A few hours ter, Kronii is now sleeping on Fauna's thighs with her arms wrapped around her stomach. While Fauna brushes her hair softly, Kronii starts making noises and she quickly puts her hand away as her eyes slowly open.
Kronii:" Nghh... Man, best nap ever... " She says while getting up and stretching her arms.
She gets startled upon seeing Fauna next to her, smiling.
Fauna:" Looks like you slept well."
Kronii:" I uhhh... D-did I fall asleep on you?!"
Fauna:" You sure did. Don't worry, I don't mind. "
Kronii quickly gets up from the bed as her whole face turns bright red.
Kronii:" Okay umm, I gotta go! I need to talk to Om- I mean, Her Majesty! "
Fauna:" Oh, does this mean you won't look for other versions of me?"
Kronii calms down a bit upon hearing the question, and opens her mouth to speak.
Kronii:" Yeah, I don't think there's a need for that anymore. You're the one. I'll be back soon. "
She disappears as Fauna's face turns red at her words.
Fauna:" That's weird; her face became so red when she woke up and saw me..." She says and then touches her own cheek. " And I think mine is too now... "
Kronii appears in her own room, and she pces her hand on her chest.
Kronii:" Why... Ever since I woke up and saw her, my heart's been beating like crazy. Is something wrong with me? I-I'll just ignore it." She shakes her head before disappearing once again.
Kronii returns to the Council base with Omega waiting for her at the table.
Omega:" You are not screaming this time. I assume your search was successful?"
Kronii:" You need to even ask?! You saw that st one, didn't you?"
Omega looks to her side as a holographic screen appears, showing 1337 Fauna feeding various animals fruit.
Omega:" You mean this one?"
Kronii:" Yes, that one! She's perfect!"
Omega:" Perfect, you say?"
Kronii:" Well, not perfect, I'M perfect! She's just pretty good I guess. Anyways, I want that one!" She says as she points her finger toward the screen.
Omega raises an eyebrow at her before responding.
Omega:" You want her?"
Kronii:" Well, I don't WANT her, I just want her to be with me- WITH US! Sana is here too, you know!"
Omega:" I am well aware. Very well, I can see you like this one. Bring her to me."
Kronii:" Got it!"
Kronii disappears and reappears before the door of Fauna's house.
Kronii:(Odd, I don't know why, but I felt weird saying those things back then. My face from some reason started feeling hot the more I talked about her...)
She takes a deep breath and exhales, then slowly raises her hand to knock on her door, and Fauna comes out shortly after.
Fauna:" Oh you're back quick!"
Kronii:" Yeah, I told Her Majesty about you and she told me to bring you to her! "
Fauna:" Bring me to her? How will you do that?"
Kronii:" Oh don't worry, all I have to do is be touching you and we can teleport together. So, are you ready to meet Her Majesty?"
As Fauna nods her head, Kronii puts her hand on her shoulder and they both disappear. They appear in front of the Council table, where Omega is sitting in the middle, and Sana sitting to her side.
Kronii:" We are here. "
Omega:" Welcome, Ms. Nature. My name is Omega Alpha. Would you be so kind to introduce yourself to us? "
Fauna gets startled upon hearing that voice, and she quickly opens her mouth to speak.
Fauna:” Y-yes! I’m Ceres Fauna, The Embodiment of Nature!” (Her voice sounded familiar somehow…)
Sana:” Oh I should introduce myself too! I’m Tsukumo Sana, the Embodiment of Space!” She says with a huge smile on her face.
Kronii:” And I’m Ouro Kronii, Time, but you already knew that.”
Omega:” Now that we have introduced ourselves, I would like you two to take a seat at the table.”
The two nod and as Fauna starts to walk towards the table; Kronii quickly walks in front of her.
Kronii:" I'll go sit over there." She says while pointing at the chair next to Sana. " And you sit next to me. "
As Kronii sits next to her, she looks at her with her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
Sana:” Hm? That was weird. You want her sitting next to just you and not me? What’s up with that?”
Kronii:" Wh-what?! I-I don’t want her sitting next to only me or anything! I just thought we were supposed to sit in the order of creation!"
Sana:” Okay, if you say so.”
Kronii, with a slight blush on her face, just crosses her arms and ignores her, while Fauna's eyes widen for a split second upon hearing that, and she opens her mouth to speak while sitting down.
