Feeling soft light kiss his face, Iramo slowly opens his eyes, yawning as he stretches out his arms. Staring at the cobalt ceiling that blocked the sky.
This is the third time I've woken up in a different place. This one seems nice though compared to the others … Yeaaah no, I think I'll stay away from sleeping for a while.
What even was that thing that I saw? It's fighting was ridiculous! What's even more ridiculous was … what's his name again? Eh, it'll come to me later. Whoever he was though he dominated that thing with ease.
I wish I got to see how that played out but I couldn't see much of anything at all. He was moving so ridiculously fast, I had better chances to see his shadow before him. Seriously, just who was that guy? And why is that what I saw? Either way he's a part of my past, I hope he's on my side if we run into each other again.
It's all going as fast as it came, I can't remember it all. I'll just try to keep the important stuff in mind then and keep it pushing. Not much I can do until it happens again anyways, so I'll do what I can for now.
Looking up at the ceiling Iramo then at himself, Iramo wonders why the green rings are around him.
Uhhh what the hell are these? I don't got time for whatever freak show is going on here. I want to go explore the city.
Leaping off the bed, Iramo stands tall taking a step forward towards the door.
And that's exactly what I'm going to do as soon as I get out of here.
Before he could even realize it, Iramo abruptly began falling to the ground. Bracing himself with his hands as he was face to face with the cold, cobalt floor covered in blooming black flowers.
Hearing warping static from the bed side, he sees the rings vanish and a green film forms around his skin.
"Sir, you should try not to move so fast, your treatment is done but your body's not aligned with your mind just yet."
"Are you the one who did all this? Where's saranai is she ok? What is this t-"
"Shut it and cool it hot head. Yes I am the one watching over you in Saranai's place and yes she's perfectly fine just off training."
Iramo puts his left hand on his knee, staggering as he struggles to stand.
"What the fuck???"
"I can barely move my body, I feel more tired than before, how is that even possible?"
Pain flaring throughout his mind he thinks of The Man In Mist hearing a wry voice echo in his head.
"So you think you're safe? Those things from before don't just exist in your head, you know?"
Iramo began to let out a strong aura engulfing himself in it as he slowly rose to his feet.
"Woah try to calm yourself down, you're getting too worked up. I don't know what it is that you think you're seeing but it can't hurt you here."
"You have to calm down, your energy readings are off the charts. Damn it I told this girl don't bring the first man you see back home."
"Honestly even if he is some sexy alien that saved you, the man is still an outworlder."
Hearing giggles in his head, Iramo tried desperately to search around him for what was speaking to him.
"You're so gullible! That look on your face is priceless."
Becoming a familiar tone that he hasn't heard in a while but recognizes well, The voice speaks to him again.
"Oh calm down, I'm not one of them."
Sighing in relief, Iramo calms himself breathing in and out. Lowering his output gradually.
"Look at you freaking out over the smallest little things."
Confused, the silhouette puts her left hand under her boobs and one covering her mouth with her fingers folded into a half fist sitting on her lips.
"Wha – who are you talking to? Ouuuu Saranai … girl, I know you lying, I know you are lying! He's crazy!"
Relaxing and feeling the fatigue set back in, Iramo holds his head with his right hand.
"You – so it was you doing that? I still don't even know what to call you yet."
"Well for now you can call me Yasha but don't get too excited to see me. I only came by to give you a little friendly advice now."
"Be careful not to stir up too much trouble. Between your entrance and the commotion you caused, doing all this now won't help you get out of here."
"For now just -"
"Oh yea I remember! I crashed into the tree after I got here and everyone was chasing us down. Wait but -"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! SHHH"
"But im not even talking any-"
"SHHH!"
"As I was saying, you can't use your abilities all wheelie nilly here either. It won't be good for you if they find out you have them."
"Oh come on, these are the best things to happen to me since I've been here."
"I'm not done talking, shut it!"
"You'll be held responsible for a different incident if you're found out now so keep it discreet. Only use them when you have to. This will keep everything at bay and you don't have to worry about practice, you'll have plenty of that at night."
Once again how the hell does he know about that? There is no way that is remotely possible. I didn't say a word about it to anyone let alone him. What exactly is Yasha?
"Would you look at the time? It's been fun but I gotta go, no time for questions!"
"Wait one last thing actually, that girl over there thing's your crazy by the way."
Oh shit, I forgot there was someone else here! Damn it yasha!
"Toodles!"
Damn that yasha and his horrible timing. Now im going to look crazy trying to explain about the voice only I can hear vanishing. Ok let me see what I can say. Think, Think, Thinkkkk, I got it! I'll just convince her I didn't say anything.
"Ummmm, are you ok over there?"
"Who me? Yea of course! Why did something happen?"
"Yea, it did."
"Wow really? What happened?"
"You were talking -"
"To you of course I am! Who else would I be talking to?"
"Wait what? No you we're literally just talking to-"
"To you I know! So you we're saying Saranai went off training right? You got to tell me what kind of moves she has?"
"At this point who knows."
"Saranai's zone is only for healing so I doubt she'll come back with much to show you."
"At least that was before. She's been determined she can make it perfect to join any fight."
"Wait, what's a Zone? Is that the name of that thing on her wrist?"
"Wait what? You don't know what Zone is?"
"Nope, no clue."
"It makes so much more sense now, why she's so interested in you. The fact you can even exert that much energy without any training, you definitely are something special."
"She said you even fought a Xaride on your own and survived you even got away on your own which is impossible for a normal survivor but you, with your power, you definitely could do it."
"What's a Xaride? Oh is that those nasty flaming freaks roaming around out there? I honestly wish I killed the last one too-"
"Killed?! Interesting, you even beat one on your own too. You said you wanted to become a crusader right?"
"Yea, it's the only way forward for me."
"Reasons aside, you can easily join if you could already handle that much on your own."
"You might even start as a captain, who knows."
Putting his finger in his mouth, Iramo softly bites down on it, looking to the sky. Day dreaming of the countless stars in space, Iramo dreams of the adventures he'll have on his way back home.
"Hellooo! Your not even listening, don't piss me off!"
Claret fairies fly all around Iramo, block his view as they rise to the ceiling vanishing without a trace. Leaving behind a tall woman, sitting on the edge of the bed. Looking at Iramo, fascinated by the creatures that left as fast as they came out of the blue. He had yet to notice her sitting right in front of him. Only feeling a soft hand curess the side of his face.
"Your cute so you'll get a pass today but I'm gonna be keeping an eye on you. It would be a shame if you went and died on me so when your stronger let's meet again."
"Crazy boy."
The moment he went to turn around to look for who it was that touched he found himself face to face with Saranai, looking back at him as a singular fairy smiled at them and faded away.
