My Little Spirit Kitty

Looking at Natsumi and at the five spirit birds that just land behind her make me really confuse since at least I was hoping to just see one for Lisa, or maybe since Kazuma asked many questions to Phoebe last night about Natsumu and even c.a.r.e.s.s her a lot, showing that maybe he would like to have a spirit bird too. But I didn't expect to see so many of them coming back with her…

While looking a little more closer, I was able to notice that two of them was a little bigger compare to the last three, so maybe it was just like Natsumi's brother, some elder who came to be sure we are nice people before letting the youngest one to make a contract with us, did I thought while looking at Phoebe who looking at Natsumi right now.

"So these are our new friends?" Did I ask to Phoebe

"Ahh Hiro, I just finished to talk with Natsumi!" Say Linoa when she sees me arriving next to her

Nodding at her first I look at the new spirit birds that were in front of me. On the right side there were two beautiful blue birds, which honestly lot look like a peac.o.c.k except that they were clearly more beautiful than them! Their wings were more large and elegant than them, but the most amazing was their tails that was a little fluffy and which makes me feel like a fox tail but more long. The biggest blue bird had five tails behind him while the little bird only had two, both of them were a Kujax.

Then, in the middle, but little closed to the blue birds than to last two, there was a bird that at first make me feel of a swan, except that its neck is a little shorter and his wing and feather was a little more long and softer, and most importantly it was all black. If its tail was a little longer and his neck a little shorter, it will almost make me feel like it may be a black phoenix, but after seeing a real one, I know he is not even if some warm air come from him every time it moves, it was a Black Hakucho and was really rare.

Finally, the last two were just magnificent, there was no need to add more words that can describe their beauties, except that they may be angels coming from heaven! Both of them were white, but not only just simply white since when you see them moving you can see some little sparks coming from them as same as a fresh snow can make when the sun reflect on it and compare to the other birds, they both had a long silky crest, even if the shortest bird crest isn't that so long compare to the one behind her. But the most amazing part was when they were flying earlier, we were able to see some little sparkle dust left behind their long and thin tails such as a comet tail illuminating the sky, they were a Snow Kuzasu.

"Hello everyone, my name is Hiroki! First I would like to say thank you for everyone to accept to follow our dear Natsumi until here!"

"And I suppose that you already know about Phoebe, the partner and friend of our dear Natsumi."

"They thanks us for our hospitality and they are quiet interesting about our proposition!" Translate Phoebe to me since Hikari wasn't here now

"Well as you maybe can feel from us, and our friend behind, it's that we all have a mystallis crystal and most of us also had a spirit beast as well and today we may have two of our friend who may be interesting to have a spirit bird joining them!" Did I say while both Lisa and Kazuma come next to us a little embarrassed after that Phoebe asked them to join us

"To be honest, I am a little surprised to see so many spirit birds coming…"

"Apparently Natsumi find first the Kuja who decide to join her while also bringing one of their other young spirit bird that they adopt after its family abandon him! While about the two Kuzasu, being curious to see so many spirit birds suddenly flying together, they decide to join them after hearing the reason!" Say Phoebe

"Hmm I see, and I am sorry for your past!" Did I say to the black Hakucho who bow down its head to me, accepting my apologies, "And I also would like to say that if any of you isn't choose today, you can decide to stay with us for the meantime if you want!"

"My partner and her friends all consider us as their friends and even part of their family!" Translate Phoebe for us after that Natsumi suddenly fly from her shoulder and land on my shoulder as proof

Hearing about this, the two biggest spirit birds that join the three youngest one bow down their heads before walking back a few, letting the youngest makes their own choice of what they would like to do.

"Lisa! Kazuma! Now all depend of you!" Did I say while I also step back with Phoebe and Natsumi who was still on my shoulder

They didn't even need to talk to each other to decide which one of the spirit bird they may choose that they already approach two of the three birds by themselves. Lisa was standing in front of the white bird while Kazuma stop in front of the black one, making this one a little surprised that Kazuma choose him without hesitation but he also felt lot happy in the same time.

"I, Lisa Aldonim, would like you to become my partner and friend!" Did she say to the snow Kuzasu who bow its head, accepting Lisa offer while Kazuma was doing the same with the black Hakucho that also accept as well

Looking at the little blue bird that felt a little sad to didn't be choose, I come in front of him while patting his head while I suddenly remember that Kaixin also don't have a spirit beast yet.

"Kaixin! What do you think about this little bird?" Did I ask him

"He is indeed beautiful, but I feel this one is not for me!" Did he reply me, which surprised me a few

"Look likes the blue bird is also agree with him!" Say Phoebe

"Ohh… I see! Don't worry, you can stay all you want until you find your true partner." Did I tell him while patting his soft head, "If it's also okay with you too of course!" Did I add while looking at the oldest bird behind him

The young blue bird looks at me curiously for then looking back to the one behind him who just nodded at him for then looking at Phoebe and me.

