“We’ll see?” Rin pumped into her. “No, you’ll see, master. You will see as well as the world.”

I came back to my body and trembled so hard the cot creaked. "What the fuck?"

Yoichi got to his feet. "Did you see something else?"

"Yes."

"What?"

I whispered. "Rin and Deja were having sex."

"Oh." He blinked. “Well. . .”

Deja was still walking toward me, and only halfway across the room. Thank God because I needed a goddamn minute before she got here.

“Well that at least gives us more information.” Yoichi lowered back into his seat. “I thought you would need to touch the person or object to see a vision. Perhaps, you only need to focus on it in some way.”

I trembled. “But are these visions happening? Like okay. . .the doctor confirmed it.”

“And we can assume Reo does pray to his pin.”

“Or maybe my mind created that.”

“No. I think it happens.”

“And Rin and Deja having sex the way I saw it.”

“Let’s ask.”

“I don’t know about that. Deja keeps shit close to the chest.” I turned my head and studied him.

And made my second mistake.

I looked at Yoichi.

The basement disappeared again.

A forest rose. Sunlight spilled through tall pines in pale green columns. The smell of pine resin and damp earth filled my nostrils.

A woman stood in a clearing in robes of layered silk, deep red over white. Her black hair was pinned with an ivory comb. Her face was painted white with red along her lips.

A massive fox sat in front of the woman, yet towered over her. It must have been a good ten feet tall with coiled muscle under the orange fur. There were these gold squiggly lines over the fox’s eyes, which were gold too.

Two long bushy white tails fanned behind the creature.

The woman inched away. “Turn back. It scares me when you take that form.”

The fox growled and then stood up on its huge back legs.

The creature’s whole body rippled. Then, the fur turned to skin. The limbs lengthened and then shortened. The face stretched and reformed.

Long black hair fell down a bare back.

A man stood where the fox had been.

I shrieked, and he turned my way.

Yoichi.
