An Invitation?

It was a normal day, pretty peaceful and enjoyable. I was in the kitchen and Kokoro was just arriving, then it hit me…The chocolate bars were gone!

My face turned to Kokoro’s and she gave a troublesome look but then agreed to come with me and buy more supplies.

As we walked through the forest and then through the town, our conversation turned to one subject.

“Ne Kokoro, it’s been a long time since we last saw someone of the club don’t you thinks so?”

“I guess everyone is busy…”

“Yeah you’re right but still shouldn’t we pay a visit to Kyuubi-san or something?” Before she could answer there was an explosion near our location and suddenly someone appeared in front of us.

“What the…” I was interrupted by Kokoro

“Biju.”She said, then the chakra hit my senses and I noticed that indeed the person in front of us was also a biju. The dust from the explosion began to vanish and then some more footsteps were heard; apparently the person was being chased, if it was a biju then that meant enemies…as a fellow biju why not helping right?

“Joining?” I asked Kokoro as she caught one of the persecutors

“I’ll do what I can here, but I’m not planning to go chasing for her” Her? Meaning a female…

“Wait for me please?” She nodded and so I was gone chasing for the female biju; when I arrived to the scene I was attacked by her; while I dodged the attacks my eyes noticed she already had defeated the enemies.

“Hey hey hey! Can you stop attacking me??? I’m not the enemy!” I began to say but she kept attacking; after some minutes of dodging I finally got the chance to stop her. “Like I was saying, I’m not the enemy!” What do I get for stopping dodging? Yes, a little wound on my arm…Great! Unintentionally a ball of electricity formed on my hand and when I was about to shoot it I stopped because she finally talked.

“So you too are a biju?” Wow, she sure knew how to change mood easily but still
she was unsure about talking.

“Yes, can you tell?” I said somehow upset about my arm.

“…Sorry about that…”

“It’s fine…Anyway why were you being chased?”

“ They took something precious to me and so I had to do something; when I got my object back they began to chase me…..Well that doesn’t matter anymore, I was looking for you” aha…That definitely sounded strange, could it be that she worked for them and everything was a trap? “Well not you but I’m guessing you are part of a club called The biju club?” Automatically there was a nod.

“Someone gave me this letter and told me to hand it to the leader of that club…” more suspicious…

“How can I prove I can trust you?”

“You can’t” She quickly said looking at one side; I could trust her.

“Would you like to come with me to pay a visit?” she looked at me with a strange face but followed when I began to walk towards Kokoro’s direction.

The rest of the trip was silent until we began to approach Kyuubi-san’s place; then there was a chaotic atmosphere.

“What is happening?” I thought to myself just to see Chiyoko-chan exiting the place

“Oh Hi Raijuu-kun, How are you?”

“Is everything all right Chiyoko-chan?” Was the first thing I said

“..not really, you see, Shukaku suddenly disappeared this morning and Yuri-chan is having a very bad time…not to mention that Onii-san is trying his best to keep things calmed for Suki’s sake…you know for the baby? ” Wait what? Suki was pregnant?? O_o and that’s how I noticed how much I did know from the other members…For Kokoro’s reaction slapping her forehead she apparently read my expression…

I tried to hide that fact and continued the conversation, explaining Chiyoko the situation; some minutes after she just said one thing.

“what color is it?”

“What color is is what?” I asked with a dumbfounded face

“The envelop of the letter” she said smiling; my face turned to the biju we met and she quickly showed a yellow envelop.

“Cool, it seems everyone is getting different colors!” Now the three of us were having the same face… Chiyoko began to laugh and then continued “You’re not the first ones that arrive; everyone else is in the backyard so why don’t you go there and wait till Nii-san calms things out?”

There was some silence as we nodded and headed towards where everyone else was.

“What’s your name?” Kokoro asked the new biju.

“…Meeko…”

“Kokoro”

“Raijuu” I finally said joining the monosyllabic conversation we were having.

I was amazed to see that almost all the members were at Kyuubi-san’s backyard; the amazement vanished and was replaced with happiness; yet curiosity was killing me.

“ne Meeko, do you happen to know what is inside of this envelope?” A negative answer…damn it…

My question was answered when another member began to talk; it took me some seconds to identify who was it.

Ok...I hope this post was fine to start the new storyline...if not...feel free to change anything...

I hope I got Meeko's personality!
