It's all from Grandma's angle.

Anyway, when Grandpa's part is finished, I'll post it for you.

Have fun reading.

life...

They gave the meaning of this word as follows. That matter, neither I nor anyone else can know.

But for me...

Life is a long game. It's a game with a story of both excitement, fun, happiness and...

Sadness exists from 'that time' until now.

I'm very curious...

That this game is too long?

What will the end of this game be like...?

How can I win this game?

Can you please answer me?...

My crescent moon...

On that day, the day that was the beginning...

I was born from Father Gojo Kuninaga, from care, from determination. From...love

Father gave birth to a crane. Sword of Cranes

A tiny, bright colored crane that looks like the first snow of the season.

On a warm day

Father took me to the house of his teacher, a person named 'Sangjo.' Munechika'Father said he would take me to introduce myself to him.

Father said with a proud smile on his face. The type that is closed no matter how close it is.

“Beautiful, beautiful like a crane in the first winter snow. It's a pure sword...wonderful.”

Lord Sangjo said as he considered 'my body' and then turned to pat my head.

Ah...big hands become rough and wrinkled from heavy use. But it's warm...warm hands similar to Father's....so comfortable.

"Be a good kid. You must be tired of listening to two uncles lecture like this for so long...Hmm?”

I said nothing and lowered my head. Well...even though it's not to the point of being bored. But...if you asked me that, I would probably say I was bored. But if you answer no, it doesn't seem like it either...

“Ugh, are you thinking of the most accurate answer, Tsuru? Interesting, it's not that I'm bored, but I feel free. Until I don't understand...huh Tsuru thinks a lot."

Father said and laughed in his throat. I just looked and smiled in response. Just like that...

Father, it's like he can read my mind every time...but this is good too. Anyway, I don't know how to answer.

“Then why don't you take a walk around this house? Even if there are only trees and a pond."

Lord Sanjo said with a smile and brought me one candy.

"Don't be naughty, and it's better not to get lost. This house is much wider than ours. See you later, Tsuru."

...I'll wait.

Father said goodbye and waved goodbye. At the end of his sentence, he only moved his mouth for me.

This kind of thing...it's certain.

Ah...it's really wide. That looks really mysterious but...this is what's exciting!

Even though I walked to that turn and exited this door...it should have circled around this house, but right now, Here, the colors and decorations look very different. The entire sliding door imprinted with the Munechika family crest also became a crescent moon all over the house... Have I come out of the guest house now...

...has become a lost child.

I turned to look at the side of the house that I had wandered into. It must have been late afternoon, showing that I had been lost, walking around for almost an hour already...I was so hungry.

I didn't eat anything at noon either...I better hurry and find a way back. Father said he'd be home at 3 p.m.

I hurriedly walked along the balcony.

That's it! I believe I should have walked out of that turn just now.

wad!

"Wow!"

What did I crash into? It must have been heavier and bigger than me because right now I was pounding on the ground.

It hurts...it hurts so much. What should I do? I bump into someone... If there's a problem right now, what should I do? What should I do... bad... bad?

"Ah...uh, is...is something wrong?" little child"

The person we had collided with just now bent down on his knees in front of me, who had his head down so that his hair was hiding his leprosy eyes that were filled with tears for various reasons.

"Huh...huh"

I didn't answer, just sobbed a little and shook my head.

"Then why are you crying like this..."

I still shook my head the same way. He used his hand to lift my face up to meet my eyes.

That...moon-crescent...crescent like on the door...so beautiful. Like a crescent moon in the night sky that shines brightly all over the land...

"Ah...it's okay, little one."

I only nodded, but my eyes continued to stare at the crescent moon in that man's eyes, unable to look away.

"Uh...is that something wrong with you staring at me just now?"

"Eyes...moon shaped"

Ah...Did I stare for so long that I suddenly realized it?

The man in front of him suddenly had a troubled expression on his face. Those eyes flashed with uncertainty and fear.

