Miyu and Kanata in Planet Otto
Disclaimer: I don't own Daa Daa Daa. If I did, I shouldn't be writing fanfics…
Hey ya'll! Sorry if I rushed the ending of the previous chapter coz I need to study for my exams… I was bored of reading the book and lots of things popped out of my mind…: well thanks for the review…
From the previous chapter…
"Ahhhh! KANATA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
It was a scream from Miyu's room. Kanata hurriedly ran to her room. He slid the door open and revealed a dimensional chasm trying to suck everything it could. It was strong. He saw her, holding onto the closet door. "Hold on Miyu!" Kanata exclaimed but Miyu was sucked into the hole. Kanata was also forced to enter the chasm.
Chapter 2
"Hold on Miyu!"
Kanata…
"Miyu!"
…
"Oi! Miyu…!"
The blond girl finally opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Kanata's face. It looks like he's panicking. "Finally! You woke up…" Kanata said kind of relieved.
"Where the heck are we?" Miyu asked when she has finally got her senses back. She looked at her surroundings. They were in a lush green forest.
"I don't know either… I think we are not in Heiomachi anymore" Kanata answered.
Miyu finally remembers it all…
Flashback…
'I miss Ruu-kun so much… Those fancy memories… I'm happy I met a peculiar being that's not from Earth. Those times when we tried to hide Ruu and Wannya's identities were a cause of panic but I sure miss it…' she reminisced
Then, she sensed that there was something behind her. She turned and saw a dimensional chasm appear. It was really strong. Her futon was sucked into and other things followed. "Oh my!" she exclaimed as it wanted to suck the rest of the things in her room and… her. So she shrieked, "Ahhhh! KANATA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Kanata rushes to her room and tries to rescue her. Unfortunately, the two of them got sucked in.
End of flashback…
"Oi! Miyu!" Kanata calls her attention again. "Now is not the right time to fantasize… I think we should get out of this forest first"
"Okay…" she said and stood up but failed to. She sprained her ankles. Kanata came to her aid and offered his back. "Come on. I'm gonna give you a piggy back… you're ankles look swollen" he offered.
"No thanks… I'm okay. I can walk on my own." Miyu said because she was embarrassed and stubborn. She tried to stand up but she ended in Kanata's arms.
"Why are you so stubborn? You can see and feel that your ankles are injured yet you keep on telling me you're okay. It's obvious that you're not! You might get more injured." Kanata scolded her. He carried her in his arms as if they were newlyweds. Miyu blushed but tried to hide it.
Miyu's POV
Why am I blushing? Perhaps, it's because Kanata's worrying about me… Oh! Quit the thought Miyu. He'll never do that… Worry about me? That's not in his dictionary… Demo… Demo… Ugh! Watashi no baka! Why am I thinking about this nonsense…?
-End of POV-
While he was carrying her, Miyu looked at Kanata observantly. Kanata checks on her from time to time and he observed that she was staring at him for sometime. 'Why is she looking at me like that?' he thought. He looked away and blushed. She noticed Kanata's cheeks turn slightly red. Now, her mind got back into her body and realized that she has been staring at him for quite sometime. She looked away with a blush.
"Anou…Miyu…" he started.
Miyu looked at him. 'Darn! What am I gonna blurt out?' he thought.
Then, he sees a nearby cottage. "Look!" he said "We can ask if we could stay there for a while"
"Yeah! Come on hurry up!" she said excitedly.
"Sorry but I'm not a horse… you're heavy, you know…" Kanata sarcastically said.
"Yeah sure… whatever… Did you just say I'm heavy!?" Miyu exclaimed.
"Yeah… You're heavy!" he teased.
Then, they exchanged words of discouragement until an old woman's voice came out of nowhere. "Are you lost?" the woman asked.
"Uhm… actually we don't know where we are…" Miyu said politely.
"Oh… Don't worry… you're still in Planet Otto." The old lady said with a smile.
"NANI!? WE'RE IN PLANET OTTO!?" they chorused.
"Why? Is something the matter?" the clueless lady asked.
"Of course… We are from Planet Earth. How can we get back there?" Kanata said, trying to control himself. "Well I think I can't help you about that…" the lady said, "But you newlyweds can stay at my house for awhile"
"… N-Newlyweds!?" they chorused.
"Aren't you married?" the lady asked.
"I don't even want him!" Miyu said.
"Same here" Kanata said.
"We're just middle school students" they said in unison.
The two of them blushed and the woman asked, "Well then, why are you carrying her young man?"
