*Birds chirping*
I still can't believe it's been a week already. It felt as if we've just met yesterday. How time flies. I almost wished it didn't have to end so soon...
すみません。(Sumimasen.) I'm sorry. This past week has been an absolute treasure. Meeting you, spending time with you, and getting to know one another has been... been... とてもきりいです。(Totemo kirei desu.) It’s very beautiful. I wish it would never end.
...Hmmm?
*Giggles*
はい。(Hai) I'll never forget these moments. And I wish you don't as well.
...What's that?
Of course! I'd be honored to walk you to the train station. 列車の駅に行こう。(Ressha no eki ni ikou.) Let’s go to the train station.
*Approaching galloping hoofsteps.*
Oh! Here comes Autumn Blaze. What could the little dear have to say now?
[Autumn Blaze]: Hey Rain Shine! I just heard our new friend was leaving and thought I should come to see them off, with you, if that's okay.
[Rain Shine]: Not at all, Autumn. I think they'd appreciate it.
[Autumn Blaze]: (To you) Hey! Thanks again for visiting our village. It's been a blast to entertain another soul since Applejack and Fluttershy. Also, I just want to say that you have an amazing voice at that karaoke party we were throwing the other day. And between you and me...Rain Shine was really into you.
[Rain Shine] (Flustered) Autumn Blaze!
[Autumn Blaze] Hey! You didn't hear that from me. さよなら。(sayonara.)
*Autumn Blaze laughing and gallops away*
What am I going to do with her? Autumn Blaze is optimistic, sure. But sometimes, she seems to enjoy having some fun at my expense.
…You’re right. She’s just funny, that way. Which is why we love her.
Ahem. Shall we?
*Gentle hoof steps and ambient sounds of the outdoor.*
It's going to be...very quiet in the village, without you. I mean, before Applejack and Fluttershy, the village was always quiet. With the exception being Autumn Blaze.
Still, it was nice to have guests and visitors, now and then. And I’m very thankful to accommodate you as your hostess. It’s not everyday I would entertain guests in my home.
I often have visits from Autumn Blaze and the other kirins, now and then. But…it’s not the same. I see my little kirins almost every day. I took care of them, as I always have. And they’re all a joy for conversations. But sometimes…I…I just wanted to meet new ponies and creatures. Maybe see more of the world, outside of our village.
And then you came and…and…you shine. I’m going to miss that glow of yours.
You have been such a wonderful guest and...And I wish you have a pleasant trip home. I hope to see you again soon.
*Peck
*Giggles*
すみません。(Sumimasen.) Was that too much of a…farewell?
Oh! Your face! It’s turning red. Are you…sick or something? You’re not catching a fever, are you?
Oh, what a relief.
Hmmm? It’s called blushing?
Interesting.
I think it makes you look かわいい。(kawaii) You look cute.
Hmmm? Oh! I’m cute too?
I’m beautiful. Aw! ありがとうございます！(Arigatō gozaimasu!)
What? An angel?
*Laughing wholeheartedly*
Stop it. You’re making me blush!
Oh my, no. I…I could never be as beautiful as an alicorn. I…I don’t know. A kirin with wings… I’ve never heard of such things.
Although, I do remember my mother’s grandmother’s story, about a race of ponies — called longmas — who have mastered fire magic, just as we kirins have. Legend has it that their fires were gifted to them, by the dragons. And their mastery of fire was so great, that they were covered in dragon scales to protect themselves from their blazing inferno.
Yes. It is an inspiring legend. And you know what? When I was a foal, I like to pretend I have wings…
*Whispers to your ears* Made of fire!
*Train whistle blowing in the distance*
Here comes the train…
*Peck*
Oh?! What…you kissed me…why?
To say farewell and…you love me?
*Stammering* Y-Y-You l-l-love me?
*Stuttering and blushing like a schoolgirl*
I-I-I l-l-love you too!
*Clearing her throat and to compose herself*
I mean…I love you too.
*The sound of soft hair brushing, stroking, and giggling, and a deep, passionate kiss*
*Mmmmmmmm-mwah*
Oh! Wow…that was… すごい！(sugoi!) Amazing! I’ve…I’ve never kissed that passionate, before…
*Train whistle sounded louder*
The train will be here soon. I’m afraid this is sayonara, my love.
You will come back? それは素晴らしい! (Sore wa subarashii!) That’s wonderful! I…I can hardly wait!
Hmmm? Ponyville? Oh! You will be writing letters to me, now and then? How lovely! And I will gladly write them back to you.
てがみ を 書いて いる よ~ (Tegami o kaite iru yo~)
*Train comes to a stop. Whistling and letting out steams.*
*Mwah!*
さよなら。(Sayonara.) Have a safe trip home!
*The train pulls away, and Rain Shine turns to walk back to her village*
Oh, Rain Shine. It’s kirin school all over again.
*Giggles*
Even if the stars fall I wanna stare into your eyes.
