Sunako walked through the halls of school. She felt nervous like the boys or Noi could be hidden behind any corner. Or worse, Sora. She had been avoiding them ever since Mary had come to visit her and ….things happened.
Only Kyouhei she hadn't been able to avoid. Which was quite natural since she had been sleeping in his room while she had been sick. But she had been lucky enough that he had a lot of exercises for school because he hadn't made his homework for a while.
Looking up at the sign that she had entered the garden Sunako hurried deeper into the garden going into the labyrinth. When she had reached the middle of the labyrinth a place where one could go sit on one of the banks she looked around her.
She and Mary had agreed to lunch together every day in the garden. Of course they always went separately even though they had the same classes. They didn't want anyone to become suspicious.
Already disappointed that she saw nobody Sunako gasped when she felt someone pull her into a hug from behind.
'Hey.' The person behind her whispered breathless
'Hey.' Just as breathless she whispered back before turning around and looking into the blood red eyes of Mary.
Mary smiled at Sunako though he made a note in his mind to teach her to be more cautious.
'How was your day?' He softly whispered into her ear.
Sunako laughed. 'I am pretty sure it was the same as yours since we have all our classes together.'
He chuckled. 'That's true.' He took her arms and then wrapped them around him. Slowly but surely he felt how Sunako let her head rest on his shoulders.
'Hey Sunako-chan?'
'Hmmm?'
'I want to show you something.' He said while pulling her towards one of the banks. He pushed her down on the bank.
'Whatever you do,please don't get scared okay?' He whispered into her ear. She just nodded silently realizing that something serious was about to happen.
Then suddenly there were two people standing before her . Even stranger both of them were Mary. Slowly Sunako stood up and touched both of them. Their faces ,their hands ,their backs. But she could feel them of both the bodies she was able to feel them.
'I should have know to go the mental hospital when I got addicted to horror movies.'
One of the Mary's chuckled while the other just kept smiling.
'You don't need to go there. What you're seeing is real. It's a paranormal ability called Bilocation. It's almost the same as astral projection but the difference that the body is psychical instead of spiritual.'
The other Mary opened his mouth as soon as the other had hut his mouth.
'We also posses the abilities Telepathy and Precognition. Though we can't use Precognition by will.'
'Yeah,that's kind of bothersome isn't it? But shouldn't we us I ? Since we're actually the same person.'
'Hmmm,You're probably right.'
The Mary standing on the right suddenly disappeared while the one on the left just remained. He walked towards Sunako who seemed slightly surprised. But hey,that's a lot better of a reaction than the one he had expected. He sighed as he sat down and pulled her onto his lap.
'I know you're surprised but I do love you,you know? Besides I have a reason that I told you.'
Sunako continued to look dazed.
'You're probably the same as me. You also have special abilities. Though I don't think they're the same as mine. You're probably more powerful since you awakened a long time ago. Sunako,I want you to meet the others of our kind.'
Slowly Sunako started nodding. It was her first reaction in awhile.
'I'll do it. I'll meet them.'
Mary let out a sigh of relief as he felt Sunako snuggle closer to him.
'Hey Mary,Maybe just maybe I'm also in love with you.'
Mary smiled. He knew she had said maybe but he also knew that for her that was almost the same as asking someone to marry her.
'I also love you,Sunako-chan.' He chuckled when he saw how she turned completely red before pulling her into a long and passionate kiss.
It was Friday evening. The rain came crashing down and the wind was blowing loudly. Sunanko didn't mind though. It was able to hide her nervosity . Well from anyone except Mary that is. He had felt her nervosity long ago and softly ran his hand trough her hair.
'Don't worry nothing will happen. And if something does happen I'll be there with you. So relax everything will be fine.'
Sunako smiled not completely convinced but relaxed by the feeling of Mary's hand going through her hair. It was already dark and they were walking to the meeting place with Mary holding an umbrella in his hand while going with his other hand through her hair. It felt familiar.
Mary had told her to wear a cocktail dress and she did.
She was wearing a cocktail dress which just didn't reached her knees. It left the back completely open and showed of her creamy skin. But didn't show any cleavage and also had a collar with lace. The dress had the same soft violet color as her eyes. She was wearing black velvet bow Victorian pumps which gave of a elegant look combined with the dress.
The pumps stood firm on 5" heel and the only reason she was able to walk on them as easily as she did was because of the boys their hellish training in trying to make her a lady.
He himself was wearing black jeans with a white shirt and a black tuxedo vest but not wearing the jacket. It gave him a confident and carefree look. It suited him.
They walked into a big building which looked like a warehouse where there hadn't been anyone in ages. They walked towards an elevator which opened automatically. It opened again on the lowest level. What they saw their surprised Sunako completely. The interior had completely changed to that of an old and deserted warehouse to that of one of the parties her aunty went to so often.
IT was only then that Sunako noticed that the room had went quiet after them entering.
