Chapter 3:

(I Loved It!)

Divination~K7


Where in the hell are we. Kokoro looks around. We’re in the wild. The middle of nowhere. But I guess we have this bloody path in front of us… It probably leads to some short of civilization. We can't be the only ones. Kokoro stares at the ground. Hopefully others survived the fall too. Though, that black hole took us somewhere different than Japan. But that somewhere doesn't matter right now. Kokoro notices Asuka is wearing new clothes. Pink cotton pants and top. "Asuka when did you change clothes"-Kokoro asks Asuka. "What?"-Asuka says, looking down at her outfit. "Don't know? But your clothes are also different Kokoro"-Asuka states. Kokoro looks down at himself. I'm wearing cotton clothing too. However, mine is dyed red. "Guess the black hole changed and replaced our clothes"-Kokoro. "maybe"-Asuka. That's kinda hot. Anyway, we just need to get to a place where we can be safe for now… We have no clue where we are. We are alone in the middle of nowhere… That's kinda hot. ”Hmm….What should we do?”-Asuka mumbles to herself. “We can’t get a ride, we can’t call anyone, we don't have a home…”-Asuka mumbles. How the fuck are we going to survive. How are we going to eat/drink? How will we get home? Kokoro glances at Asuka. I gotta cool down or Asuka will start panicking. ”Are you okay Kokoro”-Asuka asks. Did she notice I was thinking hard? ”Yeah, I’m fine… I am just thinking”-I say. Kokoro looks around. Nothing, but a bunch of trees. Plus the grassy bloody path in front of us. I stare at the blood. I wonder how long it's been here. Something catches my eye. I saw a moving object in the corner of my eye; near the bushes next to the path. Kokoro quickly jolts his head towards the bush. The spine is poking out of his stomach. The back of his head is caving into the front. His dried-up blood is covering the body. Although the body looks pretty recent. It hasn't fully decayed. Kokoro stares and blankly looks at the body. Mom, Dad, the crazy homeless man and now him. I wonder what happened to cause the guy to be here in this world. Can't be better than falling to your death. But I guess it doesn't affect me. He should have just been better and survived the fall. No, I feel bad for them. They don't deserve to die like this. It's sad. Kokoro peeps at Asuka, sanity comes back to him as he sees her face. Asuka’s hand covers her mouth. I don't know if she is scared or is going to puke. ”It's sad that he is dead. Do you need help”-I ask. ”I’ll be fine!.. ”-Asuka says while looking sick. ” okay..."-I. Asuka squats down. "hunh!!! Bleugh"-Asuka. Asuka's eyes widened. Droplets seep into her eyelids. Her legs drop to the ground. "I won’t look ”-I say as I turn my head the other way. Kokoro looks ahead. He ponders life, trying to think of a way of survival. He walks up to the bushes and plucks off a leaf. "ughhh"-Asuka stops. "Here, you might need this."-Kokoro says, handing the leaf to Asuka. "Thank you"-Asuka says, grabbing the leaf and whipping her mouth. Kokoro sits down and rest his back against hers. ”t-t thanks for not looking”-Asuka. ” You're welcome. Although it's human to feel sick after you see a dead body"-I. ” Yea...“-Asuka. Hopefully, Asuka’s feeling better now. Asuka and Kokoro stand up. "Let's search for a way back to our world."-Kokoro asks. ”Let’s”-Asuka says, the sun comes out and shines on Asuka. She smiles at me. I swear this isn’t my imagination or anything, but Asuka looked like an angel. ”Your cute”-Kokoro mumbles out loud on accident. Her whole face turns red. ”uhm uhm“- Asuka murmurs. Asuka looks cute and embarrassed, but why? ”I said she’s cute out loud!!!!”-I say out loud. Asuka still just going “uhm uhm”. Asuka looks at Kokoro. I feel my face go red. ”t-Thanks Kokoro, I just threw up and your calling me cute. Your pretty wierd" -Asuka says. ” I might die…”-I mumble to myself. "Let's… Keep on walking”-I say while embarrassed. ”yep, let’s continue”-Asuka…

