Chapter 24: A Big Reunion At Liverpool
"I'm so happy that I'll get to see your cute face again! It feels like we haven't seen each other in months!"
"You can say that again. I'm also glad that I spent so much time with my friends in Primp Town. I needed to get motivated instead of just lousing in the house and reading my book." I said.
I was on the bus after showing my bus ticket to the bus driver, now heading back home. After four to five weeks of spending time in Primp Town, It feels like I'm ready to see my own mother again. She's always this kind to me. So for a treat, in which you guys already know, I return the favor. I'm feeling that this relationship is now quite similar to the friends that I had back in Primp Town. It's very nice that I am building relationships step-by-step. Because my strength for growing relationships seemed to be very messy when I was little. Now in this current state that I'm in, I am now starting to turn this around. I'm really hoping that I don't end up in the same process that I was in before I arrived in Primp Town.
But, all of that aside, right now, I'm currently texting my mom during this long ride. She's currently happy that I'm seeing her again. Of course, I am the person that she needs the most. It would've been even better when dad needs me as well. It could ultimately be the best part so far.
*BZZZT*
"I forgot to ask you. How did you meet all of your friends?" My mom asked me.
"When I first went to Primp Town Magic School, My teacher was giving me a tour around the building. She even introduced me to all of the classmates that were in her classroom. And that was when I met Raffina and Amitie. A few days after is when Amitie introduced me to Arle and Ringo when I was going outside to get fresh air."
*BZZZT*
"I see… they sure seem to be nice people. Now I'm hoping you could make some friends over there."
"I'll try to see what I can do. There's not that many people I can interact with, but I guess I'll take this time to see who I can talk to. If only I can work it out."
*BZZZT*
"You will. You just need to try to communicate more with people who do the same things as you. You know, reading books, watching tv, those sorts of things. It'll be challenging to pull off, but it's also about trying to trust your instincts in terms of making friends who do the same things as you. I do that all the time and I never encounter a single problem."
"Understandable."
*BZZZT*
"But I was so glad that you had to accomplish that, heading into Primp Town. Now you got more people to rely on now."
"I know. I wanted to give it my all. And it turned out to be not much of a harder test than it was supposed to be when I first went to the school."
*BZZZT*
"I wouldn't call a harder test for ya. Maybe Primp Town was kind of a much more of a friendly place to me. And it was the only dimension that was open to me, hence why I bought a brand-new house for you."
"It's fine if that was your only option. I'm just here to study magic. I have no preference on what dimension studies magic. So you are perfectly fine."
*BZZZT*
"Ok. Well I'm glad you were able to get the results that you wanted moving forward. But I wonder if it's going to shift to your world."
"It might. But I don't want to show this to anyone. Otherwise, everyone is going to be stunned by me revealing my magic to them."
Just to let you guys know, I am glad that my mother and I are texting each other at the moment. I don't want to tell anybody that I am the only person that is showing my magic to anyone. If I call my mother, which I don't feel like doing at the very moment, then everyone is going to notice that I was creating magic because of me playing Puyo Puyo back in Primp Town. And the news could be trending immediately.
*BZZZT*
"Don't worry about that. You can show me your own magic when you come back home. I'd be so excited anyways."
"Alright. I'll text you when I'm at the bus station in Liverpool."
*BZZZT*
"Alright. I love you, sweetie. I hope you make it back home safely."
This is why I love my mother so much. Our relationship will definitely stay connected during our long lifespan.
*THE NEXT MORNING*
…
…
…
…
…
*BUZZZ*
*WE HAVE NOW ARRIVED AT LIVERPOOL, UNITED KINGDOM. FOR THOSE PASSENGERS WITH THEIR TICKETS FOR A RIDE TO LIVERPOOL, UNITED KINGDOM, WE ARE NOW STOPPING SHORTLY. PLEASE HAVE YOUR BELONGINGS READY. THANK YOU, AND HAVE A GREAT MORNING.*
So we are here, huh?
I then woke up, rubbed my eyes, and looked out my window to see that I had finally made it back home.
I then saw most people grabbing their own bags so I had to do the same just in case I don't miss out on my stop.
But in order to do anything else, I had to check my phone to see what time it was.
And when I looked at it…
8:55 AM?! H-How did I sleep for that long?! I must've been a heavy sleeper for this!
I was in so much shock as I immediately went to my text messages to try to text my mom.
"I'm approaching the bus stop." I texted her.
I then looked out my window to see that we're almost at our stop. It was a little sudden to me that I have arrived here at this time of day.
I'm home, Liverpool. It's been a while since we last saw each other.
*BZZZT*
"I'm already nine minutes away from your stop. So I'll see you when you get off." My mom texted me.
Geez, my mom is up and at it! Well, I still woke up a little late so I'm not gonna really bother.
