Man.. these thoughts need to stop being read!
I can't help it okay! Your just sooo. Loud! Its annoying why can't you ever stop thinking this thinking that equals well what do yah know Mizuki is afraid of jelly fish
She covered her mouth and I widened my eyes. Kokoros thoughts flickered to laughter?
And mizuki just turned away pouting at her accidental reveal
I stared at her for a moment filing that away for things to watch out for then turned away.. after all the city of Kaiya is in the middle of the ocean.
I smiled at the coming reaction.
Mizuki froze and I simply looked to my left. Content with my suddle fear mongering.
I looked to my left ignoring kokoros physical ramblings of how stupid we can be.
The i noticed something strange? The towers which were homes for the rich and poor alike began to decending as we drove. My thoughtd flickered at that then i noticed something else. began to see older and older building as we reach the center of the city of zeta prime. Hmm, quietly curious i spoke allowed.
"Why is it getting older ss we get closer to the center of the city?"
Kokoro temporally stopped his active thoughts absorption medditation.
one that showed a calm forest activity being burned down by a nearby volcano the thoughts melting with the trees as they lava controlled the flow of thoughts creating a cacophony event for any mind readers trying to parse his mind or read i guess...
Kokoro simply stared at me envisioning the fire burning an uncomfortablly familiar face as his legs were broken under... mysterious circumstances.
I swalled spit
Then he finnaly spoke.
Its because the center is where the rich and noble ligh if you look ahead of you you'll see the local city palace built for the gods and emperor nightstsr before he ascended to the heavens.
My brain burnt out for a moment then recontexualized what he just said.
Soooo the nobles like old homes? And the rich have no choice but to stay here or have a piece to show status? Rich people i swear their soo... weird...
Kokoro glared at me as if saying your one to you know
Matter a fact so am i
"No im not rich. I just inherited my fathers legacy."
"Sure whatever you say rich boy." I spouted in contempt.
Then i mutterd " even i dont get a allowance bigger than a million a year.
I sighed at that.
Mizuki went bug eyed and even kokoro looked at me differently to the point were his thoughts filtered through.
This kid.. he isn't normal.
I chuckled at that and the volcano spit fire at me and I laughed and laughed.. until it, uh, mentally burned my face off. Gulp
Yea... so that painfull mental experience aside.
I begon to look at the elfs ears in front of me.. they looked long and pointy with suddle coloring on the side that of gold on the ears and angular looking symbols on the face colored green of course.
Apparently there are elven warriors who specialize in well, protecting the target from assailants. And just so hap—
"shut up Akahoshi Before I spit flames in those thick ears of yours!" Her voice flattering as ever yelled in an almost monotone yet sassy way, I dont knoe how she does these.. impossible feats.
Kokoro just put his hands to the bridge of his nose Apparently praying to his dea— kokoro eyes glowed orange till I, my face squeezed in minute fear.
promptly shut up....
Okay! I cant do this an— the car bumped on the road from a.. i dont even know
All I know is that i keep getting rudely interupted by events around me.
"Im. Not. An. Event!" Her voice losing that monotone voice
I pushed her further" and for starters you are if i say you are d.r.a.g.o.n"
Even kokoro paused at my wording
Mizukis pink eyes glared at me hot and literally burning with flames. "Dont hit me in with your insecurities"
" goodmen" she said as if that finished— she glared harder than before to the point were her eyes started to go sharp.
My head heated and I nearly leaped across the seating over kokoro. only to be pulled back to my seat straps. Momemtom carrying me back to my spot.
"We're here"
I scowled, still heating up.
Mizuki still still glaring at me whispered "they were listening?" With a casual tilt towards their direction.
"We couldn't not listen even if we wanted to. Not only is it our jobs to keep you safe from ALL dangers. That also includes yourself. After all—"
"Thats enough talking their ear off won't help them learn their lesson."
"Were not kids ya know!?"
"Sure your not and we're not—" he got smacked across the face kokoro smirked, mizuki simply huffed as if that loud slap wasn't enough then the window shut and they.. pfff
Quickly escorted us out. Both of them annoyed at our mere existence. I paused my thinking to sub mizuki glared and for once i glared back.
Kokoro immediately leaped to my side and picked me up like a child my legs skidding on the floor i struggled and writhed to no avail only to come up with an idea.. i looked up at him and he simply said this.
"Its not going to work the way you think it will." Deep voice grumbling. All the while mizuki stuck her tongue out at me even when tongue was fiery and.. lit aflame.. oh she's messing with me!
Of course I am dummy she couldn't help but laugh as she spoke its only natural after your thoughts keep projecting so noisily and at that we began to argue who's fault this was.
To the point that as we walked in the streets surrounded by five elfs and two yapping people fighting each other between hair pulling and punching we did it all.. even while I was in a marginalized disadvantage. I still put up a fight.
Least to say the people around us looked at us weirdly kokoro kept his thoughts quiet mizuki kept yelling to drown out the noise of her own head and I? I just got carried like a angry child.
Even though i was 5 foot 10 inches he was an even larger six foot eight inches tall. It was astounding. Though I suppose, pfff mizuki was the shortest in the group.
Only by an inch. I looked straight down at her shoes and she glowered at me a 2 inch show difference between five nine aaaannnnnddd.
She covered her face in embarrassment, waiting for me to say it.... but i didn't and then suddenly she stopped cringing and looked at me.. realy looked at me.
Then kokoro moved me closer to his side glowering at her then at me.
What did I do!
He simply grumbled to himself then promptly dropped me. I fell allllllllllll the way down the steps to the magnetic tram.
My face now thoroughly scuffed I got up like an emu getting out of its head hole and looked around only to see..
I swalled but nothing came down.
For my mouth was dry of excuses. Their was a crowed of people.
Just.
Staring at me.
Then they began to whisper as the sound of wind roared towards us till a clear tub closed over us. blocking the growing sound of roaring wind.. huh
They began to whisper like Meer cats trying to warn each other of something strange and why am I thinking like a zooligist?!
Kokoro chuckled as the elven aready by my side covered our rear with two elves ears twitching. And three behind me now.
Isn't that the boy who..
Isn't he the son of.
That boys mother is just another dragon isn't she?
If froze at that last comment and slowy got up. And I turned around to see that the elfs were gossiping about me. As though they hated me or something. Their green eyes glared then narrowed daggers into me.
Thats right boy. We understand you more than you do yourself.
!!
Why the hel—
