A date with the Moon

Oriente 6, Heaven

I couldn't believe it, I was on my way to the forest where a goddess tried to kill me and almost freeze to death yesterday. But I had to do it because I must meet my family as soon as possible, tell them that I am fine and alive, and for that I must get out of here and return to earth.

This time they lent me a nice coat and pants. Also to try to erase the bad impression of yesterday I brought a cake that Momo helped me buy to give to Tamamo as an apology. Although it was a bit difficult since Urakaze wanted to sell it at almost triple the price but after threatening her that he would then go the other way he decided to leave it at the normal price, although the transparent angel almost told him what the cake was for but managed to avoid it. It was a bit difficult due to the pain from yesterday's wound but nothing that is worrisome either. I am almost entering the forest, so it remains to start looking for the river again and follow it. I hope to get out of this quick before lunch and to warn Momo to make preparations this afternoon.

Very well this is the river. Now I have to be careful to appear as calm as possible, that it doesn't seem like a threat, and by the way I better put a new magazine to the pistol just in case.

From a good distance I could see from afar the temple in which I tried to take refuge yesterday. I stooped to see what the girl from yesterday was doing, when I saw her I was surprised by what she was doing. The same bonfire that I made yesterday was still there, she had been keeping it because she could see a huge amount of wood nearby that was not before, near it on a small and improvised chair there was what seemed to be a rag doll made with clothing fabrics, he had something on his feet that looked like a plate made of branches. And the main part the girl from yesterday left through the door of the temple.

She had a happy face as she slid the door that I had repaired, and that when she died she liked it because I closed it and opened it about 5 times checking how the repair was finished, she was wearing quite curious clothes because they vaguely looked like those of a maid, but They were made from other clothes, so they barely had the shape, but it was of various colors, primitively dyed with dark colors and as an apron it had the clothes I was going to sleep in yesterday, it seems that he saw better use making that to use them again.She also had a basket in her one of her arms, I couldn't see what it contained, but with it she went to where the rag doll was and started talking to her.

"So how do you think the food is, sir?"
"Can I bring you some cakes for dessert?"
"Miss Blue Doll taught me how to make these mud pies"
"Very delicious I must admit"

I couldn't believe it, she was playing with toys that she had made herself, and she was having a conversation with them. she was very excited because she couldn't stop smiling as she spoke. Although unexpected, all this made me so happy that I realized that I was also smiling just to see her.

Just a second later she stopped short and turned her head to where I was. Had she managed to see me?

"AHH, there someone there !!" she yelled.

Right after shouting that, she ran back to the temple, closed the door, there were noises of things falling and came out again with the clothes she used yesterday, along with her spear pointing again towards the direction I was in.

It was my time to act, so I slowly got out of where I was and put my hands up.

"Wait!!"
"stay calm"
"I do not intend to harm you"
"I'm going to leave the weapons here where you can see them"I put my gun on the ground and then walked a little slowly towards her but staying a good distance.
"If you want, you stay there"
"I'm not going any closer"
"I know yesterday we didn't have the best way to introduce ourselves, but I need to talk to you for a moment"

"I did my part yesterday and now you are coming for me again !?"

"I did my part yesterday and now you are coming for me again !?"
"Now if you come to kill me?"
"Just leave me alone !!!" she said.

"Sorry for bothering"
"But right now I don't have many options"

"So you really come for me!"

"Is my sister"
"She has been a very sick person, but the angels helped me with her health. My problem is that right now I'm trapped here and I want to see her as soon as possible, check that she's okay, because I'm afraid that a bad news about me could affect her a lot."

"That's a job for the angels not with me"

"She's a human, she lives on earth, what I'm looking for is a way to get back there"

"If she is human, how are you sisters?"

"It's a very curious long story"

"Well the answer is no"
"I'm not interested and I just want to be alone"
"Better get out or we'll see if you can defend yourself despite the pain you have"

Everything seemed that it would not reach a good port but then something typical of my luck happened again. Something that looked like a crystal in the shape of a tower appeared, it came out from the other side of the river, running with its three legs that it had to move, it turned completely on itself and seeming to notice us, it took a small step back as if preparing to face us.

"But what is that!?"the goddess asked.

But without finishing speaking, the rare crystal thing appeared a purple halo near what he could tell was the center of his body. And for more surprise that vaguely reminded me of something I had seen before, the same technique that some dragons used to launch a type of laser to attack.

"Watch out!"

Instinctively I threw myself to where the girl was and threw myself on her to remove her from the path where the monster's attack would come out, as it takes a few moments while she charges it and then throws it. The beam passed about two meters from where we were, but even so we were two meters from being hit by a laser beam.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked the girl while I turned to see what the monster was doing.

"What was that thing?" she said.

"Is it the first time you see something like that in this forest?" I asked.

"I've never seen anything like that before in my life!"

The crystal monster moves like a crab and moved sideways from the river to the position I was in moments before, right behind it was my weapon.The crystal monster moved like a crab and moved sideways from the river to the position I was in moments before, then another see a halo in the center of the tower crystal reappeared.

