Chapter 3

"Shiori... SHIORI!"

Yoshimori could only shout and run to her. Fortunately, Gen has already kill the Ayakashi so no one else could get hurt. Still... Someone did... "Shiori! Shiori! Wake up, please!" Tokine just stood there with a shocked face while Yoshimori could only shout, hoping Shiori could open her eyes. But she couldn't hear a thing. There's blood all over flowing from her right arm. It's just like back then. The darkness he has seen, he's seing it again... "SHIORI!"

01.07 A.M.

It was morning, and Shiori hasn't open her eyes. It was very fortunate that she made it with Shuji's and Shigemori's help. Right now, she's sleeping peacefully. Yoshimori's sitting in her room, leaning to the wall. He can only see her sleeping face while rememberin what happened years ago. Thankgodness... Thankgodness she... They're alive...

He kept thinking, until was interupt by someone who opened the door quietly. "Yoshimori" His father whispered "I think you should go to bed. It's this late." he suggest. "No... I wanna stay here." he replied. "... Well then, atleast let me get you blanket. I don't want you to catch a cold." "Alright".

02.01 A.M.

"..." I can't believe that... The Shiori I know could be like this. I always remembered, she's always...

Flashback

7 years ago at Shinomori, a Shin'yūchi just like Karasumori. But It doesn't draw that many of Ayakashi's.

"Shige-jii, why are we here?" Asked the little Yoshimori. "We're here to see an old friend of mine." He answered. "Then, why did I have to come?" He asked again. "Well, the thing is, I want you to meet his daughter. She's 2 years older thought." He explained. The same age as Tokine, then. "Ah, we're here!" "! Wow! It's huge!" "Yes, well he's really rich, but a nice guy." His grandfather told him.

Then, the 2 of them saw a man who coincidently opened the gate. "Ohh, Shigemori-sama! Long time no see!" "Ah, it really has been, huh, Shiro-san?" "I was about to go shopping with my daughter before you come, you see." He explained with a smile. "Oh, is that her then?" Looking at the girl beside her father. "Yes, this is my daughter, Shiori. She's a Kekkaishi just like me. Wow, she's cute... B, but, Tokine is cuter! M, maybe... Yoshimori said in his mind while Shiori just looking at him. And is that your grandson?" The man asked. "Yes, this is Yoshimori, Shuji and Sumiko's daughter." "Ohh I see. Okay then, why don't we all go inside." He suggeted. Then they all got into the Takeda household.

About 10 minutes later.

"Hey. You're Yoshimori-kun, right?" She asked instantly. "Ye, yeah! Ta, Takeda-san..." He answer while shying. "Hey, don't call me by my family name. Why don't you just call me Shiori? I'm aready calling you Yoshimori-kun!" She said. "Ah, umm...!" I'm really not used to calling other girls beside Tokine by their first name...-_-'' "Shi, Shiori...-san...?" Waiting for a reply. "... Well, not satisfied with the "-San", but it'll do! Nice to meet you, Yoshimori-kun!" Smiling while handing her hand, waiting for a shake. "R, right! Shiori-san!" He shake her hand and smiled back.

"... By the way, what's Shige-jii talking about with your dad, Shiori-san?" He asked. "Sumimura-sama you meant? Well... Since my father once told me, I guess it's about..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~0oo0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, at the guest room, Shigemori and Shiro were chatting while looking at Yoshimori ans Shiori who're chatting in the yard too. "So, Shiro-san. What do you think of my grandson?" Shigemori asked. "Hmm? I think he's a good boy. Look, Shiori's already like him. We could see by seing her cheerful smile." Said Shiro smiling. "But Yoshimori is kind of a crybaby." "Hahaha, Shiori can handle that. She's like a sister to all boy's under her age." he said while laughing.

"... So it's alright for him to be your daughter's fiancee?" "That's what you want to talk by coming here, right? I think they're a perfect match. But..." "But...?" Shigemori waited for an answer. "They're still just kids. Sooner or later, they might find other person who they love and not each other." Shiro explained. "... You're right. For the time being, just let the two of them be fiancee's" "Yeah... Thought it's too early for them." Then, they just continue their chat.

Near the pond.

"Ehhh! Us! Fiancee's! But we've only just met!" Yoshimori's shocked. "It's alright, I don't thinks it's that serious because we're still little kids. But when we grow up, I don't know." She explained. "Uhh..." Yoshimori's just sweating while Shiori's looking at him. "... Yoshimori-kun?" She started. With a little trembled voice, he said "wh, what is it? Shiori-san?" "You're in love with someone, aren't you?" "Wha, what! No, I'm...!" "Hahha i'm only kidding Yoshimori-kun! Kidding!" She said while laughing. "Uggh...!" Yoshimori shy and frustrated. But still, I really want to know who the girl is.SHiori wondered in her mind.

Flashback End.

After that, Shige-jii and I went home. Well, that's not the last time I saw her. Shige-jii sometime's brought me to Shinomori to play while helping her exterminate Ayakashi's.

"... Ohh, Shiori-san..." Wake up, will you? We've only just met after a long time and I really didn't expect you on this position... Yoshimori just kept thinking. His bang's was covering his face. It's heard like he was crying. It was cold that night... But then, a sudden voice stopped his tears.

"U, uhh...? Yoshimori...-kun...?" It was Shiori's voice. "...!" Shiori-san!"

Finally, she opened her eyes.
