Chapter 8

Ryuuzaki Sakuno was sitting at the kitchen table, drinking tea with her aunt Mayu, and there was a black cat sleeping on another chair.

"You know, the fact that Kurokuro the Great has approached you is quite a surprise. He mostly ignores people who are not holding edibles in their hands and I didn't see you holding any food when you came home. He even puts on that condescending air when my fellow witches come visit," Mayu ba-chan wondered aloud, glancing at her familiar who was stretched out on a chair cushion. " You really must be special."

That cat had made her run all the way home, probably because it was tired of waiting at the front door with Mayu. Sakuno kept that insight to herself. She blushed anyway, at her aunt's compliment. She still had a lot of questions for her aunt on that topic.

"Mayu ba-chan, what is happening to me? What will happen to me?"

"I assume you have been getting strange recurring dreams? They would have started sometime back, but are getting more frequent now. These are what we call Premonition Dreams."

A-re? Sakuno seldom remembered what she saw in her dreams, so she wasn't sure if this had happened to her.

" When I started having these dreams, my mother told me my body turned very hot while I was sleeping, and for a while she thought I was running high fever. Sumire oba-sama must have found you showing strange signs while you were sleeping."

Well, this was more familiar territory. Sakuno recalled the biting cold she found herself in a few times after waking up. And just yesterday, Ryoma-kun had given her his jersey to protect her from the cold … …

"Mayu ba-chan, I still do not understand … … what is this Change that will take place?" Sakuno was trying very hard to find her footing in this information overload.

Her aunt's gold-speckled eyes lit up in humor, "Oh that, don't worry, it will be over so quickly, you won't even feel it."
