With this I inaugure my drabble corner here on the site . Don't look for plot, nor specific pairings here. It's just a literal drabble dump. Not that I am as prolific as others, but this is more something to say, 'Hey, I'm still alive.'. XD
Some shorts are humorous, some not. Rated T for now, but may go up depending on what I decide to post next. =]
Disclaimer: Don't own anything here. Really.
Running Against Time
Our problem at the moment was only time.
We needed to get to scene fast.
From what we knew till that moment, one or two relics were found in the city.
One of them was being shipped through a chopper to the base.
Along with a little girl.
The other was lost in the sewers.
We could hear the play-by-play of the battle through our comns.
That didn't help any to soothe our worry.
My movement magic can only do so much.
It isn't teleportation.
Teleportation isn't one of the spell I can perform.
That was just the more reason we needed to hurry.
I took us till a place were we could take off.
It was her turn now.
The battle was getting heated above the ocean.
Even the commander of the unit was going there.
I noticed the restlessness in her ever closed face.
Even if she herself didn't.
We informed the central of our position.
Our orders were to assist the other members.
The aces were going to take care of the air.
Our part of the mission was on the ground.
We departed in the direction informed.
A few moments later we hear a loud explosion.
The chopper was shot by a powerful beam of energy.
The restlessness in the face of my pink haired companion is now even more visible.
She looks at the point of the explosion.
I do too.
But from here we can't very much see anything.
She turn her body to direction where we were going before.
She closes her eyes and take a deep breath.
I look at her in confusion.
She takes off, without as much as saying a word.
Worry is growing in my mind.
But I take off after her.
Her hand in griping her sword so strongly that is noticeable.
From my position I can't see her face.
But if I had to bet, I think no one would notice anything in her countenance.
Only those who are close to her.
Her friends.
At that moment we received word from the base.
The chopper was okay.
The Ace of the Aces managed to defend it somehow.
I feel relieved.
So much that I almost collide to a building right in front of me.
At least my magic can be used in these hours.
With a single recite, I pass through it, and come out right behind my companion.
Moments later we see the group we were supposed to help.
They already secured the items.
Despite having lost the culprits, I am glad that the mission was a success.
I look at my side to see her face again.
Relief is written all over her.
I guess the shock off the thought of losing the chopper was enough.
Her blonde lifetime companion was in that one.
Now that everything is over, she says that we didn't get the chance to act.
I believe we had too much emotions in our little adventure, running through the city.
From worry to relief, almost everything passed through our heads and hearts.
This threat have to end soon.
I can't wait to go back to teaching at the Saint Church.
These adventures are good, but they don't compare to the smiles of the children I get to teach.
Well, maybe one thing do compare.
The smile I see on the face of my colleague right now.
A/N: If you didn't figured out yet, it was supposed to be in Sister Schach's POV. This scene happens in all the offscreen time that she and Signum spend to make it to the location of the Forwards during the incident that Vivio was found, midway through StrikerS.
