Crimson Dust: Human

/Just what happened?! Even when I went back to the Shadow continent... Clock broke out in tears the moment she saw me!/ I rub my temple, something wasn't right /Especially what Clock asked back then...DO I love the Dictator? I don't know myself... I guess I do.

I like being near him more than when I'm with anyone else. I love to hear him and everything else about him... and I hate it when he isn't there... I have no right to say otherwise, I love him/

I sigh unaudible and listen to the teachers rambles. School seemed to finish early today even though it took as long as ever. I stand up from my seat to go home like the rest when I need to cough a bit /I must have caught a cold... even though it's summer... I and my luck I guess/.

I go home and put on my headgear.

Flower runs up to me „There you are! Come with me, something weird happened to 3 o'clock!"

She grabs my arm and pulls me with her. We arrive in the town center and she points to a sitting boy with short black hair... and a tail and cat-ears.

I turn to her uncertain „Is that... what you meant...?"

She nods and I walk up to 3 o'clock. He looks up and watches me with interest.

„3 o'clock... right? You sure look different, what happened?" I wonder while I poke his nose.

He sneezes „I don't really know. I reached Level 70 and transformed in the middle of Redforest. I paid it no mind since I only realized that the ground is further away but when I entered Crimson Dust... nobody regonized me"

I think for a bit and sigh „I never heard that was possible... But congratulation at becoming Level 70! You're not that far away from me now since I'm Level 89" I suddenly get an idea „How about you fight with me? You can test out your new body"

He stands up „Sure. I will warn you, I can change back and foth between this form and my cat self"

Flower and everyone else that is here forms a circle around us. 3 o'clock jumps at me with his claw-like-nails. I evade it and use a minor fire spell. He spins around to avoid it and tries to kick me in the stomach. He attacks again with his claws and I need to block it with my staff.

„Nice try!" I swing my staff at him and he jumps into the air.

He rolls in the air and attacks me mid-flight „I could say the same!"

All bystanders have huge sweatdrops on the side of their head „They're monsters..." one mutters „Literal monsters..."
