Chapter Five: Yoh ponders dancing, music and singing Shamans
As I stepped out of the car, I looked around. I'd seen this place before, but it had never been so... alive! It wasan open field used for farming... at least, that's what I knew it as. Now it was an open dance floor, with real singers.
I turned to Tamao, asking "Is this place any good?". Tamao (who had heard my story in the car) assured me it was, and led me to the songlist. It was on a table near the dancers.
It read:
...
Megumi Hayashibara - Oversoul
Ritsuko Okazaki - For Fruits Basket
Akeboshi - Wind
Megumi Hayashibara - Northern Lights
...
There was a group in the middle that caught my eye.Probably because the ones above were crossed off and the ones below weren`t complete strangers to me, like these ones. Those were the only one I recognized. I turned to see Horohoro and Pilika heading to the dance area. Ryu went with Milly, Ren with Anna, and Lyserg with a girl I hadbn`t seen before. She looked familiar, but I couldn`t place her. Long pink hair, and in punk-ish clothes.
"Lyserg, we have just enough time to get you changed..." I heard her say as I walked away with Tamao, who turned to me, asking if I wanted to dance. I`d never done it before, but - 'It`ll turn out fine' I told myself. We headed to the dance floor just as Megumi Hayashibara got on stage.
"The sky and the earth
Cross each other.
On this earth I'm standing on now,
The life is born and gone again
In this repeating daily life."
As me and Tamao danced., I thought over this verse. The last two lines basically meant people are born and die, and that`s just how it is. As we step to the music, I thought. 'Am I dead? Is this another life?
As I think this over, the last lines of music in the song are sung, and I had a feeling we`re not the only shamans at this dance.
"Let there be light
Revive a soul"
'Shamans, obviously' I think. 'Not professional ones, but probably shamans,". Tamao and me start to dance slowly, as the first lines of Ritsuko Okazaki's 'For Fruits Basket' starts to play.
"I was so happy
When you smiled at me, with
A smile that melts everything away.
Spring is still far away,
Inside the frozen earth.
I was waiting for the first sprout to bloom."
'A song about love at first sight, probably. I like this one. It's calm, quiet, and nice,' I thought. That made him think about Anna... 'I like Anna... But I like Tamao too..." As the last line played, I listened, thinking is was actually quite nice. Actually, he knew someone who could say that truthfully to someone. Faust.. and Eliza...
"Let's stay together, forever."
As Tamao and I sat down (Hadn`t had dinner yet) I recognised the song playing as english. This song was pretty much the only english song I listen too.
"You don`t bring milk to a dance!" I heard Anna yelling. I turned around to see her and Ren fighting (verbally).
"I`ve only had two glasses today!" he yelled back. I vaguely remembered...
~ "These bones must not have drunk enough milk when they were alive. I drink three glasses every day" (Approximate quote, Ren, Yoh vs. Faust fight.)~
"I don`t care If you've had two or twenty! You are the most embarrasing-" she yelled, interrupted by Ren.
"Who yells abut milk in the middle of a dance, you crazy-" Ren yelled back. It seemed to me they fought a lot.
"Don`t mind them, they always fight, " Tamao said as she walked back, food in hand. I took small bites, instead of my usual chomps, letting me and Tamao have a conversation. Some lyrics from the song caught my ear.
"Don't try to look so wise.
Don't cry 'cause you're so alright.
Don't dry with fakes or fears,
'Cause you will hate yourself in the end."
'Hmm...I`ve heard that somewhere...' I thought, as Tamao started speaking again (she had been eating).
"So, the day after tomorrow is our anniversary! We've been dating for eight years!" she said, squealing in delight. 'Do I have a present for her?' I asked myself. 'Guess I`ll have to buy her one.'
The song after it also caused me to listen. The word were quite interesting to me.
"Unwavering strength
does not exist
At the end of my path
Is the answer I yearn for"
I like songs that have hidden meanings with wisdom. This verse, for example, told that there is no perfect strength (Or solution), and that you may learn what you want to know once you're finished what you're doing. The last line made me think.
"Do you believe in destiny?", the last line, made me think. It was sung in english, and it sounded quite cool. How had they decided to put it there?
Suddenly a thought burst into my mind, so irrelevant it confused me. 'Jewels. What?' I asked myself, unknowing why I suddenly thought about crystal. 'Give Tamao jewels, like jewelry or something, for the anniversary,' my mind answered.
Eventually, the dance ended and we went home. As I headed in, Tamao pecked my cheek and headed quickly off to her car, like a little girl. This let me realise that, however different she seemed, she still was Tamamura Tamao. That means she still might be skittish about kissing. I headed in, wandered to bed, and slept.