It’s almost nighttime. Kokoro and Asuka continued walking down the bloody path. They are surrounded by forest. Where to look. Where do I look. *Baam*. A green blob with a crying, screaming face comes out of the bushes. ” AAHhhhheee!!!”- Asuka lets out a high pitch scream. “That thing just looks a little off”-I say moving my arm in front of Asuka. ”It doesn’t look hostile?”-Asuka whispers into my ear, from behind. ”It looks like some slime, thing”-I. The slime thing stares at me. Blanks eyes… It suddenly changes its expression, like its just noticed something. It suddenly looks surprised, happy, and relieved all at the same time……. The slime moves at a quick speed. It jumps onto Kokoro. The slime rubs itself against Kokoro’s skin… ”Aww, it likes you”-Asuka says playfully. ”Eww it feels slimey”-I. The slime keeps on rubbing its face and body against me. Then the slime suddenly looks up at me. Its crying screaming face has turned into a face of joy… *warm*. Kokoro rubs the top of the slimes “head with his hand. He feels relatable. What should I call it, I need to give it a name. ”I’ma call it Slimey”-I. ”Hmmmm? What happened to you not liking it”-Asuka says sassily. ”Well, Slimey’s kind, and now his slime doesn’t feel that bad… You really like me Slimey, don’t you! Nice slimey, nice slimey”-I say while petting Slimey. Asuka kneels down beside me and starts petting Slimey too. I look at Asuka for a sec, then I look at Slimey’s eyes. Their circle shaped and look adorable. But there are glossy, like they have seen something. ~It’s like Slimey knows pain~. Ha… Somehow I already feel for Slimey. Kokoro continues staring into Slimey’s blank eyes. ~I understand~. *I blink*. I feel relieved… Slimey jumps up and rubs itself against Asuka's face. Then Slimey hops towards Kokoro and rubs against Kokor’s leg. After that Slimey hops back towards the bushes. He stops halfway and turns around. Slimey grins at me and Asuka… His grin was so big. Then Slimey jumps back into the bushes and disappears. ~I feel like I will see him again~... “I wondered what's up with Slimey”-Asuka says while putting her head on my shoulder. I blush. “He’s probably got something to do, but we’ll see him again”-I… Silence… I reach my hands out and grasp her fingernail. “At least your nails didn’t change”-I say to Asuka. “Yep, same with my piercings.”-Asuka. I wish Asuka and I just stay like this forever. This world. The old world. What are we? Asuka pushes my arm back and stands up. She then starts looking around. I feel happy. I got to play with Asuka’s nails. I look at Asuka and she is focused. Wonder what she is thinking about… If I had to guess, she is probably thinking about the old world. I wonder what about the old world she is reminiscing about… Another minute passes while I stare and wonder what she is thinking about. ”We umm have to find shelter for the night. Then we have to find civiliazation”-Asuka says finally. ”Yeah, let's continue searching” -I say while cracking my fingers. “There is nothing around us. No sign of civilization. I'm getting tired as well. We really need to find somewhere to sleep. I can not sleep on the ground!.. I have a concert in a couple days… looks like I am going to miss it.”-Asuka head. I stand up and reach out my hand to help her up. “Cmon lets go”-I. She grabs my hand. I feel her hands, they are soft but freezing.

We’ve been walking for about 2 hours now. The sun has set... I’m tired. I look at Asuka and she is about to fall down any second now…. As I swing my head side to side from drowsiness; I abruptly notice the trees and bushes on the left side of the path are appearing less and less. An open field appears in my vision! I squint my eyes. I keep on looking at the plain. In the distance, I see… ”A shack!”-I yell out loud to Asuka. ”What are we going to do with a shack?”-Asuka asks. “Hopefully, it is vacant. I can’t wait to sleep it in”-I. “What! Your joking right”-I. Kokoro jogs towards the shack. He opens the shack door. The shack is wooden and old-looking. Inside the shack is a bunch of boxes filled to the brim. The floor is rotten and ridden with cracks. The shack is a little small, but there will be enough space for the night as long as we move the boxes… We will have a place to stay for the night. Asuka wasn’t looking forward to sleeping on the dirt outside. Plus we don't know what creatures are outside, after seeing Slimey. Asuka and Kokoro start moving all the junk out of the shack. ”Are you sure it's okay to move all the boxes out of the shack? Someone is using this shack to store their belongings”-Asuka says while having a box in her hands. ”Nope”-I

