Between Hikito and the Author
Hikito: NANI! Xiao, WHY! Why did you make me lose my mother?
Xiao: Not my problem … I'm just going according to what I planned out. Stop being a whiner Hikito-kun. I'll bring her back … -I think-
Hikito: YOU THINK! NOOOOOOOOOO!
Xiao: -clears throat- Well, time to get back to the story … -runs away from Hikito-
Chapter Two
"MOTHER, where are you?" Hikito cried out desperately. No answer.
Hikito looked around himself frantically. Where could his mother have suddenly disappeared to? Why did she disappear? So many questions raced through Hikito's mind as he desperately searched for his mother.
"Mother," Hikito said, beginning to sob, "Where are you?"
The sun set in a brilliant show of purple, yellow, and orange and then the moon and stars came and shone upon the lone boy without his mother. Tears stained Hikito's cheek as he cried continuously. What was he going to do?
"Mother, why did you have to disappear? You promised me that you'd forever be by my side!" Hikito whispered.
"Hikito," said a soft, soothing voice from the shadows.
Hikito looked up and gulped. He stopped crying and slowly stood up.
"Who's there?" Hikito said.
"Hikito, it is me; the girl in the sky," the voice replied.
"Where's my mother?" Hikito blurted out, his voice harder then he intended it to be.
"Your mother is in grave danger, Hikito. You must save her before anything happens. I shall try to be your guide as much as possible but you must find someone to accompany you to the little town that has the ruins of Duran. Hurry, Hikito, for you have little time before it is too late," the girl said.
"What's your name? Why is my mother in grave danger? Who is behind this? Who do I find to accompany me? Where are the ruins of Duran?" Hikito squeaked.
"My name is Misuzu and your mother is in grave danger because of something from the past. I do not know who is behind this and the one that will accompany you is someone that you have met before in the past. As for where the ruins are, you will have to find that out yourself," Misuzu replied softly.
"But I …" Hikito said quietly. Misuzu never replied, only a soft, gentle, and quiet wind passed him.
"Misuzu, are you still there?" Hikito said.
"Misuzu … don't leave me!" Hikito pleaded.
No answer. Misuzu had gone.
"Misuzu … why is that name so familiar? I forgot where I heard that name before … forget that, I MUST find a way to save my mother!" Hikito said as he ran off, engulfed by the darkness.
