Chapter 16 - 16 The Mute Roommate

Ezze finished her food then just rested against the door minutes gone by as she than began to stand and opened her door, then surprisingly she saw Null existing his door and stopped right there like a rock than she saw him go to the kitchen, and she followed and saw him dryank milk but he said something one of the horrible jokes to her, "Better my bones, better my blood", to her he sounded like a child rhyming off randomly and indeed the words were random and including the height difference made him look like a child.

And than it brought her here, with a dish in her hands and her white smooth frosty lips tight together in a thin line after giggling, aswell being caught.

Null looked at the dish took it and placed it in the sink, and put the milk on the island table, "Ezze?, what's up?"

Ezze started to have a nervous face and a few drops of sweat, as she looked around then she looked like she had a idea and ran off.

"Was she uncomfortable? I'm i awkward?" Null was not easily effected by how people thought of him but she immediately ran off.

Null sighed, closing his eyes then when he opened his eyes he saw a small note pad with the words.

"The other boy said, you wanted to speak to me, he called you 0."

Null moved his head to the side and saw Ezze her hands strenched out, and now looking closer he saw that she wore a red panda pajama even with a hoodie on.

"That's cute." Null mumbled, but he was not quiet about it, causing Ezze to look down and use a hand to bring down the red panda hoody down to cover her shy expression, then she brought the note pad to herself then she turned a page and wrote down and she showed the note pad to him.

"Thank you." Null could see that Ezze was blushing, she did not seem good with socializing and with how she was writing on a note pad, Null guessed she had a vocal impairment.

"Are you mute?" Null asked with a smile, and Ezze was a little startled as she froze, and slowly wrote down on her note pad.

"Yes." That was all that was written and some incomplete yes that was crossed out.

"So is that why your so quiet and little distance." Null stated with a excited expression giving off a positive feeling to make her a bit more comfortable.

She nodded, with a bit of a uncertainty on the expression that painted her face and disbelief with a bead of sweat.

Null observed that she was a bit more lax because of the way he changed the serious matter to one of slight unease.

"Why so serious?" Null asked with a smile on his face, then Ezze began to write on the note pad and showed what was written.

"I have not gotten the best of feedbacks mostly negative."

'So that's why she is so tense ' Null thought and he began to ask a question.

"Your strong right, so let's be friends." Null asked with a smile. Ezze scrunched her face with suspicious and wrote on the note pad once again and, Null was not expecting this with how well the conversation was.

"So you want to my friend because I'm strong, i don't like being a bodyguard my so called friend."

Null than chuckled "I'm not weak, neither am i stronger than you, but not for long, so i just want more friends." Null said

Null pasted by her and he realized that she was taller than expected 3 inches at least, before heading to room he said "We should converse again in future." Null said as he entered his room and collapsed on his bed and the reason being his arms cramping up.

_ _

Ezze thought of the words of the short boy and she unstood that he meant that he doesn't need her strength at all, he just wanted more friends, but that's hard to believe as he would be around the bottom of the hierarchy when the watches are given.

'If he doesn't need my strength that's cool i don't have to baby sitting.' Ezze thought as she proceed to her room.

_ _

Unknowingly there was one that was forgotten and that was Lumina who had a smirk on his face, "I know you'll get stronger 0." Lumina whispered to himself as he looked at the time.

19:56

"Maybe i can bring you along." Lumina said to himself.

Null body was not overall aching but from his fingers to his shoulders was not okay he kept twitching, every time he tried to adjust his sleeping position.

But Null thought of something he learnt from a pass 'associate' he breathed in throw his noise and breathed out his mouth with a irritated, scrunched face and then he envisioned his heart pumping, his lung having a concentrated amount of oxygen that poisoness to the human if they were to inhale it for to long.

He did not know when or how but he was awake in a water that was dark, protruding countless thick tree's produring out of the water which the origin of the trees where not known, it seemed deep as he floated on the water, he was naked and he could see veins muscles and fibers that were in him and his bones, he did not have a inche of fear and he saw the trees having glowing streams go down it's trunks into the dark water.

he could see his muscles repair as he saw the glowing stream getting into his body in every muscle fiber.

When he focused, everything blurred out as if zooming in with a camera and now he he saw a stone surface will rectangular shapes protruding and going back to the ground and this went on a he focused once again and saw that there was the glowing stream again.

Now it was like strings and he could see it repair some of the torn of and broken rectangles, then it struck him.

'Are the shapes my muscle fibers? That is cool but what is this energy?' Then finally Null spoke out atleast tired as he realized he could not speak but his thoughts were so vivid and sound.

'For now i want to know, Where am I?'
