Chapter 7: WHAT! HE LIKES ME!
Berry sighed and rested her head in the soft grassy ground.
"The stars look beautiful today, don't they Kai?"
Kai, who was standing at the edge of a tree, looked up at the sky and smirked.
"Yes, they do,"
"It's been so long since I relaxed though I am only 13, I am always rushing here and there like there's no tomorrow,"
"It is your duty," Kai said
"I know and that's why I am doing it in the first place… I can't just see people die," Berry said
She was lying on the ground, staring at the night sky with her hands behind her head. She was on a grassy mountain and relaxing as her senses did not tell her that there was any trouble.
"I feel something…"Kai said
Berry sat up and looked at Kai.
"What?" she asked.
"I feel like someone is watching us…"
Berry got up at once, alerted.
"Are you sure?"
"I don't know, maybe I am just feeling that… I don't really trust my feelings…" Kai said and looked around.
Berry sighed.
"Let's go, I sense something going on in the otaku village… maybe there's some trouble there," Kai said after a minute pause.
Berry nodded and started walking.
"Goldva, I just saw a girl walking towards a star century," Silva said.
Goldva, who was sitting on the floor and meditating, opened his eyes slowly and looked at Silva.
"Really?"
"Yeah, she said she was a shaman and she walked to Patch village, how can that be possible? That was too fast, even Hao isn't here…" Silva said and trailed of.
There was a minute silence.
"Does she look suspicious? Evil?"
"I don't know but she was lost in thought,"
"She might be related to Hao, keep a close eye on her, if you find her that is," Goldva said.
"Should I go to the star century to look for her?" Silva asked
"No, that's too dangerous, just wait and spy on her. Just see that if she does anything wrong or troublesome." Goldva said
Silva nodded, turned and was about to walk out of the door when Goldva shouted
"AND BRING ME A CUP OF COFEE, LOW SUGAR!!!"
Silva gritted his teeth.
Yoh stared at the whitewashed ceiling, he pulled the covers up and was about to go to sleep when a small tap on the window made him sit up.
"Hey Yoh! Want to go out for a walk?"
Yoh blinked at the good natured, strange girl, girl named Anna. He smirked, Of course not, it can't be her. Must be someone who is trying to fool me.
"No thanks get lost," Yoh murmured
"WHAT!!!? YOH ASAKURA…!" Anna began but she was interrupted harshly by a Yoh.
"I SAID GET LOST!!! I AM REALLY VERY TIRED AND I WANT YOU TO GO AWAY!!!"
Anna blinked and vanished.
Yoh laughed.
"That was fun, Amidamaru; I never thought it would feel so great to boss Anna around,"
"Yeah, but that is not going to happen, ever," Amidamaru said
Outside the window, the orange haired girl cursed under her breath.
"How did he know that it was a ghost? Stupid Enra, I knew she was up to no good after all," Macchi muttered as she got up.
"Maybe I should try someone else, someone more… desirable," Macchi muttered to herself and then she saw someone come out of the dojo and sit on a rock by the pond. Someone with spiky purple hair…
Macchi smirked.
Berry sat on the tree, looking at the pond blankly as she didn't find any kind of trouble. Kai was in her medallion for he wasn't needed at that time.
She saw Ren walking out of the dojo, wearing no shirt but Chinese-style trousers. Berry blushed, slightly as Ren made his way towards a rock and sit down.
Berry shook her head. It was wrong to spy…
Macchi raised the cigarette like device and muttered as she pointed it towards Ren.
"Become his desire, his wish,"
Enra turned into a fog and then transformed into a black haired girl.
Macchi blinked.
A girl? Ren actually likes a girl?????!
Macchi ordered Enra to go and talk to Ren.
Berry walked towards Ren and sat down on the rock with Ren. She looked at him and Ren stared back, confused and… his face red.
"Hello Ren, how are you?"
Ren gulped and laughed nervously. They were sitting together on one rock, a bit too close, actually.
"Er… I am fine, what are you doing here?" Ren asked, after a minute pause.
"Me? Oh let's forget that… let's concentrate on you," Berry said, smirking and leaned towards Ren who went red and leaned backwards a bit. He gulped and then frowned.
Berry looked, shocked, bewildered, and scared. She gulped, as drops of precipitation ran down her forehead, her hands covered her mouth, her face redder than anything. He likes me?! I am his desire?! Oh god, what the world's coming to? And I am not that flirty! Actually I am not a flirt at all! That hallucination! This is so… embarrassing.
