I lay on the floor of my bedroom, sweating in this summer heat and a desire for an winter making machine burning in my mind. If only I have the money....If only I have the money, I wouldn't be melting right now!
"Aaaaa~, Please let this summer end~ Don't want to turn into a puddle of slime and water~ Winter come back~...Come baaaaack....*whining*."
Door burst open.
"Stupid Human!! When are you-- AAAA!"
*Groaning*
"You are melting, literally melting!"
"End me~ End me right noooooowwwww,"*Sobbing greatly*
"Ar--are you even human?!"
"Saaaavvveee MMEEEEEEEEE!!!"*While crying in misery*
Kenoji snap back to reality. He turn to the right and yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Aetre! Night is dying! Come help!"
A rush of loud footsteps came running. Fear enter me.
Is that Aetre or a giant?
Aetre came in and walk toward me with a smile on her face.
Ookay...looks normal...this is reality, right?
She slowly opens her mouth.
No. No way! She wouldn't--
A vortex of air surround me. Before I knew it, I...am...in her stomach.
*Muffle screaming*
"Okay. Let's head to the lake."
"Okay!"
I flop around in her stomach, feeling sick by the minute. Are they running?
Nine minutes past.
"We're here! Spit him out!"
"Here you go! Get well!"
I feel a lurch from the bottom. I then see a light in front of me, and before I know it, I was in the water and feeling myself solidifying.
"Woow! He is back in form."
"But...he is growing fins."
"....And light blue hair....?"
I feel excitement overwhelming me. Before I know it, I swim and swim, splashing in the water and laughing happily.
"......."
"......."
"Come back at sundown!"
"Don't forget us!"
...
...
Two Days Later..
"Heeeeeeyyyyy!!! Are you dooonne Yet??!!"
"Come home."
...
Those voices....they sound .... familiar...
I swim to them, curious.
...
It is those little humans again.
The tan one cross his arms in front of him and yelled at me.
"We are starving! How can you abandon us like that?! Are you stupid! Come on home and make dinner!"
I cock my head to the side and deeply confused.
Dinner? Does he mean fish? He wants fish? But he is not a fish type...
*Trills in confusion*
"Kenoji...He does not know what you mean. He is at it again."
"I know.."
The tan one sighs and steps forward. He then points at me and yelled at me.
"We are your Ukos! We are family! Got it! Your name is Night! Night Tsukiyama! Do you remember it now! Say something!"
...
Uko?
Where have I heard it before?
"Come on, Aetre...Let's go home.."
"Hmmm?"
"We'll...just find another place to stay in."
The pink one cries.
"Kenoji....we can't just abandon him...what if he--"
"If he gets napped, it is his damn fault!!"
Napped....Napped...place...it is.....Ooooh, home! Crap, what have I done?!
They are about to walk away when I grab them by the collar and heading home.
"Let's make dinner."
"Huh?"
"You don't know how to cook so how--"
"I only know fish."
"O."
After I came home, I immediately grilled fish and tried to make rice and pickles. Surprisingly, they came out very good.
I gave them the food and lay down to me side and bury in my thoughts.
"...."
"...."
"Hey!"
I jumped at the sudden words.
"Are you going to eat?!"
"You have not made some for yourself."
*Blushed greatly*
"What!?"
"Why are you blushing?"
I realized the feeling in my belly.
"....I ate fish in the lake...."
I then drooled uncontrollably.
"They are good. Tasty. Just like fresh salmon..*giggles and entering in his world. Of fish.*
I then jump up and came back to reality. I great idea came to me. I am planning...
"I am going to gather all the fish and bring them to my lair!"
I then began to put my plan to action.
"I'll going to kidnap them! No one will have them but me!"* laughing like a madman.*
"Come back!"
"Eat normal food."
"You stupid Human! Get your butt back here and eat!"
In the end, I was rounded up by the police. My boss have to explain the situation to them. The police look at me with pity and give me a good luck gesture. Saying: It is going to be okay, get well or we will take good care of you. Meaning....they are going to put me in a special and peaceful place. Far away from here.
Afterwards, I have to deal with a lecture and face and head slapping...from my boss and colleagues.
He then drag me back home with his hand grasping my ear. He push me inside my home and yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Take your medicine or I will shove it down your mouth!"
He then slam the door in my face and walk away fuming smoke out of his ears.
The next morning, after my medicine last night before bed, I wake up and feeling strange. I sat up in bed and just glance at the two.
"Are you You yet?"
"How do you feel, Night? Feeling better?"
*Stomach growling*
".....I feel like ...I could .....rob a fish store and not come back tomorrow..."
"...."
"...."
"Let's give him a douse. Just to be safe."
"Okay!"
Aetre them wipe out my medicine. It is a syringe with my green medicine in it.
She smiles wickedly and her eyes in a craze.
"Let's make sure he stays good.....foreeevverr."*Giggles evilly.*
A chill dig down and shoot up my spin.
I--I am dreaming. I have to be!
"N-no...I'll be good. Don't stab me."
Aetre walks slowly to me. Having a murderous grin on her face.
"No. Please. Just st-stop."
I back away against the window and trembling in fear.
"Please. T-turn back...to normal. Aetre?"
"YOU will turn back to normal when I am done with YOU!!"
She jump up and aim for my neck. Laughing like a murderous madman.
"AAAAAAAAA!"
I then black out.
~~~~
~~~~
I woke up.
Feeling calm...and lazy.
"What..... happen to me yesterday?"
I rub my neck. It is in pain.
"O-ow..."
The door open and the two little ones came. When he saw me, he sighs in relief.
"Finally, he's back. Such a troublemaker!"
Aetre gigged. It has a ... air to it. A cold air.
I swallowed in fear.
I get up and act like I didn't notice anything.
"I'll make breakfast."
"Sure. With grilled salmon and miso soup."
"Same.*Giggles*"
What the heck is wrong with you? Did I did something to you?
I pretend not to notice anything.
I head to the hall and was about to head to the kitchen when I feel a cold murderous stare down my back.
Is this Aetre? What happened to you?
" If you act like that again...I will jab that needle in you neck. Got it...?"
Yep. That's her.
"Yes ma'am."
"Okay! Now run along and make breakfast. Go, go."
I feel a change in the air. It went back to normal. She left and trotting as if nothing happened.
Great sweat drench down my head and back.
Crap, crap, crap! Did I went to Crazy Mode?! What the heck did I do?! I didn't do anything stupid, right?! Right?! Why is she like this?! What did I doooo?!
It took me a moment to calm down.
It's okay just...be good for now on...
"Why aren't you moving? Are you normal yet?"
I then ran to the kitchen. Feeling high tension in the air.
"I am making breakfast now! It'll be done in five minutes!"
"Good, good."
She trot away again. Having a care-free air about her.
From then on, I made sure to take my medicine everyday.
Just to not see that side of Aetre.
Just thinking about it....makes my skin crawl.
