Kino no Tabi

Unforgeable Memories – Short-Fiction 3, part 4

Kino X Shizu fanfic

This fanfic is a sequel to a previous one I wrote! The anime Kino no Tabi. Kino no Tabi was NOT created by me! I only wrote this story of the characters as a fan of the show. I have nothing to do with creating this anime!

WARNING! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!

As night began to fall once again, Kino stood by the window for the last night looking up at the rising moon that glowed up high among the starry skies. She listened to the sounds around her, Riku breathing as he sleeps, Hermes being quiet for once, Shizu was in the bathroom taking a shower. All the songs around her seem to be singing a song together as she listened more intensively.

She still had the two girls on her mind and still couldn't accept it. She imagined herself in their situation and it made her heart grow sadder. As Shizu got out of the shower half dressed like usual, he came by her side concerned. She had been quiet since they got back and seemed unhappy about the current situation. "You know you shouldn't get involved Kino. You could be killed or even worst." He told her as if he was reading her mind on what she was thinking about. She turned to him with a more serious face then usual. "If I was in the place of that older sister, would you be happy if someone knew the truth and keep it from you." She asked him.

Shizu became quiet for a while. It hurt him, cause he wanted to answer that he'd be seriously mad and would want to go after her. But, to admit to it, he would be going against what he just told her. He took her hand and gently squeezed it. "I most likely would." He replied. "But, that's a risk I would be willing to take. They might have different feelings about it then us." Kino looked away from him feeling a bit angry. "Were not so different from them you know." She answered back as she got up and pushed Hermes out of the room.

Shizu knew she was very mad at him. He also knew she hated to be told what to do and would be stubborn enough to do it her way anyway. He got up and followed her out the room, as Riku got up and chased behind him like he always did.

Kino drove Hermes down to where she had met the young girl and was surprised to see her sitting down at the same spot even in the night went it was dark with a small lantern at her side. Kino stopped Hermes and approached her slowly as the girl turned to see her come up. The young girl gave her a welcoming nod as Kino put Hermes on his kick stand. "You're still here this late at night?" Kino asked. The young girl looked back at her and smiled. "I've had a good day today. It was almost magical." Kino smiled at her and sat down beside her. "I came her, because I got something to tell you." Kino tried to explain.

The young girl nodded her head to Kino in a no form. "Its all right, I kind of already know. I was visited by my sister. She told me she was selected to become an angel. At first her wings scared me a little but, mother use to tell me stories about angels all the time when I was little. I'm the sister of an angel" she smiled. Kino was shocked that the young girl had met her sister. Kino wondered it the elder sister had come after seeing that Kino wasn't afraid of her. The young girl began to tell her about what she saw a while ago.

Flashback

It was time for bed as the young girl was brushing her teeth and putting on her PJ. She had just jumped on her bed as a grand light near the window lighted up her small dark room. She instantly felt a warmness from inside herself as she approached the window. When she got there, she saw her sister which she loved so much but, she had pure white wings that hung from her back. "Onee-san" the young girl said as eyes opened wide. The older sister smiled at her. "I'm sorry if I haven't' come to see you. I cannot stay long cause god wants me too elsewhere soon. I've become a messenger for him."

The two sisters talked for a bit before the elder sister said it was time for her to go and that she probably couldn't ever return again then placed a small necklace on her younger sister's neck. The necklace had a feather at the end of it dangling against her chest. The older sister showed a similar one to her. "With this, we will always be together, even if where apart. Whenever you feel lonely, you can come talk to the stars and I will hear you, even if I don't reply." She smiled as she began to move away.

The younger sister held onto the necklace tightly. "I love you Onee-san" she said as her sister moved further and further as both their eyes filled with tears.

End of Flashback

Kino listened intensively to the story from the beginning to the end. The young girl grabbed onto her necklace and showed it to Kino. "As long as I have this and the stars, my sister will always be a part of me." She smiled. "Angels must be nice to see." Hermes said. Kino smiled back at the girl even if she knew that her sister had lied to her about being a messenger for god. She decided it was best keep a secret for the well being of the younger sister. For a while they sat together and looked up to the sky together.

A little back from where they stood, Shizu and Riku gently watching over them. "I think we should be going master Shizu. Kino is no danger here." Said Riku. After Shizu agreed, they returned back to the hotel in wait for Kino and Hermes' return. Later that night as Shizu and Riku were already asleep. Shizu felt something warm touching his back which caused him to turn over a bit as he noticed Kino on his bed behind him. He knew she was a bit mad at him earlier, and though it would take her time to forgive him. To his amazement she hugged him from behind quietly saying nothing. She eventually falls asleep beside him like that and they left together quietly the next day.

Well that's the end of this fanfic. I hope you don't think it was too rushed. I had too many options on what would happen. I kinda liked this one best of all the ones. Let me know what you think!
