1x1 Jewels of Aether - Starting a new (ShirexTala)

"Are you okay?" Kiseki asked, looking at Kirito with worry. "I probably shouldn't have agreed to you carrying me..." She was feeling bad about her decision from earlier.

 

Kiseki sighed, looking at Kirito. "If you say so..." she was still worried and nothing Kirito said had assured her at all.

 

(Sorry for the late reply!)

"Sure!" Kiseki sat down beside Kirito, looking at the sky. "You know, this kind of reminds me with how Maria, Seline, you, and I used to camp together with everyone else. I miss them already..."

 

"Hmm, I wonder if we could try to see them again. That'd be fun, wouldn't it?" Kiseki wondered as she looked up to the sky. "But I guess they'd be too busy now."

 

Kiseki looked at Kirito's face with a smile in her face. She then turned her gaze back to the forest. She could faintly remember the time they first met. It was at Kandiun, Arania to be exact. They were there to witness the tournament.

At that time, she really couldn't come close to Kirito. She thought that maybe he was too serious for someone like her, so she kept to herself.

 

"Oh, uh," Kiseki looked at Kirito who laid his back on the ground. She was surprised by his actions since she was technically thinking about the first time she had met him.

 

(Sorry for the late replies - again. Life's been hard.)

Kiseki looked at Kirito for a moment before standing up. She sighed, thinking about things. She wasn't feeling too sleepy yet since the sun had just set. She walked around the area, not too far so she wouldn't get lost. Chieri stayed behind with Kirito and looked at the sky, remembering the time when she ran away.

 

While walking around the forest, Kiseki saw a number of Pokémon looking like they were hiding from something. She came closer to the tree and spoke. "Hello!"

The Pokémon were instantly surprised and took a few steps back in surprise. But when they saw that it was only a human, they breathed a sigh of relief. One of the Pokémon, a Pachirisu, came close to her.

"What are you guys doing out here in the dark?"

 

Kiseki sighed. "If only I can understand you guys." However, she still tried to deduce what Pachirisu was saying until it hit her - the Pokémon were all trying to stock food near the tree. She then noticed some claw marks on the tree as her eyes widened. "Wait, you mean that someone's stealing your food? Oh no..."

Kiseki tried to approach the tree, but when she did, the Zangoose came out from hiding. She couldn't help but reel back and yell in surprise. The Pokémon all ran behind Kiseki in fear.

 

"Oh, um, hi, I think these Pokémon own the food that you're, uh, guarding there," Kiseki was slightly panicking while she spoke, but she definitely tried her best. "I think they just want to get them back."
