"Who are... you? And what are you doing here?"

"I'm Nayuta, and who are you?"

"Eirix..."

"Woah- you are an angel. You are so strange" he says and stands up quickly. "Can I touch your wings?"

Eirix dispels his ability and backs away from the boy and shakes his head. The angel holds his wings tightly behind his back so that Nayuta cannot touch him.

"Okay, I understand what you feel, but that's so strange" the boy 's face comes visible, and Eirix sees his full face. Nayuta's skin is white, and there are black stripes on his skin under his eyes, and he must have been about his age.

The boy's purple eyes almost lit up. His dark blue half-length hair is messy he has some white strands in his hair. He wears a blue crop top and black pants and red shoes.

"It's getting dark... so you better come with me if you don't want to die..."

"Why would what happened here? This place looks like peacefully" Eirix looks like a little confused because he was never on earth.

"You never know what can happen on earth... So now, you come with me, or you die" says in a cold voice.

"Fine, let's go"

The two boys are walking in the giant forest where it is getting colder and colder. Eirix starts to shake he covers himself with his wings.

"I think I'll call you Ei... or Rix... I don't know... your name is so strange."

"No... don't call me... like that..." his voice is shaking because he is still cold.

"It's just only the beginning of winter, and it will be even colder. But the snow is beautiful and tasty" he laughs a bit, and he continues the walk. "Don't worry, we will be there soon"

"Where?"

"In my master house... He is my friend and my boss"

---

Soon, they arrive at the house.

"Here we are..."

"What master?"

"Huh-? What do you mean."

"What a master your boss is?"

"He is a doll maker, don't worry, he's kind."

Eirix nods. They enter the house. The middle aged man sits in a brown couch and watches the TV.

"Mater Koen... how are you?"

"I'm fine... thanks, did you bring the ingredients?"

"Oh no, my bag... stayed in the forest"

"No problem... then you will go get that tomorrow. Who is this boy, Nayuta?"

"Oh- he is Eirix, and he is an angel."

"I see... he will stay here from that night?"

"Can he stay?"

"Yes, as long as he wants..."

"Thank you, sir... - Eirix bows to the man, but is still trembling. His body is cold and weak. He had never felt this way before because the temperature in heaven was always warm"

He feels a warm touch on his shoulder. Eirix looks at the blue haired boy. A simple "Are you okay?" was heard from the boy, and the angel just nods. The master doll maker stood up and draped a coat over his shoulders.

"Just warm up a little, okay" Koen says a comforting tone.

The doll maker was a middle-aged man with brown curly hair. His body was thin. His appearance was average and kind. Eirix is still anxious from that simulation.
