?: Good morning!
In the door frame was a boy with blue hair, Shearing glasses and a soft white face. He held a book in one hand and a glass of almond milk in the other. He was obviously foreign but looked affluent unlike the other migrants who plagued the city. The boy no doubt looked familiar to reishi, She had seen that soft girly-like face before and was snapped back to an early memory as the wind blew through her hair.
Reishi: It's you!
Arthur: Oh my, You're the girl from the festival.
[Flashback]
Hattori: EEK!
Hattori fell from the stand epicly. Her body contorted and spun around as she flew through the air.
*Crash*
She landed face first on to pavement. Paint buckets, Straw material and the signboard had covered her body.
?: Hey are you two ok!?
A person said.
Two boys ran over. One was a blue haired guy with Glasses and a good coat with a Great midriff
The other was Yellow haired guy with freckles and was wearing an british school uniform with red and white patterns
Reishi: Im fine, My friend over here definitely needs medical attention!
Reishi said.
The blue haired boy took off his jacket and placed over it hattori's wound while the other one went for help.
?: That should stop the bleeding for now…
[End]
Reishi: H-How? Why?
Arthur: Oh my. We have got to stop meeting in these circumstances..
He quipped.
Wick: *Bark*
Arthur: Hmmm? Wick? Is that you?
He turned his attention to wick, who was panting and wagging his tail, excitedly.
Wick: *Woof*
Arthur: Simon has been looking everywhere for you! Golly, You made him and Serella so nervous…
He scolded the dog. Reishi looked bemused at the boy. She could not believe the amazing coincidence that lead her here.
Reishi: Gosh. I didn't know you lived in the city.
Arthur: Where else would I live haha…
Reishi: I don't know…. I thought you were just some tourist….
Arthur: Not quite. My father is touring this country and we've decided to live here for the remainder of the time he's here.
He explained with a smile.
Reishi: Huh.
Reishi paused.
Reishi: So, I take it that this is your dog?
Arthur: Again, Not quite. He belongs to my cousin - simon who also lives here. I believe you met him before at the restaurant.
Reishi: Oh yeah.
Reishi recalled the memory of meeting the other boy at the restaurant. He was a bit cold but seemed like he meant well. He just seemed to care about the injury his cousin had sustained.
Arthur: He'll definitely be happy to see wick, once he wakes up. I trust that wick hasn't been giving you too much trouble.
Reishi: Define "Trouble." When I found him, he was rummaging through my garden.
Arthur: *Sigh* what a little troublemaker.
He sighed.
Reishi: He may be trouble but he's definitely a cute one. What breed is he?
Arthur: I believe he's a great pyrenees. Right from the mountains of Europa.
Reishi: So Exquisite!
Arthur: Heh. Don't say that to me, simon is the one who picked him out.
He said looking back into his own house.
Arthur: Speaking of him….
Arthur: Simon! Come down here! There's someone here for you.
Simon: If its the church of new astianism, tell them to piss off.
Simon snarled from upstairs.
Arthur: No, its something else…
Simon: Ugh. Fine.
Simon bemoaned.
*Rustle Rustle* Reishi and Arthur could hear simon rustling within his room. He seemed like he was struggling to find something to put on his body. Like he was struggling to find something to put his body.
Reishi: ….
Arthur: ...So…..
Just before arthur was about to start some small talk, simon's door opened and came out. He was wearing a scotch flannel shirt with a short briefs that covered his slender thighs.
Simon: God, This better not a prank again, arthur!
He said to himself just as he walked down the steps.
Simon: Huh…?
Simon stopped just before the foyer before seeing his own dog within the doorframe.
Wick: *BARK*
Simon: Wick! Wick is that you?
Simon's Melancholy voice came booming from the house's hall.
Wick: *Awooo*!
The dog sprinted towards his master. His tongue running wildly along his jaw with slobber.
*Plop* Wick leaped into simon's arms and began to lick him ravenously. The bond between the two of them could be seen, their faces lit up with excitement as they did a dance of hugging and paw shaking.
Simon: Wick! I missed you so much!
Wick: *Bark*
The dog licked his master~
Simon: Oh my god….. When you ran off at the carnival… I never thought I would see you again!
Simon: Me,Serella and Arthur looked everywhere for you!
Simon said with his eyes closed in haze.
He embraced his dog for a couple more seconds before turning to reishi…
Simon: You're the girl… from the festival and restaurant… Aren't you?
Simon asked.
Reishi: Yep. The one and only.
Simon: -You found my dog didn't you? I must thank you then.
Simon bowed to reishi. His shorts slipped off a bit after doing so, revealing a bit of his back flesh. As he tried to fix
Simon: ...What happened to his paw?
He asked.
Reishi: Oh that…. Well….
Reishi explained the origin of hiro's paw wound and how the shadowmancers had kidnapped him and huno and cut off parts of their limbs.
Simon: Ah!
Arthur: Outrageous…!
They both exclaimed with worried faces.
Simon: I heard of the shadowmancers before but…. I never would have imagined they would be so cruel….
Simon realized the pain his dog must have been in. It was hard for an owner of a dog or any kind of beast to imagine…
Simon: I swear if I get my hands on one of those brutes…..
Arthur: Simon….
Simon: Ugh. Come on, Wick. I'll make you one of your favorite treats - Beef Jerky.
He said and took his dog to the inside, where his safety would be guaranteed.
Arthur: Golly… I've gone through such an emotion whirlwind after these past 25 minutes. Both sadness and happiness has rushed through my heart.
Reishi: well said. I really tried my hardest to protect and nurture hiro… er wick, after the shadowmancers did what they did.
Arthur: I don't doubt that you did. You seem like a righteous lass.
Reishi: Righteous? That's not a word i've heard anyone describe me with.
Arthur: Well… There's a first time for everything!
Arthur Laughed.
Arthur: Say... Do you want to hang out sometime?
Reishi: H-Hang out? What do you mean?
Arthur: Just like me and you going somewhere. I find you interesting, M'lady and want to learn more about you.
Reishi: W-Well….
Reishi heart was fluttering with teenage emotions. While she has had plenty of bouys ask her out before, none have ever felt as sincere and honourable as arthur was being right now.
Reishi: Maybe next weekend…. When I'm not busy….
She suggested.
Arthur: Great! I guess we can decide on the day later, huh?
Reishi: I guess so...
Arthur: Yeah, Just to be sure, let's exchange phone numbers.
Reishi: (Gosh! This guy is really forthcoming!)
She steadily pulled out her high tech phone and exchanged numbers with the blue haired bombardier. Reishi was blushing and stymieing the whole time this was happening, while arthur seemed calm collected.
Arthur: You've uh…. Got quite the long phone number.
Reishi: I-Its my parents fault…. They wanted me to have a more "Unique" phone number.
She explained. Arthur tilted his head to the side.
Reishi: Well…. I must be going now. Juno gets cranky if I'm not home by 12.
Arthur: See ya!
With that, It was the end of reishi endeavor with wick. She had reunited him with his master -Simon and their bonds had shown ever through the darkness that had separated them.