Fauna:" Order of creation? Does that mean-"
Omega:" Yes, that is correct. I have also created you, Ceres Fauna. I created everything after all. I apologize for not speaking to you as I have to these two, but as Ouro Kronii must have already told you; there are an infinite amount of versions of you. I did not wish to speak to one if they were not to become a member of The Council. However, I did tell you something which I hope you still remember. To spread life throughout Earth. That is the only thing I have told all of you."
Fauna:" Y-yes, I definitely remember those words! No wonder your voice sounded familiar when I first heard it… You don't have to apologize, that's understandable. "
Omega:” I am gd you understand. Now then, could you tell us a few things about yourself, Ceres Fauna?”
Fauna shifts her eyes upwards as she puts her hand on her chin.
Fauna:” Hmm…” She says as she looks back down at Omega.“ I don’t think I have anything interesting to say about myself… Oh, I’m a Kirin!” She says as she points at her horns.
As she’s about to continue Kronii quickly interrupts her.
Kronii:” Ohh! Is that a type of tree?!”
She quickly turns to her while pouting.
Fauna:” No! Kirins are creatures! We just have horns like these…” she says and looks at Omega.“ As I was about to say, I mostly spend time in my forest, but I enjoy other parts of the pnet too. I like to take care of any creatures I come by and sometimes I would bring them to my forest too. I also like to make sure that every part of the pnet is thriving in its own way, if some parts aren’t doing so well, I help them out… That’s about it!’
Omega:” That is all quite nice of you. You truly are what the Embodiment of Nature should be like.”
Fauna:” Thank you; it means a lot to hear you say that.” She says and looks at Sana.“ So, what about you? I don’t know much about you yet. What do you do?”
Sana:” Me? Well, I don’t do that much, I mostly spend my time sleeping. OH! I also have three forms! This one is the least cool…” She says while pouting and then points to her limiter.“ This thing on my head is a limiter and if I take it off, I become BIG! I can even eat pnets, stars and bck holes! I do that sometimes when I’m not sleeping.”
Fauna’s eyes widen with concern upon hearing that.
Fauna:” Y-you eat pnets!?”
Sana:” Yeah, I decided to try it one day and they tasted pretty good! “
Omega:” Worry not, Ceres Fauna. I have already told Sana not to eat any pnets with life on them. “
Fauna lets out a sigh of relief and Sana giggles.
Sana:” Right, I guess I should’ve mentioned that! Don’t worry; lifeless pnets are better anyways because they’re nice and cold. If I want to eat something hot, I’ll just eat a star!”
Fauna:” T-that makes sense! “ She says and then turns to Omega.“ Oh umm wait, am I already a member of your group or do I need to do something special to become a part of it?”
Omega:” You do not need to do anything, Ceres Fauna. We have invited you to join The Council; all you have to do is accept.”
Fauna looks at Kronii before looking back at Omega with a smile on her face.
Fauna:” I accept! But umm, what is going to be my role here? What am I supposed to do now that I’m a member?”
Omega:" All you need to do is keep Nature on Earth alive and well. Although it seems you were already doing just that. Which means you may simply continue living your daily life as you were. However, if I am to give you some kind of a special task, you do it. Furthermore, I have also given you the ability to teleport to the Council base and back to Earth whenever you desire. ”
Fauna:" That all sounds good to me! Is there anything else I need to know? Cause if this is all, I can just go, right?"
Omega:" Yes, this is all. You may now leave."
Fauna smiles as she stands up and Kronii gets up right after.
Fauna:" Alright then, I'll be on my way. Thank you for inviting me here! "
Omega:" You may thank Ouro Kronii, she is the one who chose you. But do not worry; she will not bother you anymore."
The two girls' eyes widen and they both open their mouth to speak at the same time.
Kronii:" I won't? "
Fauna:" She won't?"
Omega:" My apologies, was she not bothering you? I suppose you may spend time together if you wish. Ouro Kronii simply never took any interest in anything, only ever stayed in her house, and so I assumed that would remain the same now that she has completed her mission. I am not forbidding it, if that is what you had thought. "
Fauna:" Oh no, no, she definitely wasn't bothering me! It's the first time I met someone that looked simir to me and it was really interesting listening to her talk too!"
