Casualties
Kai never understood why Gotz didn't like white. He never understood why Rick didn't like him. There were a lot of things about Mineral Town that he didn't quite understand. Maybe someday he would, if he stayed there for a little longer, but he had a home and things to do in the city even if sometimes his family drove him mad. He loved to take a break from it all and visit Mineral Town in the summer. He never liked the cold so in the winter he headed south.
His most regular customers were Popuri, when ever she got away from Rick, and a young farmer who had recently moved into town. Time seemed to move slower in that quiet, small town. Kai wasn't sure if he liked it or not but it was peaceful so it wasn't a bad thing. It was just so different from like in the city.
Back home he knew a girl named Aja, possibly the daughter of Duke and Manna. Her story seemed to match. He was close to mentioning it once but was warned by both Popuri and the farmer not to do it. It would not cause Aja to return, but it would cause him to be drowned in questions by Manna. She was talkative and always followed who ever had information about the city where her daughter lived.
Kai noted that the couple had taken a liking to Cliff, almost as if he were their son. He also knew that the young lady farmer was torn between him and Cliff and Kai was torn between her and Popuri. Then again, he didn't really feel like having a serious relationship at the moment. He wanted to travel and see the world. Cliff looked more like someone who would settle down.
Regardless of all his thoughts, Kai was bored, time passed by too slowly in that town. He decided to visit Zack's house and see how business was. Not surprisingly, Won was happy that a new customer had arrived even if Kai didn't initially have any intentions of buying anything, but Won kept showing him merchandise.
Trying to get away from the merchant, Kai decided to talk to Zack. He noticed he had many pictures of Lillia all over the far wall of the room next to his bed. It was obvious he liked her but for the sake of starting a conversation; Kai came close to asking the obvious question he really shouldn't ask, but there was a blackout.
Kai regretted staying out at the beach late, he regretted knocking on Zack door late; he regretted being stuck. It was odd really but everyone seemed to freeze when there was a blackout. The farmer had once admitted to standing next to her bed the entire time until the power came back on, instead of actually going to be like she originally planned to do.
The minutes passed, dragging on forever like years. "Now what?" Kai finally asked.
"We must wait," Won replied. "I have more merchandise to show you after the power comes back on."
"Well it's time for me to go on home!" Kai headed for the door but a stopped as he heard a loud noise, it was the sound of the roaring wind.
"My glow in the dark clock says it is midnight," Won informed them.
"Hurricane," Zack concluded.
Kai was confused. "What?"
"Didn't you watch the weather report? A hurricane was to come tomorrow, I mean today." Zack explained. "It's midnight... A blackout and a hurricane all at once, what back luck." Bad luck? Wasn't it logical? What wasn't logical was the fact that the hurricane was ever so punctual.
"Now what?" Kai repeated his question exasperated.
"We must wait... or maybe sleep until the weather improves?" Won asked.
"Where do you guys sleep anyway?" Kai asked. As far as Kai knew, Won was basically living with Zack and there was only one bed, it wasn't like sharing a room at the inn which had enough beds for everyone.
"In a bed obviously," Zack replied as a matter of fact.
"You mean together?" Kai didn't like the way the conversation was going.
"I believe you are mistaken," Won tried to clarify. "It is young girls who like having sleepovers and sleeping together."
In the farm house, the farmer, Mary, Popuri, Ann, Karen and Elli simultaneously sneezed. Even if the recently purchased 'big bed' was big. It wasn't big enough for a sleepover that included six girls, even after uniting it with the regular bed.
"Yeah, I sleep on my bed and Won sleeps in his box." Zack explained very naturally.
"In a box?" Kai questioned.
"I have extra boxes available if you wish to get some sleep. I will find a box to sell to you." Won tried to find the box in the darkness.
"I'm not interested in buying a box, or sleeping in one," Kai argued, but Won wasn't listening.
"But you can carry many things in it! It is most convenient!" Won wasn't going to take no for an answer.
By a twist of fate, or mischief of the Harvest Goddess, the stacked up boxes came down in a massive avalanche trapping Won, Kai and Zack under them. "Now what?" Kai repeated his seemingly eternal question.
"I'm tired," Zack announced and he promptly fell asleep. It was still dark but Won and Kai could tell Zack was sleeping because of the sound of his loud snoring.
"I told you boxes were very comfortable to sleep in. Maybe you will consider buying one, or a dozen in the morning. Good night customer." Won was already used to sleeping amount the boxes so it wasn't too hard for him to go off to slumber land.
'Now what?' Kai thought. He tried to escape the box avalanche but there were all over the house and he didn't know which way the bed was. Kai thought about sleeping on it since he couldn't go outside and Zack wasn't using it but he never found it in the mess of random boxes. Talk about casualties, when it rains it pours and when it pours it storms.
