Running around I turn and look for a versation I i Suzuka in. No not that ohose guys are way too deep in versation, what about them? no; they are talking about things I would rather not have Suzuka hear.
But soon I see a target and say, “There!”
Φ “What is it Buloke?”
“Jute I just wao apologize.”
Being coy, I say, “Whatever could you mean?”
“I should have noticed the fact you cut your hair shorter, that’s my fault.”
Behind me Holly, Juniper, and Acadia whisper, “Now they are going to passionately kiss and make up.”
“Just like always.”
“It is standard practice at this point.”
Turning around, I shout, “SHUT UP. Now Buloke, tinue.”
“All in all, Jute, I just wao say, I am so sor-.” Suddenly Buloke is drop-kicked in the face by Orb, sending him into the ground.
Looking directly at me, Orb says, “Hey Jute how are you doing?”
“Orb, what the hell was that?”
“I just o talk to you as soon as possible, it definitely wasn’t revenge for him beating the shit out of me.”
“I AM PRETTY SURE IT WAS!!”
“Whatever, Jute I want to introduce you to someone.”
“Who?”
Turning around Orb tries to move a girl around his height away from his back, but she fights against him and refuses to move.
Turning to face me, Orb says, “Give me a mie.”
Φ “Suzuka e on!”
“I refuse Orb, all those girls look cute and popur I am going to get bullied.”
“You never even talk to them how do you even know they could bully you?”
“Because I observed this stuff; during the nights I hunted spirits I used to stalk girls and observe their behaviour, and the pretty one used to always bully irls and make fun of them.”
“So, I guess that makes you a bully then.”
Taking a sed to realize, Suzuka blushes and says, “Did you just call me pretty!”
Getting behind her, I push her forward and say, “See that face is adorable and I am sure all these girls will like it too. Now sack up ahis done!”
Being pushed forward Suzuka says, “No, no, no, no, no, no!”
Φ This is bad I am not ready, but Orb did say I am adorable so I should try.
When Orb stops pushing me, my ake ain, and I start to shake. What should I say, I o hurry up and think of something otherwise they will think I am weird. Wait, I will just read their minds.
Closing my eyes, I try to read their minds, but then I am bombarded from all dires by voices aions. Holding my head, I suppress the other people’s thoughts aions all I .
Too many people are in high tension, if I don’t pletely shut out the thoughts aions I will be pletely bombarded. I guess I have to do this naturally, mother, father give me strength.
Stig out my hand, I say, “HELLO MY NAME IS S-SUZUKA GOZEN AND I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO, I MEAN O MEET YOU!”
Opening my eyes, I check to see how everyone responds, but the firls in front of me are around Orb.
Φ Hugging me, Acadia says, “Oh how I have missed your refreshing face Orb.”
“Please let go of me; only I touch people not the other way around.”
Letting go of me, she says, “Oh sorry Orb, but it seems you have gotten more built over the time you were gone.”
“Well, it is so I do things like this.” Pig her up and putting her in a princess hold.
“O-O-O-Orb what are you doing!?”
“You’re always taking care of your younger siblings, so I thought it only fair that someoreats you like a princess.”
Using my legacy, I create a of id pce it on her head then I say, “Here you go my dy.”
Fainting she says, “I die happy now.” So, I pced her in a bed made of snow.
Turning my head to Holly, I say, “Have you put on some weight?”
Embarrassed, she holds her stomad says, “Please don’t notice such things Orb.”
Giving her a hug, I say, “Who cares about such a thing, all it does is make your beautiful self o hug. Nothing more beautiful than a girl with a nice appetite.”
Huggin' me back, she says, “I love you!”
“I will think about it, but please stop the physical tact.”
Pulli of her arms, Juniper says, “Please listen Holly when someone speaks, if you don’t you will end up causing my frustration for those around you.”
Looking up at Juniper, I say, “Thanks for always looking out for me,” With a smile.
Her facial expressios as she says, “Orb if you ever in need of a wife call for me.”
Turning to Jute, she says, “Whatever voodoo magic you use o won’t work.”
With an uanding smile, I say, “So Buloke is being an idiot yet again, I bet he didn’t even notice that you cut your hair and added braids.”
Impassioned, she says, “That’s exactly it!!! That idiot never uands anything.”
Looks like all those teiques Capti taught me have e in handy.
Φ Looking at Orb anger fills my veins; did he really abandoo go flirt with some girls!!!!? I k was too good to be true, Orb is just some manwhore in disguise.
Behind me I feel a surge of ive emotions and thoughts; turning around I see men wearing clothes with the same design as Maple who are making nasty gres at Orb.
“That bastard.”
“Woman-loving pervert.”
“Devil in disguise.”
“Pretty looking i.”
“Watch your back.”
“Your days are numbered!”
With tears appearing in my eyes, I look over at them and when we lock eyes mutual feelings e over all of us; Die Orb!
Orb notig us runs towards all of the men and starts to talk to them.
“Coco looking sharp as usual; Banya your jokes are as funny as always; Alis I missed you so much; Mango have you put on some muscle because you look amazing; Ash I bet you and Ewen worked your asses off to make this pce look so fy you're amazing.”
Suddenly the emotions of all the men start to turn positive and fluffy.
