Arcana Magi Cross: Kame's Song
by H-M Brown
Kame landed ashore, only the full moon gave him light. His flippers pushed his turtle back shell over the wet sand. The waves assisted in pushing him forward, until he reached the dry sand. He saw a small resort town ahead. The lights were out in the businesses and homes. There was no one nearby. Exhausted from his trip, he turned around ready to rest a bit before he searched for a safe spot to sleep for the night. With the bright moon's reflection off the ocean, he could almost see a flash of memory of Manami. Despite Ai's words echoing that it was not his fault, for the first time in his life, he felt it was. He stared deep at the ocean, his mind focused at the bubbling waves that crashed onto land. Mana soon enveloped him and he sang.
Rest tonight my Avatar
May your sleep bring dreams to your heart
A dream that brightens your sky
That allows you to reach high
Know that you are not alone
Where ever you may go
Become the amazing star
So I may watch you from afar
Be brilliant my friend
And never let it end
For when I look up in the night
I know that is you shining bright
May you ride the tide
May the currents guide
Our time together
Our friendship forever
Kame hummed softly, and bubbles from the ocean rose into the sky. Mixed with Mana, each one shined bright in the moonlight, a near rainbow formed. He could see Manami among the floating bubbles; he could feel her smile as he shed a tear. A pain eased as he kept humming, unaware of a house light turning on from the distance, and a girl looked out from the window.
THE END
Ahh, a sweetly weird and funny Valentine. The girl looking out the window is such a nice touch!
