it, still calm. “If that is where you would like to go,” I said closing my eyes.
Her gallop slowed to a walk. Okay….
I made a cloak appear on me, then I pulled the hood up over my head.
Avilion took a step into the human’s village. We’re here.
I stopped her then slowly got off. Follow me, Avilion.
She followed me without hesitation. I’d follow you to the ends of the Earth, master.
I smiled. “That’s nice to know,” I said softly. I hid my face in my hood, making it impossible to see my face.
Avilion nudged me with her nose. Your hair? She asked.
In my human form, it wasn’t near as hard to hide my hair, it came to the middle of my back and wasn’t sterling silver, but gold. I smiled at her. Thank you. I thought as I put my hair in my hood.
We walked through town watching the people.
A little kid looked at me; he couldn’t tell whether I was a man or woman.
“Um…sir…?” he asked giving it a guess.
Avilion whinnied.
I lifted my hood so he could see my face, then bent to get to his level. “Incorrect, I’m ‘ma’am’. But what nice manners you have!” I said quietly.
The boy smiled. “You’re pretty!” he said. He looked to be about seven years old, now that I really looked at him.
I ruffled his black hair. “Thank you!” I said.
“Is that your horse?” he asked looking at Avilion.
I looked back to see her getting anxious.
I stood up. “What is it girl?” I asked. I knew to trust her, especially when I was in my human form—I had almost no powers when I was like this.
She started to rear up. That’s no ordinary child! She thought whinnying.
I looked at the little boy who was getting scared.
“Calm down, Avilion!” I commanded.
Avilion stomped at the boy. Look at him, my lady! Look into his eyes! You can’t tell me he’s a normal human child! She exclaimed keeping her eyes on the boy.
My hood fell completely off. “Tsk!” I grunted trying to protect the boy, yet calm Avilion down.
The boy fell back when Avilion completely reared up.
“Avilion!” I shouted at her.
By now, a few people were watching.
I will not stand by to let you get hurt! She thought bringing her feet down as hard as she could.
“Precust valion tabi shikou!” I shouted. Simple spells were the only thing I could do in my human form.
Avilion knew it was time to back down, but she didn’t feel like I was safe.
I kept chanting under my breath.
The boy stood. “Mikazuki, I’m fine,” he said softly.
I stopped chanting and looked at him.
Avilion was raging. I told you this is no normal human child!
“How do you know my name?” I asked.
“You don’t remember me? What a shame,” he said moving his hair out of his golden eyes.
The by standers were no longer interested in him, nor anything to do with me.
“Toshiro…?” I asked.
He smiled. “So you do remember,” he said walking over to me.
Avilion looked at me. What’s going on?
I looked at her. “Avilion…this is Toshiro, my mother and father’s former lieutenant…. Toshiro, this is Avilion,” I said.
Avilion stomped her foot at Toshiro and snorted.
Toshiro laughed. “Feisty are we?” he asked walking closer to me.
Avilion intercepted him and stood in front of me with her head held high.
“Very protective as well…. Don’t worry, Avilion, I won’t hurt your master. In fact, her mother and father gave me strict orders to watch over her,” he said assuring Avilion.
Mikazuki…is what he says true? Can I trust him? She asked still standing in front of me.
“It is true,” the boy said.
“Like your words are really going to assure her, Toshiro,” I said after him.
He can hear my thoughts?! Avilion exclaimed.
Toshiro smiled. “Of course,” he said rubbing Avilion’s nose.
Avilion calmed down. You’re a Spirit that can control animals and feelings…! She thought.
Close. I can do that and many other things…including hearing thoughts. He thought sadly. I expected an animal to know that.
I looked away. “Let’s go somewhere else to talk about this,” I said softly as I put my hair behind my ear.
He nodded.
I got on Avilion, then offered my hand to help Toshiro on.
He took my hand and jumped on. “Thanks,” he said putting his hands around my waist for support.
I rolled my eyes. Fast, Avilion. Fast. I thought, already mad at Toshiro.
“What’s the point?” Toshiro asked when Avilion started running. “I’m not letting go until she gets off. I’d follow her to the ends of the earth!” Toshiro said in a childish voice.
My eye twitched. “Now I remember why I banded you from my territory,” I said under my breath.
“You missed me though! Didn’t you!”
Not one bit! I thought keeping my thoughts to myself.
Toshiro laughed. “Don’t you remember…?” he started.
I closed my eyes. Please…stay a child Toshiro! You’re so much easier to deal with! I thought to myself. “All too much.”
I tightened my grip on Avilion’s mane as I felt Toshiro’s hands getting bigger.
I could now feel his breath on my ear.
“Feel familiar?” he asked. Like when you were a little kid; I would carry you around all the time.
I wanted to kick him off the horse. “I’d throw you off if only you wouldn’t get right back on.”
He took his left hand and moved my hair so he could put his head on my shoulder. “You haven’t changed one bit.”
“Neither has my temper!” I said elbowing him in the ribs.
“Ah,” he said moving his head and taking his right hand away. “That hurt you know,” he said. “To think you could hurt me in your human form.”
