Chapter 6
More than Friends
The two walked off to the Isle of Hags to see Bottles. Kazooie stared admirably at the bear. His eyes shined at the sun; gleaming across. Her lime eyes reflected upon him. She held on his hand, tightly.
"What's wrong, scared," Banjo asked.
Kaz shook her head and covered her face from him; knowing that she was blushing from the sight of his face.
"Oh, you're turning pink," he said.
Shyly she nodded.
"That's okay, you're with me for the first time," he sighed.
"You know, my parents are deceased, so I have no friends to keep me company at my place," he said.
Kazooie tilted her head; she never had a friend, or anybody to play with, she had her head down to the ground, no pun intended. Remembering her father never letting her outside and staying inside a tower for 13 straight years, like a captured animal.
"What's your family like?" he asked suddenly.
Thinking for a moment, and then tears fell out of her eyes. Weeping on the ground, Banjo picked her up.
"Sorry, it must be really personal," he said.
"I wish you have your voice, we could talk better," he continued.
She stopped crying and glanced and saw a mysterious animal. It was Bottles the mole.
"Hi, Banjo, who's your friend?" Bottles asked.
"Hi Bottles, this is Kazooie," he pointed out.
"Hi, the names Bottles," Bottles bowed.
Kazooie curtseyed in front of him.
"Banjo, are you cheating on your girlfriend?" Bottles asked.
"No, I still love Rin," he said.
Kazooie was surprised. Banjo had a girlfriend, and it was a girl named Rin.
"What's wrong Kazooie, you didn't know I had a girlfriend?" he asked.
She nodded furiously.
"Bottles, tell Rin, that I'm going to hang out with Kazooie here, okay?" he said.
"Okay," Bottles said.
The bear and bird left Bottles and ran toward train tracks.
Kazooie was astonished on the train tracks. In the sky there aren't any trains, but here it was true; it wasn't a myth like everyone said.
"What's wrong never been on a train?" Banjo asked.
She shook her head.
"I'll call the train, sit down, you can rest your legs," he said.
Kazooie sat down on the ground. Feeling around, the ground was hard, not like clouds whereas it's soft. Suddenly, a big black train came rushing out of the tunnel.
"Come on Kazooie here's the train," he called out.
Inside the train, Kaz leaned on the honey bear's shoulder. Banjo, patted on her wings, amazed they felt delicate and warm. Kaz kept sleeping, until Banjo woke her up.
"Kazooie," he said calmly.
Weary in her eyes, she glanced at the door, pure white snow, sparkling in front of her face. Shocked, she backed away and ended up on Banjo's chest.
"What's wrong," he asked.
She pointed at the window. He checked and saw nothing, but the snow.
"What it's just snow," he said in a weird tone.
"Oh maybe you've never been in snow before," he said.
She nodded.