say with a smile. ”But it's a matter of survival and it looks abandoned enough”-I state while now carrying a metal hoe outside. ”Hmm, I’m still a little worried about staying here”-Asuka. ”It's fine, I’ll make sure nothing happens to us while we’re here”-I say cheerfully. ”okay” -Asuka says while smiling as she bends her thighs to put a box down. *Kokoro’s face turns a little red and he looks away*. Kokoro focuses on the window behind her. It's getting dark, fast. "Where was the lantern”-I. ”Here”-Asuka says, handing me the lantern. ”Thanks Asuka”-I while hurrying. ”You’re welcome” -Asuka says politely, yet feisty. I rest the lantern on a box and sit down. Asuka follows and sits down adjacent to me… This is the first time I’ve ever stayed the night with a girl. In addition, its Asuka, the girl I liked for a year now. We're not even dating, but what are we. I think we are more than friends. But I could be too overconfident. I don’t know maybe I’m being weird. ”The shack is really clean”-she says. “Yeah we did”-I. ”Although it is so dusty''-Asuka. “Yeah, but a little dust doesn't hurt anyone”-I say. ”It’s still bad to breathe it in”-Asuka says. Asuka grabs a cloth and sweps in a circular motion. I watch as Asuka puts the cloth back into the bucket of water, and she repeats the motion. We found the water behind the shack. Somehow this is entertaining. Just observing her clean is pleasant...

The moon and stars have risen up into the sky. Time to decide who sleeps where. I plan to let Asuka sleep on the bench. I will sleep on the floor like a gentleman. Ps: the bench was already in the shed when we got here. ”Asuka you can have the bench”-I. ”You sure Kokoro, the floor doesn’t seem conformable”-Asuka. ”Nope, I’m good. I am used to sleeping on the ground.-I say. “Well, okay. Just make sure you use the cover”-Asuka. We only found one cover. ” Kokoro your body having cracks in it cannot be healthy. I recommend you sleep as much as you can”-Asuka says while sounding worried. ”Fine. I’ll use the ugly cover”-I. Asuka will fall asleep and then the cover will magically fly onto her. Kinda like Aladdin, except with no flamboyant genie. Asuka climbs up on the bench that was already in the shed, and lays down on one of the pillows we found. I gaze at her with the corner of my eye. Her sleeping body is so graceful and alluring. However her open areas of skin has goosebumps. I

Kokoro continues staring at Asuka. I have a warm feeling in my stomach. I feel happy. Kokoro lays down on his side and stares ahead of him. He thinks of all the times he spent with Asuka. Memories fly through his mind. I want to protect Asuka… I want to make her happy… I want to hold her hand and kiss her. I need to keep her safe… *Kokoro grins*. I feel so happy. Asuka is laying on the bench sideways, knees up. "Kokoro is lying next to me 😂. It’s silly how he is on the ground with a cover. It looks so stupid. Although he does look kinda rugged… Like one of those movie guys. It's a little embarrassing sleeping next to a boy"-Asuka mind. The ground doesn’t feel so bad. It is cold so at least I am not too hot. "I have so much energy!!! I can’t sleep!!! Uhhhhh."-Asuka's thoughts. ”How’s the ground?”-Asuka ask. ”Ground like”-I say seriously. Asuka giggles. ”Cmon Kokoro, be serious”-Asuka. “I was… It feels fine. It's cold, which is good. Anyway, how is that bench of yours”-I ask. ”It’s good”-Asuka says energetically while smirking. ”k goodnight, Asuka!”- I say quickly, overwhelmed with happiness . Damn she’s so cute sometimes. “Goodnight Kokoro”-Asuka says cutely. A few mins pass and it’s going to be hard to sleep... I look at Asuka. She turns over and looks at me with one eye open. I don't know what she’s doing. "Hmmmm. He better not try anything while I’m sleeping… Maybe it is for the better if he tries something. Ahh!!! what did I just think"-Asuka. Weird Asuka's ears are red. Her ears are red… It’s 40 degrees outside and her ears are red. She better not be dying or getting sick.

