~Luna's POV~
So it wasn't just me that had an odd experience today. I thought smirking as Aura's eyes grew wide realizing that I wasn't going to be side tracked by the fact that I also received some form of a kiss.
"Sooooo you were kissed huh?"
"It was only the hand! Besides you were kissed on the NECK that is perverted you know!"
"A kiss on the hand is very classy and adorable. And so what if I had one on the neck you're the one getting all flustered and defensive at the moment"
"..." Aura was giving me a look that easily said 'just shut up before you regret what you say,' of course I know that is an empty threat just as it always is.
"Oh come on~ you know it's true"
"Whatever" My sister rolled over onto her side, one arm placed under the pillow and curled up slightly into a ball glaring at the wall in annoyance.
I guess I'll stop teasing her for now.
"...I saw that you didn't get to finish the write up by the way so I did it myself. It just needs to be sent to father"
"Thanks! That's great, I'll send it to father in a bit"
"Already done as well" I couldn't help but smile knowing that I had been right once again about not actually do anything to live up to the silent threat. But before I could sit down and get comfortable there was a knock coming from the other side of the door.
Man is it impossible for anyone to get some rest in this place? I opened the door to find Lenalee standing there grinning faintly.
"Sorry for intruding, I realize that it wasn't that long ago that we had a meeting but brother is holding another in a few minuets and wants you to come as well."
"Another order?" Turning a small bit to see Aura sitting up frowning, just like me she had been hoping that people would stop trying to order us around but I guess that isn't going to happen. The way things are we will definitely need to start working together or we aren't going to get anywhere.
That means I'll have to work with Cross when the time calls for it...but maybe it wont be that bad...no! of course it will with his annoying and unwanted advancements there is no way that it would be okay to do!
"We should get going then I suppose, there's no point in arguing there are still something's that need to be cleared up anyways"
"...Guess your right. But let's get this over with quickly I'm exhausted and want to go to bed"
"Alright let's get going then shall we?" Lenalee's smile doubled in size realizing that there wasn't going to be any more problems at the moment. Silently I began to think about how much more trouble is soon to come though, this is just the beginning who knows what will happen in the future.
"The roof is almost fixed, but for now the repairs are going to be put on hold so we can have the meeting. That room is the biggest we have so we don't have much of a choice right now."
"Why is this of any concern?""Just figured I'd start a conversation and inform you of what is going on at the moment. I would talk about something else but I don't know you all that well so I don't want to say anything to anger you"
"You know you are probably one of the most sensible person here Lenalee."
"It is strange considering everyone else's previous actions"
Her attention was fully on the two of us in shock for the fact that we complimented someone to some extent.
"What?"
"Nothing...but you two just don't seem like the type to go complimenting someone like that, or at least not from what I have seen so far."
Aura closed her eyes sighing "We aren't really all that mean you know"
"It's just a face we put on in front of people we don't know, sort of like a self defence sort of thing"
"Not to sound rude or anything but I would have never guessed that you two would do that, it makes sense though. Considering all that's happened it probably makes you a little uneasy opening up to people right away. Not to mention the situation you are both put in, it would take a lot to trust strangers so easily like that."
We had no need to respond to that, there was nothing to say. She had basically gotten the small parts of why we do things that way and we had reached the room used for meetings that was conveniently placed close to the bedrooms. Walking in there were three empty seats, one was in between the Allen kid and the girly looking Kanda. The other two seats were placed EVER so CONVENIENTLY directly in between both Cross Marian and Tyki Mikk.
"You have to be kidding me. Do we really have to sit by you two?"
"Awww come on now no need to be mean, here I thought we were becoming good friends" Tyki mockingly replied pouting slightly.
"Not a chance in your life" Aura reluctantly sat down besides Tyki who had prevented her from taking the seat furthest from him next to Cross with me following suit as I painfully tried to keep my composure as I sat next to my sister and the man I had been hoping to avoid. It didn't even take long before he started brushing his leg against mine as some weird advancement.
"Don't touch me" I whispered to him quietly as to not disturb Komui who had started talking about something I wasn't paying attention to.
~Aura's POV~
I can't believe these retards actually made it so that we have to sit by them. What are they trying to do, stalk us or something? I sat at the table with my eyes closed attempting to listen to what Komui was saying but found myself once again distracted by some unknown force. I could hear Luna somewhat beside me though, she was giving Cross hell for something but I wasn't quite sure what. Something touched the top of my leg near my knee as my attention was brought back to reality as I started hard at the hand that had suddenly decided that occupying my leg momentarily was a good thing.
