• I was listening to the end of Ai's and The Stranger's conversation. I heard Ai say, "When do you have to see them?"
    "3 days," he answered. "I have to bring her along."
    "Ok, but you got to explain to her what to do, and answer any questions she has." Ai said. Ok so they are talking about me. Where am I going in 3 days? I didn't want to go anywhere! I lay down and closed my eyes. A few seconds went by. Then I remember something. Jiro! I sat up immediately.
    "Jiro," I said. Oh my god, I completely forgot about him. I have to call him, I have to tell him that I'm alright, well for a freak. Where my damn phone. The door opened. I looked up to see who it was.
    "Hello."
    It was the stranger. "what r u looking for?" he asked.
    "My Phone," I answered. I went back to searching.
    "Why?" he asked.
    "Because I need to call Jiro and tell him that I'm all right." I said a little bit louder this time. "He's probably worried sick," I said.
    "You can call him later," He said.
    I stopped searching and said, "Your not the boss of me."
    "No, but I do want to take care of you," The Stranger said.
    I looked at him like are you kidding me?
    "Look, I didn't want to at first, but I didn't know that the change would be sooo..soo painful. It scared me to death. I want it to stop, I wanted you to stop shaking, your eyes to go back to what they were not death like. Finally you started to ease up, everything went back to normal." He explained.
    "Normal?????" I yelled. I was going to say more but he cut me off.
    "The change last for about 24 hours," he said. "I'm sorry to put u through that." He looked like he meant it too.
    "You should be," I said. No one said anything for a few seconds. Then The Stranger said, "Sorry I should introduce myself. My name is Akio Okasho. My..uhhh...”
    "Wife," I corrected him
    "Yes wife, my wife is Ai and my child is Choko." He said, but he wasn't finished.
    "Listen, we have to go and visit the Royals. The Royals are in charge our species, and they found out about u."
    "Oh," I said.
    "How many are there," I asked.
    "Well there’s 3 royals and the rest you call servants. But the servants are not like what you r used to. You'll understand when you meet them." He said.
    "Do any of them have any powers?" I asked.
    "How do you know about 'powers'?" He asked me.
    "Well because i think I have powers." I explained.
    "Oh," he said. "Why do you think that?"
    "I think I can put thoughts in people's minds," I said.
    "Well, that is possible, and if that’s true, that would explain a lot," he said. "Ok, The Royal who has powers is Chiyo, he's the top Royal. The Second Royal is Renjro, he doesn't have any powers, and the 3rd Royal is Reizo, he sort of got powers. He can see little of the future, but not often.""Do you have any powers?" I asked him.
    "Yes," he answered. "All my family does. I can talk to any kind of animal, mammals, and amphibians. Ai can make things move without even touching them, kinda like a puppet master. And Choko can freeze stuff and explode things. Not like freeze like icles, like freeze like statues.
    "Hmmmm..." I said. "Why are we going in 3 days to the Royals.?"
    "Because they r getting prepared for YOUR visit." He answered.
    "Oh," I said.
    "Look, can you wait to talk to..uhhh...Jiro, just until we figure something’s out. Please!" He pleaded.
    "Fine, but I'm not waiting a week to call him, got it??" I stated.
    "Got it," he confirmed.