"Because her ankles are swollen…" he answered
The old woman looked at it and said, "Oh… you really need to go to my house. I have the right cure for that…"
They went to the old lady's house. Kanata was still carrying her. The old lady's house was medium-sized but elegant. She has plants growing in her own garden. Beautiful flowers filled the place. "Wow! This place is wonderful!" Miyu exclaimed in amazement. "Thank you…" the lady said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I am Keikyoku. And you are?"
"I am Miyu"
"I am Kanata"
"Well then, Kanata you can lay Miyu there" she said pointing at the classy sofa. He did what the old lady instructed. Keikyoku went to the restroom where the first-aid kit was. There was silence while the old lady had gone. Then, Keikyoku returned. "Sorry to keep you waiting but I need to go to the store to buy the ointment. Will you be okay if I leave you for awhile?" she asked. "Uh… okay" Kanata said.
Silence filled the place. There are a lot of things going on their heads. Finally, Miyu broke the deafening quietness, "Anou… Kanata… Come to think of it, we are in planet Otto. Don't you think Ruu is somewhere out there?" Kanata nodded. "I was thinking of the same thing too"
Silence.
"Sigh… I really want to see Ruu, his parents and Wannya. After that, I want to go back to Earth", she said.
"Yeah… maybe they'll suspect something while we're gone", he added. "Especially Hanakomachi"
As he mentioned Hanakomachi, chills came down to his spine. He imagines if Chris will find out that they were together, the whole world will be destroyed. Miyu laughed at him. "What's the matter?" he asked.
"You look stupid!" she said, "What's with the face?"
"Nothing", he said, traces of embarrassment obvious on his face.
"I don't believe you…"
"Then don't" he said kind of pissed off.
"Fine! I was just wondering if you've got any problems…"
"I don't have any…"
She looked at him, studying his face. "Now what?" he asked, his face turned crimson. "It looks like you have a fever… you're turning red…" she said. But WRONG! He was blushing madly.
She checked his temperature. "Well, you're okay… You don't have any fever" she announced.
Then, the old lady came back from the shop. "Sorry it took a long time" she apologized. "It's okay" Miyu said, flashing a smile. The woman quickly removed the ointment cap and squeezed the content. She rubbed it on the infected area. "Thank you Keikyoku-san. It doesn't hurt that much now" she thanked her. "Try to walk now…" the lady instructed. Miyu stood up without anyone's help and to her surprise, she stood up.
"Arigato gozaimasu!" Miyu said. She was amazed how wonderfully advanced the science and technology of planet Otto is.
"But we still have a problem… how are we going to get back to Earth?" Kanata said cutting off Miyu's amazement. "Oh yeah…" Miyu sighed, "I want to go back home. Maybe mom or dad is going to worry about me"
"I promised Santa that I will go to the convention tomorrow…" he said.
Keikyoku was observing the two of them. "You know… you look very familiar. You look like Ruu's parents"
"Ruu?!" they both exclaimed.
"Yes… Ruu. The baby that was sucked by the dimensional chasm to planet Earth…" she described.
"Where is Ruu?" Miyu asked.
"He's in his house in the next city." The old woman said, "Why do you ask? Are you the ones who took care of Ruu on Earth?"
They both nodded. "Honto!? Impossible… I'm meeting the most famous earthlings in the whole world!" the woman exclaimed. "Shhh… Don't tell anyone else. We don't want to be the talk of the town" Kanata said, hushing the woman. Keikyoku nodded quietly.
"Do you want to see Ruu?" asked Keikyoku.
"Of course! We would love to." Miyu immediately answered.
"You can come with me tomorrow. I'm going there to check on my inn" informed the lady.
"Okay… at last, my wish is coming true…" Miyu mumbled.
Then, Kanata's stomach protested. He was embarrassed because the old woman and Miyu heard it. "We need to cook our lunch. It looks like you deserve my specialty. After all, you are special guests that come once in a lifetime" Keikyoku said with a smile. The old woman cooked lunch while Miyu looked at the picture albums in the cabinet.
She browsed the pictures and then a picture had fallen down. "What is this?" the curious girl asked herself as she picked it up. She turned it and saw a picture of a teenage girl with shoulder length blond hair and purple eyes. With her is a handsome young man with jet black hair and crimson eyes. She wonders who they may be.
"Miyu! Kanata! Lunch is served!" Keikyoku announced.
"Itadakimasu!" they all say and dig in. Miyu looks at the delicious food. She eats them and feels very happy. "Wow! You cook good food Keikyoku-san" Miyu said. "Thank you…" the old lady said, smiling at her. Suddenly, Miyu remembers the picture she saw awhile ago. After they ate, Miyu asked her, "May I ask who these are" and then, she shows her the picture. The woman gasped, "Oh my! Where did you find this?"
"It fell down from the picture album" she said.
"Oh my! I've been looking for this for five years. It is very memorable to me" she said to Miyu.
