Chapter 9 - frog vs flute

sweats drip from my forehead, i feel like im gonna faint.

i release my lip from the fluet, taking big breaths.

"you have to just– dont think anything and focus on the urge" kaede say, sitting on the ground playing with sands again.

i wanted to scoffs but hold it back, we've been practicing for couple of hours now and the outdoor ground turn dark only couples of people left

i want to cry and give up, but an oddly feeling force me to continue

im trying to hypnotize a frog that happen to enter the ground, its trap in a sand hole that kaede made

i blow my fluet again playing the same melody that i did since hours and hours ago

i empty my mind atleast i think i did– and forcus on trying to hypnotize the frog

the frog continue to blink and jump around, clearly not hypnotize

i groan, the white fluet almost fell from my hand. but i manage to catch it

i look at kaede again, eyes burning with 'i cant do this but i want to do this so bad' kind of look

"if you cant do it just give up," he say pushing the sand to make another mountain "im tired to for sitting here supervising you" he continue

"then dont. im 19 year old" i say, like it was the obvious thing

"i cant or daisuke-san gonna be mad" he say

i wanted to groan, i put the fluet on my lips again

i was about to blow the fluet until we heard a loud sound

SLAM!'

the door was slam open, rather loudly. stand there is the girl i bump

"WHERE IS MY BABY?!" she scream, i blink my eyes. confused, i put my fluet back to my waist bag.

her eyes look everywhere until it landed on the frog kaede trapped.

she glance at me and kaede with muderous eye,

"YOU," she say menacingly, stomping toward us

i shudder 'what did i do wrong?! there is no baby in here!!' i scream in my mind

she raise her hands, i took a quick glance at the bow and duck my head

'I DONT WANNA DIE TO SOME GIRL WHO WEARS KIDS ONESIES' i scream

but instead she snatches the frog from the hole while kissing and hugging it muttering "poor baby your must be scared hm?"

"my baby! oh my sweet baby!" the girl mourn petting the frog furiously that i felt bad for the frog.

kaede didnt even seem to mind, he just ignore and continue to play

god i probably look stupid.

i stand straight slowly staring at her, judging her quitely.

'....everyone here is so....uniqe..' i thought

i pick up my guitar case and swung it over my shoulder

i turn around, kaede seem to notice my act "finnally we're done" he groans standing while streching

i just nod, kaede seem to get me as he glance at her than me

we take a step, for the intention of leaving and escaping from this frog obsessed lady!

"WE ARE NOT DONE YET!" suddenly, bunch of frogs jump in from the glass fences.

they pile and raise her high above.

'is— is she using her so called baby as a plank?! i thought theyre were your childrens!'

"YOU DARE TO TRAP MY 208 BABY!" she scream, rather dramaticly while looking down on us. kaede seem to act normal as if he already expririence this

he looks at me "great, there is more frog to hypnotize. this is your chance" my left eye twitch.

'NO! I DONT WANT TO FIGHT SOMEONE WHO REMEMEBERS THOUSANDS–HECK. MILLIONS OF FROGS BY NUMBERS!' but it came out as an "EEP!"

kaede seem to think it was a code for 'yes' because he answer with "great. now im gonna report this to daisuke that you suck" he left

i turn around, fear written all over my face.

i look at her clearly furios face. yup she's mad

"SWARM HIM!" the frog then jump and collided, trying to get close to me

i started to shake yet i force my body to run.

the chase start, i franticly search in my waist bag.

accidently pulled a pick couple of times

i pulled out the fluet and play the same melody 'please please please be hypnotize!!' i panicly think, or trying to put my mind nto the state of urges

i dodge the incoming frogs unprofessionally, my injure head hit the ground hard.

i stand up struggling, and very quickly. the dizziness empty my mind and cutted my lines of desperation in my thought. wave of frog filled my sight, i screech loudly as i prepare myself for the impact.

it was hard to brethe and my skin feels sticky, i desperately try to get out from the sea of frog.

"tsk! i cant believe daishitsuke take his 'pweciwous wittle time' to talk to an untalented like you!" i heard the girl bark.

'i didnt know either why he thinks ill be fitted for this job!' i think, i scrapped out of the frog and hungrily breathe on the air furiously.

but oh. oh its not finish yet. in the corner of ky eye i saw another wave coming.

"shit!" i curse out already running, my limb feels tired from all the scrapping i did and the little air i got.

i continue to dodge painfully. i did it many time the bandage that was wrap around my head rip out.

the frog continue to squirm towards me but i notice it have decrease significantly

my gaze land on the frogs that was stuck outside of the fences.

i gulp, an idea bloom into my mind

i take the risk to slide on the side of the fences, having the chance ill stumble into a rock and hit my head

"gah! chase after him!" the girl yelled. as i expected, the frog than ran to me following her command. many falls out of the fences, i grin– a shit eating grin.

i play the fluet once more with expectation. but my 'urge' seem to not be strong

'why cant i hypnotize them?! fuck!'

i continue the sliding plan, she seem to notice this and her face get even more twisted and angerier

"HEY THATS PLAYING DIRTY YOU BASTARD!" she shouted, already climbing the fences to help the stuck frogs.

'its not my fault! i dont wanna die!' i think. yet, every good plan have a flaw

as i was sliding and making sharp turns around the fences, my foot met a rock. i stumble harshly, rolling with my leg burning with pain.

i protect my head worrying any rocks will hit it

i stop rolling. yet i dont even have time to recover as frogs started to climb and latches onto me

i let out a quite groan clearly uncomfortable of the feeling of frog limbs slatch into my body,

'fuck! this again!' i feel small, i feel weak. i heard a laugh, it was from that girl.

she looks like a maniac laughing looking at ky position.

the frog continue to stick on to me, the feeling of small limbs moving on my skin, closing the spaces was utterly disgusting.

i wanted to get out. scream, do something or atleast make the feeling stop

i blow the fluet, my body moving on its own,

my mind screaming 'LET ME OUT! RELEASE ME! STOP TOUCHING ME!'

i close my eye, tears on the edge of my eye.

i hate being in a small space

i saw the tune, i feel the warmth of emotions. i continue to blow and i calm down abit

one by one, i feel the little limbs of frog started to dissapear from my body

i open my eyes slowly. i saw kaeru–atleast thats what i think her name is–just staring at me

i follow her gaze. and saw a frog just standing there with theyre eyes swirl with black and white.

just looking at the frog give me uneasiness

i look at her again

"...you...are the first to take over control my frog"
