LOST IN SNOW

Fifth Step

There have been several accidents in our locality ever since my graduation day. There have been many areas marked red. A lot of road accidents, theft and many people are missing. On an average there are about ten people every day. It is really scary to step out but there is one more problem and of course that is yato. It is the second day of my college and he is again following me.

"Good morning miss."

"It is you mister competitor. Well my name is Hina."

"Good morning Hina, and my name is Decha."

"I didn't see you yesterday, I thought I won, but I guess we both made it."

"Congratulations miss Hina."

"I have been thinking of asking you this after we meet the last time. Are you not a Japanese?"

"I am but I am not."

"What?"

"My mother was Japanese and my father is from Thailand. My mother's last wish was that I study in Japan, and Tokyo university is where she graduated from."

"Congratulation on completing your mother's wish and all the best for ahead."

"Hope we can be good friends. Where is your friend? Can I hang out with you guys, I don't know anyone here?"

"Sure, you can. Also, her name is Yuno, she has gone to buy some drink."

"There is one more question. Who is he standing behind you? He has been there for a long time. Is he your friend?"

"Hi, Dencha. Right now, I am her stalker but also future husband."

"Umm! My name is Decha. Hina is he your boyfriend?"

"No, he is just a pervert crack head following me around just keep ignoring him."

"Oh Ok!" Decha looked really confused but he continued hanging out a lot with us.

I meet Decha during the entrance. I was really nervous but he came and gave me a candy and told me to relax and challenged me. He took away all me worries in just a second. Now we are good friends. We three, oh we four I should say, Yato don't leave us. Expresses his views when he no one asks him to. Joins any of our group project when no one needs his help. Joins us in café when no one invited him. Decha and Yato seem to close now but sometimes they start fighting out of the blue. Yato is a good guy only when he behaves normally. I guess we are also a bit close now but I always yells at him.

*A week later

Professor Luke gave us a group assignment and we all four were working on it. It was getting late. It was dark when we stepped out of the library to go back to our home.

"Hina it's too late. Should I drop you and Yuno?" Decha asked it out of concern because of the recent news.

"I am strong I can protect myself and Hina chan, you don't need to interrupt our lovely walk."

"Ok but be careful."

Yato sat there silently. He didn't say a word as we left. That boy is just so moody and does things in a weird way.

"Bye Hina chan."

"Go inside you runny nose."

"Ok I am going but be safe."

There are no stars today. The sky is covered with clouds. It will probably rain tonight.

"So, I think I found you. Many have been looking for you so called Hina", a low-pitched voice came from behind.

It wasn't Yato who is following me, the voice is different. It is too dark I don't want to turn around but I have to confront this person."

As soon as turned behind a sudden breeze flowed and there was no one. I could feel something bad is going to happen. I don't feel pretty safe here I just have to return back home fast.

*At a distant

"Why were you following her, how do you know her?" Yato asked a guy whom he pinned against the wall holding his neck.

"Ha ha ha hah." That man gave an evil laugh even though he was gasping for air.

"If I am not wrong you are coming from where I belong, aren't you? But what are doing here and scaring her. Why do you know her name?" Yato questioned him, tightening his hands around his neck.

"I was just trying to have some fun with her", said that man spitting out blood.

"But how do you know her and who are searching for her?"

"She smells good you know." That man said giving Yato an intense look.

"So, you don't know either what you are doing, very well then Mr. Yato." The guy gave Yato a sharp look and escaped with a flash of light.

The man flew and was in a street filled with darkness only a ray of light. There appeared another man he was covered in pitch black.

"What's the news kagami?" Asked that man in black.

"Hmm, interesting he don't know what he is looking for. Both of them are far from the reality. Seems like we were worried about nothing. It was just a waste of time." Explained Kagami, the one who was with Yato a while ago.

"Don't take them too lightly. They can take over the whole universe if they come together. For now, leave everything to my daughter." Spoke the man in black.

"Your daughter, it will be fun watching them."