*BUZZ*
*FOR THE PASSENGERS WITH A RIDE TO LIVERPOOL, UNITED KINGDOM, WE HAVE NOW ARRIVED AT YOUR DESTINATION. PLEASE GRAB ALL OF YOUR BELONGINGS AT THIS TIME AND BE READY TO GET OFF. THANK YOU, AND HAVE A GOOD DAY.*
I put on my bookbag as the bus was about to make a full stop. I allowed anyone who was getting off to go before me. And there was no one else that was behind me after I got up from my seat. Once the passengers that were in front of me got off the bus, I then showed the bus driver my ticket and left the bus. There was a bench that was next to the bus stop so I had to sit there for the time being.
So this is what a reunion feels like. I'm back home. This world that I was born in. But only in Liverpool. This exact spot is where I was going to take my leave from here to Primp Town. Now I'm back here. Back to where I am right now. But with me being alone this time.
Oh yeah! Let's see if I have my dark magic.
I then opened my left hand to see if there was dark magic coming out. And a few seconds later…
*PEW*
Side Note: I didn't know what sound effect I could think of since people in some adventures, games, etc., fire energy spheres, so I'm going to use this for now.
"Wow… it actually worked. But I can't believe why I did it publicly." I whispered while I was so surprised at what I just did. Which was me firing a dark energy sphere on the floor. And there was a bit of ashes.
I was so happy that the magic shifted over to my world. It was a dream come true. Now I could finally do whatever I want with this magic. But I didn't mean to fire it in public because other people might have seen what I have done.
I can't believe it. My wish actually came true. I don't know how I should tell this to mom. She might lose her mind.
So for the remainder of time until my mom comes, I had to just sit there and wait.
For some reason, I didn't know my mother would be up at it when I was on my way to my stop. I thought she would be asleep and not ready to come and get me.
But it didn't matter to me much. I just want to see my mother again. There's nothing really else to decide on at this rate.
…
…
…
I miss my friends. I wish I could've spent more time with them at the least. If I were to travel dimensions then I could've hung out with them someday. Maybe someday I'll figure it out soon.
…
…
…
"Oh. The stone." I said as I went through my bookbag and checked to make sure that the stone was still in there.
I really hope I didn't lose it.
…
"Oh it's in there. Good." I said with a relief look on my face.
I was thinking to myself that someone was gonna grab it out of nowhere, leaving me with nothing to show. Things would've been really worse.
I then closed my bookbag so that nothing drops. I get the feeling that now that I have the stone with me and I'm back home, there's still some things that need to be done. I already completed my task of becoming a magic user, but there are other stones that need research. Although I got the information that I need from Satan and Ecolo about them. But I need more details on the others.
I'm just hoping someone would give me an answer. Like someday.
*HONK* *HONK*
I looked to my left to see a red car that was approaching next to me. And I knew who was in that red car. Which made me really happy at the moment. Only because I finally get to see her again.
I then got up from the bench and went inside the car. With a smile on my face.
"Is that my Kaze?! Because I'm looking at her right now!"
"Hello, mom. It's me of course." I said while blushing.
"My goodness, am I ever ecstatic to see your face again. How are you? Was that ride long?" Mom asked me.
"It kinda was. I fell asleep multiple times. I did eat some snacks while I was inside the bus to help me stay awake, but most of the time, I was asleep." I said.
"Well it kinda does feel a lot boring when you are alone on the bus, so I can let that one slide."
"Well I would like to play on my phone but I don't have any service to download something."
"You didn't wanna read your book or anything?"
"No… I bet it'll make me sleepy from reading a lot of chapters."
"Sleepy, Huh? Well… I guess you do have a point. There's nothing really important to do rather than just having a chit-chat with your friends."
"More importantly, having to chat with my friends while moving around makes the environment even better."
"I agree. I would have let you spark some conversations with your friends about anything. Speaking of having conversations about anything, do you still have that red stone?"
"Yes. It's still in my bookbag. I was worried that someone might take it, but it's still with me."
"Ok, good. I was hoping that you would bring it back. Alright. I don't think I need to go anywhere so I think it's time that we… head back to our own pad."
…
…
…
"Yeah… let's." I said with a smile.
We have now arrived home with all of my stuff with me. It's been a long wait since I have been here. Not much that I can say about it, but I'm sure that a lot has changed ever since I took off to Primp Town.
Well… my mom would be all alone though. So I can hear the least out of her.
"Geez, it feels so fresh in here." I said as we entered the house.
"That was because I had to do a lot of spraying. Just to make sure it doesn't smell." Mom said.
"I see. You sure did change the scenery a little."
"Kinda. But that was the only thing I ever did while you were gone. The rest of the stuff was me working and just watching tv."
"I guess you were bored, no?" I said with a smirk.
"I-I-I was not bored! There was not much that I could do while you were away. If Dad was able to come here, then the next thing we would've been doing is just going out at a restaurant."
"Yeah, I don't think that might happen. He's already traveling so the odds are small that it'll likely happen."
"Define the term, "The odds are small that it'll likely happen."." Mom said with an annoyed look.
"*giggle* I can't go against it, can I?"
"Uh… hell yes. Ugh… whatever. I'm going back to work. Just take care of what you need to take care of." My mom said as she was walking to the kitchen and got on the computer.