Hours pass. Dangit, I just spent the past few hours pondering about sleeping in a shack with Asuka. My head is in fucking space and the space I'm in is nice. ”nmmm”-Asuka’s sleep noises. I look at her. She’s sleeping… Finally, Kokoro takes the blanket off himself. Mission put the blanket on Asuka; for reasons, active. Kokoro gets up and kneels quietly towards Asuka's bench. Kokoro peers at Asuka's body. Thin pale legs. I gaze at them just for a little. Asuka's lower thighs are a lighter tone. Her hairless lower leg is shaking. Goosebumps cover her appealing legs. Kokoro gets a little agitated. He slowly moves the blanket close to Asuka. More. *Heartbeat*. k just a little more. *Heartbeat*. And done! Kokoro studies at Asuka and the blanket position. It's comfy. She looks pure in her sleep. Kokoro walks outside. The scene shows the inside of the shack. Asuka’s eyes pop open.

*Cough*. *Cough*. *Cough*. *Cough*. Cough*...........*haaa*. *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* "Uuuuuaaahh. Heee haaa Heeee haaaa heee haaa Hee haaa"-Kokoro. *Cough*. *Cough*. "Uuuaahhh"-Kokoro. Kokoro sits behind the shack. He breathes frantically. Kokoro’s eyes widened with intense panic. We’re safe right, right? We’re finally safe right now, right? We’re not in danger. The blackhole demon thing didn't kill us… Kokoro closes his eyes. “AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!.”-Kokoro screams inside his head. I’m STUCK in this place! DANGIT! DANGIT! DANGIT! I’m just trying to LIVE MY LIFE! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! STUPID! STUPID! STUPID FUCKING HOLE. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS GOD? WHY WHY WHY WHY. NO, IT CAN’T BE GOD I PRAY EVERY DAY. ITS THE DEVIL FUCK FUCK FUCK! Tsuki. i-I c-can’t c-contact m-my s-sister. H-ho-w's T-ts-u-ki d-do-i-ng? S-sh-e p-p-probab-ly t-thin-ks I am d-e-a-d. Kokoro’s pupils shrink and his sclera expands. What happens if my sister thinks I’m dead? What happens? How will Tsuki react. Kokoro leers in front of himself. How would Tsuki recover? She already lost Mom and Dad. Now me. Who will save her? Who will watch over her? Who will be waiting for her when she gets home? Will she just be alone. Kokoro sees a cute white bunny running towards himself with a scared expression. “What do you want! Bunny”-I say coldly. The bunny hops towards me… The white bunny moves faster and faster and faster and faster and faster. Something isn’t right here. Kokoro changes his attitude. ”What’s wrong bunny”-Kokoro. Its eyes weep in fear??? Why is the bunny so scared? Kokoro walks towards the bunny, carefully because he cares for it. The bunny turns to look at Kokoro. Its eyes are full of angst. The bunny begins shaking. It shakes and shakes and shakes and squeales and squeals and screeches and screeches and it whimpers and whimpers. Kokoro is sprinting towards the bunny. ~I’m too late~. The bunny grins at Kokoro. A shadow leaps out of the darkness and ravages bunny to shreds. The shadow has the bunny's head in its mouth and it is taking the bunny’s head with it. Nonetheless, the bunny's flakey remains are left on the ground. I stop and look at the blood. I gawk at the bunny’s skin. Blood is splattered all over the place… Blood. Bloody path!Human fossils. Decaying bodies. Gang members. I s-l-a-u-g-h-t-e-r-e-d them!

