Thanks For Not Destroying Me!
We reach the cemetery in two minutes. We were all shaken up from the fast ride, but Panty seemed to enjoy more than the rest of us.
"Holy crap! That was awesome!" Panty exclaimed, climbing out of See Through.
"The wind almost broke my neck…" I said, rubbing the back of my neck.
"That's how you know that the car is doing a great job! You have to feel the wind!" Panty exclaimed, much louder than before.
"Come on, Panty. We have to take this guy to Garts." Stocking said, already walking to the entrance of the church.
"Oh, I almost forgot why we brought you here in the first place." Panty said, gesturing for me to get in the church with them.
It wasn't that big of a church, but it did have some kind of dining room, with an upper level, which I assume was where the girls sleep in.
"HEY GARTS! WE GOT A SURPRISE FOR YA!" Panty exclaimed.
"Did you take care of that ghost?" said the dark skinned priest as he seemed to have come out of nowhere.
"About that...he's the thing that the note was talking about." Stocking said, pointing to me without even looking.
"Grey hair…" Garterbelt said, just staring at me with huge eyes.
There's just something about those eyes that make me feel uneasy; as if he's about to pounce on me at any second.
"Well, you look like a fine young man. Tell me, why did Heaven bring you here?" He asked in a soft voice that almost sounded creepy in my perspective.
"He said that he-" Panty started to say.
"SHUT UP! Let the boy speak!" Garterbelt snapped.
Panty just stood there staring at Garterbelt with a look that could kill.
"Continue, please." Garterbelt said.
"Well, to make a long story short, I came here to help you guys with your ghost problem. It seems like the Dark Matter left from the remaining Dark Energy's recent defeat has found its way into your ghosts, and it's using them as some kind of recharging system. Though Panty and Stocking said that they can destroy these ghosts, they can't break through the Dark Matter barrier that encases them. Which is why the ghosts are being, according to Stocking, 'a pain in the butt'. " I explained.
"So that's why we could never crack a dent in their skin." Panty said.
"Okay, so if you came here to help us, what could you possibly do?" Garterbelt asked.
"I can do many things, just ask the girls, for they have seen only a fraction of my power." I said.
"A FRACTION?" both girls exclaimed.
"Yup. I wasn't even trying when I stopped See Through."
"Woah. That's a hell of a lot of power." Stocking said.
"It's a gift, and a curse...but mostly a gift." I said, sitting down on the couch next to Garterbelt, who shifts closer to me, until we were uncomfortably close.
"Uh...I think there's this thing called 'personal space'?" I say, trying to make more room for myself.
"Piss off, Garter, you're scaring him." Stocking said.
"Screw you." Garterbelt said as he left the room.
"Well, now that we've gotten that out of the way... what happens now?" I asked the girls.
"Nothing. We just wait for another warning to come from Heaven to tell us which ghost we have to kill next." Stocking said, going to the kitchen. "Ugh, I need some sweets. It's been a long day."
"And it's almost noon. I need another round." Panty said.
That's when there was a knock at the door.
"I bet it's Geek Boy." Panty mumbled as she walked over to the door.
Briefers Rock, a.k.a Brief, was standing at the door of the church, he was in a green jumpsuit, wearing a huge backpack with headphones. He had bushy orange hair which bangs covered his eyes. He also had freckles on his face.
His heart skipped a beat when Panty opened the door.
"H-Here you go, P-Panty. These are for you." Brief said holding a bouquet of flowers to her.
Panty didn't even bat an eye.
"What do you want, Geek Boy?" She said, annoyed.
"I-I wanted to give you some flowers! D-D-Don't you like them?" Brief asked.
"Come back when you have a trail of men following you." She said as she pushed past Brief.
Brief's flowers wilted as he ran to catch up with her.
Inside, I was just sitting on a couch that happened to in front of a TV set. I was way too bored to watch television, so I just thought about what everyone's doing at home.
"I hope Ingrid's okay." I thought to myself.
"Hey. Are you okay?" Stocking said, appearing right next to me.
"Yeah, just thinking about home." I said. staring off into the ceiling.
Stocking sat down next to me, eating her sweets in silence.
"So what brought you here?" she finally asked.
"The Dark Matter problem was worse here, so I had to come here as quickly as I could." I answer.
"When do you think this'll be all over?" she asked.
"I'm not really sure." I say. "It really depends on the strength and number of the ghosts that we're dealing with."
"Well, that's going to take a while." Stocking said, not looking up from her plate.
"There are that many ghosts?" I ask.
"Yup. tons of them." Stocking answered.
"Woah. I wonder how you two cope." I say.
"Well, when you live in a world that is corrupted in sin, and you're an angel, then you have a lot things to do." Stocking said.
