My Character's Backstory, Pt. 4
On the way out of the store, Jibiki felt the bottle on his back get a little lighter. This didn't surprise him too much, not after all that had happened so far. He merely looked over his shoulder to see some of the mysterious glowing gas leaking out of the bottle. He sighed, shrugging the bottle of and kneeling down to check it despite his strong urge to leave the store. As he was looking at the bottle, checking for cracks, he heard a cracking sound from above him. He lifted his head quickly, afraid that somehow whatever magical force was suspending the moon above him would fail and it would fall on his head. This was not the case, however there were now two small golden wings poking out of the top of the moon. They drifted up and down lazily, somehow in perfect sync with the moon's bobbing. Jibiki rolled his eyes, of course strange things would never stop. He returned his attention to the bottle and, finding no cracks, left the smoke to drift. Just as he was about to put it back on, he realized the smoke was coming from the cap. He almost slapped himself for his stupidity, berating himself for not even thinking of that. He put the bottle back on, and somehow the smoke just hung around the cap like a fog. He then continued out of the store, not even noticing that the glove on his hand had begun to glow once again, and was growing stronger as he neared the exit.
