Chapter 3
It was a beautiful morning. The sun was shining, birds were chirping, everything was happy and cheerful, but Chichiri still had that annoying, nagging feeling. He just wished it would go away, but he was curious to see why he was having it. As he reached the market place the feeling got stronger. It was so strange. He hadn't felt like this for a long time. While staring into space he suddenly bumped into someone which made him snap back into reality.
Kouran was walking down the road. She was so happy it was so nice outside, and that she was alive again, at least for now. She just wasn't sure how she was going to meet Chichiri. / I could go and work at the palace, but then I'd have to leave my family. Or I could find where he was and sneak in, oh yeah, then get killed by a guard. It would be so nice if I could just bump into him so I wouldn't have to think up all these crazy ideas, but that's the craziest of them all so far! / She was staring at the sky thinking all of that when all of a sudden she banged into someone and fell backwards. "Oh! I'm sorry, no da! I wasn't watching where I was going, no da." "Oh, it's not your fault, I wasn't watching either." As Kouran said this, a hand reached down to help her. She took it and looked at the person she bumped into. "I'm Chichiri, no da. What's your name, no da?" he asked. Kouran was shocked. She was kidding when she said she could bump into him. And she didn't literally mean BUMP into him either. "I-I'm K.Michiko. Nice t-to meet y-you." She managed to stutter as she shook his hand. "Your name suits you well, no da." he said. "What?" "Your name, Michiko, it means child of beauty, I think it suits you, no da." "Oh, thank you. That's very kind of you." she replied. "So.what brings you here, no da?" asked the monk attempting to make small talk. "Oh, I need to get some food. And um, other things." / Gods, I must sound like such an idiot! / Michiko thought. (A/N I'm callin' her Michiko from now on.) "Hai, no da. I need some paper, no da." "Is that all?" the girl asked. "Hai!" he said as they laughed a little bit. Taiitsukun looked down at the two laughing, and talking, and walking ar.what is this? They were walking arm in arm. Could they possibly fall in love? She certainly hoped so, she wouldn't want to kill the poor girl.again. She smiled at the two, they looked so happy and content walking together. She could clearly see the girl was head over heels in love with him. Taiitsukun hoped he would love her back.
"Tasuki, who's that girl with Chichiri?" Nuriko asked. "I dun know. They bumped into each other, but it looks like day knew each other already." The two seishi had followed Chichiri earlier because they were concerned about him, but now they were glad they did! They had to find out who this girl was.
"That's Michiko." A strange voice said from behind them. Both guys turned around quickly. Two girls were standing behind them. They both had blue eyes, but they were very different. "I'm Sayo." the shorter one said. She had coppery colored hair that hung down to her chest. Her eyes were the same color as Nakago's. "And this is Sachi." she said pointing to the girl next to her. " Hi. We're sorry to barge into your conversation, but we couldn't help over hear," the other girl said. She had blond hair that was pulled back into a waist-length braid. Her eyes were deeper than Sayo's. They were like the ocean, they seemed to pull you into them.
"She ain't dead yet?" Sayo asked turning to Sachi. The blond girl whacked her on the head. "Sayo! That's rude! She's our friend! Of course she's not dead yet! And by the looks of it, she won't be any time soon!" "Hai, hai. Just askin'. Ya didn't hafta hit me!" "Just askin' can get ya in a lot of trouble, ya know.little girl!!!" "LITTLE GIRL?!?!?!?! I'm only two years younger than you!!!" "I know." "I'm going to go see who Michiko's new boyfriend is." With that Sayo started to walk away. It didn't work very well though because Sachi was holding on to her collar. "Sachi, let me go!!!!!!!!!!! I wanna go meet Michiko's new boyfr." "Hi guys!" a voice from behind interrupted. Sachi dropped Sayo and spun around. "Oh, Michiko! And blue-haired guy!" Sachi and Michiko hugged before Chichiri introduced himself. "Nice to meet you Chichiri!" she said. "Hi Michi," a voice said from the ground. Everyone looked down and there was Sayo. "Thanks for droppin' me Sachi! Ya know ya could've put me down nicely!" "Tasuki, no da! Nuriko, no da! What are you doing here, no da?" the monk asked. "Oh, um, well, you see." Nuriko started. "Michiko, huh?" Tasuki said eyeing her. "When did ya meet Chiri?" "Oh, um, about half an hour ago." "Oh." Tasuki replied. Everyone except Michiko and Chichiri sweat-dropped. Then Sayo and Sachi glanced at Michiko and saw something weird. The dress she was wearing. The Michiko they knew NEVER wore that dress, she hated it. She thought it made her look fat. Now that they saw her in it they thought it looked great.but still. (A/N as you can probably guess I like .s!!!) They also noticed something different about her eyes. They were the same but they were different. They were less attentive and more mischievous looking. It was strange, very strange. "Um, Sayo, we better get going." Sachi said. "But why? I don' wanna!" "Oh, well we have to leave." she replied. Sachi grabbed Sayo's wrist and started to walk away, and then she turned around. "Bye everyone! It was great to see you Michiko! And it was nice to meet you Chichiri, Tasuki, Nuriko!" she said. "Yeah! Uh, BYE Michi!!! And Chichiri and Nuriko!!! Hope I'll see you soon Tasuki!!!" Sayo shouted. Everyone watched the two walking and arguing before Nuriko turned to Tasuki and said, "Tas we better go too!" "But." was all he managed to say before receiving a meaningful glance from the purple-haired seishi. " 'Kay." After everyone had left Michiko and Chichiri continued to walk together to get what they had originally come here for. As they passed a jewelry cart a beautiful bracelet caught the girl's eye. It had a design on it, a familiar design, one close to her heart. The bracelet had the same design as the gift Chichiri had gotten for Kouran the night he walked in on Hikou and Kouran kissing. But of course she didn't know that. She stopped and thought about it for a minute before taking out her pouch of money. After she paid for the bracelet Chichiri peered over her shoulder to see what she had bought. What he saw made him choke back tears. Michiko quickly turned around and asked him what was wrong. "Oh, nothing, no da" he replied. "Michiko, I have to go, no da. I'll see you soon, no da." Then he left. Michiko just stood there watching him walk away. "Good-bye." she whispered. /Chichiri, what's the matter? What's wrong? Was it something I said? Something I did? Only thirteen more days to make you love me. /
A/N- So, what did you think? Like I said earlier, there is only going to be two more chapters. After I finish this story I'm gonna write one about Sayo and Tasuki. Heeheehee. Oh, and I don't think I mentioned this but my characters Sachi and Sayo are modeled after people I know. Sayo is modeled after my friend Tess, she is one of me bffs and we're practically sisters. Sachi is modeled after me!!! Well, please review and tell me what you think about it so far and what I can do to make my writing better!!! Thanks for your support!!! It means a lot to me!!!
