Love Far Beyond the Ashes

Small Request

Mumei pov: Kiara and I walked towards the others; I passed Iofi and apologized to her, and I passed Zeta, apologizing to her as well.

"Where is Selen?" I asked Zeta

"In the other room," she said.

"Speaking of Pomu, where the hell are you?" Kiara asked

"You almost killed me when you flicked me," Pomu said.

"But I didn't kill you." Kiara said

"That isn't the point!" Pomu shouted

I just ignored them and went into the room Selen was in, and I waited for Kiara to begin to talk. Selen just sat there, not saying anything. I read her thoughts and smiled at what she was thinking.

"You really are sorry for what you did in the past," I said.

"How did you know?" Selen asked

"I read your mind; I'm sorry for not believing you, but I've been too selfish to go back," I said.

"Nah, I've kind of been a jackass as well. I was egging you on purpose, and I didn't think about how you would feel about that," Selen said.

"Huh, you two really got over this really fast," Kiara said.

"Well, we don't really have that much animosity toward each other," Selen said.

"Well, that's debatable." I said

"Okay, just make up so we can move on." Kiara said

"Hold on, Kiara, can you leave for a minute?" I asked

"Yeah, I can," she said as she walked out.

As soon as the coast was clear, I began to talk again. "So you want to talk about love?" I asked

"I do?" She asked

"Yeah, love is on your mind," I said.

"Yes, there is someone I love, but I will not think about her so you can't read my mind," Selen said.

"Is it that fairy girl?" I asked

"N-no, of course it isn't Pomu!" Selen yelled in embarrassment, "She's a dumbass!"

"I really don't believe anything that comes out of your mouth," I said.

"Can I request something?" Selen asked.

"Yeah, what is it?" I asked

"Please don't tell Pomu that I may possibly have a little crush on her." Selen sighed

I smiled suddenly and began to laugh. "Don't worry, I won't." I chuckled

"What is wrong with you?" Selen asked

"Nothing," I said. "Actually, I have a request for you." I told her

"And what is that?" Selen asked

"Go out with me," I said.

"Wait what..." Selen said she was shocked at what I said.

"I'm joking, I would never date you," I laughed. "I actually want to go out with you for awhile," I told her.

"Elaborate..." She said

"Just an outing, you dumbass..." I said

"Oh, okay, yeah, that should be fun!" Selen said

"Why are you so flustered? Do you want to date me?" I asked

"No, of course not!" She yelled

"I have two wives, so that's kind of gross." I said

"Well, some people may say that polygamy is gross," Selen said.

"I'm going to punch you...." I sighed as I stood up and cracked my knuckles.

"Well, I'm going to punch you!" Selen yelled as she stood up.

The two of us simultaneously punched each other in the face so hard that we both got stuck in place.

"Are you two fighting again?" Kiara asked

"No," we said in unison as we fell to the ground.

"Are you okay?" Kiara asked

"Uh, I can't move," I said.

"Me neither..." Selen said

"How hard did they punch each other?" Pomu asked

Plants formed around me, and they picked me up. "Mumei!" Fauna said softly as she hugged me.

"Move..." Kronii growled as she pushed Fauna out of the way to hug me.

"You don't need to be so rude," I told Kronii and Fauna, who were fighting over me.

"You are so lucky. You have two cute girls on top of you, while I have no one," Selen said.

"I'll help you up!" Pomu said

"Wow, thank you," Selen sarcastically said.

"That's not how you win her over," I mouthed to Selena.

"Shut up..." She mouthed back to me.

"What are you saying to each other?" Kiara asked

"Nothing," I said.

"That is not true," Kiara said.

"Whatever...." I groaned, "Sana, are you okay!?" I yelled

"Meimei, I'm feeling better!" Sana said

"Well, it's time to land back on earth," I said.

I went back into the main council room and placed my hand on Sana's shoulder. Ina pressed her hand to Sana's chest and said, "Start now!" I said

Sana began to manipulate space once again, and suddenly we left the moon, landing on another planet.

"Where the hell are we?" I asked

"Who knows?" Sana said.

"You should, but I'll let that slide." I sighed

"Mumei, we probably won't be able to get back because something keeps changing the course of the council room before we can get back," Selen said.

"Hmmm... that makes zero sense," I said.

"Well, maybe there is a mysterious force," Ame said.

"So what should we try?" Ina questioned

I pulled out my phone and smiled since I somehow had service. I tried to call Reine, and then I tried to call Lui-nee, who picked up, but the call was kind of cutting out.

"H-ello...." Lui-nee said

"Lui, can you hear me?" I questioned

"Y-eah, I can," she said.

"Hold on, Sana, can you call Koyori?" I asked

"Uhhh, what's the number?" She asked

"Uhm... I didn't know," I said.

"Mumei-senpai, I had Koyori stabilize the connection," I said.

"Okay, so can you scan the perimeter of the council building?" I asked

"Yeah, it seems fine," Lui-nee said.

"Then why can't we go back?" I asked

"Maybe you have to help Sana manipulate space, like help her get to the destination since her powers are acting iffy," Lui-nee said.

I thought about it and wondered if it was possible for me to bend space. I questioned it since I should have some powers like all the council members.

Maybe I would need a bit more power; maybe Selen can help me with this.