"He thanks us for the offer and he also asks us if his mother can also stay here a few with us." Did Phoebe translate to me, "And look like the other snow Kuzasu also asks the same thing too!"

"Of course, you can both stay as long as you want, we have enough place to receive you!" Did I reply them while showing them where they can stay

During that time, both Lisa and Kazuma were actually sealing their contract with our new friends when suddenly a voice resonates in the living room.

"We are back" Shout Priscilla while appearing with Hikari and Jack

"Ohh we have a new guest!" Say Haruka when she sees them after being quiet earlier while looking at his son proudly

"Kazuma, let me introduce my last teammate who will stay with us for the vacation!" Say Linoa while bringing him, which was followed by his new partner but also with Lisa and her new friend as well

"Jack, this is Kazuma who just join Hiroki's peerage and this is his new friend…" Say Linoa

"Cygnus! This is Cygnus!" Say Kazuma, introducing his new friend

"And this is my new friend, Megumi!" Add Lisa while introducing her white spirit bird

"Wow you finally got your own spirit bird?" Say Jack while looking at her, "Hello, I am Jack, Priscilla's cute cousin!" Did he introduce himself

"Who is cute!" Shout Priscilla while knocking his head

"Ouch! It's hurt…" Did he complain

"Sigh… I really miss the time when you were still shy and timid, you were so much cuter at that time!" Say Priscilla while ignoring his complain, "But I am glad that you both find your spirit bird, specially you Lisa!"

Indeed, right now everyone in Linoa's peerage got their own spirit beast, even Jack got one, and well to be honest it's also him and his spirit beast who give me the idea for the bonsai's house design since indeed his little spirit beast lot look like a squirrel, well an orange flying squirrel to be more precise, that he found here when he come to visit us during last year. People call it a Taritsua and it suppose to bring some luck to people who saw it.

Honestly, I don't know if this urban legend is true or not, but for sure, Jack is really happy with him and even without his spirit beast, that he call him Pott for some little funny reason, he was already a lucky kid. That's maybe why he was able to got this one, who knows…

"Kaixin still didn't find his spirit beast yet?" Ask Hikari next to me while looking at the Kuja who were looking for a place to stay while the snow Kuzasu who accompany Megumi already choose one bonsai for himself

"No, not yet! But I am sure one day he will find his new friend!" Did I reply, "So how was it?" Did I ask her while sitting on a sofa while looking at our new friends

"I went to the Sayome's home to deliver our invitation but look like they left early morning to visit some relatives according to their neighbor! So I just left it there for when they will be back." Say Hikari

"Ohh? Well it's okay, let see about this later!" Did I reply while looking at the pond, "We really need to buy some fish soon…"

It appears that Ingrid met Satsuki, Satoshi'sister and friend of Kazuma, at her school last month. It seems that she helped Ingrid when some older students started to bully her before she was able to 'kick their ass", according to her!

Since then, they started to become friends and started to talk few by few or even meet each other during some lunchtime. They even share their mails few days ago to keep in touch during the summer vacation.

And according to Kazuma and how his friend and his sister are, it seem they are much more trustful person than the friend Ingrid first plan to invite here, due my invitation to them if in case they want to join us few days here.

"Come on kids! It's time to eat!" Shout Haruka from the kitchen after she finishes to prepare the table, making everyone gathering there, including both of us

After a nice dinner I was quietly relaxing in the Japanese onsen alone since the other boys prefer togo to their own room to play together. At least it's been a long time that I didn't had some little free time for myself past week to relax quietly while looking at the stars, but of course it was just a short dream when I suddenly see someone sitting next to me.

"You know that this is the boy bath!" Did I say to the person next to me

"Who care since there is nobody here!"

"I am here!"

"What? It's not like we never took a bath together!"

"That was when we were younger and also because of our parents fault! So why are you here Phoebe?"

"I just want to enjoy some relaxing moment with you!"

"Are you a little worry about what Linoa said to me last night about my mother's family?"

"Hmm, yes a few… It makes me a little worry, it's true! Specially if they find that you have this sword with you!"

"Maybe you are right, but for some reason, I trust the owner when he said that he will not reveal about this as long as he can, and well he also gave me an other sword to use too for the meantime!"

"Yes I also trust him too and I think you were right to take it today, at least it's safer to have it with us than them!"

"Yes!" Did I reply while taking the sword out from my bracelet and looking at the name that was engrave on it "H. Doragon", one of the five founder of the Shinsai Magical School…

"Promise me to always be careful!"

"Hmm, I will, and well aren't you also always beside me for protecting me?" Did I tease her

"Hmph…!" Did she only reply while punching my shoulder lightly for then looking at the stars with a big smile on her face
