[Hikaru's pov]
A sudden jolt under his ribcage followed by a heavy pain made his body felt weak. He clenched his shirt while trying to regulate his breathing which shorten each passing second. He felt to the ground, smashing his knees to the floor in the process. The boy groaned in pain. His eyes slowly turned towards the direction of the door, hoping for someone to come in and helped him to call for the doctor. Nonetheless, no one came. He felt so hopeless as his body refused to move like the way he wanted. Tears streaming down his face like waterfall as his body was turning cold.
He did not want to die like this. Not when he was alone. His mother's exhausted face came to his mind. He froze.
<Ah...>
<I guess, it's okay...>
A smile bloomed from his lips as the world around him slowly faded to black.
He didn't know for how long he was lying there. When he came to, a soft smell similar to baby powder invaded his nostrils. Underneath him, he can feel a gentle, velvety and fluffy surface as if he was lying on a soft and fluffy carpet.
The teenager rubbed the soft surface underneath his body before carefully opening his eyes. A bright, vast blue and white scenery appeared before him, forcing him to squint his dark eyes in order to block the light that was attacking his eyeballs.
‘What was that?’ he thought.
What he remembered was that he fell unconscious inside his ward in the hospital. So, how can he now woke up outdoors? He felt his knees throbbing in pain and remembered that he fell on his knees back then. Grunting, he forced himself to rise up while his right hand gently rubbing his right knee.
Gasp!
The boy’s eyes were wide opened. The scenery that was laid upon his eyes shocked him and all the blood was drained from his face. He was in the middle of a large lake!
Also, what was much more surprising, he was sitting on a huge palatinate blue flower which was bigger than him. The flower looked like a bunch of blue velvet laces bundled together to create a large, puffy flower.
While he was flabbergasted by the situation he was in, Hikaru's hand suddenly slipped from the flower petals before his body fell into the body of water.
He gasped for air while flapping his hands around, desperately trying to make his body stayed afloat. Unfortunately, he had no experience being in that huge amount of water. In a few seconds, Hikaru's body sank down as if he was swallowed into the lake.
In panic, he unconsciously drank a lot of the lake water while struggling to bring himself up to the surface. Before passing out, Hikaru saw a bright light shining from the water surface. A silhouette of a man was coming close to him, and quickly grabbed his waist before pulling him back towards the the air above the water. The warmth from the part they were connected surprisingly calmed him down. His consciousness was gradually fading away before he even reach the surface.
•°•°•☆•°•°•
Hikaru was jolted up from his unconsciousness and coughed out all the water from his lungs. It was burning him inside out, driving tears and snot out of his eyes and nose. He felt gentle pats on his back while he vomited water out from his system. The touches were calming enough for him that it helped him breathed more easily. Also, Hikaru could smell a faint scent of honeydew coming from the guy. It helped him to calm down.
He tried to comb his wet and droopy bangs with his fingers, but he was surprised when his hands accidentally touched a pair of hard and pointy, yet small and sleek, thing on his head. It wasn't there before.
‘...could... it be taken off?’ he thought as he pulled and wiggled away the thing, but it wouldn't budge. It kind of hurts a little bit. Hikaru turned even paler.
“Are you okay?” asked his saviour.
“W-wait!” said Hikaru before he quickly crawled towards the edge of the water.
The poor teenager saw a faint image of him with a pair of shiny black horns on top of his forehead, near his hairlines. His eyes gradually widened when the sudden information hit his brain.
“No way!” His voice was shaky, so did his body.
Hikaru swiftly turned his whole body towards his saviour, but he was surprised with the beauty of the guy. What kind of sorcery was that?!
Hikaru was bewitched by the pretty face in front of him. That man had beautiful blueish silver hair which was slicked back when the man get out of the water, revealing his smooth forehead. His eyes was the colour of sapphire, glistening under the sunlight. His nose was high, straight and sharp, while his pink, full lips was glistening wet from the lake water that was running down his face.
If Hikaru was a girl, he would've fall for that guy. Hikaru had to remind himself again and again that he was straight. His eyes moved down to the guy's body. The wet clothing was stuck on the pretty guy's well-toned body, allowing Hikaru to analyse the bulges and dents all over his enviable body.
Hikaru pouted. If only he wasn't so sickly, he would've build some muscles too. His body was skinny and lack of muscles and fat. It was the very definition of a sick person.
The guy's ears caught Hikaru's attention. It was pointy! Not as much as elves, but it was weird. He never met someone with pointy ears before. Then he noticed a wet fluffy tail from behind the guy. The tail even moved around!
Oh! My! God!
<Is that real?>
What an irresistible temptation! It was swaying back and forth as if it was tempting the fluff lover Hikaru to touch it. Hikaru gulped down his saliva as to not wanting someone to see him with a drool on his face.
“I'm Hyde. What's your-" Hyde yelped when Hikaru fiercely grabbed at his tail without warning.
Hyde's face was turning into a dark shade of red and his eyes started to become glassy with tears. Hikaru was in a bliss. He could feel the warmth emitted from the wet and bushy tail, and that made him happily rubbed his face against the tail. How nice would it feels if the bushy tail was dry and puffed to the max?!
“U-um... Excuse.. me...” Hyde poked Hikaru's shoulder continuously until Hikaru was out of his daydream and looked at him.
“Yes?” Hikaru asked innocently. Only then he realized that he was doing a very rude thing to the blushing guy. “I- I am so sorry! I just- I just love fluffy things so very much that I went crazy for a moment and did very rude things to you!”
Hyde cleared his throat twice and stared at Hikaru with a serious face.
