CHAPTER 21

- OUTSIDE -

The next day...

"Proceed..."

Kikyo ordered impatiently while she sat on her favorite hang out, looking at the sweat shirt she had just done knitting.

"What is your order Madame?" Tsubone gave her a bow.

"So did Dad just tell the new babysitter to send out Illumi for a walk today...?" She lifted a brow.

"Yes Madame." Tsubone nodded. "Master Zeno has promised Young Master a ride on a Nen Dragon the moment he accomplishes his first mission as a reward. The Young Master succesufully accomplished it two days ago and he was supposedly be sent out today but unfortunately Master Zeno and Master Silva are both preoccupied and did not have enough time so to make up for it, they just sent him out for a walk with the babysitter."

"And they just did that without consulting me, without MY permission." Kikyo took a deep breath as apparently she was trying to keep herself calm. She was actually enraged and she felt like she was about to explode.

"How could they disrespect me like this... Silva, and Dad..." She gritted her teeth as she muttered under her breath, clenching the sweatshirt she just made. "THEY COULD'VE ASKED ME INSTEAD! NOT THAT HELL OF A PEASANT!"

"Acccording to Master Silva, you needed to stay home for the safety of the second Young Master and you. He adviced to have you stay here so to not to stress you out and let the babysitter take care of the Young Master."

"Not to stress me out? That's what he's exactly doing right now! I am extremely stressed to know that my beloved child is out there ALONE with a stranger that can dispose of him anytime...!"

"I am sorry Madame..."

"Have they left yet?" She asked as she started to attach something into the sweatshirt's collar.

"Apparently not, Madame."

She folded the sweatshirt and handed it to Tsubone. "Take this."

Tsubone bowed before receiving the sweatshirt.

"I wanted you to send this to Illumi and make him wear it before they leave. RIGHT-NOW!"

"Yes Madame..."

"BEHOOOOLD!" I spread my arms around to show him the view... "This is what we call a THEME PARK! Tadaaaa!" I wiggled my hands, trying to cheer him up.

We stood in the middle of different rides, different attractions, food stalls and more. The place looked so lively and it was pretty crowded with a lot of children, carrying ballons, cotton candy, and stuffed animals.

"In here, you will see A LOT OF ATTRACTIONS! Try a lot of rides, buy different souvenirs, play different games, view galleries and museums, watch performances and get to know a lot of people!"

He was staring at nowhere with a dissatisfied face... He looks like he wasn't too happy about it.

"Okay, maybe we can scratch that 'getting to know a lot of people' part..." Neither I didn't like that idea, like why did I even include mentioning it?

He still stood there without budging a bit.

"What's with the sad face?" I sat down to pinch and stretch his cheeks to force a grin. "You should look happy! Your gramps finally sent you out for a walk!"

He just pouted and shifted his eyes to the ground.

"OOOOH! I GET IT! You didnt like your new sweatshirt! HAHAHAHAHA!" As far as I could remember, I saw Mom knitting that sweatshirt on my first day here in the past. I didnt know it was actually for him.

"Gramps promised me he would tour me around the city on a Nen Dragon if I accomplish my first mission succesfully..."

Oh... Okay. I get it now. He probably feels disappointed because he looked forward to it. I would even probably throw a fit if I was in his place!

I admittedly think sending him out to a theme park is a horrible idea. I have no single idea where to bring him! If it'd be Alluka, she would surely enjoy this. But I am not too sure about this fella. Gramps said 'send him out' so I just did as I was told! But I'm basically stumped on where!?

"Ah!" I exclaimed and dragged him along with me. "Just stay here!" I held him in the wrist while I went to a food cart to buy some cotton candy.

"HERE!" I handed it to him over. "Cotton-candy!" He looked back at me before reluctantly taking it away from me.

"What is this? This doesn't even look edible..." He narrowed his eyes to the pink cotton-like delicacy...

"Irt IRSH erdrbl!" I got myself one and munched on it right away..."Just try it!"

