“So, tell me about your problems.”
An old and wise-looking man sat on the edge of his chair, looking at the young girl in front of him. The young girl might have been beautiful, but years of neglect had taken their turn on her. Her long blue hair covered up her entire face, writhing and moving about as if alive. Indeed, rather than hair, they seemed to be tendrils or tentacles. It was as if an alien had landed on the girl’s head and taken over her mind.
Yet, none of this unnerved the physician. He was old, and old people generally had loads and loads of experience in dealing with stuff. Hell, the old man was married, for God’s sake, and married people go through virtually hell. Dealing with a troubled young girl – weird living hair or not – was nothing compared to dealing with his bitch of a wife. The man fondly put a hand on his copy of Dr. Phil’s Therapy For Idiots and smiled. Ah, the book that had allowed him to get up to this point in life. He had read the book over and over, up to the point where he could pull out any line from the book at any time.

“Ugh…” A young man lay on a bed – or what might have passed for a bed, had it not been a fucking hammock – with a hand over his face. His face was wracked with pain, and a groan made its way through his lips. His other hand swung slightly back and forth from the side of the hammock, devoid of life. “I… I don’t think… I’m going to… make… it…”
“No! You have to get better!” Tears streaming from his eyes, a young man who knelt beside the hammock grabbed his tormented friend’s hand and clung onto it as if his life depended on it. The young man’s long silver hair shook as the young man trembled in sorrow, and he leaned over his friend. Looking at his friend’s face, he drew nearer and…

The boy was climbing a tree.
“Kashi~! Kashi~!”
Narrowing his eyes in annoyance, the young boy climbed further up the tree, hoping that when she came by, she would not spot him. He panted for breath as he neared the peak, and looked at the next branch in his way. The distance between his position and the branch was longer than usual, and a mis-step could kill him. It could be very, very dangerous. Kashi smiled. He would have it no other way.
Balancing himself on the branch, Kashi spread his arms out to balance himself and bent his knees slightly in order to prepare himself for the jump that might or might not kill him. Swinging himself back and forth, Kashi mentally counted down. Five… four… three… two… o-
“KASHI! YOU GET DOWN FROM THAT TREE RIGHT NOW!”
