My Story: Nina's Fear, Taro's Help

So here is the next part of My Story. I moved recently and am in the process of finding a job so I will be pretty busy with that but will continue to post.

Opening

During gym class, Nina refuses to go in the pool but will not say why. Taro notices this and brushes it off as Nina being prissy and not wanting to ruin her hair.

Summary

While searching for a gem near a small river, Takeshi, Taro, and Angel go into the water but Nina refuses. Taro pushes her in causing her to panic only to realize the water is only 3 feet deep. Nina, angry, gets out and pulls Taro in and the two start fighting. Angel and Nina break them up and Nina admits she's afraid of water. Taro decides to help Nina overcome her fear along with Takeshi and Angel. The next day at public pool Taro and Takeshi tell how they were taught to swim at a young age and Angel says she's always naturally been drawn to water. Nina is able to get in but doesn't want to go into the deep end. The next day they are attacked by one of Kyofusho's insect mutants. Kyofusho snatches a gem and throws it into the river. Taro dives after it but Kumori dives in to drown Taro. Nina heroically jumps in instantly overcoming her fear. Taro and Nina surface alive but Kumori takes a gem and gets away with it. 

Ending

While Taro is mad about losing a gem to Kumori and Kyofusho he thanks Nina for saving him and overcoming her fear. Takeshi and Angel acknowledge that Taro and Nina are starting to be nicer and seem to care more about each other recently as opposed to their usual fighting.

Overview

So Taro is did something nice for Nina and we are starting to see them actually care about each other and not argue. Stay tuned for my next post.

My Story: The Possessed Hatchling

I've been pretty busy this month as I have moved to a different state. But I will give another post from My Story. Here Kyofusho decides to use another trick to gain control of our heroes.

Opening

Kyofusho finds a lizard hatchling and proceeds to injure it and then possess it to gain control of the group knowing they're animal lovers.

Summary

Angel finds the injured lizard hatchling and decides to take it home and keep it as a pet while rehabilitating it. Takeshi and Taro suspect something unusual about the lizard but let Angel take it home. The lizard then follows Angel everywhere including to school which baffles everyone. Taro and Nina both suspect Kyofusho might be playing a trick. Angel appears but doesn't seem herself, she acts rudely and demands to know where the scrolls and gems are kept. Takeshi realizes she is being possessed by Kyofusho and he quickly finds the lizard and uses his powers to sense the prescence of Kyofusho. Takeshi finds a rare plant that is said to be the antidote which he feeds to Angel which causes her to snap out of it. Angel thanks Takeshi for saving her.

Ending

After Takeshi and Angel release the lizard, they find a turtle hatchling. Takeshi can tell it is not possessed by Kyofusho and gives it to Angel as a gift.

Overview

Unfortunately that is another filler episode. I've been busy with adjusting to a new place but I will continue to post. Stay tuned for my next post.

My Story: Hawkwing

Now we have a post in My Story and here I will introduce a new character. Like I mentioned this new character will throw things for a curveball and add conflict to the story.

Opening

A flashback shows a 11-year-old Nina meeting Hawkwing, a 15-year-old hawk obake with powers of  birds of prey. Nina befriends him and even develops a slight infatuation with him as both have had loved ones killed by anti-obake activists.

Summary

Hawkwing moves to Japan and Nina recognizes him. Taro immediately becomes jealous and suspicious of Hawkwing as he's friendly to Nina and Angel but acts cold to him. Takeshi tells him he understands his feelings but shouldn't stoop low about it and should handle it maturely. The next day they gang encounter demons sent by Kyofusho. Hawkwing comes in and defeats them easily singlehandedly. While Nina is grateful Taro believes it could be set up as Hawkwing could probably not have defeated them that easily. An annoyed Nina tells Taro that he should be grateful which starts an argument between Taro and Nina.

Ending

In a secret location Hawkwing meets with Kyofusho and his allies to tell him that the plan went perfectly revealing Hawkwing is joining forces with the main villains of the story. For now it is unknown to the main characters. The demon attack with Hawkwing saving everyone was setup by Kyofusho and Hawkwing.

Overview

So we have a new character who we see is on the villains side unknown to our main heroes. Tune in for the next post.

My Story: Taro and Nina, In Love?

 So after I posted my previous chapter/episode of My Story with Takeshi and Angel going on a first date, now Taro and Nina will be getting some action.

Opening 

While walking home from school, Taro and Nina begin arguing yet again. Nina blames Taro for giving her wrong answers for a quiz in class, resulting in both getting poor grades. Taro insists he didn't know the answers entirely but was pretty sure he was right as he was taking the quiz.

Summary

Takeshi and Angel get fed up with the arguing and intervene. Angel says that while they don't have to see eye to eye on everything they should try to talk without arguing and act more mature. Takeshi says that as a team they will be weaker when divided and they must come together if they want to continue their journey with success. They decide to split up with Angel talking to Nina about her feelings. Nina talks about her childhood with Takeshi and Taro and Angel asks if she may like Taro romantically. Nina is surprised and denies it but Angel insists she just won't admit it and tells her that the way they act is like a couple and that she probably likes Taro. Nina just says she's unsure. Meanwhile Takeshi asks Taro what his deal with Nina is. Taro says she's temperamental (a bit hypocritical as Taro's the most short tempered of the 4) and a perfectionist. Takeshi asks if he may like Nina which shocks Taro and he says he doesn't think it's the case. The next day Taro and Nina meet up and apologize to each other and decide to help each other in their skills for the next mission. Takeshi and Angel meet up with them working together to their surprise. Just then another demon and ally of Kyofusho, Osore comes in. Osore's tactic is to use fear against his opponents. Taro and Nina tell Takeshi and Angel to stand down so they can prove themselves. Osore catches Nina in her fear, thunder and lighting which Taro helps her out of hit. Taro is then faced with his fear, needles! Nina makes a hit followed by Taro which forces Osore to retreat.

Ending

Taro and Nina congratulate each other for their success and how much they've improved. This makes Takeshi and Angel happy to see them getting along and working together. When Angel says again how they look like a couple Taro and Nina blush with embarrassment.

Overview

So now we're getting to see Taro and Nina's love-hate relationship and the tsundere Nina begin to change and start becoming nicer. Next we'll introduce a new character who will throw things for a curveball.
