DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own blue exorcist/ao no exorcist! (I wish I did…)
It was around ten at night.
"Ame~" The director of True Cross Academy, Mephisto Pheles called from his cluttered office.
As he waited for the fifteen year old girl to come downstairs from the upper level she stayed in, he popped a strawberry lollipop into his mouth.
"Coming!" She called from a small room at the top of the magenta spiraled staircase.
Mephisto needed to have a talk with the girl he had spent part of the past fifteen years raising, at first in secrecy, but then with permission from the order.
Flashback:
As Mephisto was taking a stroll in England after an out of Japan meeting with the order, his demonic ears sensed faint cries a distance away.
It was almost annoying, the way it whined in his ears. It was so bothersome that he just couldn't ignore it. Going off his track, he followed the mysterious crying noise until he saw a basket near the side of a river bed. The basket was the source of noise…so his curiosity led him to go take a look.
Inside the basket, was…a baby? Now what was a baby doing outside, near a river bed, unaccompanied?
The baby continued to let out ear piercing cries, which Mephisto's sensitive demon ears didn't like to handle. He observed the basket the baby was in, bundled in cream colored blankets with a small white pillow to support its head.
The conditions outside were not safe. The sky was patched up in gray clouds, so it looked like a storm was on its way.
Mephisto then noticed a small tag attached to the side of the basket. He picked it up. It read:
This child's parents were killed.
Their place needs to be filled.
If she has been found by a kind heart…
Please become her new start.
So it was a girl? He took a closer look at the crying baby, which proved to be well worth the glance. He saw a small tuft of hair poking out of the side of the blanket. Why was there hair there? Wait a sec… he slightly lifted the cream blanket, which revealed that the tuft of black hair was fur, which had its own appendage. This baby had a tail.
And pointed ears.
Not to mention two fangs already beginning to poke out of her mouth…
Mephisto had no doubt about this. He had just found a demon baby.
Slowly, and carefully, he reached out to the tiny life. His arms slowly made their way into picking her out of the basket. As soon as Mephisto cradled her into his arms, something came falling down from the sky, all at once.
It had begun to rain.
Or, more like storm! He had to find shelter, along with this baby. He took out his pink umbrella which had an ice cream cone handle, and 'magicked' himself out of this place with a snap of his fingers, back to his office branch in Japan.
End of Flashback…
'Ame sure has grown up since then~' Mephisto thought to himself. After all, it was he who raised her. Mephisto gave himself a pat on the back.
"You called?" Ame asked, standing in front of him, wearing pink and blue pajamas.
Kummota Ame, she was named. Her name meant "Cloudy Rain", and she was named this after the storm on the day Mephisto found her fifteen years ago. Said first name, Ame, is significant because it means rain. Rain is what begun to pour down the minute Mephisto had held her.
She had long, wavy, jet black hair that flowed like a river down her back, which slightly curled, ending below her waist. Her bangs were long as well, and brushed to the side. Her eyes were a striking emerald green. She was about two heads shorter than Mephito.
"Ah, yes. I needed to talk to you…" Mephisto said, leaning back in his big purple office chair.
Ame's emerald green eyes blinked with feathery lashes, her face staying the same. She tried not to show any of the worry or doubts she had…because she just hoped she wasn't in trouble or anything.
"Don't worry!" Mephisto smiled , seeing that her eyes had filled with concern. "I just needed to tell you something. Relax, have a seat!"
Ame pulled up a chair and awkwardly sat down in front of his desk. No matter how many years she lived with Mephisto, she could not get used to his unusual atmosphere. They were almost like strangers with one another…except for when they actually spent time together, which was rarely ever.
"Ame, you have recently turned fifteen." Mephisto noted.
Ame continued to stare at him with piercing eyes. She didn't mean any harm, yet her eyes always seemed to be that way.
"Yeah." She smiled. So he actually remembered her birthday! That was enough to make her eyes sparkle. It made her happy.
"You have reached the age where I am finally able to give you this!" Mephisto exclaimed.
Ame shot him a confused glance and raised an eyebrow. Give what? Maybe…a present?
"You sure have grown up!" Mephisto exclaimed once more, ruffling her hair. She squeezed her eyes shut, not sure of what to do.
Once the feeling of his hand left her head, she opened her eyes, and looked up at him. He smirked.
"I have a present for you." He spoke.
Ame still had the same look on her face, not sure whether to smile in gratitude or be worried about what this "present" really was…
He pushed a small black case to her from across the desk. It had a silver close, which to Ame seamed it was waiting to be opened.
"Thank you." She smiled, pulling the small black case closer to herself. Slowly, she lifted the silver close.
Inside the black case were two shining blades, each about half an arm's length.
The blade on the top was a heavenly blue, and shaped like a half moon. The handle was silver.
The blade below it was sheer opposite. It was a demonic red, almost like blood. The blade was straight, not curved like the first one. The handle was black.
Ame looked confused and fascinated all at once, and looked up at Mephisto in wonder. What could these be?
