Chapter 12:

AN: Did her spell worked or not? Let's see…

Chapter 12:

Rosette finished the spell and stared on the pentagram in front of her and didn't dare to breath. Even after three minutes nothing happened. Relieved she breathed loudly out and let her strained shoulders sink down. She blew the candles out and sat down on her bed. Her head leaned on her hand and some hairs fell into her face.

"Stupid thing. I knew it wouldn't work." She looked down onto the pentagram and pulled a face. Today she wouldn't clean it up, but tomorrow she would have to. Especially because she didn't want anyone to know that she had really did that childish stuff. She didn't believe it herself. The blonde stuck out her tongue to the painting on the floor and pulled the carpet over it again. Of cause she had put the candles before at her desk. She looked around in her room. Good, the room looked clean and nobody would find out what she had done in there. Then the blonde took a pyjama out of her wardrobe and went into the bathroom to take a shower. The hot water was really comfortable and she wanted to stay there forever, but she was interrupted by loud knock on the door.

"Rosette! Hurry up! You're not the only one who want to take a shower! Rosette! Do you hear me?!" The voice of his brother's said angrily and he knocked one more time.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm nearly done in here!" She yelled back and tried herself up with a towel. Then she put on her pyjama, took the hair drier and opened the door for Joshua. He went in, she went out and into her room again. But she stopped abruptly in her door. The carpet was pulled away again and the candles burned at the sides of the pentagram. Immediately the girl turned around on her heels and rushed to the bathroom. Loudly she knocked.

"Joshua!! Have you been in my room! If yes, you're so dead!!" She shouted through the door.

"Why should I've been there?! I wasn't really!!" Something in his voice told her that he said the truth. Worried she went to her room again. It was still like she had seen it two minutes ago. A cold breath blew and Rosette saw the open window. Through the air which came from the window the little flames of the candles grew bigger. The blonde decided to close the window. She didn't want the flames to grow more and burn something. As soon as she entered the room the door closed behind her.

"Don't worry, don't worry. That was only the wind, only the wind." She tried to calm down herself. Then she heard a CLICK from the lock at the door. "Okay, that was not the wind!!" She shrieked and jumped to the window and closed it. Now the breath should stop. But to her surprise it didn't and the flames grew nevertheless. Now their high was nearly one meter. Shocked the girl stared at them and tried to put the fire out with her pillow. But there was no use and the flame was still too big. Was that a whisper in the breath? It just sounded like someone had talked to her! Okay, now I'm insane!! There was the whisper again!

"… right….place…" A low voice said.

"What?!" She shrieked again.

"…Go to your right place…"

"Right place? What right place?" She screamed now really scarred and her look fell onto the smaller pentagram. Perhaps this was meant. She hurried into it and the breath stopped blowing in the whole room. Instead of this it condensed above the big pentagram. The air there was darker now and it looked like smoke. The smoke covered the whole place there and Rosette wasn't able to see through it.

Then everything was wiped away and Rosette couldn't believe her eyes. In the middle of the pentagram was – no that couldn't be! A young man knelt there, his hairs so dark that they seemed purple, to horns sticking out of his head and two folded bat-wings at his back, a bone tail coming out of his neck, his clothes were all dark.

"You've called me. Tell me your wish…" He looked up at her and the girl could see the sharp fangs while he spoke. His eyes were glowing golden. Covering her mouth with her palm she stepped back and out of her pentagram until she felt the wall at her back. She wasn't shocked because of the demon himself, she was really shocked that he looked exactly like the Chrono she had met before. Of cause with the only difference that the demon's eyes were golden.

"I don't have time forever, Rosette." To scarred to say anything she slowly shook her head and was still not able to believe what had happened.

"And you're out of your pentagram. I could kill you if I wanted it now. You're lucky that I'm not another devil." He got up and stared with her. He was nearly one head taller than her and she had to look up now. Why had she wanted to try out this stupid demon-calling (or whatever it's called)?? That was her stupidest idea ever. Her heart began to beat even faster as the devil moved to her and out of the pentagram. Okay, that was definitely not planned. Actually the devil should be imprisoned IN the pentagram. But why didn't it work now?! The flame of the candles went about two meters high and then they went out. The painted chalk on the floor vanished as well that meant that she had no protection against the devil.

Then something unexpected happened. His eyes became red and looked at her softly. The wings vanished and so did the horns. The bone tail was no longer a bone tail, it transformed into a braid of long purple hair. The demon clothes changed into normal clothes as well, a red-black shirt and a pair of jeans.

"Don't try that again. To call a demon is dangerous, especially for inexperienced persons like you." Chrono said with a clam voice and noticed her look at him. "I'm sorry that I scarred you."

Rosette shook her head one again. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something but closed it immediately.

"I'm going home if you don't mind." Chrono told her and was about to leave the room as he noticed the landscape outside the window. "Where are we?!" He asked confused. He didn't know any place next to New York that looked like this one outside.

"In Michigan." Rosette explained quickly and waited for his reaction.

"What?! HOLY CRAP!! It takes ages to go back to Hell High!" He ran both his hands through the purple bangs.

"I'm sorry… I didn't know what I was saying in this spell thing. I didn't want to make you troubles, really. It was a stupid idea to want to call a demon, really!" Rosette tried to apologize. She didn't know what Chrono would do now and at the moment she proposed that it would be better not to make him angry.

Suddenly Chrono lifted his head and looked to the door. "Someone's coming." The blonde listened carefully as well, but only some seconds later she was able to hear quiet footsteps on the stairs to her room. That was a problem. How should she explain that the boy who was in her room was the result of a demon conjuring ritual? She looked around into the room. "Can you hide somewhere please? I get trouble if they see you here…" And then she couldn't believe her eyes again, but on the other hand a lot had happened today and she was quite sure now that nothing was impossible. Chrono disappeared directly in front of her. It was as if he had never been there. And only moments later the door slammed open and Joshua looked in. Wasn't the door locked up? Well, at least it was open now…

"Rosette? Why did you scream? Eh, doesn't matter. Have you seen my new playstation game? I mean the one with the monsters and so on…" He asked her, but she answered him that she didn't and her brother went away again to look into the living room for it.

Rosette still stood in the middle of the room and didn't know what to do. "Uhm… Chrono?" She heard a sound from her bed and saw him sitting on its edge. "So your still here." – "Yeah." An embarrassing silence followed.

"Do you want to drink something?" This was the only thing Rosette could say now. Sure, she had other questions to him, but at first this.

"Sure why not. But only a water…" Chrono smiled at her and the girl relaxed slowly. She asked him to wait in her room; she would be back in some minutes. She hurried into the kitchen and took a bottle of water and two glasses with her. Fortunately she didn't meet someone on her way who could ask her why she was carrying TWO glasses.

AN: So that was this chapter… as always, please review and tell me what I can do better…

lol... Rosette's reaction: Oh no! You are a devil!!! - Do you wanna drink something? lol...
