Chapter 9: First mission

Rey ran down the halls of the Black Order with his bag towards the entrance, Damn it, Kanda's gonna kill me for being late, why'd I eat so fast! When he reached the entrance, he saw Floria, Kizumi and Kanda waiting for him, and he stopped in front of him, "Sorry I'm late guys." No problem," Kizumi said, Floria nodded in agreement, Kanda just 'che'd' at him.

"Come on, Moyashis, we don't have all day," Kanda said, clearly irritated. Rey, Floria and Kizumi glared at Kanda lividly at being called Moyashis, but otherwise didn't say anything. They went up the carriage waiting for them and left to the ferry port.

At the ferry port, the Exorcists finally arrive and are waiting for the Finder assigned to be with them, when they saw the Finder and Rey and Floria recognized him at once, "Toma-san!" "Ah! Rey-san! Floria-san! Kizumi-san! Kanda-san!" Toma shouted out. "Eh! Rey, Floria, you know this Finder?" Kizumi asked.

"Yeah! He was an acquaintance of our father and mother, and we were indroduced to him about a few ago," Floria explained. "Oh! Anyway, pleased to meet, Toma-san!" Kizumi greeted. "Same here, Kizumi-san," Toma also greeted. Kanda 'che'd' again and boarded the ferry with the others following and waited for it to depart and sail across the English Channel.

Rey was at the deck of the ferry watching the waves; he liked the sea as it was majestic and beautiful, but at times can be cruel and ruthless. He suddenly heard someone throwing up into the sea beside him, and from the corner of his eye he saw a familiar dark brown hair. Rey turned towards the girl who was the same age as him, "You okay, Kizumi?" "Yeah, I just got seasick," Kizumi said weakly, "I'll be alright, though."

"You sure?" Rey asked, worried. "Yeah, I'll be fi-" Kizumi threw up again before she could finish her sentence, and she almost collapsed if Rey didn't catch her. "I think I'd better let you lie down," he said as he helped Kizumi stay standing. "Okay then…" she said as Rey brought her to her cabin to lie down. As he laid her on the bed, Kizumi said, "I'm sorry, Rey, for giving you trouble…" "It's no trouble at all," Rey said, putting a hand on her forehead to make sure she wasn't ill, Kizumi blushed at the contact. "Get some rest; I'll wake you when we're alighting," Rey told her as he was exiting her room, Kizumi said again, "Rey… Thank you once again." Rey smiled and exited. Kizumi lay on the bed and closed her eyes, falling asleep…

"Come on, Kizumi," a woman called towards her daughter.

"Coming, Mother!" the dark brown-haired answered enthusiastically, holding her boomerang in one hand. They were walking through the forest to spend some family time.

Suddenly, somebody appeared in front of them, "Excuse me, strangers, do you happen to know where the next village is?"

"Yes, actually, we do," Kizumi's father answered. "Can you take me there?" the stranger asked.

"Of course, of course!" Kizumi's father answered again and they lead the stranger out of the forest. Minutes later, a gravel path came in sight and they stopped on the path, "Just turn right here and continue straight and you'll reach our village soon," her father said.

"Oh thank you," the stranger said, shaking the other man's hand, "Now then…DIE!" and the stranger changed into a metal, snake-like creature and some balloon-like creatures appeared everywhere. "Now then, attack at will!" the metal serpent ordered and the other grey creatures pointed their guns towards the family, and fired. Kizumi's mother went in front of her, in an attempt to protect her daughter.

Kizumi opened her eyes to see her mother in front of her, black pentacles forming throughout her mother's body. She looked towards her father, black stars also forming throughout his body. Kizumi watched in horror as her parents crumbled into dust once the stars covered their entire bodies. She screamed and fell back. The machines were moving closer as she tried to back up. The girl suddenly reached her boomerang that she dropped; she looked at it, then at the monsters and back at her boomerang. She just did what the came to her mind, she threw the boomerang at the monsters with all her strength in desperation.

To her surprise, her boomerang glowed green and cut through the metal creatures like paper and they exploded. However, some of the remaining ones pointed their cannons at her, and tears formed at her eyes as she knew what was going to happen. The next thing she saw was a giant white creature jumping towards the grey monsters.

"Kizumi! Kizumi! Kizumi!" a voice called out, "Wake up!"

Kizumi opened her eyes and her vision was blurred. She blinked once and her vision focused and she found herself looking into a pair of silver eyes. "Ah! Rey?"

"Good! You're awake, you screamed and I tried to wake you. When you wouldn't wake up, I got worried." Rey said, relief.

"Sorry, Rey," Kizumi apologized.

"No need to apologize, anyway we need to get off now, we've reached land," Rey exclaimed, picking up her bags and pushing her pass the door. Kizumi quickly snatched her belongings from Rey and darted off the ferry along with Rey.

"There you are, Rey, what took you so long?" Floria asked, "It shouldn't have taken that long to wake someone up…or did you do something to her," Floria grinned at her brother. Rey flushed at that comment and stuttered, "N-no, of course I d-d-didn't, i-it just took awhile t-to wake her up."

Kizumi giggled at the boy's nervousness and decided to back him up, "It's true he didn't do anything to me." Then Toma spoke up, "Anyway, we should get to the train station now." The group nodded and Kanda just did his usual 'che' before walking off with the rest towards the station.

Thank you and hoped you enjoyed it.
