Chapter 8: Trajo Berry
'It's probably Kai again,' Nick thought to himself. With how sneaky the little bear was, he wouldn't be surprised if it managed to slip away from Lora and Kavam again and return to have another go at the treasure-filled fridge.
There was another knock after a little while.
Nick sighed and glanced at the tentacle.
"If it's Kai, would you mind chasing him away?" He asked. The tentacle shook its tip and pointed at the door.
Nick raised an eyebrow.
"Does that mean you want me to open the door?" He wondered.
The tentacle nodded. A little curious, Nick gave in and got up.
He opened the door. His eyes widened. He really was in another world.
"Uhh..." he looked at the woman standing below his porch unsure what to say. She had feathers weaved into her hair and poking out of her temples, neck, and forearms. Her features and eyes carried a certain sharpness that gave her an otherworldly air.
Lora and Kavam looked like big humans. The woman in front of him right now looked like someone had sprinkled in a few bird seeds during creation.
"Yes?" He eventually asked when the woman was just staring at him as well. He glanced back to make sure the tentacle stayed behind the doorframe just out of sight.