People on street hfhghhg *Breathes* i-i-i killed them, I finished them all. I killed humans. I killed people. I didn’t even think about it I just killed them. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. AAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Kokoro’s eyes stretch out. Kokoro swings his hands up into the air. Kokoro body is shaking. I-i a-actually k-killed s-s-s-s-som-m-m-meone. They had friends, family, and loved ones and I ended it all! Tears pours down Kokoro eyes. I-i killed someon. NO! I don’t want anyone to die. I didn’t want to kill people. I feel guilty. But I had to! I had to! *Kokoro breathes deeply*. I had to kill them! I am a KIlLER Kokoro checks widens and he grins. He laughs while crying. “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHA, AHAAAAAAAAHaHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FDIE DIE DIE DIED EDIED DIED EDIED ED IEDIE IEDIEDI EDI ewrgmelwisyrhjghdfgnkwjdshfhhgsyfungfjnfghghhsghgsghnfdhnfgngfnsfnhfdgdfnhndsh”-I. This isn’t even the first time I’ve killed people. LEts see. One. two. Three four five. And another one two three four. That’s 9 including Mom and Dad. “ALL DDIE. DIE DIE DIE. HAHAHAHAHAHAH DAD MOM I’M SORRY. AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I LOVED IT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH”-”-I. "Kokoro?”-Asuka. Asuka looks at Kokoro concerned, with fear in her eyes. Why… Kokoro turns to face Asuka. Kokoro sends Asuka a horrifying glance. Why, why is Asuka looking at me like that? Is she scared? “You're scaring me Kokoro” her face reads. Why… Kokoro turns away swiftly, he tries to hide from Asuka's eyes. “So ... how are you doing Asuka… you woke up because of me right... that's my bad”-Kokoro says looking everywhere but at Asuka's eyes. Asuka looks at Kokoro. ”Kokoro, what happened?”-She asks, seeming worried. ~bitch~. She’s trying to make me feel better. Why is she trying to make me feel better? But I do feel better because of her attempt. “It’s nothing just that you know-----------... I remembered that I killed those people. *sigh*. Asuka! They had people, family and friends, that cared about their life. And I ended it. I just killed them without a second thought. And it felt good! I was enraged with them and I released my anger out on them and it felt good. I feel so guilty… I’m evil right! I’m”-Kokoro explains. Asuka hugs Kokoro. Asuka wraps her delicate arms around Kokoro’s rough back and she puts her face into his chest. Kokoro becomes embarrassed and stiff. I observe Asuka's face; she looks sad, but happy at the same time. ”Why di-”-Kokoro. ”Shut up. Kokoro, you're an idiot! You’re not evil. You feel sorry about killing them. That doesn't make you evil. You felt good, because they were bad people, and you were umm saving me. You feel horrible right now because you feel guilty… It’s good that you feel that, it means you're still human... Kokoro You’re a kind person …-Asuka says honestly. Asuka notices that she hugged Kokoro and she takes a step backk. ”Thanks for saving me Kokoro”-Asuka says with a smile. "Ahahaha"-Kokoro chuckles in joy. "Thanks, for making me feel better, I like talking to you”-I say as I get up from the ground. ”Your welcome, Kokoro. Let's get back inside and sleep“-Asuka says uneasy; as she walks towards the shack. However, Kokoro pulls Asuka's shoulder and lightly pushes her back to the ground. Asuka and Kokoro fall to the ground. Asuka's belly button is showing. ”immm”-Asuka