Ok so for those of you that have followed the story from day one i changed the wording just enough to have Usagi the exact age I want him to be when he landed on earth. Anyway enjoy this chapter.
Usagi wakes up late in the afternoon to find the bad next to him empty. Where did Misaki go? Oh yeah Misaki had to go to work today.
Usagi sighs and gets out of bed and gets dressed. "What's on the calendar for today?" He wonders aloud and walks over to the calendar and looks at the date.
Earth/Ekurana exchange lady visits today. Please be nice Usagi.
Usagi smiles at Misaki's side note for the day. He had to go back to Ekurana. A knocking on the door startles Usagi out of his thoughts.
Usagi opens the door, nobody is there. Oh yeah he's at Misaki's house. He heads over to his house across the street and spots a woman of average height with red wavy hair. Usagi knew that woman from when he landed on earth but she is older looking now.
She doesn't seem to notice Usagi who walks up behind her.
"May I help you?" He asks from directly behind her. She jumps and turns around.
"Usagi you know it's not nice to scare people." She says and straightens out her grey lab coat.
"Are you ready to go, we have a long way to travel." She says looking over Usagi who has grown quite a bit.
"That wasn't the plan, you are here to talk and give me a day here, before we leave and I refuse to leave without saying goodbye to Misaki." Usagi says getting a little pissy.
She holds up her hands. "Alright sorry, man you've actually grown quite a bit in the seven years here on earth. Anyway let's go get Misaki." She says with a smile on her face.
Usagi nods and leads the way down the road.
"So I've spoken with Misaki, and he wants to go to see you off at the end of the week. It looks like you finally broke out of your shell." The woman says with a smile.
~the woman's flashback~
She was so happy they were finally going through with the plan the human/Ekuranian, exchange! Her happiness was truly bubbling to the point where she left happiness wherever she went.
She got the call saying the spacecraft was finally landing.
She stood in the landing zone her gray lab coat blowing in the breeze, her red wavy hair swirling behind her. She watches it land 50 feet in front of her. The door slowly lowers and she walks to the ramp.
She looks up as a young boy walks down the ramp. What they sent a child?!
The young boy walks up to her and looks up. She smiles and bends over.
"Hi I'm Aikawa, the head of the exchange program." She smiles at the young boy who gives her a blank stare.
in an emotionless voice he replies. "I'm Akihiko Usami."
She visually pouts for a moment. "Can I call you Usagi?" She asks with a sweet smile. And he nods.
"Alright then Usagi would you please come with me and we can figure out where you can live and go to school." She says and offers Usagi her hand.
His violet eyes grow big and his little face shows just how upset he is. "P-please n-not school. Anything but school." He says with a shaking voice and Aikawa stops and looks at the little boy they sent.
She kneels down and pulls the boy into a hug. "Ok no school." She whispers and the boy calms down.
He follows her into a room and she tells him that she will be right back. She walks out of the room and he can hear her upset voice from down the hall.
"They sent me a child, I don't know how he lived up there, the kid was almost in tears at the mention of school. What were they thinking sending a child to a completely different planet." She says.
"It will be fine I'm sure he will adjust Eri, it will just takes time." A man says and they exchange a few more words and then they both enter the room.
Usagi looks up with his blank stare and the man steps back. "Whoa Eri, you didn't say how young he was."
"I'm not just something you can talk about, I can hear you, I'm not a baby I can understand much more than one would think. So don't just see me as a child." He says with his quiet voice.
Aikawa smiles. "ok Usagi, how old are you?" She asks while guiding him to a scale to weigh him.
"12." He says and looks up at her with his beautiful purple eyes.
~end the flashback~
"Eri why are you crying?" Usagi asks. She snaps back to reality and wipes her eyes happy she didn't put makeup on.
"You've grown up to be such a charming young man here on earth it's sad that you have to leave this week. I remember the day you showed up. You looked scared and happy." She says with a smile.
Usagi brings his hands to his face. "Oh god Eri not that again, please just don't even go there." Usagi says as they reach town and head past the store and the bank and head into the library.
They walk a few steps to the front counter and the librarian lady looks up and frowns at Usagi.
"Tch let me guess you have to take Misaki now don't you?" She says a smile growing on her aged human face.
Usagi nods and the woman with her hair up in a bun goes into a back room and gets Misaki.
"Eri, occupy yourself Misaki and I are getting food we will be back just stay here." Usagi says and Eri nods.
Misaki smiles and goes with Usagi to go get lunch. When the boys return Eri is talking with both of the librarians.
The first is the pale tall one with the bun. And the other is a shorter woman with a darker skin tone and long black hair.
"We brought drinks." Misaki says holding up a Mountain Dew and a Sprite. The ladies smile and take their drinks.
"Aikawa-San sorry for making you wait." Misaki says and hand her a Pepsi.
"Not at all Misaki I was just talking with your lovely coworkers. But we should get back and get you two packed up as you both will be spending the rest of the week with me." The redhead says with a smile.
Also just a heads up that the last chapter of this story will most definitely be very much a tearjerker. It's just how the dream ended so that's how it's going to be with much more details and emotions just because.
