I huddled over to the window in my dark navy room. The two stood against each other and took 5 paces before turning. They both held out an umbrella possessed with a cat's demon, and waited for the first move. This was all clear to see from my room.

The opponents. Dell Rachura, the leader of the resistance. Rachel Alucard, the tyrant. Location: Order Ruins in the sky. Time, 9 pm Weather, Rain and 60% overcast.

The first drop of rain fell, and the two of them charged at one another. Rachel and Dell were aware of each others tactics before the fight, so most of their moves were dodging and evading as the umbrellas were swung violently. Rachel made contact, uppercutting Dell with the umbrella. She was countered with a powerful electrical shock from the fingertips of his white gloves. Dell looked good. Then the obvious happened, something that happened to everyone who faced her,

BANG! BANG! BANG! RATTLE! SLICE! BAM!

3 bullets from a pistol, a round of bullets fired from a machine gun, a smack in the air by Rachel Alucard and an arrow through his heart. For people like me, I was devastated to watch the blood spew from his neck, his mouth and his chest. Rachel laughed as she took his life away and sucked out the rest of his blood.

All it meant now that I should hold a pillow over my knife tonight. Again.

"Laura, Laura! Get away from that window!" My brother exclaimed. I turned to him as he looked at me through the grimy room behind him.

"Coming Fuji." I replied. I shut my blinds and stashed my knife cautiously. Too fast, and Rachel would find us. Fuji flipped a switch in the doorway, and the room transformed. It was once a dark and grimy storage closet with windows and bedrooms, but whenever he lipped the switch, it transformed into a 5 star hotel room (just this one room) with a red carpet, white carpeted flooring and double spiral staircase. A chandelier with black iron and glass detail hung over the middle of the room, which open up into a living area and a kitchen.

I liked it when Fuji transformed the room into something as beautiful as this. I*t was too bad that we only had enough power a month to keep the room like this for 20 minutes. It also showed no physical change outside the room, so Rachel would never realize the room changed unless the door was left open or she broke in while the room was on.

While he tweaked with the settings of the room to try and take out some of the power use, I would go shopping or explore the new tyrannical warfare filled world of Rachel Alucard. As Rachura was taken away to the graves of her enemies, I hoped that one day an Idealnome like Fuji and I with expert skill and strategy would end this conflict.

But, I guess that was a lot to hope for.

Fuji had me set the table for dinner, we spent the rest of the rooms time eating and talking before we shut it off for bed.


I had a weird dream. It wasn't some weird thing where like Ke$ha walks in and gives you money. No, this was a premenission dream, I could tell just by the way it happened on the inside of my inner thoughts. For the first time in a long while, I admired my appearance. My white dress with golden trim, and my black hair slung over my eye, hiding the scar over my small green eyes.

I was walking alone inside of a steel factory where a woman in a white ballroom gown, watched me suffer through a number of obstacles that were layed down in front of me. She wasn't an Idealnome, but at the same time she fought as if he were one. I'd say she was closely related to Ragna, with that dirty little smirk of hers as she stared with pale eyes into my suffering.

In front of saws, moving logs and all sorts of crazy looking obstacles, Fuji in his large red kimono jump suit was staring at me deeply. He was yelling and shouting at me to hurry, that danger was just around the corner and I was about to be doomed by something. I walked in that dream, with the illusion that I was running. Fuji shook a necklace that jingled around his neck furiously, screaming louder to him, but softer and softer to me. It was like a whisper that was running away from me, so far away and only getting farther.

In the moment, a black chord made of a steel nylon fabric shot out of the ground, and my brother faded away into the darkness of the dream. I reached the end of the obstacles when the woman who was eyeing me stood before me tauntingly. I didn't even see her move, it was as if she ran in a millisecond to my precise location. My body started getting crystal stiff out of nowhere. The woman had blonde hair in a bob long pattern, growing longer and into the floor. The deeper it got in, the more stiff I became. My body shrank to the point where I could see Fuji in a less than impressive state. He and I were wooden dolls propped on a marionette chord.

Immediately, as if it weren't fast enough, I woke up. I promised myself one thing. Fuji can never find out about this dream. He would worry far too much that we should get out of town or prevent this timeline by doing something really-

Hey, wait just one pish-poshing moment. Where am I? I wasn't in my room anymore! I was behind steel bard colder than my room.

Fuji!? Fuji where are you?! Suddenly, I feel really scared and I don't know why. Was I kidnapped by an Idealnome, now that half of them are employed by Rachel Alucard? Was I being held prisoner by the Ordegion government? Did someone at the fruit stand finally figure out I stole an apple from them when they weren't looking?

The room shook, and the bars opened. Whoever kept me in here was about to meet me face to face.
