the first meeting(zues and echo)

"You're asking too many questions...It's annoying..." I replied.

"well, I guess the guy that is hypotheticly wondering should stop then."

I just shook my head, noticing that I had nearly run into the door of the store. I went inside and started to get groceries, trying my best to ignore all the people.

"Well, if this guy was also a death god, would that change anything? And I know I ask to many questions."

"That would definitely change things. Cuz that's kinda creepy."

"Well, why does it have to be creepy?"

"It's the theory of it I suppose..."

"The theroy of being liked by a god? I dont see a down side there."

"It's more of the death part I think....Either way. I don't like the idea."

"well, I guess the hypothetical guy will jsut have to deal." I cursed myself. The girl; didnt understand at all. Of course, I would get the thick headed one

"I'm not an idiot you know. I know who the hypothetical guy is. Especially seeing as I only know one death god. Sorry by the way..."

"oh, well, so.....This is akward."

"Yeah...I'm just gonna go buy my food now..."

I floated out to the front of the store, to wait ofr her to come out. when she did, I tried to fix what i said. "What I said, well...It was all hypothetical. You know, in the what if chance sorta thing"

"Right," I said, distractedly. I was more concerned on eating my pocky than listening at the moment. It was chocolate flavored and oh so good.

I looked at the little sticks she was eating. I wondered what the facination was. I took a stick, and bit the end off. It was not that bad. The brown part was rather salty, and the dark stuff was bitter-sweet. IT was really good. "What are these Echo? And what is your real name. I know Echo isnt it, so what is it?"

"That's pocky. And why do you want to know?"

Well, another human food to keep me occupied. "Well, I am just curious. And wondering if your parents really were stupid enough to name you that, before sending you to Wammy. Thats all"

"It's Hadyn," I said, hesitating just a little. "You get the whole Wammy's nickname thing though right?"

"Yeah, in case one of you have to take the decetive thing up. To protect yourselfs. I dont plan on telling anyone."

"Thanks, though I don't know who you would tell in the first place..." I replied.

'True enough." I Thought about that for awhile. "is that why you toldme, cause I cant tell anyone? Anyone human anyways."

"No I don't think it is. I don't really know why. Maybe it's just because I've never told anyone my name, and that it would be nice if someone knew. Not even my friends from Wammy's -none of whom I've seen in years- know it."

"well, its good to have soemone that knows you, even if it is only the death god that is haunting you. ITs good to open up."

"Is it really haunting? I figured it was more like hanging around to annoy the hell outta me," I said almost laughing.
