Part 4. Thoughts and Talks

Renka laid down seeing Tomo knocked out. She could only sigh and wait for the girl to wake up. She spun her fans around with majestic grace. Her mind drifted off, thoughts of Taku filled her. She wasn’t exactly sure just made him attractive to her, but there was definitely something about him. She wouldn’t have long to think about it. Tomo shot up from her sleeping state in a cold sweat. Her vision was doubled for a moment, her head was racketing with pain, but she could plainly Renka’s fans twirling about in a dance. A little to the left was her silver sword, gleaming in the moonlight.

“Augh. What happened?” Tomo asked weakly trying to sit up. “I only remember us sparing, then everything… just went black.” Renka simply shrugged, her thoughts disturbed.

“I really don’t know.” She replied softly.

“Oh well.” Tomo sighed looking in the direction of the camp. “Let’s head back now Renka-san. I think everyone must be worried by now.” She started down the rocky path, but distracted by her own inner thoughts of the dream. A second later she face-planted herself into an oak. Renka shook her head discreetly and moved over to Tomo.

“You know you need to watch out for those giant oaks.” Renka said helping Tomo help. “You ok?”

“Yeah, and thank you Renka-san.” Tomo replied while being lifted up by the hand. She took a glance at her watch. She didn’t even know why she bothered to look at it. It didn’t even work ever since she arrived in this world. Her head snapped up to look at the path again. “Ryou’s going to have my head if I don’t get back soon!” She sprinted off with Renka trailing behind. Renka followed after Tomo. The two arrived and found everyone asleep or so it appeared. Ryou was gone. They took no notice and simply took their spots around the now dimming campfire.

“Looks like their all having fun huh?” Renka half-joked folding her fans and placing them away. Tomo laughed quietly.

“Guess so. They all can be goofballs.” She turned and looked at the two sleeping sisters of Ryou. Kisa had a bottle of wine or some alcoholic drink in her hand. Neko slept on Blaze’s shoulder with Blaze…snoring to no end. A little farther was Taku, who was gently sleeping. No disturbances for him. Tomo turned to Renka quickly and smiled slyly. “You know Renka-san, Taku likes you.”

“He does, does he?” She leapt upwards into the branches of the trees. She leaned on the trunk and folded her hands behind her head.

“Yes, he does! He’s just… too shy to tell you. I would think the signs would be a little more obvious.” Tomo began to climb the massive tree with little success at first. “Have you thought of anyone in a romantic way Renka-san?”

“Anyone?” Renka looked at the sky then down at the scrambling Tomo. “No, I haven’t.” She wondered what she was saying. What a strange thing to say even though the truth was real enough. She plainly observed Tomo struggling. A few moments later with splinters, and tumbles Tomo was beside her.

“Oh c’mon…not once…?!” Tomo asked breathless. “He even gave you a pet name, remember Mika-san? Nobody else calls you that. It’s so adorable!” She exclaimed excitedly. She clasped her hands on her face and blushed hard. “I think it’s so cool to have someone love you.” She closed her eyes. “It’s so romantic! Your lucky. I wish I had someone to love me.”

“Don’t worry.” Renka replied in a gentle voice. “You’ll find someone.”