"Strange...right?...I'm afraid that-"

"Nothing! I'm not afraid at all, it's really beautiful...that crescent moon.”

I could only lower my head and hide my face as I suddenly felt so hot that I couldn't see the other person's expression. Just hearing the sound of laughter a little later...

“Your eyes are beautiful, do you know that? The color of the eyes...the color of the diamond, the topaz, so beautiful."

He raised his hand and gently rubbed my head.

Ah...like this again, big warm hands...not very soft but still warm...I really like it.

Touch of life...

I just tilted my head forward and even unconsciously raised my hand to shake the hand of a stranger.

"Do you like it, little one?" Haha"

Ah...again, why is it always like this?

"Hahaha, little child, little child."

Shi! I...

"I have a name! Not a little child!"

“Hahaha, sorry, sorry...so what's your name? Hm...little child."

"Tch! You said you weren't a little kid! My name is Tsurumaru 'Tsurumaru Kuninaga', Grandpa Crescent!"

I shouted and turned away. But suddenly I felt a cold vapor radiating from somewhere... gulp! Goosebumps

“Hahaha, little one sees this, but I'm not that old yet. Tsurumaru..."

I turned my head and saw the source of the icy cold... From now on, don't say those words again if you still love life... I promise.

I only had my cheeks stretched... but my hands were so heavy, my cheeks would have already turned red from your hands.

"Oh...cool. Flirting, Eeb...nah (let it go) Let go, it hurts)"

"Haha, let go, let go."

After he released his hand, I quickly rubbed my cheek back and forth as if it made the pain less so...

“Then why have you come here? Aren't you supposed to be staying with Lord Kuninaka at the guest house, Tsurumaru?"

“Call me Tsuru, that's all...um. I think I might be...lost..."

I bowed my head and clenched my fists. I knew that my eyes would soon be filled with tears again.

What does it look like?

...pitiful

...sexually attractive

...amusing or what?

"Oh, it's okay. Don't cry. I'll take you back, little Tsuru."

He held out his hand in front of me, inviting me to walk hand in hand.

"Eh, why?"

But I shook my head and grabbed my leg.

No...I don't want to walk and my legs hurt. I'm hungry too...

“Does your leg hurt? Is something wrong? Can I have a look at it please?"

He acted like he was going to grab my leg. Until he was shocked, he immediately pulled it back. His eyes flashed with shock and confusion and he looked away.

"It's okay. Don't think too much. It doesn't hurt."

He spoke in a comforting way, then lifted up the hem of my cloth and began to caress and caress me.

I used to think that because I was still young, my legs looked so small that he could easily wrap them around my ankles. The pale color of my skin contrasted with the dark blue cuffs of his shirt. That again Why don't I look like a man like this?

"I thought the fall earlier was too strong for you. It looks like your ankle might hurt now because it sprained your ankle..."

He picked up his ankle and looked at it... more like an older brother taking care of his younger brother or a grandfather and grandchild...

“Alright, I'll carry you myself. Little Truru...come here."

He made a gesture of 'get on the back, come here' like that.

I tried to get up for a while, even though I was staggering a bit, but I was able to reach his back easily because he moved closer so that I didn't have to walk too much and gently lifted me onto his back.

"Oh, huh!"

He rose to his full height from the ground.

So tall...awesome! My eyes are shining now. The excitement is higher than when I was on Father's back.

"wow! Haha, so tall! Wow haha"

I laughed, enjoying the heights I had never experienced before.

"Haha, you look like you're having fun."

He laughed with a smile that sent me into a state of excitement.

"Um! It's going to be so exciting!"

I answered him with a smile and then leaned my face against the back of the person in front of me.

It's a big back. and so wide that it completely covered me. It's warm but not soft at all because it's full of muscles that have been trained for a long time...

But I was able to sleep comfortably even though it was probably so hard I couldn't really sleep...

It also gives a feeling...

It's like being protected from all suffering...

Loneliness...

The cold...

pain...