I should shit kick them for sexual harassment or something like that. I thought as I grabbed the top of the hand pinching the skin as tightly as I could, earning a suppressed yelp coming from the owner of the hand. Glaring slightly I glanced over looking at the dark skinned man rubbing his hand as he gave me another pout.
"Hands off"
"Oh but why~ There wasn't any harm done, I was just placing my hand on your leg"
"As I said; hands off"
"Well you're not being any fun" Sneakily Tyki put his hand through the arm of the chair poking my hand, leg and wherever else he could reach without invading personal space and making it seem as nothing was going on.
"You know for someone who claims he is going to earn my respect you certainly are doing a poor job!"
"Is something wrong Aura, Luna?" Komui asked.
"Nothing" We growled in union.
"Alright well, continuing we are going to be splitting everyone up into groups and send you out on missions once again." Luna and I stood up knocking the chairs over as they hit the ground with a loud thud that attracted everyone's attention and also stopped Tyki and Cross from their assault.
"Are you really that stupid?"
"Haven't you already tried this tactic and had it FAIL"
"Well what do you suppose we do instead?" one of the exorcists asked.
"It isn't like we have much of a choice there isn't anything else we can do" Komui stated back up the exorcist.
"Have you really not notice how doing this has gotten you no where?"
"If you keep going like this you're all going to end up dying"
"And your not?"
"Nope, we won't be killed by such weak level devils"
"If you are going to do try winning this and surviving you need to attack them first not wait for them to strike"
"You attack them directly"
"Ummm...didn't you say that it would save lives?" Miranda said timidly
"Compared to how many lives would be lost if you do things the way you have been it would save more lives over all."
"Besides it does work our world has been doing it since the beginning and we've managed to beat them almost every time and Aura and I are two of the only people capable of using magic"
"Didn't you mention earlier that you need magic to kill them? If you're two of the only ones how could anyone else kill them without the magic?" Tyki curiously asked staring up at me.
"We give them weapons made by ourselves after transferring our magic to them"
"As soon as the weapon has old magic flowing through it, it can kill the devils just as easily as any normal spell."
"Why didn't you say anything about this before?"
"Why the hell would we"
"None of you wanted to hear our way not to mention the treatment when we arrived at your so called hideout"
Hope began to fill up the room as it seethed from everyone present even if they didn't show it in their faces just from how the atmosphere seemed to life in response going from heavy, unfriendly, worried and harsh to light, welcoming, hopeful and gentle. "So that means you'll start making some weapons then?" Komui asked practically standing on the table in excitement.
"No" I replied eyes closed, smirking knowing exactly what the reaction would be and as if on cue I got screamed at in protest as others were jolting up out of their seats, kicking the chairs aside.
"What we mean is that it would take to long for just the two of us to do it not to mention the energy it would take."
"That is why we are having previously made ones dropped off."
"And would you look at that, what excellent timing they are here now"
~Luna's POV~
Everyone turned to look in the direction I was pointing as a universal doorway began to open and a total of four people from our world walked out carrying massive bags full of previously made weapons that had been in storage awaiting their chance to be used. Amongst the group there was a boy with short spiky red hair and vibrant purple eyes scanning the mass of people around the table stopping the instant he spotted us before parading towards us grinning a grin that went from ear to ear.
"Luna! Aura! Long to no see!" The young man said a little too loud in his excitement.
"Evan" We replied with grins of our own that caught the attention of the two scoundrels that were standing off to the side that began marching over to stand next to us.
"Oh! Are these some new friends?" Evan had been our only actual friend through most of our lives, he had always taken pride in being able to stay with us as long as he has and from being there for that long he knew that we weren't exactly the kind to make friends so easily so the thought that we managed to make some must have come off as a huge deal exciting him even further.
"No they're just a pair of pests"
"That isn't very nice" Tyki tried to say but was cut off by yours truly.
"Who can't seem to understand the concept of personal space" I glared to the side slightly at Cross that became the source of a sly smirk plastered on his face.
"...?" Evan scratched the top of his head just as he always did when confused.
"It's a long story..." Aura sighed
"...I see" He glanced back and forth between all of us. The three of us started talking about random things, just chit chatting with each other like we usually we but were interrupted by Komui as few minuets later when he came up to us asking-
"You planned this all out already?"
"We mentioned earlier that we would be taking care of things from now on didn't we?"
"So we took the privilege of sending father the information of what we are planning on doing, what we needed, what spell to use and when we needed everything by"
"I didn't know right away myself that things had been taken care of but Aura had said that she taken care of the work while I was KIDNAPED by a certain someone. "
"What do you plan on doing?" Cross asked
Turning to glance at him I replied "We did say that we should attack them head on did we not?"