"You know what an exorcist is." Mephisto said, looking her into the eyes.
"Do you mean…?" Ame wondered. She didn't want to get her hopes up too high…but was he seriously going to let her become an exorcist? That's what she had always wanted!
Flashback
"Sir Pheles!" A five year old Ame called, running up to Mephisto.
"What is it?" he asked, smiling and lifting her on to his lap.
"I wanna be an exorcist!" She exclaimed. This caught Mephisto off guard.
"Do you know what that is?" Mephisto asked, suddenly curious.
"They help others and fight demons. I wanna protect people I love." She smiled.
"Would you protect me?" Mephisto asked, smiling.
"Of course!" She replied, hugging him.
"Then when you're old enough, I will let you." Mephisto decided.
"Aww I wanna do it now!" She whined. Mephisto chuckled.
"You are much too young. Now, go play! I have work to do." He said.
"Bye, Sir Pheles!" She waved, running back outside to join the other kids.
End of Flashback…
Ame smiled at that memory from long ago.
"Yes, your exorcist training will begin tomorrow!" Mephisto declared as he stood up, his left arm on his hip and his right arm in the air, pointing at nothing in particular.
"Thank you!" She exclaimed gratefully, gently putting the case down and running up to Mephisto to give him a hug…. something she hadn't done in a while.
"These are the blades that seal your demon power, as you know." Mephisto started.
Ame nodded in agreement. She had always known she was a demon.
"Let me begin by telling you about the first blade…" He said, delicately handling the crescent blue blade by the silver handle.
"Your demon power, Ame, is wind. The first blade is named "Kamikaze" which also means divine wind. This wind, surprisingly, comes from the heavens. Few demons have enough power to reach that far... which is why there are few weapons like this blade is hard to control, I'm warning you. Harder that the second blade."
Mephisto put the heaven's blade down and picked up the opposing weapon.
"This is the second blade. It is called "Akuma-fu", which means demonic wind. It is opposite to the first blade. "Akuma-Fu" is easier to control, but be warned, if you take its power too far, you will awake to your full demon nature." Mephisto explained.
Ame was by far fascinated by how two things could be so different. Yet, these two things were a part of her. .. she had to learn to control her powers. These blades were to become her most prized possessions. She knew at that moment that she would guard these blades with her life, because they were her life.
"Only take these out when needed !" Mephisto warned. "Or you will pay a heavy price."
Ame nodded, understanding every word Mephisto spoke.
"I'm trusting you with this power. Just remember, one blade has demonic power, while the other uses power from heaven! So basically, you can be a killer, or a savior. Balance it out!" Mephisto concluded about the weapons.
"Right." Ame nodded, glancing again at the two blades. Mephisto closed the case.
"Becoming an exorcist is not going to be easy. I expect you work hard!" He stated.
"I promise I will! I'm going to be a great exorcist!" Ame grinned, showing her pointy little teeth.
"This is a good chance for you to become stronger, Ame!" Mephisto grinned.
"That doesn't mean I'm weak or anything!" Ame opposed.
Mephisto smirked.
"Oh really?" He challenged. Ame glared.
"Yes, really!" She replied.
Mephisto took this opportunity to take his left arm, grab Ame, and lift her a good two feet off the ground.
Ame struggled, and then looked Mephisto.
"Well? Try to escape. I know you can't." Mephy grinned.
Try as she might, Ame could not escape. She tried prying his arm off her, but his grip was just too tight, too strong. He continued to show his playful grin, teeth pointy.
"You meant physically stronger? I thought you meant I would become emotionally stronger! Which I am!" Ame growled, still struggling.
She hated how Mephisto had just lifted her up as if she was a feather. Like he had the right to! She was now annoyed.
"But you're just a little munchkin!" Mephisto teased, patting her head with his other arm.
Oh, so now he was making fun of her height? That does it.
Ame tried to kick her legs, which were floating above the ground, violently. Thanks to her non-violent nature, however, they only made out to be mere squirms. He was right. She really did need to become stronger.
Maybe she was just this way because all her power had been sealed away. This tempted her into wanting to take out and use the blades…but she knew she couldn't.
Ame sighed and gave up the struggle.
"Fine, you win." She admitted in defeat. "Now, will you pleaaase put me down?" She pleaded nicely.
Smiling triumphantly, Mephisto let her down.
She took a look at the time. It was already 12:41 A.M, past midnight! She had to get to bed!
"G-Goodnight!" Ame quickly stuttered, running up to her room.
"Goodnight, Princess~" Mephisto called up to her as she slowly closed her door shut.
Ame didn't have time to tell him how she did NOT want to be called that. She had cram school tomorrow, and needed as much rest as possible!
Crashing onto her bed, sleep slowly began to hit her.
Before falling asleep, she thought.
"I'm going to protect the ones I love."
Then, she fell into her sweet dreams.
A new beginning awaited her for tomorrow.
How was it? I would really like to know, so I can improve myself and my writing! So….
