The two of them trudged on, admiring the new scape which their music had brought about. "This is life," Hyde muttered. Tetsu glanced over, and raised his head towards the sky. Hyde did so too-- the sunlight was peeking through the canopy, and the birds were singing in the freshened morning. "Yes, this is life," Tetsu replied. The two of them climbed up a tree, a fruit tree. Neither of them were sure what fruit it was, but they sat down on its branches, among the birds, and plucked the sweet fruit from their branches. A monkey swung by the vines, and snatched the fruit from Tetsu's hand. The two of them laughed, amused, as Tetsu simply plucked another one. The peace was soon disturbed by the rustling of the foilage, even though there was no threat. Yuki and Ken emerged, and from below they looked up at them. "Hey there." Tetsu jumped down, his red hair blown from his face as he landed onto the moss covered ground. "We're having breakfast." "Yuki and I just had some too, we thought we would find you first," Ken said cheerfully. Yuki grinned. Hyde hopped down, too. The day was too beautiful to waste. "You guys.. .Wanna explore this new land?" They nodded. The magical balance of nature was there, and they were there to make sure that it would not be tipped. And then maybe the balance could change the whole world-- not just the place where the scientists lived in. by hidoko matsumoto http://xz0ne.cjb.net voidmatsumoto@yahoo.co.uk