"Why?"
"This is the picture of me and my husband. When my husband passed away two years ago, the picture disappeared as well. I searched for it and I am really stupid because I didn't even look at the picture album that you have just seen." Keikyoku said.
"When was this taken?" the curious girl asked.
"About 30 years ago…" the woman answered.
'Whoa… that really is old but it isn't in black and white' Miyu thought, 'Oh yeah… it is planet Otto so that isn't unusual here.'
"You're really beautiful and your husband is handsome too" Miyu commented.
Keikyoku looks at the picture and she was thinking deeply. Then, the woman asked, "Do you want to look around the town?"
"Sure! I want to see how the town in Planet Otto looks like" Miyu replied.
"So… Let's go!" the woman said excitedly.
She dragged Kanata and Miyu out of the house. She toured them around and then they ended their tour at the cliff. The cliff overlooks the vast seas. It was really beautiful. "This is really beautiful!" Miyu exclaimed.
"You know… this is the place where I first met my husband?" the woman said.
"Really?"
"Yes. This is also the place where he proposed his love to me… and… the last place I saw him alive", the woman said with a sad smile.
"Oh… I'm sorry." Miyu apologetically said. "No. It's okay. You didn't make me say that" the old woman said,
"Let's go home after we watch the Hidai to set"
"Hidai?"
"It's like the 'sun' in your place"
They watched the 'Hidai' to set. It was really beautiful. .. Like the sun indeed.
"Come now… let's eat dinner at my favorite restaurant." The old woman said. She led the way. While they were walking, they were thinking of home.
Meanwhile, on Earth…
Ring, ring, ring!
The telephone is ringing… and then stopped.
"Miyu and Kanata won't answer the phone" Miki said to her husband.
"Sigh… maybe they're out with their friends" Yuu concluded.
"Yeah… Our little Miyu is really growing up. I wish we had seen her grow up from a toddler to a teenager but our work hinders it" Miki said sadly. "Well honey… it is okay because even though we aren't there, she is a well-rounded person" Yuu said. "But I hope she doesn't give Kanata any headaches" Miki said jokingly. "Of course she won't" he said with a big reassuring smile.
'I hope she's alright…' her parents thought. Then, they went to sleep.
Back to Planet Otto…
"Itadakimasu!"
They ate their dinner in a fancy restaurant. "Arigato gozaimasu for the food and for entertaining us." Kanata said. "It's okay! I haven't treated someone for years…" "Why?" Miyu asked. Then, Keikyoku narrated, "I have a son named Miko. He is about your age now and he looks like Kanata but he has jet black hair and purple eyes. He was living with us until he decided to study in the city. In that city, we established a hotel. He sometimes mans the hotel when I am away. When he was still with us, I can still remember that he always orders the one Kanata is eating right now. It is his favorite dish"
Then, Keikyoku smiles. "This one?" Kanata asks. "Yes. It's his favorite." Keikyoku reassured.
"He has a good sense of taste" says Kanata, "This tastes like pumpkin"
"Your head is always filled with pumpkin" Miyu commented.
"Of course… they are my favorite"
"Well… I can't do anything with you and pumpkins…" Miyu sighed.
"You too, Miyu, reminded me of his childhood friend." Keikyoku added. "Honto?" Miyu uttered, 'Everything seems to remind you of something…' she then thought.
"She's also beautiful like you… The only thing is her eyes are grayish. Your behavior is also similar" the woman said.
After they have eaten, they quickly went home. Miyu took a bath first while Kanata was browsing the books they have around the house. Keikyoku was preparing the things she needs for the next day. Then, Miyu came out of the bathroom. She asked the old woman, "Where will I sleep?"
"You can sleep in either of the rooms" Keikyoku replied. Miyu thanked the woman with a big warm smile and went to the guest room.
She jumped into the bed as soon as she closed the door. She looked at the ceiling and thought about the things she just went through… the chasm, the fact that's she's in Planet Otto… and the thought of having special feelings for Kanata…
'Miyu! What the heck are you thinking?! Kanata?? Hn… It's impossible… Give up' the voice in her head shouted.
She stopped thinking when she saw a weird-looking toy by her side. "Kawaii! It's a cute little chick." She played with it until someone opened the door. "Kanata!" she gasped as he saw the brown-haired boy open the door and hid the toy at her back. He raised his eyebrow and said, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing…" she said with a forced smile plastered on her face and she waves her hands which mean that she's denying it. He just rolled his eyes and told himself, 'She's acting bizarre now.'
"Well then, whatever your business is, I'm going to sleep now. Good night" he said.
"Good night" Miyu said. Kanata shut the door quietly. 'This sure is a tiring yet wonderful day!' she thought and drifted to sleep.
