Alot of things and events that i could write came into my mind. But when i faced the monitor, I had hard time expressing myself in english. And 'lol reality', my close friend was really good in it so I asked for help. We started to talk about this fiction and everything. Thank you for the edit and Ideas! (bow to lol reality)

Chapter 3: Call I

Caira's POV

I held on to my cup of not-so-hot-chocolate. "Mizu, can you make another one for me?"

"Okay."

As her master, I knew everything about Mizu. And this is my first time to see her face so downcast. She was kind and cheerful. But somehow I could see that something was deeply bothering her. The shining brown eyes were gone. Is it because of that kid? I'm quite worried about that girl too, but..

Getting up from the chair, I walked over to the kitchen to cheer up the young girl. "What's the matter? She won't die, so you don't have to worry that much." I raised my hand to pet her hair and realized that the top of her head almost reached my nose. Didn't know she was this short.. Well, she's still young. 16.. Still short.

"I wonder where she's from. And her wounds.. What could have happened? It's just that i really pity that girl- she even lost her memories."

"Your worries won't help anything, all we can do right now is help her recover and-"

"I know. That is why.." Cutting my sentence short, she stared on the wooden floor letting her head hang low.

I didn't know how to respond to her. I just let her down even more. What kind of master am I? I feel utterly pathetic. My eyes just stared at the poor girl standing in front of me. "I think I'll have a look at the kid. She might go insane again or.. Anyway, hot choco."

"Oh yeah, I forgot. I'll boil the water again."

It was better for me to not speak when I can't do anything. "Sure." I turned around and headed to the room where the mysterious girl was sleeping. The noise of the wooden floor resounded throughout the living room with each step I made. As I got to my destination, I could hear a small yet rough voice struggling. Without a second thought, my hand reached out for the door knob and opened the wooden door as fast as I could.

'Another nightmare?'

Setsuna's POV

- Ring -

Dark. Again. Now I'm getting used to this..

- Ring -

What's this noise..

- Ring -

It's small. Not that far away.. As if it's calling for something..

- Ring -

Where is this sound coming from..

"Wake up."

Wake up. That's right. I have to wake up. I need to follow this.. Whatever this is. It's calling out for ME. Get. UP.

- Ring -

"Hey kid, wake up. Open your eyes."

Caira-san's voice.. I can't-

My body jerked up as something cold splashed on my face. What the- sitting on the bed I could feel something dripping from all over my face and hair. Water..?

"Sorry for that. Are you okay? You're freaking me out." I turned my head to meet the owner of the voice. She was standing beside me holding an empty glass. Her worrying face made my chest heavy.

"Caira-san.. I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble.."

I've been such a nuisance to them.. All I've done so far was eat, sleep, go crazy and worry them sick. How will I be able to pay them back for what they have done for me?

"Nah- Just don't make us worry too much so get up already."

- Ring -

Again.. This sound.. I have to go..

- Ring -

I jumped out of the bed and ran out the room and past the front door as fast as my legs could take me. I heard Caira-san shouting behind me but I knew there was something more important calling out for me. Drawing me. I felt my legs starting to ache and cramp but somehow I was able to ignore it. It's as if the minor pain in my legs was somehow familiar. Like I was used to it. Then all of a sudden, the pain was gone. I could feel my muscles begin to relax, and with each step I ran, my pace was getting steadier and faster. Caira-san's voice began to fade and the ringing in my head grew even louder as I reached the edge of the forest.
