Taka"s mind couldn"t process his current situation. If this were a cartoon smoke would be able to seen coming from his ears.Try as he may, he wasn"t able to string a complete sentence together.
Confused and bewildered he tried to speak.
"Wha..?"
"The..?"
"h.e.l.l…?"
"H-H-H-How?"
No matter how hard he tried, to figure out how Maya remembered their past lives; he couldn"t. The more he thought the more confused he became.
The more confused he became the more bewildered he became.
A vicious cycle became to spin in Taka"s mind.
The system tried to calm him but nothing helped.
The cycle continued.
That was until Taka felt a warm soft hand on his shoulder. Startled by the suddenness of the touch, Taka looked up only to be stared back at by Maya"s big beautiful blue eyes.
A smirk filled her face as she purred. Running her fingers through his hair.
"You okay there?.."
"My…"
"Little…"
"Reaper.."
The confusion in Taka"s mind drifted away with that simple run of her fingers through his hair; though he winced slightly at the nickname.
Finally pulling himself together, mind calming his demeanour became to change once again.
Back straightening.
Eyes sharpening.
His presence growing.
The world calmed around him as if kneeling to an emperor.
A giggle was released by Maya seeing his change, not showing the slightest negative reaction to it; if anything she had a look of pride and awe as she gave him the once over.
The reason Taka had changed so suddenly before Maya was simple, He didn"t recognise this Maya or at least she didn"t feel like his Maya.
Seeing his reaction to her Maya"s eyes glowed with a mischievous glint.
"Come on baby don"t you recognise me?..."
Maya purred.
Taka took a step back, cold sweat beginning to run down his back.
The system became to issue warning after warning.
[WARNING, WARNING, WARNING, WARNING, WARNING]
[INDIVIDUAL KNOWN AS "MAYA" IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS]
[INDIVIDUAL KNOWN AS "MAYA" IS TOO POWERFUL FOR HOST TO ENGAGE]
[SYSTEM RECOMMENDS HOST ...…..]
The system paused trying to find the right words to say.
When the system eventually found the words to use instead of saying it normally the system screamed.
[...…GETS THE h.e.l.l OUT OF THERE!!!!!!!!!!!]
[RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
Taka wasted no time and bolted away as fast as his legs would physically take him. The reason he ran as soon as the system told him to was because of two things.
The first was the way the normally cynical almost robotic system had reacted, I mean the system literally had a mental breakdown.
The second reason was the fact his instincts told him to run and his instincts were almost never wrong.
Seeing him run, Maya simply snorted before taking one step and appearing right beside him.
Taka"s eyes widened. It had to be known that Taka was running at a speed most hyper cars can"t reach let alone a person.
Maya appearing beside him shocked him enough for him to lose his footing and fly into a big oak tree. After a few b.u.mps and bounces his back hit firmly against the tree.
Opening his eyes as cartoon birds and stars flew around his head, he could make out a silhouette stalking toward him.
A grin of pleasure plastered across her face.
A look in her eye as if she had finally found prey that was worth her time.
