Chapter 105: 106. Wave

"Listen to me! That creature is not your Zie anymore! The seal is very weak now so I almost since none of the presence of that spirit. you just have to be very careful." She warned me, pulled my collar. "He has turned into a demon with little conscience still remaining in him. If he helped you today, it was just luck," She added curtly. 

When I arrived, I just stood in front of the gate with my lips cut and my body full of sand, unlocking the gate with my shaky hand. Mirai came to approach me and she looked confused. "Sister Tha?" I  ignored her and staggered to my bathroom. 

"She needs some rest. You sleep with me!" I heard Winnter lock the door. And when I went back from the bathroom, she and Mirai went into my mother's room. 

That afternoon Winnter and Mirai picked me up at school. I was surprised when they took me to meet azalea. "I thought you would leave me." They even took Mickey. I was about to go home but I left my bike at school when they turned up at my school. We took a bus to go there. 

"I don't like things hidden from me. I need you to tell Azalea about that marionette that helped us that night. I also want to hear the complete version directly from you, and we will ask the next steps we should take to catch that creature." Said Winnter firmly. She held Mirai's hand, leaving me to cross the street to the bus stop across the street from where I stood. 

I watched her and Mirai crossing the street until they reached another end, then they sat down on a bench at that bus stop. A moment later a woman was checking her cell phone and ignored teenagers by her side. 

I wished I had such courage like her, doing anything she liked with all the strengths she had with full awareness and conceptualization. 'Can I do that?' I asked myself, doubting myself. 

I crossed the street after them. I knew we had to reach the portal before the sunset because it would be very difficult to walk in the forest to reach the portal when the night was down. 

There was something bothering me about Winnter. First, she had a sense of hearing above normal men. It was pretty understandable because she was not fully human like me and Mirai, but half a wizard. I remembered once again what she did last night when she circled Aras. Why did she do that? Was that kind of a ritual or things like that? 

"Winnter?" I poked her arm, who was sitting in front of me. 

She turned around. "What?" She asked curtly. 

I smiled innocently so as not to provoke her, "Can I ask you something?" I was waiting for her signal of yes. "That night, you moved around Aras, was that kind of a ritual to calm it down?" such words just slipped off my lips after I got a gesture to go on. Such curiosity pushed me so hard that I could not help it.

"No, it was not a ritual at all." She seemed to get confused when she explained to me. "It was just my way." She finally came up with something like "I don't have such great eyes like you." She smiled. To be honest I was quite surprised to hear her statement. 

"For you, Aras is like a big horse with hollow horns that is able to produce such a beautiful melody. For me, Aras is just a wave with significant frequency. I circled it because I wanted to familiarize myself with it." She explained. It sounded wonderful, didn't it? the skill she had was so unique. 

"When Aras moves, it creates a wave in a certain frequency that moves along the air surrounding it. That way I can detect that wave, study it and mark it as Aras' so that when I come across with that wave I will easily recognize it as Aras." Then she patted my shoulder softly.

"Tha, it can be said that we look at the creatures our own way, you see your environment with your eyes, I am with my head," Winnter added. 

"Is that like sonar?" I asked to make things clear for me.

"It may look similar, but actually it is a bit different. What I do is trapping the wave and familiarizing it with it, while sonar uses the bouncing of sound waves to detect things in front of it, with certainty the distance of that thing from the ship." I nodded incomprehension. 

Mirai was busy playing with Mickey who was sleeping. That girl ruffled his thick fur playfully. I looked out of the window, feeling so tiny in such a huge universe where there were a lot of great people who owned varied skills and specialties. 

…

We were even still far from the portal but I was able to see Yoru handling a torch made of fireflies for lighting. "Yoru?!" I called him automatically. 

"Thank goodness I met you here." He said as he walked fast towards us. "Tha, Miss Azalea wants to meet you. It seems there is a problem". 

We hurriedly walked through the portal to meet azalea. Yoru said that he didn't really know what the issue was about, he was just ordered to pick me up. I felt something bad had happened and that involved me, again. 

Once we arrived at the place, Yoru directly took us to the meeting room, and other searching teams were arriving too, including Naar. 'Are we late? What is going on? Why am I blind at all?' some parts of me underestimate myself for being so stupid. I also saw Mr. Oka was in the room, he was sitting next to Azalea and arguing about something. Everyone looked in our direction once we showed up, while we were looking back at them with a confused look. 

"Are we making any problems?" Winnter whispered. 

I shook my head because I really didn't know what was going on. "Perhaps our team is the last to come?" I asked back.

Azalea opened the meeting by asking every one of us about the progress of our search to get Aras. The first team lost two members, while one remaining planned to resign from the mission. 

"I don't know how to stand with I am standing alone. That creature terrorized us that night when my friends were trying to catch it. We were staying in a tent in the forest when suddenly we heard the horse's footsteps outside the tent and a strain of the horrifying melody." He said. 

"I wrapped my body with a blanket and covered my ears with a pillow. I opened my blanket after I curled up for some time, I found out two of my friends had died. It happened so fast. After we tried to catch it, it turned to hunt us." He added.

The second team told the same story. They lost one member until Azalea sent Naar for a backup for them. I felt a bit weird when they said it was Aras that attacked them. I might have experienced that but I felt that that animal was not aggressive at all. Finally, it was our team's chance to tell what we faced in the search and how far we made the progress. Winter asked me to speak at that meeting as I was the leader. 

"We met Aras just twice," I saw other teams whispering to each other, they might think how slow we were. Except for Naar, he paid attention to my explanation. "Two days ago was our second meeting. I think that animal is not dangerous," This time they looked like they disagreed with my statement. 

"The melody produced from its horns was so calm and soothing. I and Winnter ever spent so many hours sitting with other animals there to listen to that melody. We simply need to ask and speak to it softly, not catching it forcefully. I believe if we are aggressive to it, it will even more aggressive. And I am sure that we are nowhere to be able to compete with its strengths." I just realized it at the second meeting with that animal.

"They understand our utterance, and I feel they have reasons to go from this place. Perhaps, catching it and taking it home isn't the best way. It will be useless. It has a strong will to find out what it is looking for, I don't know what it is."  I saw one of them was a bit nervous when I said Aras was looking for something. 

"No matter how often we take it back, it will always cross to find what it is looking for.. I am thinking about helping it find what it is looking for so that Aras will go home sooner," azalea looked satisfied with my explanation, and I just smiled in response to it.