“You should know that you should not touch an Uruz's tail! If it were someone else, you will be in a big trouble, you know?” Hyde told Hikaru off with a stern voice. Stern, but didn't look like he was angry.
Hikaru frowned. “Uruz?”
“Yeah. Why?” Hyde asked.
Hikaru scratched his nose and contemplated on whether to tell the guy in front of him about his odd circumstances. He was pretty sure it wasn't the world he was previously lived in. The 16 years old boy glanced around and sighed when he was so sure that this world really was an unfamiliar world.
<I mean... obviously...>
He hesitantly told Hyde that he was not from this world and he had no idea how he ended up here. At first, Hyde looked like he was not buying it, but after a few minutes trying to explain things, Hyde started to look like he believed him. At least, that was what Hikaru wanted to believe based on Hyde's reactions. It wasn't like Hikaru could proof his words with the weird horns that probably made him similar to this world's inhabitants.
All of a sudden, Hyde stood up and held out his hand towards Hikaru.
“First thing first, let us go get you some clothes to change into-"
GRUUー
Both of them was surprised with how loud Hikaru's tummy was begging to be filled. Hikaru covered his face in embarrassment. Hyde chuckled.
“-and we should find you something to eat.”
Hikaru nodded in agreement. He didn't have a choice if he didn't want to spend a night in this forest. It wasn't like he had money to spare if he were to be all by himself.
•°•°•☆•°•°•
They passed by an enormous and thick gate made of black iron after Hyde went to talk with the guards. Hikaru couldn't stop his eyes from wandering around with curiosity and amazement. Hyde helped Hikaru's closed his mouth by pushing his jaw close with his big hand before any bugs flew inside Hikaru's mouth.
Along the way to Hyde's house, they passed a certain area that looked like the marketplace. There were lots of interesting stuffs they were selling which made Hikaru's eyes and feet automatically wandered around. Before he realized, Hyde was already holding his hand to prevent him from getting lost in the crowds.
Hyde asked Hikaru about Earth, like how many countries were there, how were the people, how were the technologies and stuff. Hikaru informed him with the little knowledge he gained from the various books he read while he was warded. He rarely got to surf the internet or spent time outside of the hospital he was practically living in. Therefore, his information was kind of limited compared to the others who were living outside of the hospital.
As an exchange, Hyde told Hikaru about this world, Avalleon. This world had 5 continents and 13 main countries, which were ruling a certain number of small countries. The country they were currently at was named as The Kingdom of Astradan. This country was not under any main countries when they gained their independence after the big war more than 50 years ago. That war created an alliance between the three bigger country in this continent, including Astradan, allowing them to bring down their tyrannical main country and divided three equal parts of the continent amongst themselves.
Hikaru was also told that black hair and eyes were rare for the people in Avalleon. Well, that explained the stares that he received from most of the people there. Plus, the people there had European faces and no one he saw had Asian face like him.
Hikaru observed the citizens around him one by one. Weird. There was no women, or girls... No females in general. The obvious differences between the citizens' body type was the androgynous and small body type with all kinds of horns like Hikaru, and another type was the larger, buff and masculine body type like Hyde (plus the tails). However, no matter how he looked at them, they were all males.
“Where were all the girls?” Hikaru asked while his vision was busily scanning his surroundings.
“Girls?“ Hyde asked with confusion in his face.
“Women, females... the ones with bigger breast and wider hips than us, higher and softer voice pitch and was the one with the role as a mother?”
“Ah...” Hyde nodded. “There was two genders here, Fehu-" Hyde pointed at Hikaru. “-and Uruz.” Hyde then pointed at himself. “Fehu is the one giving birth and Uruz was the father.”
Wait. What?!
Hyde told Hikaru that Fehu's characteristics were that they had rounded ears and horns. When they reach the age of 15, a flower mark bloomed on either side of their neck, as the sign that they were ready to be impregnated. The legal age in Avalleon was 15, by the way. Hyde was surprised to learn that Hikaru was already 16 because he didn't have any flower mark on his neck. Maybe because he was previously from another world.
Hikaru found it weird that his body had changed into the likes of the people in Avalleon, such as having horns like Fehus. He didn't want to believe it, but there was a possibility that his body had already changed even in the inside [i.e. having an ovary]. He shivered at the thought of it. Thank goodness his junior was still there in place.
Hyde asked him again about females. It seemed like he had a little curiosity about them. Hikaru told him that females have protruding chest that contains mammary glands for breastfeeding, and devoid of the ‘juniors' that they both had. Hikaru could hear Hyde gasped in shock while covering his lower half.
“Don't worry. We didn't purposely cut them off for the girls,” assured Hikaru.
Hyde told Hikaru about how Fehu was rare and there was a ratio of 1:4 between Fehu and Uruz. The whole world made a rule for Fehu to marry 4 Uruz in order to sustain human populations in the world. Over the years, the human populations had gone down, so the rule was to help increasing the human population.
"Haha..." Hikaru laughed nervously. That was crazy! So the people there had no choice but to dedicate their life as a baby machine?
Somehow, Hikaru could imagine the girls, which were his friends, in his old world will surely rejoiced if they knew that this kind of fantasy BL world existed. He remembered the 'happy' (notice the sarcasm) yet scary times when he was forced- I mean, encouraged by the girls to read BL manga and light novels. It was unexpectedly fun and interesting, only if it remained in the fiction world.
A shiver ran down his spine when he imagined the straight him had to have sex with a guy, (let alone 4 guys!) and had to give birth to children. Where do even these children had to come out from?!!
