The 8th Ghost: Gracie Raven Raggs
Chapter 2: The Grimm Hope of God
Flashback
Raven screamed as Frau was cut down by Verloren's scythe, which started to head her way. It didn't get to her however because a bright light surrounded her to take her somewhere. When the bright spots cleared she saw she was in a throne room that was completely white with a man in a white suit siting on the throne. This man she knew was God on the most instinctive level of her being.
"I see that you know who I am, but, there isn't much time before Verloren comes knocking on the gate. I know that things were not meant to go the way they did, so I will send you back in time to your beginning, Azrael. I will help you when I can, but, for the most part you will only have the help of Gabriel" she heard the fluttering of wings as the mentioned angel landed in front of her.
"I am happy to be able to serve such a lovely mistress!" Gabriel said when he got a good look at me as he took my right hand and gave it a kiss. When that happened a green orb got sealed inside her, which showed that he accepted her as his mistress.
"I will send you two to the past now Verloren is about to knock on the gate," as he said it she heard the nervous flutter of wings of hidden angels before being engulfed in bright light once more.
End Flashback
Raven awoke from her memory and looked to the side were the clock was to see that it was 7 in the morning. She got up off the bed and went into the bathroom where she quickly went then looked to see if there were cameras before a green orb came out of her right hand.
"Good morning mistress! Did you sleep well?" came the voice of Gabriel from the orb. She heard him more in her head then him actually saying it out loud. She smiled then said,
"Good morning to you too, Gab. Quick question, is it possible to talk with you in my mind?"
"Hmm, I think it is possible. Why don't you try right now and mistress why did you call me Gab?" Gab said to her.
"It's a short version of your name and were friends right? Friends give each other nicknames" she thought, hoping he would hear her.
"Oh mistress you have got to be the most wonderful mistress in the world!" Gab said, as he took control of her arms to give her a love filled tight hug leaving no don't in her mind he heard her.
"ACK! Gab not so tight, I can't breathe!" she said to him, sighing in relief when he made the hug gentler.
"Sorry mistress, I got carried away" Gab apologized as he gave her back her arms.
"It's fine Gab, and could you please call me 'Ven" she said, as she got her hair debrided.
"But mistress is mistress, I couldn't call you 'Ven…. Though I think I'll call you Raven. Would that be okay?" Gab said, thinking.
"That's more than okay, Gab" she said as she finished with her hair.
"Raven, someone's about to knock on the door so I'll talk with you later, bye!" Gab said, then the orb went down into her skin.
"Later Gab!" she said as someone knocked on her bathroom door. She opened it to see Kano with a change of white clothes in hand. She took the clothes, closed the door, and took a deep calming breath before changing into the white shorts and long sleeveless white shirt. These she knew were lab clothes she would wear as they did experiments on her. She went out of the bathroom and followed Kano out of her room and back to the lab. When they got there the doctors asked her to lay down on the table as they hooked her into the machines that will monitor her vitals. When that was done they did a quick physical, then put her back into Kano's capable hand's to get her ready to meet the Black Hawks. On the way back to her room, she asked Kano
"Do you think they will like me?" she asked, making sure there was a nervous tone in her voice and face when she glanced at him.
"I'm sure they will like you, so don't worry," then he smiled and continued, "Besides I'm going to be with you for this and other meetings with your father's unit, after all I'm your caretaker and hopefully friend" she looked at him with a grateful smile on her face as they got to her room. She changed into a sleeveless black turtleneck, black pants, and black calve high boots then Kano put her hair into a ponytail, then they went up to meet with Ayanami and the Black Hawks for breakfast. When they got to the door of the Hawks personal dining room, Kano motioned her to wait as he knocked on the door.
"Come in, Doctor" she heard Ayanami's voice say through the door. Kano opened the door and went inside, making sure the door was opened a crack so she could hear the conversation.
"Um…. Aya-tan why is there a doctor in here?" she heard a cheerful, yet nervous voice ask she thought 'Uncle Hyuga'.
"Maybe he's on standby for a beat down," came a sleepy voice 'Kuroyuri' she smiled.
"Maybe" came the voice of a softy, 'Haruse'.
"What did you do this time, Major?" the voice of someone almost always exasperated said, 'Konatsu' she thought with fondness.
"Perhaps we can let Ayanami-sama explain" came the voice of hidden darkness 'Katsuragi aka Landkarte' she gave herself a mental note to talk with Gabriel about him as soon as possible.
"Let's just bring that person in" she heard Ayanami say as she walked into the room. She saw both Konatsu's and Hyuga's jaws drop as she was reveled, while getting curious looks from the others. She stopped on the left side of Ayanami, turned, and introduced herself
"Hello everyone my name is Raven," her sentence got finished by Kano, "but please call her 'Ven"
"Is the nickname for when she's placed in the Academy? It is kind of masculine" Ayanami asked, genially curious as he got a box out.
"Yes" Kano smiled as he simply replied, while directing me and himself to a seat at the table. The others followed our lead once Konatsu and Hyuga got their jaws off the floor. Once everyone was seated Ayanami gave me the box he got out, motioning for me to open it. I did seeing in it a pair of black gloves, a dark blue jacket, and a black choker with a wing and dot in the middle charm on it. The choker had her symbol and the gloves would hide the symbol on her left hand when it would come in which it was only starting to. She put them on before putting food on her plate and digging in. Once the meal was finished Ayanami spoke,
"Raven, for the next two years you will be taught by myself and the others many different types of combat and Kano will help us tutor you in all the lessons you need to learn before going to the Academy. So prepare yourself you're in for the long haul" Everyone nodded, some with a rather evil gleam in their eye that did not inspire good thoughts. She knew this was going to be a long two years.
AN: "Yeah I managed to get a chapter out before it will get busy with school work. Finals are coming up, so that's going to take a lot of my attention. I'll still be working on stories when I have the time and thank you for reading. Please leave a review! Beetransfan ending transmission."
