—KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—I slowly open my eyes—it feels heavy—to the sounds of knocking and moms voice."Rin… Rin can you hear me?""I closed my eyes for a moment."I whisper to myself. How long have I been… napping? I don't think I've been into nap that long. Give or take, 20 minutes I closed my eyes.Standing up my whole body is once again enveloped in pain. I stand before sink. I see my reflection and something I didn't expect. My eyes have bags… I wasn't crying or anything. So why?Maybe I'm now feeling the after effects of what happened yesterday? Thanks to the adrenalin which kept me from feeling any pain. But right now my body feels like it's been battered all over. Looking at myself, expression and all, it's just depressing.Bearing the pain I walk to the door, unlock it and open just a little so only I can see her."Are you okay, hun? …You look terrible."That's a mother for you. Trying to hide my face behind the door isn't enough. Intuition, I guess. She has a gentle, ca
"What's going on?" My husband enters and looks startled to see the two detectives. Although he immediately calmed down when he saw the lady detective who looked nice in her suit. "Morning Nonako-sama." He nods and looks over to me. "They're here for Rinji…" I reply his questioning look then look back to the detectives. "You mind telling us what's going on? Why do you need Rinji at the station?" I asked them. "Is it that serious?" Darling asked leaning to the wall opposite me. "It is… It's concerning the resent murder cases as you have probably heard on the news…" "Wait do you think Rin is responsible for that?!! I know Rin is a lot of things but he isn't capable of such atrocities." Orino lashed. If she didn't I would have anyway and I can definitely say so for my Husband. "Not at all. We believe he saw something and we would like to have his statement." He said taking the coffee up for another sip. That would definitely explain his behaviour. Don't tell me he saw someone
With those harsh words, Rinji left and out the house. I, Mr. Nonako, stood there my hand reaching out. I didn't have the right to yell at him. He was right. We weren't there and we could not have known how he felt being in that situation. It must been an extremely terrifying experience for him. But his outburst and everything is making me more worried. I can say the same thing for my wife and daughter. Rinji isn't the type to just flare up, no matter what was going on. So this tells us how grave the situation was. "I'm really sorry." I turn to see my wife standing and her head lowered apologizing to the detectives. Rinji, had a point there. Why did it take them so long to come? What was the odds that my son would have survived that encounter? And should it have fallen below zero what would they have done? I'm starting to share his anger… but before I could speak… "I understand how he feels. It must have been a pretty tough situation. But he was strong to keep calm, most people wo
"And why would I?" "For your own interest." Okay? Vague… Interest? I have no interest… except you! "And where would that be?" "You'll soon find out." She totally working the mysterious vibe. "I do mind. Don't get me wrong I would definitely follow a woman as gorgeous as you anywhere, being the teenager I am. Which sensible man wouldn't? But I just met you and all and you look shady as hell… besides I was told never follow strangers no matter how beautiful they are. For all I know you want to kidnap me and demand for ransom or harvest my organs. So no thanks." I said, standing and walking during the last words. I said that! I really said that! I've aways wanted to say that line to a girl, but please don't kill me for saying that. Where did this confidence come from? I'm still terrified saying it, but it just flowed out. "Nothing you do or say would interest me." I pocket my hands saying that
"…but even you should have pieced it by now." She added so bluntly. Called it… but the implications are huge. That… that means monsters exists! Even in this world? I thought they where nothing but fictitious stories and myths spun to scare children and adults alike… But they are real… That means there is truth to some of the stories out there. I don't know what to feel right now. Awe or terrified? On one hand the fact I almost died because of one and on the other hand the fact of their existence, if know to the public, would lead to panic. But people wouldn't call all those with experience in meeting them first hand crazies.And on a further view, the possibilities of a world beyond ours. Come to think of it, why should it be such a surprise? I'm taking this surprisingly calm. Am I calm? I'm not that sure. This really isn't such a big drop especially after seeing one and almost becoming its food. I feel totally calm… I think I'm calm…
She continues on and I hesitate for a moment before I follow… After a few minutes of walking down the corridor she comes to a halt in front of dual door. It looks more like a conference room than an office. "Stay quiet until you're asked to speak." I stop beside her and she grabs the handle, with a twist and pushes the door in. She enters and I follow in suit. Right on the money. The big but not absurdly. It's almost empty, slightly dim and with only a few decors. It definitely isn't an office, more like some executive conference room. There is a conference table in the middle of the room. It's a block-shaped of 'U'. Seated is a man—he looks young—in unbuttoned dark blue blazers and wearing a white with thin dark stripped shirt at the far end of the table and on the sides— Huh!! What the hell am I seeing. Are those hologram? There are seven individuals on both sides of the table and a couple others standing by, transparent
I reach for the handles… I look at the director. "I'm just going to go out and say. It sounds like a sales pitch." "You caught on. That's great! People find it difficult but you saw right through it…" He said, clearly excited. I pull open the door… and what do I see before me? Nothing. It looks so dark I can't see anything even with the door open. It looks like I'm staring into an abyss. Seriously? What the hell is this? I'm starting to feel they are the loony ones. However, mid-turn to say something to him a hand pushes me from behind and I go through the door. It felt like I passed through a thin wall of fluid. The sensation felt like a thin blanket of water. It felt like I floated through something if only for an instant but it felt a bit long. It makes wonder is this how floating in space would feel like? Mhm? I though I saw something in the dark expanse. A flash of a figure… I might be seeing things… I catch
Part 2 You know what, I kinda thought it would take longer for me to ponder on it. But being a bit 'logical' is a scary thing. It's been two days since I went to convent and also the third day of locking myself in my room, skipping school. I may have come to a conclusion but what do I tell my family? It's a secret agency for crying out loud. I can't exactly just walk up to them and say 'hey guys I'm going to join a secret agency that fights the supernatural so please don't be worried about me' now can I? For get being crazy they'd say I'd gone and join some religious cult, well not exactly far from the truth considering the convent and when you add the magic and whole supernatural creatures and other worlds exist. Totally sounds like one. I think if I did accept the deal maybe they will take care of that, I guess. So it shouldn't be a problem. I think. I just got out of the shower and into my room. Which is the third streak that I haven't encountered Or