"We got father to send a few warriors from our world and weapons"
"What are we going to do after that?" Komui asked "We have the weapons but surely that isn't the whole thing"
"We are going to get their attention"
"The devils go wherever there is a large amount of magic, they need it to live. If people were to release the magic then it would bring them to us"
"After that everyone will attack them. It wont only get their attention but it will show them that you all wont be such pushovers anymore."
"Wont that mean they will send stronger enemies though?"
"Yes they will send strong devils but it won't just be Alskar and Earth that will be fighting"
"What do you mean by that?" Tyki enquired
"Did you think it was just two worlds? The world the devils come from is massive and new ones are created nearly all the time they need a lot of space. In comparison of the size it's like a grape to the biggest book you could find; Earth and Alskar being the grape.
"Speaking of which have the others been informed yet?"Aura asked Evan
"No, not yet, Ekon is working on that right now though."
"What is the rest of the plan?" Komui pressed further for information
"Well we're going to do what you suggested earlier only this time it is going to be done properly"
"If they have the weapons with them they should be fine but you will need to organize the people according to weaknesses and strengths to ensure their safety of course a few can be accompanied by our warriors if you wish that way they will be protected in a worst case scenario. However we cant do anything until we get word from father that he as alerted the others"
"How long will that take?"
"A few days at the most"
"A few days? We don't have that much time!" Komui panicked
"Well you're going to have to deal with that, in our world time moves slower then here so for them it would only be a few hours."
"It's the best we can do. To act restlessly now would be a huge mistake"
"Ekon sent us to help you so we will be waiting for the orders to take action or whatever else you two think need to be done" Evan was always so willing to help us I guess that it's because he understands a lot more then what he may allow people to think he does.
~FF a few hours later~
Since Evan and the others have shown up they have been taking care of the preparations for our assault on the devils leaving us with nothing to do but sit back and wait. Which is just fine the two of us have used up a lot of energy the past few days trying to defend this place. It probably wasn't best to bring us here either though the devils can easily sense high levels of magic without any trouble which is the reason they have been attacking this place so frequently. We've had issues trying to hide it as best as we could but it takes a lot of energy so there are a lot of precautions that need to be taken unless we plan to pass out from exhaustion. Evan and father know this which is why we are probably not aloud to do anything at this moment in time.
"Would anyone care to explain why those two idiots have decided to follow us?" momentarily looking over at either side of myself and Aura the two idiots she mentioned are standing there as if nothing has happened and that it is okay to follow people who don't really want anything to do with them at the moment.
"There's no need for that we just figured you lovely ladies would want some company considering you have nothing to do as of right now."
"Don't flatter yourself"
"Come now, don't make me have to get you to repay me again for boring me" Cross teased brushing my hair off to the side.
"Don't touch my sister!"
"Shut up"
"You son of a bitch don't tell me what to do!"
It's almost funny how well they DON'T get along. But Luna keep calm just ignore him and his actions they have no actual meaning just like every other time someone as tried this...but he has tried harder then the others...Sneakily I took a peek over in Cross's direction but looked away just as quickly when he turned his head to the side acting as though I hadn't done anything.
"I know, you haven't seen this town before and there are plenty of different shops that you might enjoy so why don't we take you for a tour its just a few minuets away so it won't take that long either."
"Not a chance in your life Tea-boy"
"Waaaa, your two are going out on a double date?" The instant those words left that persons mouth Aura and I spun aground glaring daggers at the bystander that had simple said the wrong thing.
"Shut up Evan!"
"No way in hell would I go on a date with someone like him!"
"I wouldn't go anywhere with him!"
I can't believe he would suggest that! There is no way we would do anything like that least of all with people like them.
"No way! I think that its a great idea! In fact I insist that you go!"
"Not a chance"
"If you don't I'll tell Ekon that you two are over working yourselves~" He said grinning like a mad man knowing that there was no way we could say no to a threat like that.
"That's a cheap shot!"
"Completely unfair!"
"And that's why I did it. You two are always working hard and Ekon hates it when you try over working yourselves that is part of the reason he sent you here because he knew that it would be less work then what you were doing back on Alskar. But if he hears that you are overworking yourself more then what you were before then he will be upset and you don't want that. So go out and take a break for the next few days to rest while we wait for word from him."
"Not happening"
"So you want him find out that you have been overworking?"
"..." Aura staggered backwards at the silent threat but quickly regained her balance growling. "Fine! I'll go to that blasted down! But it is definitely NOT some bloody date!"
"I don't have much of a choice either I don't really want to hear father's lecturer on how we are supposed to relax more."
"Well then it's all set! , General Cross; please make sure these two stay out of trouble and have fun on your date!~"
"It is not a date!"
