Kyra relaxes on the sofa in the living room. As she looks about the room, she realizes something is amiss. Everything is just as she left it, but it was a little
When Ryin finished her shower, she knew something was up. Slipping into her fur robe, she went to investigate. Much to her surprise, she found Kyra cuddling something in her lap on the sofa. As she crept up from behind, she could hear Kyra talking in baby talk to it and started to get upset. Here, she gets all worried that Kyra is hurt, and all that has happened is that Kyra has found some new TOY?!? Then, a single thought permerates her brain, "I am not a toy." This startled her so much that she fainted right there.
As Ryin came to, she noticed two things. First, she was dressed in her nightgown and was lying in her bed. Second, she realized that Kyra was talking to her mystery object still. "Oh, yes." Kyra was contiuing. "Fainting seems to be very common in their family. Why, I can remember when Chaz found out that Ryin was his sister. Oh, he was out like a light!" Ryin could hear Kyra's boistrious laugh echoing thru the house, but she could swear she could hear another voice chukling with her. "My god," she thought. "It wasn't a dream. SOmething really is out there." So, she did the only thing she knew to do in a situation like this: She screamed.
Kyra dashed in like the Esper she was, and gave Ryin a big hug. "Oh there, there." she soothed as she quelled the disraught Ryin. "B-b-but you're talking and...and some voice enters my head and then you laugh and...and...and..." "Oh, hush now." the voice echoed thru the room. "Am I that scary. Sheesh, Kyra. You'd think she'd never seen a Musk Cat before." And there, at the bottom of the bed, was a male Musk cat. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Chaos. And as I've explained to Kyra here, I have to stay with you untill I've repaid my debt." "What Debt?" Ryin asked brethlessly, still in awe that she was talking to a species that was rumored to be extinct. "Well," Chaos began as he walked up the bed. "You saved my life when you killed that Grasshound. So, I must stay with you untill I repay my debt. But enough about that. We have a big day tomorrow, and since you two obviously want to be left alone I'll show myself out. Bye, Kyra. See you in the morning!" And with that, Chaos left the room, and pulled the door shut with his tail as he did so.
"Kyra," Ryin began as she slowly sat up. Just how did a musk cat get on Motivia, and why did he say that we wanted to be left alone?" "Well," Kyra began as she moved to the other end of the bed. "It seems he stowed aboard one of the shuttles the Espers use to travel around the universe, then he accidently got captured by that Grasshound and was going to be eaten by it. But, when I...uh, I mean when WE killed it, the Chaos decided to come to follow us untill it could repay its debt to us."
"O.K.," Ryin said with a smile. "Musk cats and my family go way back. But what I'd really like to know is why he said we'd want to be left alone. Come on, Kyra. Spill it" "Oh, uh...Heh-heh." Kyra began as she grew more nervous. "Well, you see Chaos and I were talking and...well, I kinda..." "Kinda what?" Ryin said with a glint in her eye. ""I said that I liked you, O.K.?" she rushed out. She looked over at Ryin ashamedly, half expecting her to bolt away, or to start screaming. But all she did was sit there, just looking. The tention grew inside of her as Ryin just kept looking at her, untill finally she just screamed, "OH, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SAY SOMETHING!!!"
Ryin didn't say a word. She just quietly slid over to Kyra and gave her a hug. "Oh, Kyra." she breathed gently. "If only you'd told me sooner, what a time we could have had. But never fear, for the night is still young, and we have our whole lives to enjoy this new tuwist in our relationship" "Then your not mad?" Kyra cried as she glanced up at Ryin with tears of joy in her eyes. "Mad? Why how could I be? I've felt the same way for you since the day I first laid eyes on you. Now, come slip into bed with me, and I'll show you just how glad I am." Kyra slid into Ryin's arms, and they fell into a kiss that was filled not with passion or need, but of the love two people can share throught a lifetime. And as the fell back onto Ryin's bed, ryin whispered softly, "Now, my little Esper. I'll show you just how we on Motivia heal the souls of the ones we love..."
"What time izzit...?" "Well," Kyra answered as she slipped into her undershirt and pants. "Hmm? Why are you gettin' dressed?" Ryin asked puzzled. "Well," Kyra answered as she got dressed, "We're still going to that meeting, aren't we?" "OH CRIPES!" Ryin bellowed as she bolted from the bed and into the bathroom. "Good." she called from the other room, "My armor is still here. Hey Kyra, check the pantry and see if we have any non-perishables on hand. From the sounds of it, we'll be gone a while."
"Will do!" Kyra cried as she slipped into her armor and went into the kitchen. There, she was greeted by not only Chaos, but also a breakfast of eggs and cereal. "Oh, Chaos! How did you..." "Oh, it wasn't me." he purred out gently. "Alys came over a little while ago and fixed that up for you girls to help you get through the meeting today. "That's my mom!" Ryin called as she sat down and began eating. "Come on, guys. Let's get this down, then head up to the hunter's guild. Something tells me this will be a long day..." and with that, they all began breakfast.