Taking the girl I lifted her in my arms, and despite her being bigger than me I could do it with ease. I started running in a zig zag, waiting for the right moment to do a last minute dodge to the side to avoid the lightning bolt. It was a risky technique but it was the most effective for such attacks.A roar was heard when he attacked in vain because he missed by quite a distance

"Are you sure that you can continue to hold me despite the pain you have" said the girl.

"I'm sorry, I did it accidentally, it was not my intention" I said as I put her back on the floor.
"But right now we don't have time to complain about the pain"
"If we don't do something that thing won't stop attacking us"

"Attack him with your weapon, it seemed to be quite powerful"

"The one behind that thing?"
"What about your bomb papers?"

"I have no more paper to make talismans"
"I spent yesterday those that I had left"

"Get ready, here it comes again !!"As soon as I finished saying that, she and I both jumped in different directions.

But then the monster, seeming to have learned from its mistakes, moved at the last second, and with its beam hit Tamamo directly in the chest.

"AAAHH!" she exclaimed to the air.

I immediately went directly to her without losing sight of the monster and quickly checked her wound. She had a good hole in the right side of her chest, but despite that she was quite fine despite the type of injury she had, as a normal person would have died immediately with that.

"Put this on the wound, press hard"
"Give me a moment and I'll take you to a doctor"

"Watch...out.."

!!!

The monster this time did not attack with its lightning, but decided to attack trying to pierce me with the tip of one of its legs, I try not to make noise, but thanks to the warning I managed to react in time to move away together with Tamamo. But that wouldn't do anything if I didn't manage to finish this thing off and get her to where they can treat her. This tower crystal is quite similar to a tower dragon, so perhaps its weak point is the platform at the top. But what do I hit him with that is strong enough to knock him down?

"Use my naginata to attack him!"Said the injured girl.

Seeming to know what I was thinking at that moment Tamamo made the spear that was nearby for me to use, without thinking twice I took it and made a gesture of thanks. After that I moved away from her a little and ran to the other side, making the monster choose between the girl on the ground or the one with a spear. And doing the most obvious action, it chased me, now that it was done quickly. He ran a little further into the forest where there were more large trees so that he could not move so freely.

After dodging a couple of his leg attacks I quickly climbed one of the tallest trees. I'm not going to lie, it hurt a lot due to the effort I had to make to be quick, besides that it hurt my hands a bit despite the gloves I was wearing, but I had managed to confuse the glass beast, so it seemed to be rotating on itself looking for me. Moments which I took the opportunity to move between the branches to place myself just above what could be considered his head, prepare the spear with the edge down, and just at the moment when I stopped for a second, I launched myself with everything. It was a perfect blow, so good even that the monster fell as if they had turned off a machine, it was so abrupt in fact that I had to hold onto the same spear to avoid falling from that height. Once on the ground I removed the spear from the body and started running towards the girl. There was no time to lose, I had to get her out of here as soon as possible.

"It... hur..ts" she said.
"...help...!"

"Hang in there"
"I'm going to get you out of here in a moment"

I make myself quickly to see how his wound was again. It was like seeing a bullet hole, which went through it from side to side, although I'm sure the first time I saw it it was bigger, but it could be that I just didn't see it well. It also seems that the piece of cloth I gave her was working well, as she was not losing more blood, which was what I was afraid of, probably being like a laser beam that same cauterized the wound.

"Well this is for now, it's not much but it's better than nothing"
"Keep pressing the fabric, hold it and don't let it go!"
"I'm going to get you out of here, I'm going to carry you on my shoulders, it's going to be moved but you have to hold on"

Once I finished picking up my gun and mounting the girl on my shoulders, I started running the way back as fast as my feet and my pain allowed me. Tamamo was not heavy, in fact it was quite light despite being her bigger than me, but the rugged terrain and running are wearing me out.

"Hey are you still okay?"
"Are you cold??"I asked.

"...help...me.."

"Do not worry"
"I'm on it"

Now that I knew the way this time it took much less time to travel it, but I have to do it even faster if I want to save it. After all, this was probably my fault, if I hadn't sought her out for my problems she wouldn't be hurt. So I have to do everything possible to help her, even if this only worsens the wounds that I already had, I have to keep running. I could already see the path that led to the hotel, and because it was close and with a slightly more regular path, I started to run even faster.

I'm even gasping for air from the pain, but I was determined not to stop at anything. Tamamo had a couple of minutes that she had stopped complaining, so I thought maybe she had lost consciousness, although I could feel her breathing, so she was still fine. When I got even closer to the inn I saw a quite recognizable silhouette, it was Urakaze.

"What are you doing!?"
"You should be resting!"
"Wait, who is she?"She said surprised to see me.

"Call another ambulance"
"It is an emergency, again!"

"Immediately"

"Perfect..."
"If you forgive me..."
"I'm going to pass out for a bit ..."

I just finished talking, everything got blurry and the next thing I remembered was seeing the ground approaching my face quickly.
