"Ne, Ne? why can you see me?" Arashi asks looking exited. I'm glad she seems okay with him.
"I don't know I just do..." He says nervously reaching behind his back. Anger briefly flashes across Arashi's face.
~ That Which Cannot Be Seen ~ ~ Chapter 6 ~ ~Another Like Me~ ~Watashi no yōna betsu no~
In a split second Natsume pulls a slip of paper out of his pocket and pushes out in front of him. Arashi flinches and fly's backward into a nearby tree.
"Arashi!" I yell as she slides to the ground.
I turn to Natsume "What did you do to her!"
"I just stunned her." He says looking sorry. I have a feeling he usually refrains from fighting.
"I don't usually go around fighting youkai it's just my friend and I felt something unnatural about the storm earlier so he made me take that charm." He continues confirming my feeling.
"Is she going to be ok? Why did you attack her?!"
" I thought she was going to, try to steal the bo-." He breaks off. "Yes she should wake up soon." He says looking beyond sorry.
"She better!" I glare at him ignore the unanswered question.
I hear a muffled groan and walk toward Arashi. Natsume fallows behind mumbling something under his breath that sounds vaguely like "Were's that lazy cat?"
I kneel down beside Arashi. "Are you ok?" I ask her.
"Yes I will be after I kill that damn exorcist, he attacked me for no reason!" She exclaims angrily.
"Exorcist?" I inquire looking at Natsume.
"I'm not an exorcist." He says looking surprised.
Arashi's eyes flash and she reaches for her umbrella as she sees him. I move it from her reach.
"Come on Arashi settle down." I say looking at her pointedly.
"Fine." She spits out reluctantly proceeding to glare at Natsume heatedly.
"Hey human wants your name again?" She asks Natsume breaking the uncomfortable silence that had consumed us.
"Natsume Takashi." he says looking wary.
"Hmm. Where have I heard that name before?" Arashi asks herself looking thoughtful. She sniffs the air and a flash of recognition flashes across her face.
"You smell just like her." She says looking even more thoughtful.
"Who?" I ask feeling left out of the conversation. Natsume looks intrigued.
"Oh what was her name, something like Riido no Riedo no-"
"Do you mean Reiko?" Natsume interrupts.
"Yes! That's it!" She chuckles. "Reiko was a very interesting human."
I'm glad she seems to be warming up to Natsume.
"Um guys can we go somewhere dry as much as I like chatting I'm getting cold." I interrupt.
"Oh...Do you guys live near here?" Natsume asks.
"Um I don't know." I say looking at Arashi "Do you know where we are?"
"NO!~" She sings grinning. Talk about serious mood swings.
"Ok then." I turn to Natsume "Well we seem to be lost..." He looks thoughtful for a second.
"Well I guess you guys could come to my house."
"Really?" Arashi asks excitedly and promptly glomps him. He looks uncomfortable and very confused.
I think I can say one thing for certain; Natsume Takashi is not a people person. I think we are going to get along just fine.
"Arashi I thought you hated him." I tell her trying to peel her off him.
"Huh I don't hate him. Why would I hate him?"
'Mood swings don't we just love them?'
"And I thought I attracted weird youkai." I hear Natsume mumble under his breath.
I laugh inwardly and listen to Arashi chatter.
'Yes we are going to get along just fine. I wonder what the kami have in store for us now?'
Whoot I'm finished! My friend drew an epic pic of Arashi it is on deviant art. It is called That Girl With The Umbrella. The link is in my profile I suggest you check it and her other awesome artwork out. ^_^
