Chapter 3 - .Summit? No, it's Beo.

"Beo?"

What, who's Beo? This human? Their named!?

Well, of course humans are named! How else will they address each other? A? Finna was right, they had names! 

He's impressed! It must've been a really.. um, a ridiculous unintelligent human that stupidly walked into a bush full of Blue Jays as if being blind wasn't enough!

"What were you doing up in some trees? When since did you even know how to climb?" The person that Summit, no, Beo assumed that she was a friend of this human was really rambling a lot about trees and climbing, also things about how he never told her where he was going?

Wait, so is this a parent? She sounded young- no, then really, Summit had seen some crazy things while he was alive.

Well, is he really? Are the Clan members sorry or sad? How about Dani, is he ok or something?

He seemed unbearably fine now, the moments flash of pain only just being backaches.

Just the memory of dying was quite.. yes, painful?

"Well," Beo simply said, "any peafo-"

WAIT, WOAH,

"I know how to c-climb," he stuttered, correcting himself quicker than he expected. But the girl clearly heard him.

"Hm, but what were you about to say at first?" The girl asked, curious but suspicious.

No.

"Nothing, sorry," Beo really wanted to not talk right now, as he forgotten he was human and not a Peafowl Seon Creature. Got to get his mind together, doesn't he?

"Huh, whatever," the girl just nodded her head and looked up at the sky. She wasn't convinced.

"Come over here, tonight the stars are more out than ever!" She suddenly changed from unimpressed at Beo's stupid admit of lying to something that enlivened her as something like the stars. 

"Sure," if that's time to think and recollect things, then sure, of course!

"If you'd refused, I wouldn't have even listened to you! Mind you, it wasn't an invitation, it was a demand." 

*****

Ah, so the name was Mimi, Beo now knew her name, as she revealed it after just a bit of talking.

Anyways, now they were both looking up at the stars that didn't help Beo with nothing when he was walking in the forest, but they were actually quite a masterpiece if you could see them clearly rather than through some trees.

Atleast the moon was normal here. 

Dani was the only one who liked stargazing. Finna liked science, specifically interested in humans the most, although she said that they were basically like us which she was right on all terms except the creatures, and Kk loved plants. 

Who's Kk? Beo's step sister. 

But now it was clear. He knew he was in a book, he knew that he was absolutely dead, as this book only had a FEW survivors at the end. Yea, not exactly the end, mhm, but atleast very close to the end. He was just 4 chapters away.

But he did know that he had to be a side character, as he had no recollection of anyone looking like this human who was a beauty. 

Well, the only other beauty wasn't male, and she's a relative of the protagonist, so it can't be her.

Which side character, though? A background character couldn't be looking like this, and the important side characters weren't either, so a basic character was the one this human was, so-

*****

Mimi was bored. She was just staring up at the sky, and the sky is boring. The stars were still up in the sky, shining brightly, but it was becoming boring.

The party had no interest now, she'd basically did everything. The only other thing was eating, which, yea, she's full.

What a disaster, nothing to do at a party? They are supposed to be fun, which is calamitous that theres nothing fun to do now,

Striking a conversation with Beo was the best thing to do since exploring the ledge where they were sitting at could end up with Mimi's fall and blegh, deathhhh.

But today he was quite different, a different man, just something. 

"Beo, you remember the flowers you asked for?" she asked, starting up a conversation with her best friend who was now muttering like crazy.

"Flowers?" he queried, confused. 

"So you forgot about it?" Already? it was earlier today though?

 Beo didn't respond for a moment, as if he was deeply thinking on it. 

"Whatever, I got you the sunsprites," she took the bag that was slung across her shoulder and settled it on her left side, then pulled out a bouquet of bright yellow flowers.

As soon as Beo laid eyes on it, he paused for a moment, then shock traverse his face. 

"WHAT!? ARE THOSE THE TAILS OF ROSEBUD SEON CREATURES? THOSE THINGS ARE SURPRISINGLY BIRDS, DID YOU KNOW?"

*****

Mimi looked over the edge of the cliff, the muted brown of the dirt and gray stones that was still locked in with the dirt.

Emerald and yellow-green pine needles swished in the mid-strong wind as it clung to the pine trees below. It went as far as only 20 yards, as far as Mimi could see, really. She thought it dropped to a murky swamp, but she'd only ever heard it was there, so..

A human's vision can go up to 3 miles, which is 5280 yards, and stuff like that. So in the pale moonlight, could you see less?"Ay, Beo," Mimi started, still thinking of her theory, "ya think that you could see more or less of the world when it's drapped in moonlight?"

She looked over a Beo, who was now 6 feet away from her, of course. He was studying the sunsprites as if he was puzzled as to why she even gave it to him in the first place.

The bright yellow flowers hung loosely in his hands, and it even looked like he couldn't care less they were, except his eyes were full moons, only just a dove gray and milky ivory. She'd always thought it was contacts, but somehow one wasn't and one was stuck. Makes no sense whatsoever.

"What?" 

Was he slow? And where was this man's accent, isn't he.. whatever his accent is in the first place, doesn't really matter if you can clearly hear him say "I" instead of "ah" like it's some gangster shi for real.

"I said, can you see the world more or less in the moonlight? Like, it does effect your vision, but can it effect the distance between say- that really tall pine tree?"

"No, it really doesn't," he said immediately, matter-of-factly actually. "You see, peafowl doesn't exactly have their vision heightened, it's actually reduced or limited but the other senses are at maximum level so they can survive-"

"I'm not talking about Peafowl. What are those anyway?"

Beo looked like his world crumbled, crashed, was smashed, and that Mimi was the stupid one. "You don't know about Peafowls?"

"When since you were smart enough to know about 'Peafowls?'" 

"Peafowls are birds! They're gorgeous birds, their feathers, their ancestors, everything is beautiful about them!"

Seems like this was the only thing Beo knew about, huh. 

Just then, something caught Mimi's eye. A different, bigger star, standing out nicely from the other stars. Woah, it was beguiling, even.

Turning her full attention on the scene, she suddenly got a weird feeling that her pupils were shrinking, which was strange. Why? 

Oh man.. the star was becoming bigger. 

Mimi's heart leaped to her throat.

An Asteroid? Is it crashing? Meteoroid? No no, meteorites are the one that crashes on Earth, not asteroids! Shut up, Mimi! You're in danger!

In full panick mode, she stumbled up, grabbed her bag and swung it around herself, than was about to ran over to Beo until he completely destroyed the scene. 

"Oh wow, a meteoroid. Where's it going to land? It looks like it's aiming here but.. my imagination, haha!"

Yea, no, bye bye.

Mimi turned her direction with a blank face and grabbed the nearest child that was panicking and started to help everyone else, even if she thought they'd wouldn't exactly make it with how slow they were going.
