My Make a Story 3

[Azureknight 773]

After a long day of work from the store he dismissed his workers, Akira walked the streets across the city, bought some bread from a local bread store and found a group of people. He said "Yo! Konnichi wa minna-san!".

Shinji made his way down to the lobby just in time to see Amiko slap her forehead with her hand. "Hmm, I wonder what she's so adamant about."

He strolled up to Amiko and Kyuui with a big cheesy grin on his now uncovered face. He hoped Amiko wouldn't be too taken back by the unusual designs on his face.

"Well ladies I'm ready to get going...almost, there's just one small thing I have to go pick up for Kyuui." He winked at Kyuui. He had not forgotten she wanted a pet, so he had made some..special arrangements with a local resident who had a penchant for keeping all sorts of animals.

"Come on my dear, I'll need your help picking...ahem," he said to Kyuui.

Amiko stared blankly after them as the pair departed to "pick up" something. She had not been prepared for the sight of such gnarly scars. But he seemed confident and happy without the bandages, so little else mattered, and she guessed she hear the story behind them along the way. She followed them, but from only visual range. No sense taking a trip back to the hotel when they could just leave immediately after the mystery errand.

Well, if they could just hit the road already. What was so important that there needed more delay? As much as she wanted to make that man squirm with anticipation, and as much as she'd deny it, there WAS a rush to get there before it was too late. She doubted they realized how urgent the trip was. True, there were a few extra days, but what if something were to happen that would hinder their progress? No, Amiko was determined to not let that happen. No sickness, no poor weather, no stranger in need, and no attacker would make her late. But honestly! What were they picking up?

It was then that she noticed a well-dressed man calling to them. Kyuui and Shinji didn't seem to notice, but just in case, Amiko grabbed his sleeve and ducked behind the corner of a building, since the couple probably wanted a bit of privacy.
"Shh...I think they're having a moment..." Amiko told Akira.

((Yay! Finally included Azureknight!))

Kyuui was as clueless as Amiko was about what the "something" was. When he'd come down, she'd been surprised that he was without his bandages, but to add in an aloof comment, left her befuddled. Knowing Shinji, he probably wouldn't spoil the surprise of his statement. Besides, they'd be finding that out soon enough.

While walking, Kyuui could voice what she'd been wondering for a little while. So, since Amiko was walking behind them, Kyuui asked "Why'd you take off the bandages? You've never left them off before..."

Akira asked Amiko "So what is goin' on there da-ze? I was about to give some of the good breads inside my basket as I am about to go to the place where I told my workers to go after a day's work. It would not be so bad to help some people in the streets after seeing someone quite not in good shape da-ze." He pointed his left index finger to the big bag full of breads held by his right arm.

Amiko stared at the bread basket/bag-thing. "Huh? Oh, we're all in fine shape, actually. Kind of you to offer, sir. We could still snack on some during the journey we'll be taking, though, if you still wanted to offer some of your bread...Now if those two would just quit dawdling!" She sighed impatiently as she looked ahead at Kyuui and Shinji.

 

[Azureknight 773]

Akira got surprised about the situation and said to Amiko "Oh my da-ze! That is not good! Those two need to be at peace with each other da-ze!". Akira continued "I think that I'll be giving seven of these breads that I have to you guys. I have twenty workers and I guess I will be having some 40 pieces left for the bread party that we are about to celebrate this evening at around 9:30 in the beach area around the south eastern part of this city da-ze. BTW, in case you are asking why 20, because I have 10 in the otaku store and 10 working in the restaurant. My otaku store which had so many customers today has 2 cashiers and 7 attendants with a security guard. The restaurant had 10 people for it had 1 cashier, 1 security guard, 3 chefs and 5 waiters da-ze. We are having a motto of 'Simplicity over Complexity' in life for thats just how things should work here da-ze."

Akira handed over seven pieces of bread to Amiko "Here! Take these! I am about to go to the beach south east of this place da-ze." and gave a wink and a salute.

Shinji glanced down at Kyuui and shrugged. "Well it's tough to say.. I've just felt recently that I don't really need the bandages anymore..unless you want me to put them back on.." It had been a while since his inner demons had afflicted him. Perhaps it was because of Kyuui. Was it possible that she had somehow helped calm his soul? But still, that alone couldn't account for the fact that his demons had not even touched his mind for so long. Perhaps they were biding their time, but it was difficult to say. Shinji was even beginning to think they might just be a creation of his mind, although such an idea seemed preposterous with all that had happened to him.

"Anyway, let's be on our way!" Shinji gleefully grabbed Kyuui's hand and led her to a small house. It was a rather unassuming red brick house. Shinji knocked on the door and a young boy, no more than ten years old opened the door. He had short dark hair and large round glasses. Shinji rustled the boy's hair with his free hand. "Hello Largo. Is Ms. Kyuui's present ready?" The boy moved his head to the side so he could see Kyuui. "Ah, you brought Ms. Kyuui with you! I have the dog right here for her!" "I hope she likes him" Shinji thought to himself, chewing on his lip.

Soon, a large St. Bernard came cantering towards the door, its tongue hanging out.

"This ole dog is adventurous. He loves to travel and play! I'm sure he will get along with you all just fine. If you don't want him, I have other animals you might like! My mom picks up a few animals off the street and takes care of them." The boy continued to chatter on. Shinji looked at Kyuui expectantly, hoping that she liked the surprise.

((Uwaah~ you guys are driving me crazy-- I wan't to read more, but there have been zero replies.. xx ;A;
ROFL, what's going on? :x ))

 

[searchingsoul]

((lol Sorry for the wait...))

Kyuui was indeed surprised... She was happy about the dog, but she began thinking of how much he would have to eat daily... This sort of thing deserved a group decision, and at the moment, Kyuui would've given much to have Amiko there to give her input. "He's very friendly and cute! But how much food does he go through a day?"

Amiko, please show up so you can be the voice of reason! Kyuui thought fervently

((Oh, look at that! I'm researching for a Sim, but it would seem this thread has been deceased for longer than I realized. No point in playing necromancer now, but what fun this was!))

 

[meowmix]

Would you look at that... Two years have flown past. I cringe at some of my posts, hahahaha.. How are you guys?
