Chapter 75- Hitomi's Friends & Megumi's Fresh-Start

As Megumi walked away she thought to herself, should I trust this man. I’ve been fooled before by the witches, and even my grandmother. I don’t know for now, but I’m only sure of one thing my friends have not deceived me. Even though Mr. Howkuu did not inform me on the origin of art, heck maybe he didn’t know. 

I will just have to try and experiment with some things Siaki told me when I have some time, to see if what he said is true. Of course after I go back and learn some more from him but I must keep my focus and guard up around him in-case. "Hey Megumi." Hitomi said as she stood outside of her home. "Why hello Hitomi are these all your friends?" Megumi asked. "Yes" she replied. "Come in you guys", "OK" they all replied. "My other friends couldn’t make it" Hitomi said.

 "Oh that’s fine I’ll have to meet them another time" Megumi said. A little girl ran up and grabbed Megumi's arm, "hi I’m Zaori I’m so glad to finally meet you" she said smiling so wide. "Aww I’m glad I could meet you as-well" Megumi said. Then a boy walked up in front of Megumi and bowed his head to her, "I am Kuhiro and I am very honored to meet you Megumi of The Legendary Oskata" he said. in his kind of high pitched voice. He smiled, his dimples began showing with his red cheeks. 

Pulling on her other arm was another boy "you’re very strong and brave I want to be like you" he said. "Oh… wow I don’t know what to say I’m flattered." "May I ask what is your name" she said. "My name is Dobu’" he responded. Two others were standing behind the everyone else in the room. "I’m sorry Megumi they’re shy, and twins" Hitomi said. "Twins?" Megumi shockingly said. "Yes, they are twins, identical to be exact I will introduce them if you don’t mine Madam Megumi" Hitomi said. 

"No, go ahead I don’t mine it’s fine with me" she replied. "OK he is Niko on the left and that is Tota’ on the right." "The way we can tell the difference between the two is by their attitudes." "Tota’ is usually very scared of things that he usually does not see on a daily basis." "It can be people, objects, organisms, anything." 

"Also Niko usually covers and shields him when he is scared like now, he is the older brother by ten minutes" Hitomi said. "Oh, wow identical twins that is very cool, there is nothing to be scared of Tota’ it’s alright" she said. "Huh… she thinks we’re cool" Tota’ said very timidly. "Yes she does c’mon bro let’s meet her" Niko replied. So they turned around slowly and they both gave Megumi a hug.

 "Now see there I’m nothing to fear" Megumi said laughingly. "Can you show us you art?" Hitomi asked. "Oh ha-ha no not now, when I practice in the courtyard, you should all come by and watch." "It’s too dangerous to attempt in front of people in a home, I only do that if that is necessary" Megumi said.

 "How about we play a quick game?" Megumi said. "Yea a game" they all replied. "What game?" Zaori asked. "The Game of Charza do you all know of it?" Megumi asked. "No mam?" Hitmoi replied.
