner time. I still have trouble with how the way I eat and sit.
"Ken sit properly. Don't eat so fast, okay? You will choke." As soon as she say choke. I really do choke on my food.
"~cough~couh~ I'm sorry. I can't help it. I'm hungry." I begin to eat again.
"Ken, will you be so kind and help me with my chore?"
"Okay. What is it?"
"Will you get that two basket of crops to the market in the town?
"Uhh...I'm not sure whether I know how to go to the market, Hikari?"
"Don't worry. I'll tell you how to go there. It's easy."
'Okay. I'll do my best."
"Good. Thank you, Ken. You have helped me a lot."
'No problem."
I've never been to the city before. When I reach there, it's like a whole new world to me. Human were everywhere. There is little children running around in front of me. One of them nearly knock me down.
"I better get this thing to the market. It's dangerous here. This thing is heavy too." I said to myself.
After I've send the crops to the market. I explore the town. It was big. People were bargaining, shouting and talking with everyone. And there I saw a group of horses that look exactly like my kind. A man was torturing the horses. I must save my kind.

Pandora O.T (Annie): How is it? I like it. You can also read another story of mine call 'If I Never Knew'. I like to write thing about Kukri because I felt that Hikari does care about more then Miyako. I'm not talking bad about her. Ken can be with the person he love. Love is free.
Ken: Good for you. I will love the person that cares about me.
Davis: Even me.
Ken: Then what is Kensuke all about?"
Davis: Don't know. I'm just following what they write and do it.
Hikari: Please. Make us better.
Annie: I love drawing.
Davis: Let's draw, shall we?
Ken: Read, enjoy and review. Please. I want to know how you feel about me.*puppy dog eye* I love you all that read this.
Davis: Me too.
T.K: Me three.
Annie:????. Don't worry. Daisuke and Takeru will be in the next chapter. Please review. I want to know how well my story is. Is it good or bad?
