Chapter 2: Ad Libitum
It was a beautiful and wondrous morning. The sun shone it's majestic glow into the world. Birds sang their melodious tune. Morning dew coated the greenery. The morning breeze entering the lone room. It was just a simple room; It has two doors. One leading to the bathroom, and one leading to the hallway. A simple dresser made of oak, a work table and a chair near the open window. A simple bed with crème white sheets, and a lamp and nightstand next to it.
On the said bed, a person laid. The rise and fall of a persons breathing says that they are asleep. A sword leaned on the night stand. The person began to stir, then slowly opened their eyes. Deep blue. Still groggily , said person looked around her surroundings. After a minute or two she slowly sat up. Aqua blue hair in a mess.
The female took one more time to observe before she dangled her legs at the edge of the bed and stood. But her legs wobbled and found herself sitting on the bed once more. But the girl tried again, and this time successful.
Slowly taking one foot in front of the other she made her way to the bedroom door. Quite amusing to see though the person were taking baby steps again. Turning the knob the girl opened the door and peaked in the hallway. It was quiet so she opened it wider.
She looked both ways, confused on where to go. But then heard murmurs of voices down the left hallway. When he followed the voices, it lead her to a staircase where the voices became more audible. Holding the rails she started to descend slowly, making sure not to slip and fall. The voices grew more and more louder with each descent.
When finally at the ground floor she didn't expect a flying white cat appeared out of nowhere and right in front of her face. "Yay! You're awake!"
The bluenette jumped, startled and gave an 'eep' sound before hiding herself immediately under the lounge coffee table. Certainly the noise were not unheard.
"Hey, what's with all the racket?", said a boy who's hair was silvery-white and had soft blue eyes.
"Mormo, what did you do now?", said a pink haired girl.
"I didn't do anything, Konnono! I swear! The girl we found freaked out then hid under the coffee table!" Mormo said in his defense quite animatedly.
"Girl? You mean she's awake?", Konnono steeped out to see for herself. True enough. The blunette was under the table. Her hands covering her eyes.
"Hey, don't be afraid. It's alright.", trying to comfort the teen, Konnono tried to get her to relax.
"The poor dear is frightened. Come now. It's okay. None of us will hurt you here." A new voice cooed to help the girl not to be scared. She wore clothes that were of the color orange and black. Her hair was the same color as the small boy. Her gray eyes soft and caring.
The blunette peeked from her hands and looked at them. Hesitant at first but managed to get out from under the table. She slightly jumped when the cat thing came to view looking very sorry.
"Sorry that I scared you. But I didn't mean it! Mormo is very sorry!" It-Mormo-bowed in midair as it asked for forgiveness.
"Don't worry. Mormo only means well. I'm Konnono, by the way. Konnono Earhart." The teen looked at the pink haired girl. Then she looked at the rest.
"And these are Reine and Genis Sage." Konnono said, introducing the two in front of them.
"Hey there." , said Genis.
"Hello, dear.", said Reine.
The Sage siblings' smile were contagious that the blunette felt herself smile. But the smile soon faded and replaced by a small pink blush for the teen's stomach gave a grumble. The rest laughed at that. Of course. It has been three days since Konnono and Mormo found her.
"C'mon, let's get you something to eat.", said Konnono as she lead their guest to the kitchen.
"I'll-!"
"I'll cook something for her, sis!"
Genis cut off his sister with the statement on preparing the food. He didn't want the poor girl to die after just waking up. Fortunately, Reine only pouted on that. Not knowing the real reason. And for that, Genis, Konnono, and Mormo were glad.
xXx
"Here you go! Scrambled eggs, with a side of hash browns, bacon and toast! Along with a small but also healthy salad and orange juice.", said Genis when he happily placed the blunettes' food in front of her.
The girl only looked at her food in front of her for few minutes then looked up to the company that accompanied her. Then back to the food, then up again, then down again. The four couldn't help but laugh-Genis smirking-as they watched her looking back and forth from the food to them.
"Don't worry, it's good. See?", Konnono picked up a silver fork than took a small piece from the hash, then taking it in to her mouth before chewing then swallowed it.
"Now you try."
And so she did. The bluenette picked up a separate fork that as near her plate before picking up a piece of scrambled egg. She stared at it for a bit before placing it in her mouth. A happy feature showed itself on her face as the girl smiled at them, the fork still in her mouth.
"My, isn't that cute?", said Reine. The girl continued to eat her food and it wasn't that long until she was done.
"I'm sure that after eating you feel better now, huh?", as though she understood what Mormo said, the blunette nodded.
"Genis, Konnono, why not spend some time with her? There aren't any request for the time being.", Reine said as she went back to her work desk. The two nodded.
"Sure. I don't mind.", said Konnono.
"Why not? I'll show her around until Lloyd comes back and meet her.", grinning, Genis liked the idea of his friends meeting…
"Hold on a minute. Now that I think about it…"
"What is it, Genis?", asked the curious Mormo.
"It's just that…We exactly don't know her name…", he trailed from his sentence when he pointed at the blunette's direction. A dumbfounded and embarrassed grin on the half-elf's features.
Konnono and Mormo stood there with a blank look. Reine-somehow returning back to the kitchen-joined the two.
"Now that you mention it. How are we gonna know what her name is?", said Konnono in thought. The others joined in on the matter whilst their guest was looking around the area. It was a troublesome question, indeed.
No sooner that they started, their train of thoughts were interrupted by voices.
"-Like I said it wasn't my fault that you got caught in it!", said a flamboyant and somewhat arrogant voice.
"But you could have killed me with a spell!", said another. This one with an irritated and annoyed tone. It almost seemed to be whining.
"Will you stop shouting, you dreck! My head is throbbing from your meaningless whining!", said another annoyed voice.
"My, my, these three red-heads seem to be hotheads today.", said a mature teasing voice.
"C'mon guys, don't fight about it. It was an accident. No more fighting, please?", begged a voice.
The five came out of the kitchen to the lobby because of the noise outside and to see what the commotion was all about.
"Oh, man. Wonder what happened?", asked Genis to no one. The voices came more louder when the door was slowly opened.
'I swear if these three don't-", said the auburn-haired male in mid sentence.
"Kratos, what's with all the commotion?", said Reine with arms crossed.
The male-Kratos-pointed his thumb behind him. "Ask them." He then opened the door wider, only for the five to see five males bickering. The males then stopped when the noticed the door was open. It was an awkward silence as they all just stood there.
"My, my. This is a little embarrassing."
A/N: Well, there you go! Chapter two ends here! Please review to see if I'm doing well. Chiao~!