Even though I may be thinking about it myself...even though I'm being too selfish...

but

So is it wrong that I am like this...me? Ignoring it, that's enough...with this little white crane...

I want to stay like this for a long time.

feel good...

Astonishingly Ah...I can't think of a reason anymore.

I closed my eyes and fell into a deep sleep without realizing it, but when I opened my eyes I found that I was already in my room at the house...

After that day, I officially got to know him. The name of that crescent was 'Mikazuki.'

Munechika, the crescent moon sword of Lord Sanjo. Munechika and later on we became close because we often played games that we had together while practicing swordsmanship. They also went to and from Munechika's house as if they were joking.

...It's a happy time.

But as people have said.

...Happiness often doesn't last.

...If you meet, there will be goodbyes.

One day Father called me in to see the meaning of this.

I have been handed over to my first new master in a short while. The new master's name is 'Lord Adachi Sadayasu'.

At the time I was completely confused.

...I just don't want to accept the fact that I have to leave. Keep away important people

And then...

I ran away after Father told me about this. I hid because I thought that if I hid, If they can't find me, I don't have to go any further.

I ran... ran and ran, finally taking refuge in a large storage room at the back of the crescent house 'Mikazuki's house' where I got lost that time.

I could only sit and stare out the ventilation window absentmindedly, contemplating my feelings...

At that time, I felt hurt, thinking that they would get bored with me and give me to someone else, even though in the past they had always said that I was Father's Priceless Treasure He is a close friend of both houses... an important person to Mikazuki.

At that moment, I heard footsteps passing by from time to time. I assumed that Father had ordered me to be found.

...without knowing that a person came in after that.

"...Tsuru"

I recognized whose voice it was and immediately turned to look.

“Why did you escape like this? Tsuru...let Lord Gojo search everywhere, hmm?"

He is the crescent with whom I am very close.

Mikazuki asked softly.

"I have to go..."

I lowered my head to answer the question.

"...go? Where are you going, Tsuru?"

"Go...to a very distant place."

I raised my head to meet his eyes.

His face looked serious, his eyebrows almost touching each other as he asked the next question.

“With who, Tsuru? And for what reason?"

"...with Lord Adachi With the first boss..."

Mikazuki's eyes widened and he asked in a trembling voice.

"When? Isn't it too soon?"

“Father has already made up his mind. I have to go in a few hours from now.”

I answered and smiled slightly. But my body trembled non-stop, as if repressing it.

At least he might feel the same as I do.

...Lonely and scared to the point of not daring to say goodbye.

Even though I should have told him with a smile in the past, this time it was different.

...I smile through the tears that flow.

I don't know what my face or eyes were like this time. My body embraced the body that was trembling at first as my own and secretly looked at the crescent moon beside me.

...I saw a moment before Mikazuki fled through that window...his face looked angry but his eyes were sad.

While I was in a trance, the embrace of someone next to me suddenly fell on me. I was lifted up and sat on his lap.

...I don't know...why the tears that were flowing just now suddenly stopped flowing.

...feeling protected

Same feeling That no matter what time I still like...love this touch.

“Tsuru, I...I have a game to play with you. The same game, but more difficult than before."

"Game...OK, I'll play...even though it might be the last game I play with you."

I lifted my head from his chest and smiled softly. Then he wiped away the tears but had to stop...

“Don't wipe like that. My eyes are all red."

Mikazuki used his fingertips to gently spread the tears away.

"Shall we play catch, Tsuru?"

"Catching...when? Now I only have a short time left. Just east beyond the ridge, that's it...just a moment."

Mikazuki laughed deep in his throat.

"Not at this time...in this time, I will ask for a promise."

"...contract?"

“Promise me that I will come after you no matter how long...decades pass. How many hundreds or thousands of years from now will it be? I promise you my white crane.”

At that time, I couldn't say anything, but stood still and looked into his eyes as if to reiterate my promise, and I received a nod and a gentle pat on the head. My eyes shone again...with happiness. Hurry and hug the person in front of you...in the end, tears will flow again.

