The Impossible Stars: Earth

Chapter 5: Jonas

I stood there in the middle of the room, noticing that the girl was watching. She wore all white and I was in all black. This was an awkward moment.

"My name is Hana Delphi." She said as she extended her arm.

I looked at her hand and shook it. "Jonas... Jonas Liker."

I heard her stifled a laugh and looked at her... soon realizing why.

"I guess our names are unique." I said softly.

"Yea... try having one like my friend's... err.. my teacher's name." She said still laughing.

"And?" I pressed.

"Ali Kichen." She replied and laughed more.

I laughed along with her. "I guess his name is more unique then." I laughed when I misheard the name as Ali Kitchen. But I knew it wasn't.

Soon we stopped laughing.

I caught Hana staring at me... I knew she was thinking of something.

"Now if only I could make you invisible so Ali wouldn't see you." She mumbled but I heard her and tilted my head at her.

"You could try." I finally said, not questioning anything.

This world was weird as it so I learned to not question everything.

"What's it like in the dark?" Hana asked me suddenly.

I thought about it for a moment then replied, "Not fun... my family... they are lost in the darkness... if you wish to call it that." I said softly.

"Oh... then you're like me..." She said softly as she looked down. "My family never followed so I guess they were lost."

"But the darkness... is not really evil." I said to assure her.

"I know. My master told me this." She told me as she looked up at the ceiling.

"Your master?" I asked, curious if she saw my master.

"Yea, he had made this tower." She said and I nodded slowly.

"My master told me about this tower... she told me about these stars." I said as I looked up at the ceiling and stared at them.

Then Hana held up her hand. I looked at her strangely when I finally took noticed.

"Time to make you invisible." She said as she closed her eyes.

I watched her as I felt warmth surrounding me. Something must be working.

"I've done it!" After a lot of practice of trying to make sure I was completely invisible. There was strange moments... but that's her tale to tell.

I stared at this strange girl and knew that my connection might be just with her.

I soon looked at the impossible stars above at the ceiling... and knew... my life was gonna be changed forever. No matter how wrong it felt.