“Do I really look good?”
“I have a whole lot more jokes!”
“Sorry for pung you, I missed you too.”
“I have been training quite a bit, I even got spirit art training done.”
“Does the infrastructure look good, I didn’t know if I did my job as well as possible.”
Looking at them in shock, I say, “They have been seduced!” Feelirayed, I say, “Damn you Orb.”
Feeling a hand on my shoulder, I hear, “I am going to pound that brat's fa.”
Looking towards who is toug me, I see the man Orb just drop-kicked and I immediately freeze; this man is beautiful!!!
His muscles are giant and well-defined, and he has a light amount of facial hair but it is quite striking as well, his hair is geous and his red eyes pull me in. But more than any of that I feel the raw experience flowing directly off his body, his body isn’t heavily scared not because he is zy but because he is simply that strong; he is a man among me!
Looking down at me, he says, “Oh sorry I shouldn’t have touched you,” As he removes his hand.
Immediately, I try to say something back but I pletely stutter and trip over all my words until I say, “Marry me.”
“What?”
“Nothing!!!!”
Taking a step forward he falls down on one knee, so I immediately help him.
“What the hell was with that attack he hit me with, it is like a bunch of force just got sent straight into my body.”
“Umm that’s Orb’s helix battle arts, it’s a teique he stole from an old man.”
With a sombre look, he says, “Not only does Orb have his legacy, but now even spirit arts and fn teiques as well. Looks like I am going to get outcssed.”
“DON’T WORRY ABOUT THAT! Orb may have all those abilities but against someone of equal strength I am sure they could crush that dumb dog, even I put him on his ass before.”
Giving me a smile, he says, “Thank you for that.”
Blushing I turn my head away and say, “If you ever need a training partner just ask me.”
“Sure, I will, but could I ask for your name?”
Turning my head towards him, I say, “Suzuka Goz-.” I stop short as I see the woman named Jute staring directly at me.
Pushing Buloke away, she grabs me and brings me close to her face, then says, “Little girl I better never see you around him again, or I will make yret your existence, am I clear.”
Looking back at her, I say, “Who says I have to listen to yo-.”
Closing her eyes, she opens them again and gives me a pletely crazed stare. “I must not have made myself clear, If I ever see you in front of Buloke again I will push you to a state beyoh and after I do so, I will so defile your corpse that the very ws of nature will it suicide out of the sight of your body. Now do I make myself clear little girl!”
Her eyes are nothing, but bck holes filled with madness, which shakes me so much that I say, “Y-Y-Y-YES MAM!”
As she lets go of me, I run as far as I as quickly as I .
Φ Taking a breath, I hear Buloke say on the floor, “What was that?”
Returning to my normal self I say, “Oh that was nothing, please pay it no mind.”
Buloke taking a deep breath, says, “You really are crazy, and that’s just how I like it. Jute please five me I miss you.”
Hugging him, I say, “I miss you too.”
“All fiven.”
“Yes!”
Φ Hearing gross sounds I turn my head to see Jute and Buloke kissing intensely. “Eait, where is Suzuka?” Instantly I run off to look for her.
Φ Sitting down with my legs crossed, I hear Suzuka shout, “CYRUS!!!” Then a few moments ter she dashes at me looking for a big hug.
“hat’s wrong.”
“I try to unicate, scary girls, Orb manwhore, beautiful man, demon is disguise, please help me!!!!”
“Huh?”
Orb running over to us says, “Suzuka why did you run off?”
Seeing Orb, she hisses at him. “Or-r-r-rb it see-e-e-e-ems like she is angry.”
“Why!!?”
“Because yo-o-o-ou’re a man whore.” Suzuka shakes her head in agreement.”
“HOW!?”
Climbing over my body Orb tries to get to Suzuka, whilst saying, “Sorry if I did anything wrong.”
“Stay away you traitor.”
As Orb and Suzuka tio climb and py around my body, I ugh which causes the both of them to stop.
Whisper to Suzuka, Orb says, “Has Cyrus gone mad?”
Whispering to Orb, Suzuka says, “Maybe since he is part lizard he tracted some lizard disease.”
Patting both of them on the head, I say, “I-I-I-I-If you bot-t-t-th ever need anything ask me.”
Looking at me strahey whisper to each ain.
“I thought the eyepatch made him only look cooler, but that retty cool as well.”
“Maybe losing a horn awakened something within him.”
Laying against me, Suzuka says, “I am tired Orb, so I am going to lie here.”
“Hey we got some work to do.”
“So are you telling me you don’t want to lie against Cyrus?”
Lying against me, Orb says, “I never said that, I am just reminding us of our mission.”
“A little rest never hurt anybody.”
“Well, I guess you’re right.”
As they just lie against me, Orb says, “Cyrus whatever you decide you want to do with your sister’s body I will help you do it.”
“Tha-a-a-a-ank you Orb.”
Suzuka says, “Don’t dead bodies start to smell and rot.”
Φ “Yes, but I froze it to stop that from happening so Cyrus you take all the time you need.”
Cyrus simply nods his head in agreement. Looking up at his face with a missing horn and eye I grip my hands; I o work harder so that no one loses like Cyrus.