"Mi-Mikazuki...ugh...I'll search for you too-ugh...until I...disappear...I promise."

"I can't, Tsuru..."

“You are a beautiful princess. As for me, I will be the loyal prince who will find the princess...the holder of this prince's heart...do you know that, princess?”

I looked up and looked into eyes that were full of confidence but were also hidden with a hint of playfulness and cunning.

"Tch! Why do I have to be a princess? Just wait and see, I'll find you first and then I'll be a prince!”

"Haha, I'll be waiting, my lady."

"This one is-haha."

I burst out laughing.

“Finally you smiled. Did you know that your smile is very beautiful, Tsuru?"

Mikazuki leaned forward and kissed my forehead.

At this time, all I could do was remember this feeling and continue laughing...

We will definitely meet again...I promise. Beautiful crescent moon

And the next morning I apologized to Father and bid farewell to my family.

All around me was stained with a crimson sky that would have been beautiful before, but now it was... terrifying and sad. On this shattered ground, there were many bodies strewn all over the area. The smell of blood permeated the air until it was disgusting.

...It's a battlefield. A futile battlefield, all that is gained is the enjoyment of the victor. It's not worth the many lives lost.

...human greed

...really terrifying

'That's right, Tsuru... humans, no 'all' people, can't be trusted. Only I will be by your side. I am with you all the time.'

This voice again... has been popping up in my mind ever since my second family left.

The evening scenery of the battlefield transformed into a crimson sky and a dark night, but the thing that stood out in the darkness was a crescent moon.

...as in his eyes

...Beautiful and noble Too much to reach for

Even so...

This crane was very greedy and wanted to grab the crescent moon.

...Mikazuki, I have a sentence that I've wanted to say for a long time... I can only remember the same sentence as your smiling face...

'It was so much fun, let's play again!'

'Um, okay...Tsuru, let's play together again, hahaha'

Ah...I miss you so much...want to hear it again. I really want to see it one more time...Mikazuki

What will you be like now?

This game of catching has gone on for so long.

Are you still playing it now?

or myself Did I just imagine this whole time... that you were still playing this game with me...

I... didn't just play by myself, right?

...Do I have to try harder?

'That's enough, Tsuru...you've been hurt enough.'

Again...who are you?

'I am you'

What...

'I am your other self'

Since when...

'I have always been with you. Even before that Crescent Man'

Why...did it suddenly come out like this?

'You, no, your mind probably can't handle it right now.'

How do you know...

'Because I am you...Isn't it tiring to have to chase after him?...Is it painful to have to do it alone all the time...Is it disheartening that no matter how hard I try, I can't succeed?' ...Aren't you angry at yourself for being powerless-'

Enough! No more!

'...I'm sorry I may have spoken too harshly, but that's enough for now.'

'Sleep well, child. From now on, it's my duty... okay, Tsuru?'

This voice, this entity, I'm going to try to believe it just once... will I be able to?

um...

'Good night...my white crane'

Everything is blind, the last image seen is The crescent moon turned blood red...

...Mikazuki

'...ru'

'...Tsuru'

'Tsurumaru!'

heavily!

What!...Who! This voice!...Mikazuki

Ah...no, how is that possible...how can he stay here? Tsuru...that's really stupid.

So cold...

Pain all over the body...

Where am I?

The surroundings were completely dark, but in the darkness there was light emanating.

I hurriedly began to step towards the light until I could see it clearly. The sight in front of me made me stop breathing...

That's Mikazuki! Is he really...

I reached out my hand to make sure...to confirm that the person in front of me wasn't just a dream or an illusion from the past...but I could only feel that there was an invisible wall blocking it.

My head is completely white now, there are many feelings mixed together, but the most clear thing is that I am finally happy. We finally found each other...but even though it was like that, the tears flowed down our cheeks in streams. Even the throat that tried to raise our voice became dry and soundless. Crying without a sound, not even a sob...

