Laces, Takanashii and Chiiro

Inohara takes out the contract and hands it to me. I throw it up and call out to Chiiro.

" Yes, master."

" Hold that for me, will you ?"

" Yes, master."

" Let's start," I tell Inohara.

" Ah, get this over with quick. I have work to do after this."

" Boo, so boring. Fine ! I'll get this over with quickly."

" Re - contract."

The contract turns to me and glows purple. Inohara looks at the contract and gasps.

" Purple. That's the first time I've seen that flame."

" This flame doesn't belong to my family. It's mine. A flame I've made. It's the Takanashi flame."

" So your the one who -"

" Ah, let's get this over with."

" I take Takanashi as my servant. All my pain and sorrow she will carry with her and all her happiness I shall carry. Takanahi do you agree to the terms ?"

" Yes."

I lean in and kiss her. She closes her eyes and curses me.

" That's it. It's easier to change the contract than creating it."

" That's a nice scoop."

" Tell me something ?," Inohara looks at me.

" Hmm."

" Why did you want to creat a contract with me. What about my wish ?"

" That's already fulfilled."

" You don't even know what I've wished for."

" I can guess."

" I want to meet the heroic flame master, right ?," I say mocking her.

" How would you know that ?," she asks not surprised at all.

" He is after all someone I know," I say.

" Really ?"

" Yea. He's very selfish and has no shame what so ever."

" Sounds like someone I know."

" Shut up, like your one to talk. Showing your panties on the first day of our meeting."

" Tha-tha-that was only a.. shut up already."

" Wanna leave. We have people on our tail already."

" Ah. Fine by me."

" I take my Walkman and leave the place. Make sure you get home safely."

" Ah.. I know already."

I run down form the school rooftop and stop near the entrance.

" If you don't come out I'll break that camera that's above me."

There was a moment of silence. Then I heard a twig in the distance snap.

" Chiiro."

" Yes, master."

" Break that camera."

" Yes, master."

Chiiro speeds up toward it and was about to punch it.

" Stop ! That's the only familiar I have," a girl shouted from the distance.

I take the camera and look at the photo displayed.

" Oh-ho ! I see. Your interested in what we do huh ?"

" It's-its not like that," she whispers.

" Then how do you explain this ?"

" My camera sometimes does things on its own. But if I like the photo I keep it."

" I see. I'm not mad don't worry."

" Huh ?"

" In fact I'm in a good mood. I'll teach you how to keep your camera in check."

" Really ?"

" Yea."

" Thank you so much."

" What's its name anyway ?"

" Takanahii."

" Chiiro, help me out over here."

" Yes, master."