Kronii blushes slightly upon hearing that, then clears her throat and goes back to her usual bnk expression.
Omega:" I am happy to hear that. In that case, Ouro Kronii, go walk our new member back to her house."
Kronii:" Y-yes, your Majesty! "
Kronii quickly gets up from her chair, as Sana looks at them with a smile on her face and waves. As they both disappear, Sana turns to Omega.
Sana:” Okay, I have to ask, but since when can Kronii’s face change colors? I don’t remember her doing that before…”
Omega just smiles and doesn’t respond.
The two concepts are now in front of Fauna's house. She walks inside and then turns around to Kronii, who's still standing at the entrance.
Fauna:" Do you want to come in? "
Kronii:" Uhh... M-maybe ter."
Fauna:" Okay, just remember, you can visit me anytime you want! ~"
Kronii:" G-got it!"
Fauna turns around while closing the door as Kronii looks at her, then gulps nervously. She disappears and appears in the white space she calls "home".
Kronii:” My heart is acting weird again. Is it because of her? But I still don't understand... Should I ask Her Majesty what's wrong with me?... No, I don’t want to bother her with something like this. I-I'll just try to ignore it.”
She sits down and gets in her meditating position. A few minutes ter, her eyes and mouth start twirling around, as the image of Fauna's smiling face keeps popping in her head.
Kronii:(Why do I keep seeing her face? Dammit, focus!)
Over the course of an hour, she keeps trying to meditate, but to no avail, Fauna's face won't leave her mind. She gets up and lets out a sigh.
Kronii:(Well, I guess she did say I can visit her whenever I want.)
She teleports in front of her door; then knocks and Fauna quickly opens the door, almost as if she had been waiting for her to knock.
Kronii:" So you want to hang out or something?!"
Fauna:" Heh, that was fast." (Finally!)
Fauna goes back inside as she opens her door wide, letting Kronii in. They walk towards her bedroom and both sit on the bed.
Fauna:" So, what do you want to do?
Kronii:" Umm... Can I sleep on you again?"
Fauna:" That's what you wanted?! I mean, I don't mind, but you did that recentl-"
Kronii:" You don't mind? Great! "
Without a second thought, she pces her head against Fauna's thighs and closes her eyes, making her flinch and let out a faint gasp.
Fauna:" H-hey! Are you serious now?" She asks, but gets no response."There's no way you're already asleep... Sheesh."
After a few hours pass, Kronii, while still somewhat asleep, sniffs the scent of cold peppermint tea. As her nose keeps wiggling, she slowly opens her eyes and sits up to a table with two cups of tea in front of her. As she turns her head, Fauna is looking at her with a pouting face.
Kronii:" What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Fauna:" Expin yourself! Am I just a pillow to you?!"
Kronii:" The heck is a pillow?"
With her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, Fauna points her finger towards the pillow on her bed.
Fauna:" Uhhh that. You know, where you would usually sleep on. "
Kronii:" Oh I don't have that. Or this thing we're sitting on."
Fauna:" You don't have a bed?! What do you sleep on then, the floor?"
Kronii:" I don't have anything actually."
Fauna slowly blinks a few times before opening her mouth to speak.
Fauna:" I'm going to need you to eborate. "
Kronii:" I think it'll be easier if I just show you... "
Kronii waves her hand and a holographic screen showing her room appears before them.
Fauna looks at it intently, not sure of what she's seeing.
Fauna :" Umm... What am I looking at, exactly? "
Kronii:" This is my house, I guess. Her Majesty created this dimension for me and asked me what else I wanted in it, but I just said nothing and this is how it's been ever since."
Fauna:" Oh wow... How can you even live like this? I mean, I did make my house and all the stuff in it with my powers, but I’m sure Omega could’ve done the same for you."
Kronii:" Well, Her Majesty made the dimension before any life even existed. Before beds or pillows existed. And I just never cared enough to leave it and explore the world, so I never knew what else came to be as the time passed. Until I was given the task to find you, that is."
Fauna listens closely and after taking a sip of her tea, she looks at her with a smile on her face she opens her mouth to speak.
Fauna:" Well then, what changed? Why do you care now? "
Kronii:" I think it's you. There's something about you that makes me feel something I've never felt before. I... I want to keep feeling like that."
