Love Far Beyond the Ashes

Kobo's Questions

Zeta pov: I was rubbing Ela's back to soothe her when Kobo walked up to us. It has been a little bit since the two of us have talked.

"Why are you rubbing your back and stomach, Zeta?" Kobo asked

"She's sick," I replied.

"I know she threw up, but what happened?" Kobo asked

Ela and I genuinely didn't know what to say; she is too young to know what happened between the two of us, so how do we explain this in the most non-lewd way possible?

"You see, Zeta and I wrestled, and then we..." Ela looked at me, and she motioned for me to continue.

"I won?" I continued to say that Ela wondered why I said that in question form, but I don't have much to work with.

If Mumei-senpai was down here, I'm sure she'd be able to salvage this somehow. I don't know how, but she would straighten things, and then seeing her would make me black out.

Kobo kept asking us questions, and I don't know what to tell her except that there is nothing wrong with Ela other than the obvious elephant in the room.

"So is that the same thing my mommy and daddy do?" Kobo asked

Uhhhhh....yeah," I said.

"What the fuck are you telling Kobo?" Calli whispered into my ear. I didn't even know she was next to me.

"Im sorry!" I shouted before bowing to the ground. Calli laughed at us.

"It's fine, just don't tell Kobo anything too lewd; Kiara will murder me," She said.

The two of us nodded, and Calli-senpai walked back over to Irys. All of a sudden, I began to sense that Moona-senpai, Anya-senpai, and Ollie-senpai were probably here for Reine-senpai.

I was told to stop them before they got here, so I got up and began to run away.

"Where are you going?" Kobo asked me

"To quickly give our senpai a detour," I said.

"But why!?" Kobo asked

"Because Reine-senpai told me to!" I yelled

Then again, her question actually reminded me that I needed to grab Ela, I ran back and picked her up, beginning to run away with her, but Kobo followed me.

"How are you so fast!?" I asked

"I don't know, but I just want to be with you, Zeta!" Kobo cried out

"Ugh..." I ran over to Calli-senpai. "Can I take Kobo for a few seconds?" I asked her

She nodded. "You can, but if she gets hurt, you're dead." She growled as she summoned Ricky to scare me.

"Thank you!" I shouted before beginning to run again. Our senpai should be closer, but I can still intercept them before it's too late. I need to do so.

"Zeta, Kaela, and Kobo?" Moona-senpai said as she saw the three of us

"Reine-senpai isn't here." I panted

Really, because I sense her," Moona-senpai stated.

I shook my head in disagreement. "It's Kiara mimicking her," I said.

Moona-senpai wasn't buying it, nor was Anya-senpai, but Ollie-senpai was dumb enough to fall for it.

The two girls tried to pass me, much to Ollie-senpai's confusion, but I blocked them.

"If you want to pass, you'll have to fight me, but let me put Ela down since she's, you know," I said.

Moona-senpai and Anya-senpai understood, but Ollie-senpai didn't. "Don't worry about me," Ela stated.

I didn't want her to feel that she was acting like she didn't matter. She does matter, and she is really beautiful too, so I don't want her to get hurt.

"Auntie Reine isn't here!" Kobo said

Moona-senpai looked at Kobo and sighed. Since Kobo said it, she had to believe her. I don't know why Kobo said Reine-senpai isn't here. I expected her to tell them that she was, but that wasn't that bad.

"Are you sure Reine isn't here?" Anya-senpai asked

"Nope, Auntie Reine isn't there. I would know if she were here since she and Mommy are really close with one another!" Kobo said

"Fine, we'll look somewhere else." Moona-senpai said

That bought us I'd say three minutes, so Reine better hurry up and get her thoughts together. I don't know what she is thinking about, and I can't read minds like Mumei-senpai or Iofi-senpai, so it's rough for me. I don't really understand many things.

I trust that Reine-senpai is going to get the answer she wants. Mumei-senpai and Selen suddenly flew to the ground, slamming into it.

"One more lap!" Selen yelled

"Oh, because you lost! I was ahead of you the whole time!" Mumei-senpai said

"Yes!" Selen yelled

The two of them went into the air again and began to race. I wish I could fly so I could race those two. Moona-senpai saw Mumei-senpai and decided to ask her if Reine-senpai was here.

"Why did you help me lie?" I asked Kobo

"Because I like you, Zeta!" Kobo said

"Aww, how cute!" Ela stated

The two of us began to blush from embarrassment since Ela was teasing us both.

I wondered if I should go back to see Reine-senpai and tell her I did the mission or not, but to be honest, I should wait here since I don't want to move Ela around a lot.

Kobo is probably tired too after how much we ran to get here, and I don't want her to complain about anything because Calli-senpai and Kiara-senpai will literally destroy me if anything happens to Kobo.

"Beb, I feel sick!" Ela groaned

I ran back over to her and began to rub her back to soothe her. I need to keep doing this so she doesn't feel sick any more.

"Sorry, I'm being a burden," She said.

"What are you talking about? You aren't a burden!" I told her She smiled

I don't know why Ela would say that.