I chuckled. "Especially if the ghosts can't even be destroyed to start with."
A small smile came on Stocking's face. "We'll just have to get much stronger. And now that you're here, this should be easy."
"I'll be glad to help you guys." I said. "Oh, and here's a thank-you gift for allowing me to help without having to fight you first."
Stocking raised an eyebrow.
"It's happened way too much for my liking." I said, starting to wave my hands. "Now for the gift."
In a small flash of light, a colorful slice of cake appears in my hand, with rainbow frosting.
Stocking squealed in delight, almost tackling me in order to grab the precious morsel.
"Hey, hey!...It's not going anywhere." I said, handing the piece of cake to her.
Almost immediately, she takes the cake slice out of my hand and takes a bite out of it. Her eyes widened with overflowing amounts of ecstasy and delight.
"Woaaaaaahhhh. W-What is this?!" Stocking squealed, shaking me as if I was hiding more of them in my clothes.
"It's the legendary Rainbow Cake. It has several types of different mouth-watering flavors. I found it while I was warping here, and I was about to eat it, but instead I saved it, thinking that someone else would like it better than I would have. And I guess I chose the right person to give it to." I say, shrugging my shoulders.
"Oh, thank you! This is the best thing I've ever tasted!" She exclaimed, giving me a huge hug.
I didn't know what to do. I decided to hug her back, it wouldn't be right to just leave her there without acknowledging her. And to say this personally, she reminds me of Ingrid in a way.
Just saying it to myself sounds weird.
She pushes away from me and goes upstairs to enjoy her gift.
"Woah. She must really like that…" I say, watching her leave.
I sit back down on the couch, trying to figure out what Panty would want as a gift.
A few hours later, Panty comes strolling in with some orange-haired teenage boy. He wore a green jumpsuit with a backpack and headphones. His hair covered his eyes, and his face was somewhat spotted with freckles.
"P-P-Panty, a-are you going to be okay?" he asked.
"I'm just fine, just leave me alone. I haven't done a guy all day, and that guy rejected me." Panty said, pointing towards me.
I look away and start to whistle innocently.
Panty groans and heads upstairs with the oranged-haired boy following close behind.
After a couple of minutes, the orange-haired boy came back downstairs, looking depressed. He didn't even notice the gray-haired boy that was sitting on a couch that wasn't far away from him.
I felt sorry for the boy, but he was the least of my worries. Panty said something about 'doing a man', so if I bring in a couple of men, that would make a great gift - for someone with her type of interests.
"If it's men she wants, it's men that she's going to get." I say, my hand glowing.
In a blinding flash of light, ten men appear out of nowhere, and they are extremely confused.
"Where the hell am I?" one of them said.
"I don't know, a church, maybe?" another one said.
"Hey! All of you guys listen up!" I said.
All the men turn to look at me, and they surprisingly keep quiet to hear what I have to say.
"There's a woman upstairs that needs your help. Something about, plumbing?" I said, wondering if that sounded right.
Everyone's eyes lighten up.
"Where is she?" They all exclaim.
"Just follow me." I said.
We walked to a door in which I assumed was Panty's room, and knocked.
Nothing.
I knocked again.
Still nothing.
I opened the door, and it was a custodian's closet that was inside.
"Oops, wrong door." I said, ruffling my hair. "This must be the right one." I say pointing to another one right next to the closet.
I turned back to the ever-growing excitement of the men standing behind me.
"Alright, when I tell you to come in, come inside." I said, and they nodded.
I knocked on the door, and there was a sharp "What?!" coming from the inside.
"Hey Panty! I've got a surprise for you!" I said.
"Piss off. Don't you see that I'm not in the mood right now?" She said.
"I heard that you didn't get to do any men today, (As if I know what that means) so I've decided to bring a couple of them to your room personally." I said.
Silence, then footsteps, then the door opens with a messy Panty looking straight at me.
"Where are they?" She said in a skeptical tone.
"Guys, you can come in now." I yelled.
Ten men came out from out of nowhere, putting a huge smile on Panty's face.
"How did you know my fetish for men?" Panty asked with a sly smile.
"It was...actually kind of obvious, and I'm omniscient, so I basically know everything about you." I said.
"Thanks for the gift. Now, if you excuse me." She said, gesturing for the men to come into her room.
"I'll remember this." Panty said, winking at me and closing the door.
Soon after that, I started hearing weird noises.
"REALLY? AGAIN?!" a voice in another room - presumably Stocking's - exclaimed in annoyance.
I had enough of this, so I went downstairs and laid down on the couch, feeling pretty good about what I did.
Sometimes, I really think that Ingrid is the only person that keeps me sane in this Multiverse.
"And she isn't a cartoon or anime character." I said. "She was born perfect."
