Hi, umm, yeah from the amount of votes for horror, I'm turning this into a scary story. Yeah it's not gonna' be that scary but alas, it will be somewhat scary, I think.
Chapter Three
P.O.V. of Honako.
Taro is so stupid. Nothing could have followed us. At least I hopeā¦
That bone-headed boy, Cooro, interrupted my thoughts. "Taro, what happened now?"
"I, I just thought I was in a house but it's not there anymore. I was positive I saw it, but you guys won't believe me." He sniffed.
I patted his back, "don't worry, Taro, nothing's gonna' be wrong. Do you want to talk about it alone with me?"
He nodded, "yeah, that would help."
"Do you want us to leave?" Nana asked, trying to be helpful.
"You don't have to leave. It might sound weird, but we can talk through our minds" Taro pointed out, which I think was a mistake.
The she-boy thought that was cool, "wow, can you really do that?"
"look what you did now, Taro, their gonna' think we're weird." I thought.
"Well excuse me! It's good they know." Taro answered.
After that talk with Taro, I answered his question, "yes. We had a mini conversation right before I answered." I glared at my brother, "and I think it was a mistake he told you about it." I directed my words to his face.
Cooro asked the most stupid question that anyone could ask now, "Can I try?"
I sighed, "You can't try it out because only me and him can do it. "This is why I didn't want them to know."
Taro didn't answer.
Cooro shook his head, "not directly just like I say something in your ear and Taro will say what I said, through you."
"Fine if it will make you drop the subject." I moaned.
Cooro leaned against me and whispered, "Apples are delicious."
"Taro, he wants you to say 'apples are delicious'."
"'Kay!" "Apples are delicious!" he said smiling.
Cooro gasped, "That's it! Wow-"
"You said you'd drop the subject, so drop it!" I exclaimed.
Nana yawned, "let's go to bed. I'm sleepy. Besides it's really dark, I can barley see everyone's faces.
Everyone agreed, except me. We all got on the ground and slept, well not all of us. Humph, stupid forest. "hey Taro, wanna' talk now?"
"Yeah I do."
"What exactly happened? Don't cut information."
"You and Nana were fighting and so I looked around, and saw a house. I entered the house, which looked normal, except there was a big piece of meat. I took a bite but spat it out 'cause it was cold and hard. Then I came back and took you over to where it was, but it wasn't there anymore. It disappeared."
"You sure that's what happened? This is important, Taro."
"Yes, I wouldn't lie to you sister!"
"We're in trouble, Taro. He's here! In this world, he's going to hurt us again!"
"How do you know that, don't lie 'cause your scaring me!"
"Meat, he was a butcher, remember! And if he's followed us that would mean that she did too!"
"Sis, stop scaring me! Their not here! We got away from them! They can't be here! They couldn't have followed us to a new world!"
"I can check my mark to see if he's here." I pushed my sleeve down to my elbow. There was a black tattoo on my forearm shaped like a cross with flowers growing out of it. The marking was glowing red like blood. "He's here and close. Hold on, Taro, open your mouth!"
He did what I said to and in his mouth were bits of meat, red meat. "Hold on Taro, I'm gonna' take this stuff out." I reached into his mouth and picked some of the meat out of his mouth. Disgusting, I said to myself. "You're going to need to pick the rest out of your teeth, Taro."
"Okay sister. Thanks for testing me, I probably wouldn't of lived through the night with out your help. Sis, I'm now convinced that their here. Should we leave these people so they don't get hurt?"
"No, if we do we won't make it out of the forest alive, once we get into town, we can split up. Not now." I looked up to the pitch-black sky and said to myself, why, why did they get drunk? Why can't we live a normal life, father? Why?
My gosh, that took a good hour or so. Who are the people Honako speaks of? How can they communicate like that? Your answers probably won't be answered in the next chapter! HAPPY EASTER!
