Thinking

"Talking"

Exaggerating

Chapter Two: A festival, eh?

Finally, she's home.

"Pirika! Did you have to leave so fast? I didn't finish eating!" Her brother complained.

"Well if it wasn't for Ren Tao!" she stated.

"It's always Ren's fault, eh?" Suddenly his mood changed, "How's your lover boy Lyserg? I don't see you talking to him much lately."

She felt her cheeks warm up. "It's late. I'd better go to bed." She said quietly as she went upstairs to her bedroom.

"Sweet Dreams" He said before turning on the TV.

Pirika slid into her bed as she looked in the direction of her desk. On it was an orange-stained headband. It was just yesterday when Lyserg and Pirika shared those rare talks about anything she can think of when a particularsomeone accidentally missed the garbage can and hit her with his orange juice instead.

Humph. How can anyone stand Ren & his bossy attitude? Torturing me is his hobby. He just has to see me screw up and laugh in my face for it. Why can't he be more like Lyserg? Lyserg is so sweet and kind and caring and cute and most importantly…strong.

Without realizing, her eyes laid upon a poster stating there will be a firework festival tomorrow.

A festival tomorrow, eh? Maybe Lyserg will ask me to go. She thought before falling into a dream about her and Ren arguing again.

Meanwhile…

Ren tried to dodge but his enemy was too fast for him. He got hit on the head with a blade, hard. He fell to the ground, no matter how hard he tried to stay standing. Just as the lifeless zombie was going to finish him off, he heard a voice. Who can that be? He thought. He couldn't tell what the voice had said but it got rid of his father's assassin. Before he can turn around to see his savior, he felt his conscious slipping away. Just before he blacked out, he saw shades of blue and white.

Ren's eyes pop open from the dream. Why do I keep dreaming about that day? WHY? But before he had time to keep complaining, he sensed something...moving…towards him.

He slowly reached for the lamp by his bed and slowly turned it on.

In front of him was a zombie twice his height (A/N: not that I'm insulting him!). Before he can stop himself, he let out a very high pitch scream.

Without a warning, Bason 'popped' in front of him, shouting, "Crazy Fan girl! Back away from…Master…Ren?"

A very confused Bason looked around only to find a very red-faced Ren and a recently deaf, ugly zombie. Bason quickly finished off the zombie, seeing as Ren was too embarrassed to do anything at the moment.

"Uh…where did the screaming fan girl go, Master Ren?" Bason stared at Ren, not knowing what to expect. Ren quickly got up and walked towards the door, mumbling, "I'm going to train."

In the training room, Ren did his 100th push up and got up. He walked towards the wall-sized window (A/N: it's like those windows that take up the whole wall…itz really pretty and I wish I had one D…btw) and thought about his dream.

Who can that girl be? Blue and white is my only clue and that's not enough! The thought of blue and white reminded him of Pirika. Nah, it can't be her. She's too…weird and…fine, I admit it, she's cute. But who am I kidding? She likes wimpy Lyserg. (A/N: no offense to Lyserg or all the Lyserg fans out there…in fact I'm a Lyserg fan myself)

His gaze was directed towards a poster Jun had brought home. A festival tomorrow, eh? Maybe I should… He quickly got up.

It's worth a try… he thought as he groomed his black cat. He smiled as he walked back to his room and dreamed about Pirika and him arguing again.
