Kino's Journey Episode 14
(キノの旅のエピソード 14)
Chapter One: The Road and Way
Part 3
"Kino, where are we headed?"
Kino didn't answer Hermes; she herself did not know where they really were going. All she knew was that they just drove straight forward, or rather where the road led them. But the sun was setting and it was getting dark; if only there was a town with a hotel nearby where they can stay for the night.
"Um, Kino? We gotta get some gas now; I'm running low on it."
Kino nodded blankly, she didn't feel like talking ever since they got lost in the middle of nowhere. She sighed. All she wanted now was to lie onto a soft, fluffy bed and sleep. But coffee would also do nice now.
Several minutes later, Kino set up camp at the side of the road. What'll I do now? Thought Kino, Hermes' low on gasoline and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere. The last time this happened, Master came and helped them. Though, that was some time ago, now she had to depend on herself when things like this happened.
Part 4
"Kino… KINO!"
Kino woke up to a start, thanks to Hermes yelling in her ear.
"What Hermes, it's two in the morning."
"No three, I've been counting. But that's not the point! The point is-"
Kino noticed before Hermes finished his sentence. Strangely enough, they were in a small inn, a nice fluffy bed, and to add to that, Hermes tank was filled to the top… The room was pretty small. The walls were lined with blue wall paper; accented with white vertical lines and white flowers printed in it.
"That's strange; my sleeping bag's all rolled up too. I wonder who did it."
"Kino, how much would they charge us later? I mean, this place looks pretty expensive…"
"Who knows, I wanna take a look outside, do you want to come?"
"Sure, so the owner won't take me as a hostage."
[*SQUEE!* My first fanfiction!! (sorry, forgot to put this in the first chapter ^-^') I know I uploaded the first chapter before, but since I had a BUNCH of mistakes, I pulled it back for revising. ^^' Btw, if you see any mistakes in the story (spelling errors, wrong character personality, unfunny jokes, chat-speak, and strange ways of speaking), be sure to tell me! ('cuz I make A LOT of mistakes XD) I'll be uploading each chapter as soon as I can! I so far have three more chapters as rough drafts, so I'll be posting them soon. Thanks for reading! Miyu~
Oh yeah, is Hermes a guy or a girl? I hadn't read the book so I don't know…]