'Miss, May I take your coat?'
Sunako looked at a man which stood there with open hands waiting till she gave him her coat.
'Yes,please.'
When she was out of her coat Mary accompanied her to 5 thrones which were standing in the middle of the room. He sat down on the one the most to the left. He chuckled when saw how lost she was. He pulled her towards him.
'Just stand next to me,Alright?' He said before quickly pressing a kiss on her lips. When he had released her lips she just smiled and nodded.
Quickly all the thrones except the one in the middle where seated. Sunako had noticed that everytime someone walked into the room who would sit on one of the thrones the room would always fall in silence.
Then finally the person who would fill in the last throne walked in the room. At first he didn't seem all that scary. Later Sunako would realize that that was exactly what made him so scary. Green eyes and long blond hair pulled together in a low ponytail. The hair came until under his waist. He had a slender and lean body standing firm at 1m77 tall. Sunako had been surprised to see that he was the one to sit down in the last throne.
Then suddenly out of nothing a person appeared next to him.
'May I introduce to you starting from the left,the clever Mary Vandenreyt,the powerful Qadir Sabah,….' Sunako looked at the beautiful Arabian man sitting next to Mary before looking at the person in the middle whose name should be next. '… Our ruler Amon Lalita,the beautiful Jeong Yun ….' She wasn't able to see this person but she could guess that he was a Korean. '…and lastly the righteous Olivier Sévère.' This one was probably from French origin.
'And the only apprentice of the moment belonging to one of them, Sunako Nakahara belonging to Mary.' She felt how everyone in the room turned to look at her. If it wasn't for Mary's hand she would have run away by now. But it was then that she realized how little woman there were in the room.
If she included herself there were 5 woman in the room. 1 was walking around with a plate where drinks were on. Another was standing at the table with snacks if you included toast with caviar as a snack. One was sitting down at the bar where strong drinks where being served. The other 2 where standing next to each other in the public.
'And lastly may I introduce to you our own old wise lady.'
Oops, scrap that 5,make it 6.
An old lady with long silver hair bound in a braid stepped inside the roomand walked to the middle of it.
'This woman will test the powers of the newcomers. So if may,Please let the newcomers and their masters come to the old lady. Come to the middle if your name is called.
William Shade.'
A young handsome man walked out of the crowd behind him following someone who looked like had won the sumo wrestling championship quite easily. He pushed the younger man toward the old lady who had closed her eyes. She softly touched the man his forehead.
'The ability to create things out of nothing, Apportation. And as secondarily ability Transvection, The ability to levitate . ' For a moment the crowd seemed surprised by the fact he had a secondarily ability but then they started applauding.
'Luc Sine.' A middle aged man came out of the crowd followed by an even older man. The woman touched his forehead.
'The ability to move things with the mind only, Telekinesis.'
'Yali and Mali Kirra.'
Two young twins walked towards the old lady followed by one of the few woman. The first one ran to the old lady before stopping abruptly right before the lady. She smiled at him before touching his forehead.
'The ability to collect information from a distance, Remote Viewing.'
The next boy came to stand next to his brother. The old lady also touched his forehead.
'The ability to heal by channeling a form of energy, Energy Medicine.'
The boys smiled at each other before hurrying back into the crowd.
'Sunako Nakahara.'
Sunako felt how Mary stood up next to her and accompanied her to the old lady before whispering into her ear. 'Calm down,She only touches your forehead and everything will be done.' Nervously she nodded.
'Mary Is it? This is the first time you have brought someone,isn't it? I'm curious to see what kidn of person was able to attract you're attention.' The old woman said friendly her eyes still closed.
'Yes ideed, Ma'am. '
Mary and Sunako now stood right before the lady. The lady touched Sunako's forehead .
'I'm afraid you'll have to let go of her. Right now it feels like she has 3 abilities while in reality yours are just so powerful that I can't sense hers.'
Mary nodded and let go of her but not before giving a squeeze in her hand.
'Hmm, seems like I wasn't all that wrong after all she does have 2 abilities. The ability to gain information about something trough means other than the known human senses. Clairvoyance.'
'Mary,If I were you I would quickly return her from wherever you got her.'
'Why?'
'Because this ability might cost you or 1 of the others their thrones.'
This caught the seated ones their attention. Before Mary could even say that the old woman could do so anyway Amon answered for him.
'What is her ability?'
'The ability to control air, Aerokinetic.'
This time the whole room went silent, with not a single exception. Nobody even thought about it to ask her if she was sure since never before she had made a mistake. The ability to control elements was rare. The only ones who were able to do it was Amon and Jeong.
'I see.' Then Amon finally said
As if that was a sign everyone suddenly started whispering and talking. Then suddenly the korean had stood up.
'Amon,Mary,I would like to request Mary to hand her over as his apprentice to me.'
I'm sorry,I know I'm a day late. But from now I promise to be on time with every upload I make. (Not Really)
