Chapter 76- Deja`vu Fate

 "OK it’s quite simple, the game may determine your fate, or destiny." "We take a leaf, ask a question and write the name of the person on the leaf that we’re asking about." "If it falls that means no to that fate of question, but if it stays on the tree branch that we place it on that means yes" Megumi said.

 "Awesome!" Dobu’ exclaimed. "Who wants to go first?" She asked as they started heading outside of her home. "Never mind that, we can all go at the same time" she replied. "Cool!" Hitomi shouted. They were heading to the same place that the group first played Charza. "Megumi how do you know so much about this stuff?" Hitomi asked. Hm Megumi thought to herself "haha I’m still learning as I go on, you too Hitomi will become stronger when you reach our class one day if you become of the Wakai" Megumi said. 

"Hey do you ever think we’ll be able to meet the one who saved the village from that fire?" Zaori asked. Megumi just looked at Zaori and slowly looked up into the sky at the stars. "Everyone pick up a leaf" she said. As they picked up a leaf Megumi did as-well writing Yuuta on the leaf. She asked "Is Yuuta really gone, will he never return?" Then Megumi climbed the tree a little bit and placed it on a not too high branch. "You all will have to give it a couple of moments, it may not be decided right away" She said.

 "Oh, and your patient, you’re the best" Tota’ said. Giving a smile that was widening. "No a friend taught me that" Megumi said. "Taught you what patience?" Hitomi asked. "Yes, if this is really true we should give this some more time" Megumi said. Megumi stood there looking in the sky at the stars, "look, look, look, mine fell" as Tota’ pointed. "Niko and I both shared the same question" Tota’ said. "What was it?" Megumi asked.

 "Are we guaranteed to not be of the Wakai" he said. "Oh wow nice question" Megumi replied. "Look mine has stayed still the entire time and mine has been there long as yours" Hitomi shouted. "What was your question?" She asked. "Would it ever be possible for me to become strong and start my own council for the village?" Hitomi said. 

"Hmm another very nice question" she replied. Everyone looked and they saw a leaf falling, "whose is that" "look" "no, no, no," Dubo’ said. Then the leaf came to  a halt it fell on the lowest branch. "Wow!" Megumi exclaimed. "What was your question" she asked. "Would I ever make it out of this village to see other villages to help, protect, and learn with them" he said.

 "All of you are so amazing in your own way" Megumi said. "Your leaf hasn’t moved since you placed it up there, Zaori safe to say your question was a yes what was it anyway?" She asked. "Id rather keep it to myself mam" Zaori responded. "OK that’s perfectly fine" Megumi said. "So that leaves only Kuhiro," when she said that Kuhiro’s leaf began slowly falling Kuhiro slowly walked up to the tree and just watched. Then the leaf fell and hit the base of the tree. 

"What does that mean?"He asked. "It’s still on the tree so that means undecided I assume" She replied. "What was your question?" Megumi asked. "Would I ever found out who took my shoes that day in class?" He replied. "He-he" Hitomi chuckled. "Hey what’s so funny?" Kuhiro asked. Well he might need more challenging tasks in the future Megumi thought to herself. We been here long enough and I guess I have the answer to my question, she thought to herself as a slow tear ran down her face. 

Megumi didn’t want them to see her like that, "lets go for now since we’re done" she said. "As they were walking away, are you alright mam?" Hitomi asked. "Yes I’m fine just my all----." "LOOK!" Tota’ exclaimed "your leaf is falling." They all turned around and watched Megumi's leaf fall to the ground nowhere near the tree.

 Megumi fell to the ground full of tears, "Megumi are you alright mam?" Dobu’ asked. She lifted her head up wiping her tears with her arm smiling, "yes I’m better than ever" she said. "Let’s go back to my home" she replied.
