Under the dark ground ash walked in with the white ball sitting on his head while lightening the whole dark place.
"You are good as a light bulb don't you ?" Ash chuckled
"Hump!" The light bulb hit ash's head with it's flapping fist.
"Ow!" Ash rubbed his head and aimed to hit it back but stopped and realized that he can't even touch it. So how was he going to hit it?
Ash sighed and walked further inside and soon he found a deep place under the grounds and the area seemed like a underground battle field. He walked on the big rocks and looked around and suddenly he heard someone heavy breaths. He slipped down the rocks and followed the sound coming from. As he walked closer to the place where the sound of breath was coming. He found someone lying there back on the ground walls with there head down hiding there face with messed up blond yellow hairs. He walked closer to the person and realized that the other party was heavily panting with the sweats flowing from there forehead.
"Is he dying?" Ash observed the man and noticed his big muscles
'what a hot body ' ash thought looking at his own skinny body.
'baby are you jealous of his build?' the white ball teased him
"Shut up I am checking his condition" ash said angrily and put his hands on the man's face and looked at him. After lifting the man's hair ash saw his beautiful long sharp lashes tucked with the man's cheeks and his beautiful pointy nose with his soft thick lips.
'Soft?' ash realized what he was doing when admiring the man's face quickly took off his hands from the man's face.
'baby ~ you were molesting the man's face' the white ball said while poking ash's cheek.
"Stop I wasn't!" Ash denied
'okey baby so what now?' the white ball stopped teasing ash and looked at the fainted man.
" Help him of course!" Ash said while picking some bottles and bands from his space box.
' why help him? What if he is a weirdo?' the white ball said to ash.
Ash was wrapping his arms and legs with bands .
"Don't worry if he was some kind of weirdo he wouldn't have come here to lose his life" ash said as he placed bands back in the space box and placed his hands on his face when he removed them he looked like was haggard dizzy from the pain and black circle around his eyes he Continued "hey! do I look like I almost come out of deaths door?"
The white ball was confused as to why ash wrapped himself with band aids over his arms and legs and made face look like dying person 'baby what are you doing?'
"I need to look like natural as if I was attacked and this person saved me?" Ash explained
'huh?' the white ball didn't understand what he was talking.
Ash looked at the ball thinking is it's thinking capability must be low?
" Look if this person come here looking for the person who was staying here before. Surely he will look for me I mean the person who was staying here and will some how find out I was the one staying here so do you think he will let it go? Thinking I was some kind of strong person who was walking around in the most dangerous place and might get interested in me No? " Ash continued " so to make him think I am not here by will and some how got separated with my fellows and was almost killed by some strange monsters! Wouldn't that make a reasonable excuse for myself getting any suspect? and with his looks I don't think he is a weak person and look he is giving strong aura even though he is fainted!" Ash finished
He helped the man up but his weight was heavy and tripped over on the ground with the man.
"Ouch!" Ash rubbed the back of his head
" I am not bleeding right?" Ash said.
'baby don't worry about you head but your body!' the white ball quickly come down under his back of head from hitting any rocks. Listening to the what white ball said ash quickly at the man lying on top of him
'no wonder I was feeling heavy on my chest' ash thought and pushed the man by his face
"Hey bounce ball! Help me lift this man up!" Ash called the white ball
' who is bounce ball? ' the white ball jumped off his head .
"Whatever help me!" He said trying to push the man up
The white ball humped and grabbed from the man's hair.
"You will make him go bald if you pluck his hair" ash said as he saw the face of the man clearly when his hair were grabbed by the white ball
' then let's do this' the white ball said then went inside the body of the man.
"Huh! Hey come out !" Ash panicked as the white ball disappeared inside the man's body but soon breathed with a relief after he heard it's voice.
'don't worry baby I am helping you carry up this man '
Not soon after he heard it the body of the man stood and walked like a zombie.
" don't tell me you have possessed this man's body ?" ash asked while standing up.
' No baby I am not a ghost so I can not possess a living person '
The voice came inside of the man's body. But his face and eyes were still shut. Ash shrugged his shoulder seeing the seen.
" Then how can you move his body?" Ash asked while walking out of underground because standing there may attract uninvited beast.
' I am just moving his bones to walk on its own but if I was ghost I would have
Corrupted his soul to obey my command ' said the white ball .
Ash heard its explanation and walked out on above ground. They laid the man on the ground further away from the lake and sat down giving the nutrition drinks to recover his energy. It was getting late and sun was already down . Ash didn't sleep the night scared what if he was sleeping and woke up inside that creatures body again? He shrugged at that thought and then talked to the ball sitting on his head.
" Any way what are you?" Ash asked
' oh did I not tell you about me?' asked the white ball
"You never told me anything related to you did you forget?" Ash again asked in annoyance
' A! Sorry baby I forget that I haven't introduced yet' said the white.
Ash looked at the ball coming down his head and looked at him with it's round black eyes.
" And why are you calling me baby since our first meeting?" He asked
' I have been calling you that since you were born! " Said the white ball
" Since from my birth?" Ash was shocked
'yes baby it's just it was not time for me to come out but we have been together since we were born together!' said the white ball
"What ! What do you mean by being together and born together!?" Ash was too confused to understand what was this white ball talking to him
' calmn down baby I will explain slowly for you' the white ball sat down on the rock. Ash took deep breaths and listened to what was said by white ball.
' actually I am your soul window which will help you awaken your skills before the apocalypse fall on the world ' the white ball said while some data like screen appeared in front of ash. On the the screen he saw his name written with the basic information of his identity and some letters that he didn't understand but read as
