Stop joking around. I said. I know I'm human it's you I'm concerned about. I said. We've already established that I'm not a human. Max said laughing. This isn't funny. I said. Get out. I said. Sorry can't do that. Max said. I mean unless you want them to come. Max said. Who's them? I asked. Oh you know blood lusting monsters. Max said. Your not that? I asked. Mean. Max said. These things will stop at nothing to kill you and bring you to their no good master. Max said. No good master? I asked. You ask to many questions we need to leave first. Max said. Wait, wait, wait, I'm not going anywhere with a whatever you are until you can prove I'm not hallucinating. I said. I don't think he's joking. Hitori whispered. Max frowned. Your being difficult. Max said. Max grabbed Yukata's hand. Let's go time to leave! Max said pulling him. Yukata pulled back. No I'm hallucinating. Yukata said with his eyes closed. A needle shot through the window as Max pulled Hitori and Yukata out the way. The needle grazed Yukata's cheek. Believe me now? Max asked. Run. Hitori said. Max grabbed Hitori and Yukata and melted away in the shadows. They appeared near the ocean where Hitori was throwing up. What's wrong with him? I asked. He's human he's not used to traveling in the darkness like our kind. Max said. What about me? I asked. I told you your not human. Max said. Hitori stood up. Isn't there a more effective way of traveling other than that? Hitori asked. Max crossed his arms in thought. We could fly. Max said. Hitori's afraid of hights. I said. By the way where are we? I said looking at Max. Florida Beach. Max said. Oh okay. I said. Wait. I said thinking. You took us all the way out to America?! I yelled. We had to get as far away as possible. Max said. Don't use that as an excuse! I yelled. Hey! Someone yelled. Who's there?! They yelled. I have a shotgun and I'm not afraid you use it. They said. Great now look what you've caused. Max said. You mean you your the one who took us to Florida. I said. Yeah saving your life though. Max said. I'm giving you to the count of three! They yelled. Max grabbed Hitori and Yukata. Get ready. Max said. They melted into the shadows again. Why are we in a bathroom? I asked. Hitori's being sick obviously. Max said. This is a convenience store actually in New York. Max said. Of course we are. I said. Went through half the country in a couple of minutes. I said. I'm alive. Hitori said. You really shouldn't be. Max said. Stop being creepy. I said. Can we buy a bag of chips? Hitori asked. You got money? I asked. No. Hitori said. I do. Max said. Nobody asked you though. I said. You know you can respect your elders. Max said. Yeah elders not whatever you called yourself. I said. Do you have any milk bread? Hitori asked the man at the counter. He made a confused face. M-i-l-k B-r-e-a-d. Hitori spelled out. The man still looked confused. We're in America dimwit. I said. I know but why can't he understand me. Hitori asked. He's not as stupid as he just sounded is he? Max said. I wouldn't doubt it. I said. The man at the counter smiled. Run! Max yelled. The man screeched. Max summoned 5 backpacks. Hitori make yourself useful and fill these backpacks up quickly. Max said. Won't they be heavy? Hitori asked. No those backpacks are made from a special leather hurry up more will be coming now. Max said. The man screeched more. Max these backpacks aren't filling up. Hitori said. They're not supposed to. Max said locking the doors and gagging the man. The stuff automatically transfers into here. Max said holding up a single backpack. Yukata go help get any rations into the bag. Max said. Oh boy their almost here. Max said. Well let's go this store is basically empty! Hitori said holding the empty backpacks. Hold on a minute. Max said. One appeared in front of the store and kicked the glass in. Now! Max yelled. Crap were completely cornered! I said. Looks like we get to fight then. Max said smiling. Yukata catch. Max said. Chalk? I said. Draw a weapon summoning and summon a weapon. Max said. Yeah if you have time to show me a YouTube tutorial. I said. Max grabbed the chalk. He drew one and summoned a bow. For that one. Max said. Hitori catched it. I don't know how to use a bow. Hitori said. Better learn. Max said. I need one. I said. I don't have any energy left just summon using the other method. Max said kicking one of them into a gas pump. Like I know that version either. I said. But I think I know how to. Yukata thought. Yukata bit the inside of his cheek and spit onto the ground. He slammed his hand against the pavement and steam came from everywhere. A smoke screen! Nice! Max said. Don't move I'm coming to you. Max said. Max grabbed Hitori and Yukata out of the smoke screen. My mouth is still bleeding. I said. How hard did you bite? Hitori asked. Yukata spit onto the ground. What are you summoning now? Max asked. Don't know the smoke screen came out unintentionally though. I said. Yukata slammed his hand against the pavement and a lighter appeared. The smoke screen is almost gone we need to leave. Hitori said. I can only teleport twice a night. Max said. Hitori shoot those gas pumps. Hitori raised the bow. It's upside down. Max said. Oh. Hitori said. Use your aimer. Max said. You mean the red dot? Hitori asked. Stop casually talking and do it the smoke screens up. I said. Hitori aimed and instead of hitting the gas pumps he hit the ground. Oops. Hitori said. Their coming this way! Hitori yelled. A police car pulled up. Not now. I said. Wait where's Max? Hitori asked. Max opened the police car. Let's go! Max yelled. Max tossed shuriken's into the gas pumps which began leaking fuel. Hitori take the shot! I yelled. Yukata lit his arrow on fire. Hitori missed but hit the ground. Fuel spread to that area. Drive! I yelled. Max stepped on it as the force of the explosion pushed the car. Did we just escape death? Hitori asked. Yukata high fived Hitori. Surprisingly yeah. I said. I'm going to sleep. I said collspsing. What's wrong with him? Hitori asked. He just summoned for his first time and to create a smoke screen that big at his age is impressive. Max said. Go to sleep Hitori. Max said. I got this. Max said. Sure. Hitori said.
