On the hot cement sidewalk of Sainan, a smiling girl with light green hair was tightly latched onto the right arm of a hazel eyed boy as they walked pass aliens and earthlings..
"Where are we going, Rian?"
Run looked towards the boy she was tightly clinging to and asked with a smile. Truthfully, the girl didn't care where the Rian took her. She only cared about her and the boy enjoying their time together.
"To a secret area"
Rian responded with a light smile on his face.
"A secret area?"
Run asked with a tilted head and transparent question marks rapidly appearing above her head…
"Mhmmm, not many people know about it."
Rian responded while stopping at a crosswalk…
"Hmmm. Can I guess what it is?"
"I don't mind you trying."
Rian waited until it was his time to move before walking across the crosswalk.
"Is a expensive place?"
Run shot her first guess…
"Nope. It's a completely free place."
Rian stepped back on the sidewalk before continuing to walk straight…
"Uhh…Does it involve food."
Run shot her second guess…
"Nope."
Rian turned right, he entered the area of a outside parking lot.
"…Can I get a birthday hint?"
"…"
"Hint, hint, hint."
Red Run repeatedly blinked her eyes while saying.
"…Fine."
"Heh."
Run smirked after getting what she wanted…
"…"
Rian ignored her purposely loud "Heh" before thinking of a hint…
"…It's outside."
Rian gave a vague hint.
"…"
Red Run's smirk went down and her cheeks puffed up. She couldn't get alot from that.
"Heh."
Rian gave the girl a purposely loud "Heh" before arriving at his means "transportation."
"…Rian."
Run's puffy cheeks slowly went down after seeing her boyfriend's means of "transportation."
"Hmm?"
"I like it."
Run raised her thumb…
"Good. Let's get on it."
Rian walked towards his means of "transportation" with Run before reaching inside of the horse's saddle pouch. His hand roamed throughout the saddle pouch before he took out a red apple. After obtaining two red apples from the saddle pouch of the black horse, he handed one to Run before climbing aboard the horse and properly ajusting himself.
"…"
Run wasn't really hungry for apples, but she still attempted to bite it.
"Neigh!!"
The horse made a loud noise while hitting the ground with it's hoof. The horse glanced in Run's direction with a side eye before turning to devour the apple in Rian's hand.
"…I wasn't suppose to eat it?"
Run's face slowly became red…
"…"
Rian and the horse shook their head at the same time…
"…Oh…I see."
Red Run's face was redder than the apple she was holding. She walked over to the horse before giving it another apple.
"Neigh!!!"
The horse made a happy "Neigh" before taking the apple from the hand of the girl and devouring it like a speed eater. After the horse ate the apple, it nodded it's head in Run's direction.
"Ryuk, doesn't let anyone who hasn't fed him on his back."
Rian said while extending his free hand towards Run.
"I see."
Red Run accepted his hand and allowed herself to be pulled on the horse. She sat in front of Rian.
"I think I have better guesses now, Rian."
Run said while leaning herself on Rian's chest.
"Ok. Go for it."
Rian said while patting the horse's side and preparing to guide it.
"Neigh."
The horse neighed before moving at a moderate speed.
"Are we going to joust?"
Run shot her third guess…
"Nope"
"A horse show?"
Run shot what seemed to be her final guess…
"Nope. You want another hint?"
"Yes."
Run didn't "Heh" this time.
"Okay. It doesn't have anything to do with horses."
Rian said while his friends horse, Ryuk left the parking lot and entered the nearly empty traffic.
"…"
Run slide down Rian's body. She was thrown back to square one again…
"You give up?"
"…"
Just as Run was about to nod her head, a familiar sound entered her ears.
"Neigh!!"
The black horse turned it's head away from the red light before shaking it's head. The horse looked at the bulky saddle pouch near Run's feet before turning and galloping behind the now moving cars.
"…"
Run looked towards the saddle pouch before repeatedly tapping it with her shoes.
"Rian, what is that I feel?"
"Behind you or in the pouch?"
"In the pouch."
Red Run already knew what was behind her, her red face showed it all.
"Oh, it's a few pairs of flying shoes."
"Flying shoes?"
Run looked up from Rian's body.
"Yeah. They can gather the earth's wind to use it as energy to fly."
Rian said as the horse below him turned left.
"Heh. You gave me a free hint."
Run smirked once again…
"You're right, good job."
Rian agreed with her.
"…Are you taking me out to fly with the shoes?"
Run's eyes shined as the idea dawned on her.
"…"
Rian nodded while guiding the black horse near a forest part of Sainan.
"Hehehehe! Rian, Rian, Rian!"
For some reason, the girl felt rather excited. She felt like a student leaving a advanced placement class to go to physical education.
"Run, Run, Run, Run."
Rian copied what Run did for fun…
"Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian."
The girl repeated right after Rian finished. For some reason, she didn't want to want get outdone.
"Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run."
Rian showed her his strength.
"Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian, Rian."
Run showed her strength as well.
"Your're strong, Run."
Rian said while looking down at the girl on his body with narrowed eyes.
"Hmph, you are also."
Run smiled while staring at the boy's narrowed eyes…
The two reopened their mouths at the same time…
"Rian/Run."
The two names had started a war between two people…
The war of name calling would only end when they arrived at their location…
