ZODIACS

CHAPTER 17

The jet ski that Nicko was riding on was stuck in the current; swirling from the very outside leads inward. Nico looks really panicked. His carefree face turned pale. He held tightly to the jet ski so as not to fall into the stream.

“Kin, please!“ nicko yelled at Kin who looked panicked and frightened by the beach.

Kin ran here and there looking for something that could be used to help his friend. Kin looked towards Leta and Sonia behind him. In his eyes, the two women were seen standing watching this incident from afar. Kin looked at a fishing boat leaning far to his left. Kin thought of finding a rope, a mesh or whatever he could use to pull Nicko to the shore.

Kin ran quickly towards the ship, but unfortunately his feet hit a rock on the beach that made him fall down.

Kin looked at Nicko who was getting pushed into the middle of the vortex. Kin panicked, feeling very panicked. His head was dizzy, he felt like vomiting and was desperate because he did not know what to do to help his friend.

Kin stood up then looked at Leta and Sonia behind him. “Leta, behind you!“ yell Kin at Leta. Kin looked at the figure of a golden-haired ram with a circular horn and a pair of wings on his back. The sheep walked gallantly towards the left side of Leta. “Leta, did you hear me? Watch out!“ yell out Kin once more.

Kin's fear disappeared as the sheep stood firmly beside Leta. He saw Leta smiling at him. Leta seemed like she wanted to say something to Kin. Kin looked at his lips.

“Crhysomallus.“

Kin heard what Leta said. Kin looked to Leta's left side and found that the sheep had already disappeared. Kin's body trembled, then looked towards Nicko who was getting closer to the middle of the vortex and back he looked at Leta—who smiled at him.

Then suddenly Kin fell down, his hand trying to lift his body. His face was red, his tears were dripping. “AAARRRRRggghhh!“ Kin was groaning in pain. His back felt extremely painful, like someone wanted to pull the backbone out of his body.

Kin shouted increasingly loudly. The burning heat complemented the pain he felt on his back.

“Sonia, look,“ Leta said while pointing towards Kin's back.

A golden-colored dimensional portal was visible on Kin's back. That dazzling portal burned the back of the inn uniform you were wearing, then...

... Whusss, a pair of golden-colored wings emerged from the portal that was on Kin's back.

A pair of large wings like the wings of a pigeon flapped, lifting the body of the fallen Kin to float a meter from the ground.

“He is unconscious?“ Sonia.

“Ya, pathetic,“ reply Leta.

Kin, gazing at Nicko, then flew at the speed of an eagle grabbing Nicko's body which was in the whirlpool.

“Ok, killer girl. Stop it, before anyone sees it,“ Leta said.

Sonia stopped her hand movements. His eyes have returned to their original color and the sea looks normal again.

On the other hand, Kin flew away carrying Nicko away from the ocean.

“Kin, you're flying,“ said Nicko stammering.

Kin seemed to be unaware of what was happening. He was like a hypnotized person, moving through his subconscious.

“So, Aries has wings?” ask Sonia.

“Wow, it will look cool!“ reply Sonia while flicking her fingers.

Kin landed Nicko by the beach. He seemed to start to realize and pay attention to the circumstances around him, then found Nicko sitting in front of him.

“Kin, Lo's back,“ Nicko said as he pointed at a pair of wings on his back.

Kin looked at his waiting. “What is this ?!“ kin panicked. Then suddenly Kin flew uncontrollably hovering over the ocean. He was very panicked when he found a pair of wings on his back. His hand tried to take off those wings. Kin started to lose his consciousness and fainted.

The dimensional portal reappeared on his back, the wings on Kin's back slowly disappearing into that dimensional portal. Kin fell from the air hitting the edge of the ocean and sank in the deep ocean.

“Leta, she sank,“ Sonia said.

“Ya, I saw it.“ Leta looked towards Nicko. “Hey, Nick!?“

Nicko looked at Leta. His face was pale, his gaze seemed unfocused, then he also fainted.

“Hey, Leta. He fainted,“ Sonia said.

“Yes, I also saw it,“ reply Leta, then walk towards the ocean in follow Sonia.

Arriving at the beach.

“Since childhood I have never played on the beach with my friends or gone to a crowded beach. You know why?“ Leta put her palm into the water.

Sonia looked at the membrane that appeared between Leta's fingers. The membrane is deep red and the younger the color is on the outside near the nail. The color is shiny, looks beautiful in the eyes. Then Sonia looked into Leta's eyes, her eyeballs turning golden yellow. Red scales also appear behind his ears. “Like this is Pisces?“ ask Sonia.

Leta just smiled in response to Sonia, then Leta stared into the ocean, she seemed to be concentrating. “Hey you, what's your name?“ leta said, he spoke for himself.

Sonia seemed to be very focused on what Leta was doing.

“You don't have a name? All right, I'll give you a name later,“ Leta continued. “You saw my friend? Can you bring it to me? Thank you,“ close Leta, then raise her hand from the water. His appearance slowly returned to its normal form.

“Who are you talking to?” ask Sonia curious.

“Dia,“ Leta said while pointing at a turtle carrying Kin over its shell.

Sonia was excited to see the turtle swimming towards the beach. Arriving at the beach, Sonia dropped Kin's body from the top of the shell, then she walked and squatted in front of the turtle. He looked at the creature with a very happy face, occasionally stroking his head.

“You can give him a name,” says Leta.

“Really?“ reply Sonia hysterical.

“Ya.“

Sonia thought for a moment. Choosing dozens of names that were on his mind and then ‘snaph!‘, Sonia clicked her finger. “Your name, Tony Iommi.“