I snapped. “Get off!” I yelled bringing Avilion to a stop and pushing him off.
He landed on his feet, smiling. “Sure thing,” he said dusting his legs off.
I clenched my teeth. What can I do in my Galaxy that doesn’t annoy me?! I thought.
Toshiro looked at me. “I don’t know. You tell me, maybe I can help,” he teased.
“Stay off my territory,” I demanded.
He bowed. “Yes, my lady.”
I looked into his golden eyes. Maybe he can help me forget about Kein…. I thought to myself.
“You haven’t moved and you haven’t said anything…what are you thinking?” he asked knowing I was blocking him from hearing my thoughts.
“Get on up here,” I said putting my hand down to help.
He took my hand and got up on Avilion. “What’s with the change of attitude?” he asked.
“Something I don’t want to think about. Amuse me,” I said wanting him to get my mind off Kein.
He put his hands around my waist again. “How so?” he asked smiling.
I closed my eyes. Grin and bear it…. I thought to myself. “Definitely not like that,” I said moving his hands gently.
He sighed. “You can’t take jokes, can you?” he thought.
I sighed as well.
He made a rose appear in his hand. “Care for a rose?” he asked putting it in my hair.
I smiled. “Thank you. How’d you know my favorite?” I asked.
“It was your mother and father’s favorite as well. I guess you could say I thought you’d like it because they are in you,” he said smiling.
“Tell me, Toshiro. What is it you really want?” I asked making Avilion move forward.
He smiled. “Only to serve my master,” he said.
“You’re not amusing me with that,” I said.
He sighed. “Kein right?” he asked.
I elbowed him. “Shut-up.”
He let out a little grunt. “So it’s true…?”
I didn’t say anything. “I don’t want to talk about it.”
He smiled. “Even though your parents specifically picked him for you?” he asked.
“What do you mean?” I asked looking over my shoulder.
“They found him abandoned and brought him to this village so he could get close to you, and become the next Master Spirit. They thought he would be useful since he has healing powers,” he said.
“You lie!” I exclaimed.
Avilion stumbled and fell to her knees, knocking both Toshiro and I off of her.
I landed on my back with Toshiro keeping his self off me.
“It was either him or me. I know you don’t want me, yet you seem to be struggling with him,” he said.
I turned my head away. “And if I don’t choose either of you…?”
“Misfortune will befall you,” he said sitting up.
Avilion stood up and went over to me. I’m sorry! She thought worrying about me.
“I have no feelings for you, and my feelings for Kein are growing short,” I said standing up. I started walking away when Toshiro said something…something mind blowing.
“If it’s another Galaxy leader, great pain will befall you,” he said still sitting.
I was frozen in shock. I got a hold of myself and held my head high. “Give me one reason I should believe you,” I said walking towards the valley.
When I arrived Kein was there…I didn’t want to be seen by him, so I stayed out of sight and hid my presence.
When the sun started to set, I walked into the valley with Avilion. “I’m back,” I whispered.
Kein looked over to me. She kept her word. He thought. He was holding a rose in his hand.
I still couldn’t get Toshiro’s words out of my head. ‘If it’s another Galaxy leader, great pain will befall you.’
Kein looked at the rose in my hair. He seemed to hide his anger when he did. “Did you go see Shing again?” he asked looking away.
“No…I ran into the little brat,” I said taking my cloak off and putting it on Avilion’s back.
Kein smiled. “Ah, I see. He’s better than—” he cut himself off before finishing. “Him being there is better than being alone,” he said making up for what he started.
I took the rose out of my hair and looked at it. Great pain will befall you…. I thought with a troubled look.
A stabbing pain hit my chest. “What’s…happening…?” I grunted falling to my knees.
Kein rushed over to me. “Mikazuki, what’s wrong?!”
Avilion lifted her head up. Is it your old illness?
I slowly looked at her through my pain. “Get…Toshiro.”
Avilion took off as fast as she could to get Toshiro.
Kein looked confused and worried. “Why aren’t you healing yourself? What’s wrong Mikazuki?” he asked kneeling beside me.
“I can’t,” I said clutching my chest. Why is this happening…? Is it because of what Toshiro was talking about? I thought. “It can’t be true…,” I whispered.
Kein looked even more confused. “What can’t be true?”
“Mikazuki?!” I heard Toshiro exclaim.
I looked over to see him on Avilion, rushing towards me. I looked down in shame. You made a bull’s eye…. I thought letting my hair fall over my shoulders.
Avilion had come to a stop near me.
Toshiro was staring at me as if he had seen a ghost. “You…you’ve got to be kidding me,” he said slowly getting off Avilion.
Kein looked at Toshiro. “What’s going on?”
Toshiro dropped to his knees by me. “Please tell me you’re kidding!” he said.
I didn’t look up. “I’m telling the truth…I can prove it too,” I said.
Kein just listened so he could try to keep up.
“Transform…now,” he demanded.
I knew he was doing this because he cared for me. Which form?
“Whatever it takes!” he said growing angry.
I closed my eyes, slowly taking my Master form.
Toshiro closed his eyes, as if in agony. He stood up.