"Ok, Dad would come sometimes, but would you rather decide on where you want him to go?" I asked my mom.
She ignored me for a good while. Maybe she is still mad about what I have said to her.
I guess I'm starting to be more like Raffina when it comes to teasing.
Four hours have passed now since I arrived home and I was just watching a movie in my room. I almost got tired a couple of times but I had to stay awake while watching. I didn't know why I was starting to get tired, but I tried to stay awake throughout. Maybe the air was making me more tired than I was ever since I was sleeping on the bus on my trip to Liverpool. Maybe I have to find a way to wake myself up.
"Kaze!" I then heard Mom's voice as I got up from my bed and headed downstairs.
"You called, Mom?" I asked my mother as I went inside the kitchen.
"So you say that you still have the stone, right? My coworkers want to see what it looks like. Can you bring that over here?"
"S-Sure. I'm on it." I said as I walked straight to my room to grab the red legendary stone.
I somewhat forgot that mom needed that red stone to show her co-workers what the stone looks like. I was really hoping what my mom would come up with after I still have the red stone with me. There's nothing else that I can do until further notice.
I don't really doubt my mother. Just for this one. I already have my details locked in, but I'm just making sure that nothing happens to the stone. And my mother might be the one to have my back by giving evidence that was taken from me on why the flash of light was there in the first place. I really hope I don't be the one that is telling lies. Because I knew what I experienced when I first protected the stone.
I went inside my room and grabbed the stone from my desk. While I was walking, I was looking at the stone.
The good news for me is that there is no villain here in the United Kingdom that is looking for this stone. Because it's just not possible that a real villain would end up being here in the United Kingdom and wreck everyone's day.
"Here you go." I said as I placed the stone on the table. "I had to make sure there was no damage to it. Even though it's just a stone."
"Well they are not ruined even if you drop them so I'm sure we should be just fine if we just hold on to it much longer."
"That's true. So are you sure you can handle what you are doing with the stone? I mean, of course I don't know what would be my next move, but are you sure you can help do some research on this stone?"
"Sure I can. A flash of light appeared in our world, so of course we'll get more info if you give me this time to explain what is actually going on by releasing the details from what was going on while you were protecting the stone. Don't worry, though. While I'm working, I'll keep you updated if there is more news that involves this."
I gave myself some thought after hearing what mom said about the stone. I wanted to take care of it myself, but If I just take care of it alone, then I'll find myself in an event where I may have some difficulties understanding what this stone is for or who is the mastermind behind these stones and starting the attempt for world annihilation.
"I understand. I won't be able to figure out who is the actual mastermind behind the stones until you can explain the information that you got from me to other people. I'm just actually hoping it's not either Satan, Ecolo or Arfoire."
"Well look on the bright side. They didn't exist in this world while me and you were born at the same time. Our lives would've been somewhat costly if they had the opportunity to create massive calamity. Knowing yourself, I believe you may be the big piece to where we are now going through. Now that you have the stone returned and we have three villains to deal with while chasing down the five other stones."
"You don't think most people are going to believe me?"
"It depends… Many people may not know a lot about the Primp Town Dimension. Many people might know. I'm just hoping that they need to take all of these evidence that you and your friends pointed out back in Primp Town seriously because they won't believe what might happen to their lives after capturing all six stones
including the red stone."
"You're not wrong. If everyone is willing to know the truth to why these flashes of light have occurred then they really need to understand my story. Otherwise, the next thing they will be noticing is their lives being burnt to ashes."
"Totally agre… Wait hold on… I got one an email from my one co-workers."
My mom then went to her account and clicked on the mail that she got from her co-worker.
And when she read it… her face was stunned. Huge.
"Holy hell…"
"W-What happened? I-Is something wrong, mom?" I asked, looking a little worried.
…
…
…
"There's another villain that appeared in this world.
…
…
…
And it's Thanos. He's looking for the hidden stone in this world too."
Those words shook me. Did my mother just say… another villain? I didn't know what to say as I have no idea how many villains are here to capture all six stones. This is going to be really tough to know if I should stop this chaos solo.
…
…
…
Wait, which stone is he looking for though?
Author's Note: This is where the magic happens! Kaze has finally returned home with the stone in her hands! Now she can use this chance to explain the evidence that she got while she was at Primp Town protecting the stone to the people why there were flashes of light to begin with with Jordyn on Kaze's side. But now there's trouble coming their way. What's next for them? You'll just have to find out soon.
SERIES CHANGE! Yup I have now arrived in the Miscellaneous Games category. For those who are new wondering why I have 25 chapters, This story is a six category crossover and there's a prologue to it. Every dimension that we head to, the category will change, so if you are interested, try following this story, look up the title name (Dimensional Saga: The Legendary Warfare), look up my username (Stargamer77) or try looking through the categories (Misc. Games, Puyo Puyo, Mario, Legend Of Zelda, Yuru Yuri, Hyperdimension Neptunia) so that you guys don't miss out on those chapters. There. I gave you some suggestions. This is just so that you guys don't get confused or lost on where I'm at in this story.
