LCA: Hey all. I'm back. And I'm crazier than ever. But this has nothing to do with this chapter. Like the last one it is done from a character's point of view. I think that it's sweet.
A: And I'm here to help her this time!
LCA: Yes. This is just for a change in pace. Also, thank you to my best beta ever… My first one but… still the best. I hope you do enjoy this chapter. And as always,
A: LCA is not the creator of this series. She does not own anything. Not the characters or that kind of stuff. She does however think that she owns some of the characters in her mind. Like Rika and Karou. But that's a story for another day.
LCA: …ANYWAY…. Hope you enjoy!
"Blahblah"
Thinking
------------------------------------------------------
It's always about him. I wish she would just let go. Even so, I can't leave her alone. I go with her. She only cares about finding him.
Today we go to an amusement park. I've never been to one before. But the only reason we are going is because there is a rumor he might be there.
So that's why we're going to an amusement park. But I don't care. I'll go everywhere with her. And I would go anywhere for her.
The fact that it's started raining gets me a little uncomfortable. I really don't enjoy the rain, or water.
"Machika! I don't like the wet!" I complain. She looks down at me with a smile.
I don't know why but the smile almost hurts me.
She will wait for him no matter what. She even asks if I want to head back with the others.
"NO! Kiki will wait with Machika!"
I know I'm being selfish, but I won't leave her. Not ever. Not likehe did. I want to be here for her always. I don't want her to get hurt.
She smiles at me again. I know she's thinking of him. It's not fair. I haven't left her like he has.
She stands next to me looking at the sky. She's only thinking of him.
She starts to move to a sheltered area. I follow her. I really don't like wet.
When she sits on a bench I sit beside her. I want her to feel better. I lay my head on her lap.
She starts to pet me, softly and yet absently. I know she will only see him, only think of him. But so long as I can stay by her side I don't care.
She's my Machika. Mine. I want to protect her.
The park isn't fun anymore. No one is here and there is only a feeling of sadness. I don't think it is fun anymore. No more big fishies either.
Machika stirs. I look up to see her standing again.
She says it's time to go back. I will gladly follow her.
We start to walk out of the park. I am following close behind her.
Loud thunder and bright lightning makes her turn around.
I turn around too. I know she sees him. He's standing there, soaking wet.
I stand there and watch as she runs to him, her back to me. I can smell the salt in her tears. And then in one word I hear her happiness, sorrow, joy, pain, and love. She says it in a voice soft like a whisper.
"Rain…."

LCA: Waaaahhh!
A: … You have got to be kidding me.
LCA: I think I made him too smart and I can't believe I wrote it!
A: …Uh-huh… So….
LCA: I made this chapter short too! And it's so emotional.
A: Kinda.
LCA: And I wish Machika could just know how Kiki felt! He is such a loyal friend!
A: Great. Not only did you write this a little OOC but now you are acting OOC. Stop it.
LCA: -sniffle-
A: Please comment and review and tell her what you think.