groans.”Kokoro what are you-”-Asuka says before getting cut off. Kokoro's eyebrows are frowning. His eyes are dark and blank. Kokoro touches Asuka's lips with his left index finger and puts his right index on Asuka’s stomach. He slowly moves it down and taps her area with his index finger. Asuka is frozen . Kokoro smiles at her. ” I can’t control myself”-Kokoro says to Asuka while smirking. ”Kokoro what do you mean”- Asuka says timidly. Kokoro moves closer to her. He moves his hand… A rooster crows suddenly. Kokoro gets surprised by the chicken. His body collapses and falls on top of Asuka. Asuka glares at Kokoro intently in dismay. She is still in a state of shock. Kokoro stands up and starts laughing. Damn that fucking roster… Is it already morning and why the fuck are there rosters In this world. Aw, What was I going to do? “My bad. I kinda lost my cool.”-I say honestly. Asuka jolts up and she tackles Kokoro down to the ground. Asuka fiercely slaps him across the face. 3 times. ”What were you doing!”-Asuka screams at Kokoro.” I don’t know”-Kokoro replies. Kokoro pulls Asuka off him and sits up. Asuka sits up as well. She gives him a bitter glare. “I can’t believe you touched my area”-Asuka says out loud while embarrassed. “You were going to let me continue”-I say shrugging. “I was not!”-Asuka states. ”You sure?”-I retort. “Uhh, Yeah!”-Asuka says quickly. “Owww my face hurts, you slap good”-Kokoro says feeling his check. “That's what u get for touching me there”-Asuka says sassily… ”Sure”-I say while smirking… “Hey, I could see us doing it one day”-Kokoro says jokingly. Asuka stares at Kokoro. She gives me the look. “That's if I ever let you Kokoro”-Asuka says. "Would you let me do it?"-I ask. "That's for me to know and you not to"-Asuka says with a finger on her lips. I look into her eyes as says answers me. I can’t guess her answer. Kokoro pushes himself up confidently and reach his hand out to Asuka. She looks at his hand. “Kokoro, your pinky is bleeding. It looks like a deep cut too.”-Asuka. “What?”-Kokoro states surprised looking at his pink. There was a cut in Kokoro’s right pinky. “I just won’t touch it.”-Asuka states. Asuka grabs Kokoro hand and gets up. They hold hands… Kokoro lookups. It’s already sunrise. I examine the sunrise. ”How many hours of sleep did you get Asuka?-”I ask. “7.”- Asuka. ”I got 4 hours… Ooo so that’s why my head is in sharp pain”- I mumble out loud… ”Kokoro go get more sleep…”-Asuka. ”I’ll be fine”-I. *Asuka sighs*. ”Go sleep!“-Asuka says scaringly. I get frightened. ”... okay”-I. Let me go to bed then… *Smirk*. I’m in a good mood. ”C'mon let’s go inside and go to bed.”-I nag. ”nnmmm”-Asuka says cutely agitated. Asuka starts pushing me towards the bed. “I can't get into the bed with you, I gotta go clean up, find food, and its weird.”-Asuka says as she continues to push me towards the bed. ”allright”-I yawn out loud, as the sleep devastation hits me. I see some nice open space on the floor. Kokoro lays down on the hard wooden ground……………………………… "I heard nothing"-Asuka’s thoughts…………… .……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. "C'mon move onto the bench Kokoro"-A Girl's voice? “huh?”-I mumble without realizing it………………………………………………………………………………… ………………..…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………........................................................................................................................................................... May 10th

