Date A Live : A Distasteful Joke

Chapter 7 ; The Moon and Rain

Splash Splash Splash

The water from the puddle flew in the air, as she jumps from one puddle to another. She was enjoying her time, like a child would.

Yet, her smile was a solemn one.

The rabbit puppet on her hand turned to her. " Ora Ora, dont be like that Yoshino. You should be happy since no big blob formed when we appeared. " The puppet state, as the puppet pats her head.

A small smile etched on her face. Lacking the solemn feeling.
" You're right. Thank you, Yoshinon. " She pats the rabbit's head back.

" Hu hu hu, pet me more Yoshino!~ " The rabbit chimed, as she clings more into Yoshino.

Yoshino's smile brightens at there antics. " Sure sure. "

Rain

The slow cry from the sky continued. Yet, it didn't bother the girl. She only looked up at sky, enjoying the calming sight as she continues to pet Yoshinon.

" The rain is beautiful. " The smile continued to etched on her face, with her glistening eyes.

" Indeed it is, Yoshino. " The hare puppet answered back as she clings onto Yoshino.

Looking at the sky, her thoughts wandered. ' if only this could last a little longer. ' Her solemn smile returned.

' If only, I didn't destroy things when I appeared. ' Her eyes began to be crowded with water.

' If only I wasn't like this... ' Her lone thoughts echoed without any halt.

Step Step Step

The footsteps that she heard made her frown. Footsteps were nothing new, unless she were alone. From her past experiences, this was either a sneak attack or a frontal assault.

A lone tear slides off her cheek. ' This is my life now... '

She could only tear up in her situation. ' She has no choice in this matter. She has no control.  It was her destiny to be continuously chase by the weird people. ' she smiled solemnly.

'And someday... Be killed... '

Just like a turtle and the hare.

With a heavy heart, she turned around. Facing who ever will get her this time.

There was no hurt in seeing the identity of who will kill her.

' Sorry, Yoshinon... '

' Afterall, atleast seeing it once will make her soul rest. ' She smiled at the thought, and halted it.

Unaware to her, she wasn't this jaded before.

Bump Bump Bump

' So this is the embrace of death... ' Tears began to flow on her cheek sliding down to the ground.

' I'm scared... ' She pleaded to no one.

Huff Huff Huff

Her breath was hagard as she looked at the approaching man, feeling hopeless. Yet, just like any other time, she looked at her puppet, Yoshinon.

It filled her with hope.

With this little hope, she continues to look at her puppet.

Yoshinon.

Her hero.

But, she didn't respond.

Yoshinon didn't say anything. Only looking liflessly at the approaching man.