Fauna turns her head away to hide her blushing face, then looks back at her with a smug expression.
Fauna:" It's not just my thighs, is it? You did come here and immediately wanted to sleep on me again! But I guess that makes sense, given that you've been sleeping on nothing this whole time..."
Kronii:" It's not just the thighs, but I can't really expin it either. Maybe I'll understand these feelings better in the future..."
Fauna:(It's not just the thighs, she says...)
Kronii:" As for the sleeping, I actually need to sleep a lot in order to keep time flowing properly. I can also do it by meditating and I tried that today, but I just couldn't focus. " She says and continues talking as Fauna is about to take a sip of her tea." Your face kept popping up in my head in my head from some reason. "
As Kronii reaches to grab her tea, Fauna chokes on hers upon hearing that, and Kronii just stares at her blushing face.
Fauna:" Y-you kept seeing my face?!"
Kronii:" Yeah. I kept trying to ignore it and continue for an hour, but it didn't work. Hey, your face is really red now from some reason."
Fauna:" I-it must be from the tea..."
Kronii takes a sip from her tea and her eyes widen for a split second upon tasting it.
Kronii:" Oh hey, you made that other version of it with ice! This is even better. " She says and takes a look at Fauna's cup." Hmm, how did your face get red from the tea if you have the ice version too?"
Fauna:" I-I don't know! Can we just ignore that please?" (Seriously, why is my face like this?...)
Kronii:" Alright then. Wait, how did you make this tea if you were sitting here the whole time? "
Fauna:" Oh uhhh... You don't want to know..."
Kronii's eyebrows furrow at her response.
Kronii:" Why not?"
Fauna:" Well, you might think it's weird..."
Kronii:" I doubt it'll be weirder than those other versions of you I've seen. "
Fauna lets out a sigh before opening her mouth to speak.
Fauna:" I guess I'll just show you, it'll be easier than trying to expin."
She puts both her hands down and hand that looks just like hers emerges from the table, grabs her cup and stretches the arm towards her mouth to drink it. Kronii just stares at her as her arm detracts back into the table.
Kronii:" Umm, okay, I'm gonna need you to expin as well."
Fauna:" Because I'm Nature, I can become one with anything on the pnet and also make my body parts come out of anywhere. So basically, I made my arms and eyes come out in the kitchen and made the tea like that. "
Kronii:" Oh wow... That's... Pretty cool!"
Fauna:" I knew it! You think it's weird, don't you?! "
Kronii backs away slightly while shaking her hands in front of her face in denial.
Kronii:" No, no, I'm serious! Say, just hypothetically speaking, could you do that with your legs too? "
Fauna:"... Are two of my thighs not enough for you?!"
Kronii:" Hmm… I’m thinking two more would be perfect, so then I can hug them while I sleep on the other two. "
Fauna looks at her with a pouting blushing face.
Fauna:" Grr you... "
Kronii:” Hey rex, I’m kidding!” (Her face is red again... So cute...)
Fauna:” Okay, that’s it!”
She grabs Kronii by her arm and gets up, making her do it too.
Kronii:” What, y-you’re kicking me out? Are you THAT mad!?”
Fauna:” No, you dummy. I’m just tired of you zying around like that. I know you have to sleep and all that, but that can’t be the only thing you’re doing! I won’t allow it! Come with me.”
While still holding her arm, she walks away and out of the house.
Kronii:” Where are we going?”
Fauna stops and turns around to look at her before responding.
Fauna:” Everywhere! There’s so much you haven’t seen, so much you don’t know about, Kronii. I want to show you my beautiful world.”
While unable to respond, Kronii just smiles and nods her head. Fauna lets go of her arm to grab her hand instead, before turning around and continuing to walk, with Kronii following her.
To be Continued…
SORRY FOR THE WAIT!!! While some parts of this chapter were difficult and I wasn't sure about some things, I was just procrastinating a lot and I'm sorry for that. Honestly, since Invincible came back, I've been spending some time watching videos regarding it and also arguing with some unintelligent people in the comments. Good thing the st episode will come tomorrow lol. But even if it didn't, I won't waste my time on that anymore! I decided to LOCK IN and finish this part of the story as fast as possible, so I can get back to Faunii! Wish me luck!
Anyways, hope you liked the chapter!! :D
