Mysterious Encounter

 As Aaron exhaustively made his way out of Orikaeshi Tower he realized hi parents would get mad at him for going this late at night to explore. "Well." he thought. "If they'll get mad at me anyways I might as well take the time to look around the park".  The last time he had ventured through the park was when he was 5 when his now-deceased grandfather took his hand and looked at all the different types of flowers, listing them by name. He still remembered every single plant that his grandfather listed, the tsubaki, the asagao, the sumire, the sakura, he could go on and on and on with the different types.  He got so distracted though, that he didn't look where he was going and got soaked by a spray of water from the fountain in the middle of the park. The fountain was  about as basic as a fountain could be with the exception of the 4 koi of various sizes planted on top, with their mouths spewing water. He never really liked the fountain because it looked like the fish were vomiting up water. He backed away, startled and walked around the fountain he saw a familiar spot. His grandfather had showed him this spot when he was 5 and his grandfather had said it was his safe space whenever something was on his mind.  When he stepped into the garden it was exactly how he remembered it. At first he basked in it's beauty but then his stomach rumbled and he realized that he hadn't eaten in ages. He opened up the sandwich wrapper and began chewing on it. However he noticed rustling in the bushes. A grey fox cub with red markings leaped out from the bushes and began levitating with each of its nine tails slowly appearing one by one. When all nine tails were in view Aaron passed out.