Berry watched, Enra flirting with Ren, who was red, really red. But when she leaned towards him, Ren forgot his nervousness and frowned, finally coming to his senses. He got up, hurriedly and took out his sword which was glowing golden because of Bason.
"You are so not Berry, you are a ghost!" Ren said and except of attacking the suddenly startled Enra who was Berry, he turned towards a bush and sliced the branches, furiously. Macchi was crouched under the bush, shock on her face.
"Er, hello." she said when she found a very Ren standing on top of her.
"Nice night right?" Macchi said, nervously and scared, dropping the cigarette device.
"NOBODY'S DARE TO MESS UP WITH MY FEELINGS! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU! HOW DARE YOU!!!?" Ren shouted as he raised his sword and attacked Macchi, who shifted and the attack missed her by millimeters. Instead, the attack, hit the tree and a few branches rained on top of Macchi who put her hands on top of her orange head.
"I am sorry!" Macchi shouted, looking up at Ren who raised his sword to attack again, flying a thick layer of dust. Macchi ran away as the dust covered the place for a while.
When the dust settled down, Ren was again ready to attack but when he saw Macchi gone, he dropped his sword and his expression eased. His heart was in pain and he sighed.
I wish that was real… but it can never be… it can never be… I should get out of fantasies…
Ren sighed and bent down pick up the cigarette device and looked at it. Before he could go into extra investigation, somebody tapped him on the shoulder. Ren, thinking it was Yoh or Horro who had seen everything and was there to tease him, turned and without seeing who it was, shouted:
"WHAT DO YOU WANT!!!?"
"Er, hello…" Berry said, her heart flipping at the shout. He hates me after all.
"Oh Berry, its you… err hi!" Ren said, going red as he remembered the last events.
Berry stood their staring at his golden eyes, a confused expression on her face. They were only a few feet apart.
"I want you to give me that…it doesn't belong to you neither it did to that girl who you almost killed," Berry said as she asked for Enra.
Ren blinked.
"You were spying on me?" Ren asked, wishing he hadn't said that.
"No… I just saw you hit Macchi, please give me Enra and I should get going," Berry said, blankly.
Ren gave the cigarette device to Berry and then said.
"What are you going to do with it?" Ren asked
"I am going to return it to its real owner,"
"Who is the real owner?"
"Sharona from Lily 5,"
"Why?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why are you going to return it to her?"
"It is the right thing to do,"
"But… I don't get it… is it your job to like that? You are always helping people, rushing here and there, where do you get so much furyoku? Why do you help people like that? They haven't done anything for you," Ren said, suspiciously.
Berry shifted uncomfortable and turned her back towards Ren. After a minute she started walking again.
"It was nice talking to you, Ren," Berry said, staring at her worn out sneakers.
Ren hurried over and grabbed her hand, making her stop. Berry looked at Ren, confused.
"Berry, what's up with you? Why do you act like this? Why are you always emotion-less? I can understand… I know I can… tell me, why do you save people like that? Where did you get this amount of furyoku?" Ren asked, now staring at Berry's bright blue eyes.
Berry was surprised at what Ren said but thanks to her stupid past and suffering; she shook her head and pulled away her hand from Ren's. Then she looked coldly at Ren and said in a cold straight voice:
"That is not your business and why are you so concerned about me? You shouldn't be because… I don't trust you, I don't trust anyone,"
Berry turned and disappeared into the trees, leaving Ren alone and shocked.
Hao sat on the tree, looking at the whole drama, feeling shocked and jealous. He was keeping a close eye on Berry and thanks to his long experience of life; he was successful as not being seen.
Hao's eyes turned cold when Ren grabbed Berry's hand. Hao was angry, furious…
How dare Ren even think about my girl? How dare he!? I can't let anyone be in my plan, in my plan of destroying the humans and forcing Berry to give out all her furyoku to me. I can't let anyone get between me and Berry when I will force Berry to be my shaman queen. I can't afford anyone especially some one like Ren to butt into this. I can't let Berry have feelings for him or anyone else. Ren shouldn't have done that but now he is going to suffer…
Hao got up and said to himself in anger:
"Berry is mine… and she will always be mine, she belongs to no one except me…"