In the end, I couldn't do anything except look at the face that I missed so much...that's right, just look. Only because if you touch it you will only feel the coolness of this transparent wall.

Why?

Because right now I am only a soul in a single body... I am both happy to have found it, but also painful because I can only look, unable to say the words I have been holding back for so long.

...I miss you so much.

...You're late!

...love

My legs felt weak and I finally sat down, staring blankly at the scene in front of me.

Just now he called me and I looked at him fighting with someone.

Surrounding is a meadow where the grass grows up to your knees. In the evening the atmosphere makes it look golden. It would have been more beautiful if there weren't blood stains on the grass, staining the redwood field.

He had scars all over his body that he was afraid would burst soon.

What happened?...This is a black crane.

'No...there's no reason.'

I don't believe it!

'No, believe me, I'm learning-'

No!...You yourself are really injured, aren't you?

'Ah...still as gentle as ever, hehe.'

'But because I'm gentle, it hurts. Because I care, it hurts...or are we going to deny it?'

'What? Can't you speak at all?'

No, I won't reject your idea, not at all...

'That's it, you know-'

Because you are me, Black Crane.

Stop...stop fooling yourself. You know exactly what I think...right?

'No...no, I won't give in!'

The black crane screamed for the first time since we had known each other. He was usually a cool and gentle person, but The person who made him like this was me.

He lowered his head, his body trembling non-stop.

...He's holding back.

but...

Am I the one who caused this and just looked at it?

At this time, I'm not interested in anything except the image of the person in front of me...Mikazuki.

I know it's not good to ignore the black crane in front of me, but my mind is completely opposite...

'Go...'

'Want-want to meet that crescent person, don't you?...Go.'

Eh?...but

'It's okay...I'm fine. Don't worry...it just takes time.'

...black crane

I saw, no matter how dark the surroundings were, those blood-red eyes and that faint smile... that seemed overflowing with sadness. No matter how hard he tried to suppress his trembling voice, I still knew it... because of me, it was like that.

Thank you...we will definitely meet again soon.

'Um...see you again, for sure.'

I haven't heard much of that last sentence, but It's okay.

I hugged him gently as a goodbye.

See you again...Black Crane

I feel the warmth around me. Embrace...a very considerate feeling

...Mikazuki

The shell is so heavy But because I thought that if I opened my eyes and found that I was only dreaming, it made me so afraid that it would be difficult to open my eyes...

A gentle touch on the forehead that I remember well.

"Tsurumaru, it's me, Mikazuki, do you remember me?"

Ah...this sound is really right.

“Mi...Kazuki...of course. Remember, I'll never forget you."

...There will never be a day and there will be no way.

My tears welled up again and we both embraced each other for a long time, letting out tears of joy like that.

"I love you. White Crane Princess"

A soft whisper in the ear It reverberated throughout my ears. My heart sings like a great drum. A feeling filled my little heart...the promise from that time.

...Finally, I understand that my 'love at first sight' from the time we met until today will never be forgotten.

"I love you too. Beautiful Prince of the Crescent Moon"

We kissed each other in the setting sun that evening.

...FIN...

Finally finished This is all finished as promised.

Keto_DK

A short story that the writer came up with while he was free listening to children read books about Thai games. If he came up with it, he bragged to his friends, as the title suggests.

Yes, as expected, there should be another part that belongs to Grandpa. From what I've read in the story, I think there might be a question: How did Grandma Dam meet Grandpa? Or how did Grandpa appear?

Many of the questions mentioned above will be answered in the Grandpa part. It will probably take a long time, but when it's finished I'll post it (in another fic called Game of the Crescent Well, that's about it. If completed, I will inform you again.)

P.S. Where is the mistake in the word or do you think it seems strange lately?

Or does it give you a cut-off feeling or not? You can tell me.

P.S. 2 There is a project that there might be a black apartment as well.

If you want me to do it, please leave a comment.

..with respect..
