Chapter 2: Spirit Of The Fox, Part 2: Into The Forest
After the light had vanished from the school, it then reappeared in a forest-similar to the one Taju had been dreaming about. segundos after appearing, the light formed into the shape of Taju and the fox--indicating that they had still been inside as it disappeared from the school. The light that surrounded them finally faded, and Taju wanted some respostas out of
"Alright, fox, you know where I live, and where I go to school--what's this all about? What do you want from me?" he asked the fox.
It took him a segundo to remember that the raposa couldn't speak to him. Although the feral raposa did seem to possess otherworldly powers, he still wasn't able to physically communicate with him. When realizing his efforts to get him to talk was to no avail, he facepalmed.
"Oh, right, you can't speak, but yet you seem to be able to understand me. That makes 0 sense, but who am I to argue with a magic feral animal?" he asked him.
But just then, Taju heard a voice in his head--a familiar voice, like the one from his reacurring nightmare.
"As much power as I have, I still cannot communicate with you. At least not physically. I only posses so much power, unfortunately," the voice spoke, echoing through Taju's mind.
"What the--Who said that???" he asked, being caught off gaurd por this.
"Relax, it's me, right seguinte to you..." the voice stated.
He looked over at the fox, and had this creeped out expression on his face.
"Fox, is that YOU.... speaking telegraphically to my brain?" he asked the fox.
"Uh, the word you're looking for is telepathically, and YES, I am..." he stated.
"But how are you?" he asked, but was interupted.
"There's no time for that, you must hurry and transcend quickly. The Transcendance Period is coming to an end soon "the raposa explained.
Taju only heard half of what was said. He was too focused on where he was, noticing the similarities between this forest and the one in his dream.
"Hey, this is the same place I've drempt about the past week," he said.
"Yes, yes, but now isn't the time to site see, we must hurry. Now," said the fox
After stating this, the raposa ran off further into the woods. Knowing Taju would eventually follow him. And Taju, in fact, follow him, mainlywanting mais respostas out of him.
"Hey, wait a minute, you still haven't explained everything!" he yelled at the fox.
But the raposa decided to not answer him, and just kept going. He knew there wasn't much time left, and that Taju wouldn't be too far behind. And while Taju followed the fox, Junichiro was still standing in the school hallway, still trying to process what he just saw. It didn't make any sense to him whatsoever. As he stood there, the teacher came up to him, wondering why he was standing there.
"Junichiro, what are you doing? You should be in class, not standing around, staring at nothing..." she told him.
Juni thought about telling her what he had witnessed, but decided not to. He knew he
wouldn't be taken, and didn't want anyone at school thining he was crazy just for talking
"Oh, um... sorry, I had to use the bathroom and--" he explained, but was cut off.
"Did you find out who pulled the fogo alarm?" she asked him.
For half a second, he was going to say who did it, but chose not to. Which was probably for
"No, Ms. Tsukumo, I guess whoever did isn't here anymore," he told her.
"Fine, now head on back to class," she demanded.
And he did so, not wanting to get in mais trouble. But as he did so, Ms. Tsukumo didn't move. She continued standing right there, looking over at the area of where Taju and the raposa had just been. She narrowed her eyes at it, and came closer. Then stood there, as if examining the area where they were. Afterwards; she proceeded down the hallway, headed back to where Juni and the other students were. As soon as she returned to the classroom, she sat down in her chair and started looking at her phone with a worried look on her face. Juni noticed this and asked, "Are you OK, Ms. Tsukumo?"
She looked at him, saying abruptly, "Yes, I'm fine."
After saying this, though, she stood up, and faced the students.
"Please continue what we had learned yesterday, I need to make a call. I'll return shortyly," she told them.
She left the room, leaving the students confused. Juni just sat there, hoping Taju was OK. Wherever he was. Meanwhile, Taju and the raposa were still running deeper into the forest, the foxnot wanting to slow down even for a second. Taju started getting out of breath, and started going slower.
"Please stop for a sec!" he shouted.
"No, we're almost there!" the raposa declaired back.
"Could you at least explain all this???" he asked.
Just then, the raposa stopped running. Taju was relieved, also stopping as well.
"Any perguntas you have will be answered if we continue beyond this point," he told him, looking over ahead of them.
Taju noticed this and looked at where he was staring at. But he saw nothing--nothing but trees blocking their path through the forest. Taju was obviously confused.