*Clank**Cling*... I hear weird noises. My back is in something rough. something rough. Kokoro finally opens his eyes. He is stunned. Where am I? I’m not home? Kokoro eyes dart around. Ooo, we got sucked up by a black hole yesterday. Kokoro looks ahead at Asuka's backside. He sees Asuka cooking. *Warm feeling*. ”I found a mini stove and a pan in one of the boxes that were left here. Hopefully, the owners of the shed won’t get angry. Although I am just using it for a little bit”-Asuka says concerningly. "Yeah…”-I. Kokoro the berries I picked earlier are done cooking so here, eat”-Asuka. She picked berries? Asuka puts the cooked berries on the table. I get up from the bench and sit down at a table that looks too much like a box for a box, for some reason. Asuka carries the pan and places it ontop of the box. She sits down. Her feet are touching mine... Kokoro gets embarrassed. He glances up at her as she is eating. Asuka notices Kokoro looking at her. Asuka kicks Kokoro’s leg. “Ha”-Asuka says. Fucking bitch. I go to kick her back. Kokoro tries to kick her,but Asuka dodges it by sliding backwards; Kokoro slips and his elbow hits the ground. Asuka giggles. “Fuck off”-I state. “You missed”-Asuka says. *sigh* “Yeah, I did. Anyway let's eat”-I say ruffled. Last night was awkward. I feel self-conscious about how I acted. Asuka saw me when I was weak and acting weird. Ugh, at least she got to know me better. “Asuka are you scared of being stuck here”-I ask reasonably. ”Yeah of course I am. I miss my friends. In addition, I don’t know where or what this place is…It really sucks...“- Asuka says truthfully. ”Your right…”-I say while looking down…. “I’ll make sure we’re safe…”-I pledge. “You have to, you are the guy… I believe in you to”-Asuka says trying to be nice as she eats her berries. I don’t know if she really means that though. Maybe she is just saying it to say it. *Some time passes*. Asuka iswashing the dishes with water we got from a water jug. Weirdly enough the owner left a water jug inside the shed. This shed is so claustrophobic. I need to move. ”Asuka, Ima go for a walk”-I say. “okay, I am going to get ready to travel some more. Hopefully, we find some people today.”-Asuka states. ”You know you don’t have to put the stuff away”-I say trying to mess with her. ”Mmm, Kokoro if I don’t put the stuff away, we would make a mess”-Asuka says agitated. ”I Know… See ya” -I say while smiling as I walk out of the shed. ”Have a nice walk.”-Asuka says. *Warm feeling*. She’s like a wife. ”I will...”-I say back as my eyes shake. Kokoro shuts the door to the shed. In general, I like walking around. It helped calm me down a lot in the old world and collect my thoughts. I would just leave my apartment and go on walks throughout the neighborhood. I need to gain info about this world. I know nothing. I don’t know what lives here. Where I am, or what this place is. Kokoro puts his foot on the bloody path. He walks for a bit. The wind breezes by. The light shines down on Kokoro, warming his body. The tree's leaves flutter throughthe sky. The bushes sway from left to right. The tall field grass wavers. The sky is clear. The clouds move rapidly. The light shines down, glazing the air. And finally the sun is red… That's the only difference. I look down at the blood-stained ground. Death was here… Kokoro's eyes jerk to the right. The bushes moves abnormally. Kokoro steadily approaches closer and closer to the bush… Then… Darkness… *BAM* Slimey jumps out of the bush and lands onto Kokoro’s face! Slimey starts rubbing his slime face against Kokoro’s. He’s glad to see me. “Hey, Slimey everything alright”-I. Slimey peers at me for a sec. Somehow I understand what he’s saying to me. ”~So you’re running away~ Slimey... You can come with us if u like”-I... I wonder what Slimey’s been through. ”Mwea Mwea Mwea”-Slimey’s slime noises, replying to my question. They wake me up from my thoughts. I focus back on Slimey. ”Mwray”-Slimey ask. ”Yeah Slimey, it’s fine if you join me and Asuka”-I state. ”Mweaa, Mweeaa”-Slimey says. ”Yeah, let’s go back to Asuka, so you can join us, Slimey”-I say enthusiastically.

Kokoro and Slimey walk back to the shack. Slimey’s hops beside Kokoro. I guess that's how slimes move. Slimey and Kokoro quickly spot the shack. Asuka is waiting outside the shack. Slimey hoops up to Asuka and jumps on her knee. He hugs it like a tic. Asuka laughs a little then she gently pulls him off. ”You found Slimey”-Asuka says cheerfully. ”Yeah, you could say that. Is it okay if he joins us?”-I ask. ”Of course”-Asuka says while playing with Slimey little hands… The 3 of us are leaving on a journey. I’m excited... Slimey rubs Asuka’s face with his excitement. He jumps off. His body jiggles like jello as he lands. “Are we ready to go”-I ask. ”Yep, I put everything away and cleaned up. ”-Asuka. ”Thanks for cleaning up the shack”-I say with a grin. ”You're welcome."-Asuka. "It was surprisingly bearable sleeping in an abandoned shack with a boy. Although you almost raped me”-Asuka says feeling cheeky. ”Yeah, It was nice staying here”-I say with a smile ignoring her comment. Kokoro grabs the sled that has all the useful items we found in the shed. ”Okay, let’s start our journey!”-I say excitedly while smiling. “*mwop*”-Slimey says while jumping in the air! ”Let’s”-Asuka.