"This looked like a huge, pink version of swabs that medics use to heal injuries... weird..." He slowly nibbled on it and stayed quiet for a while. "Not bad..." He shrugged.

"Sooo!" I moved along. "Which one would you like to try first?"

He squinted, trying to stretch his vision as he carefully eyed every corner to choose which one looked the most interesting...

"THAT ONE!" He briskly pointed out.

"Right away, Young Master!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" I laughed and panted at the same time... "THAT WAS FUN!"

He stifled a chuckle, still panting before he sat on one of the benches and placed the stuffed animals he won as a prize.

"WHO WOULD'VE KNOWN YOU WOULD SCARE THE SCARERS INSIDE THE HORROR HOUSE! HAHAHAHA THOSE DUMB FACES!" I blurted out. "GOOD JOB!" I thrusted a palm on him for a hi-5.

He gave me back a hi-5... "Yeah! I was disappointed about the scarers... they didnt scare me that much... so I had to do my own thing... I never knew it would scare them too Hahahaha!"

"Hahahahahaha!" I laughed along with him as well. "Oh, props to you by the way for all of those plushies...! Did you see the look on the guy's face? He was actually stunned by your dart skills! You even beat that braggart who called himself a Dart Champion! What a PHONY!"

"Well, I wasn't actually aiming to get the plushies. I just wanted to play darts and show the braggart how it really is played but I didnt know it has prizes... Oh well!" He shrugged.

"Oh and the roller coaster! Did you see their faces when the ride finally did the drop? WE SHOULDVE BOUGHT A CAMERA WITH US!"

"Oh! Now that you mentioned..." He was trying to pull out some stuff from his pockets and he handed it to me over. "There were snapshots of us given to me when we got off the ride... You were too busy choking your guts back in so I took them instead..."

"HEY! I WASN'T NAUSEOUS!" I yelled back and tried to check those photos and... NEVER MIND. I think I gotta get rid of these RIGHT AWAY!

"HEEEEEY!" He jumped up to take the photos away from me.

"TOO LATE!" I just swished my hand to the other side and used my height as an advantage ripping the photos into several tiny pieces.

He furrowed his brows at me angrily for some seconds before turning his back and shrugged. I stuck my tounge out... L-O-S-E-R!

"Hold on..." He turned to face me again and gave me a wary look. "Did you just feel that?"

I somehow admire his senses. I also just sensed something just now. No. It was actually following us since not long ago. I am not certain where it is. But there really was someone following us. It was faint but I would soon find it out.

"Hm?" I looked at him confused, trying to play dumb. "Where? 'Feel' what?"

"It feels like someone's following us..."

"Really?" I raised a brow at him skeptically...

"Yeah... I can't believe you did not sense it..."

"And you're trying to tell me that you're better than me now...?" I taunted him, crossing my arms.

"No! I really sensed someone! It was..."

"Maybe you're just hungry!" I interrupted him. "Let's just go get some dinner!" I pushed his back to get him to start moving.

"But..."

"I am getting hungry from following you around you know?! It's not an easy task!"

8:00 in the evening.

"Are you not tired yet? I can just carry you on my back till we make it to the train station... Or we can call to the mansion to get us fetched?"

"Nah..." He carried the stuffed animals along with him, gripping them tight.

We took a short cut on a grassy lot heading to the train station. We walked under the bright silver moon, with trees surrounding the whole area.

"Are you sure we're taking the right path?" He asked me confused.

"Yeah..." I nodded without looking back at him.

I actually took this path because I was luring the snitch. It carried on following us up to here. I am pretty sure that his target was Illumi. I grabbed his little hand tight as I stood on my tracks, looking around the area carefully. It was a very weak one. But better be cautious still.

Illumi gave me a puzzled look for a while that slowly changed into an expression of wariness, probably because he finally noticed the snitch was starting to approach us nearer and nearer from the shadows.

"Alright, show's over!" I screamed out, pulling Illumi closer to me. "Show your ugly face and battle me head-on, fucking coward...!"