"Um, fox, are you blind? There's nothing but trees--is THIS all you brought me here for? To stare at trees?" he asked, visibly confused. The raposa said nothing, but instead walked over to a árvore a few feet from them, and put his paw on it. And in doing this, the leaves on the árvore lit up with an unusual rainbow-ish glow. segundos after, the trees that once blocked the way had vanished. And their place, a torii (Japanese gate) was seen materializing. Upon seeing this, Taju stood there amazed.
"Wow, so I guess you've been here before?" he asked him.
The raposa nodded, and said, "Yes, this sacred forest has been my início for many years now, ever since..."
He was about to continue, but Taju cut him off unexpected. Taju had noticed footprints near them, to his right. They looked like 3 sets of adult-sized footprints.
"Hey, look, someone beat us here," he explained, pointing directly at the area they were. The fox's eyes widened as he stared at the footprints in fear of them being too late.
"No... that's not possible, only I can gain access to the Kitsune shrine," he explaied.
"Kitsune? But multi-tailed foxes aren't real... are they?" he asked him.
But he didn't respond to his question. After realizing other foxes had definitly been there, the raposa rushed through the gate as fast as he could. Taju didn't hesitate to follow along behind him. The raposa continued running, knowing that the shrine wasn't too much further ahead. segundos passed, and they both came to what looked like another gate, identical to the first one they say. And just a few feet further down, they saw what looked to be 2 life-sized raposa statues, both sitting down with their front paws on the ground. Each raposa places on opposite sides of the pathway. And just inches from them, stood the aforementioned Kitsune Shrine. When Taju finally saw it up ahead, he also noticed a different raposa statue inside the small shrine. This raposa was on 2 legs and had seven tails, as oposed to just one. It also was made to look like it was holding it's right arm upward, as if to be holding something. After seeing the kitsune statue, he instantly thought back to his recurring dream. The raposa wasted no time in rushing towards the shrine. Taju quickly followed him.
"Ummm, OK, now what? Is something supposed to happen?" Taju asked.
"Put your hand slightly above the statue's right hand, and wait. The Transcendence process should start immediately," the raposa explained.
"What does that even me, though? No offence, but you haven't exactly filled me in on what this is even about, why should I even trust what you're telling me? Again, no offence," he asked the fox.
"You know, the kid has a point, " a voiced stated, coming from behind them.
They quickly turned around, to see an adult female silver raposa standing there, sounded por other 2 other foxes, both of which were clothed in all black. Even covering their faces. Taju seemed to recognise her voice, but she didn't look at all familliar. The raposa knew exactly who she was, and growled at her. His eyes glowing with anger.
"I see you’re still alive after all these years," she told the fox, giving him a cold glare.
"If you don't leave this place, Airi, you WON'T be..." he told her, speaking telepathically.
"Sorry, but I came for the same thing you did, and I plan on getting it," she stated.
She motioned for the other two foxes to attack-and they did as she told them. They both came at them with swords swinging. The raposa dashed out of the way of the attack, and then looked towards Taju.
"Taju, place your hand above the statue's hand! I promise you this is REALLY important!" he shouted at him, urging to trust him.
Taju noded and did as the raposa said, while he tried his best to hold them off. The raposa started shooting a type of energy blast at the two of them. But just as Taju went to place his hand above the kitsune's hand, Airi began to making her way towards him. Walking rather quickly. segundos after Taju did what the raposa said, the kitsune statue's eyes, markings on it began to glow. Not a white color like that of the fox, but a arco iris, arco-íris color. When seeing this, Taju was surprised. segundos after, his eyes began glowing with the same glow as the statue, And then, a arco iris, arco-íris light materialize just above Taju's hand, and then finally took the shape of a hexagonal prism. But the moment was short lived. Airi came up behind Taju, holding a gun up to his back, ready to fogo if she needed to. Taju was unaware of what was going on, he was still entranced por the prism, While fighting off the two foxes, the feral raposa noticed what Airi was about to do, and his eyes widened.
"TAJU, BEHIND YOU!" he screamed.
With eyes still glowing, Taju turned around rather quickly--the prism still hovering above his hand--and summoned an energy blast similar to what the feral raposa did. But this one was stronger. So stronge, Airi was unexpetedly forced back por the blast. Landing on the ground on her side. She looked back at Taju, now realizing he had the prism in his hand. Taju flew upwards into the air. Both his eyes and prism still glowing brightly.
After the light had vanished from the school, it then reappeared in a forest-similar to the one Taju had been dreaming about. segundos after appearing, the light formed into the shape of Taju and the fox--indicating that they had still been inside as it disappeared from the school.
