I looked at him and no sooner that I did, he disappeared. I gazed around for him but soon gave up. I was tired so I just sat helplessly on the rock in the middle of the river. It only took another few seconds for him to appear in front of me. Right in front of me. I was so startled that I fell backwards into the water, and he immediately lifted me by my collar and placed me back on the rock. I sat cross- legged and folded my arms, after looking up at him for a few seconds I realized that he wasn’t standing on the rock he was standing behind it. I leaned forward onto my knees to better see beyond the rock. The water beyond the rock wasn’t shallow and there was nothing to stand on, yet he was standing there, perfectly dry.
“Ah, you’ll learn Kiko… You’ll learn.” He smiled
‘Yea.’ I thought, ‘he’ll probably through me in the water again and watch me drown!’ I slunk back and folded my arms once more, “and who says I wanna learn?” I scowled.
“I do!” He beamed.
I opened one eye then realized something, “What’s your name anyway?”
“Okay, when you can swim across this river, no sweat, I’ll grant you the honor of knowing my name.”
“What honor?” I mumbled, “I just wanted to know what to call you.”
“Mistake number one,” His voice rose, “You said ‘I just wanted to know what to call you.”
“So?”
“So, why would you want to know my name if you were just going to runaway or leave soon? It’s a verbal sign that you’re going to stay. And I know enough about you to know your intentions for saying most of what you say.”
“Huh?”
“Mistake two, your only hopes of survival here is with me, so if you’re too mean I just might get upset and leave you. I have feelings too you know.”
“No you don’t”
Apparently I shouldn’t have said that because for the rest of the day he left me on the rock, while he was half the time crying in a corner… or pretending to cry.
As the sun shrank behind the trees my stomach yelped for the umpteenth time.
“Please can I have some food?!?” I called toward the shore, where a fire was blazing and the sweet smell of disgusting fish floated toward my nostrils.
“Not until you apologize and give me a hug!” He called back.
Ok I’m half starving so an apology doesn’t sound so bad, but there’s no way in-… I’m not going
“Besides Kiko, I thought you didn’t like fish.” He smiled.
“Well let me see,” I said loudly to him, “if it’s either fish or dying… What do you think I should pick.”
“If I was supposed to pick for you then I would be you and you would be someone else”
“HUH?”
“So how about that hug?”
“How can I hug you if you’re so far away?”
“Ah, so you’ll apologize then?”
“It would hardly be an apology, because I’m not sorry.”
He appeared in front of me and grabbed me in his arms. A hug.
“That’s what I wanted to hear!” He said and then something strange happened. It was like all of a sudden we were in slow motion but we were moving so fast. He ran so quickly I couldn’t blink before we were at the fire. He let me drop from my arms and said, “You’ve just experienced your first Light Dash.”
I coughed and gagged. I would have thrown up if I had anything in my stomach.
“So…” He said sounding innocent. “…Hungry?”
I glared up at him.
“Oh and what’s that look for?”
“What the heck did you just do?” I muttered still sick from the sudden jolt.
“I told you,” He smirked, “A Light Dash.”
I gave up on him; he had just walked on water and stalked me for two days. Not to mention the fact that he killed everyone in my village and burned it to the ground.
I snatched a fish from the heat of the fire, and chomped on it trying my hardest to not use any manners.
“Ah Kiko, you don’t seem very grateful.”
“Ah Sensei, what was your first clue?” I mumbled sarcastically.
“Perfect!” He shouted. I took a break from my fish to watch him thrust his arm in the air.
“What is it?” I sighed.
“Until you achieve the honor of knowing my name, you shall call me ‘Sensei’… Ok?” He said, and not wanting to repeat previous events I just nodded and finished my fish. He did the same.
