"Look, Arisa-sama has returned!" said one of the priest in the church
'Tch, he found me'
"Hello, Shion…" she was putting on a fake smile.
"Arisa-sama how was the Order? Is it fun? How long will you stay? Will you help me heal the villagers? Are you hurt on your missions? Is the place huge?
Questions keep on coming to her like there was no end to it. Shion is Arisa's caretaker. He's a few years older than him. He had blue eyes and his hair is as black as night. He had a fun personality, sometimes he's just a crybaby. But he's cheerful and kind. He's always there when Arisa needed him and vice versa.
"Etoo, Shion-san… I can't hear you clearly if you shoved your questions at the same time. Let's see… Ok I guess, Yes, a week, Yes, No, No" She answered.
"Wow. Amazing as usual Arisa-sama!" He answered.
Another person came in bow deeply before Arisa.
"Arisa-sama… welcome home."
"Thank you. Ehmm, Pope Secretary. Sorry, I keep on forgetting your new name. It's hard to remember. Why can't you use the old one instead?"
"It's Faust. You were the one who named me Arisa-sama. Please let me escort you to your room."
He was tall and he wears rectangle glasses. His face is pretty decent. He has beautiful green eyes, much more beautiful than Lavi's. He had golden hair. From the looks of it you know that he's a perfectionist. He had done his job in excellent manners. Thus, he makes the Pope proud to have such an amazing worker like him.
"I did? Well, there's no need. I want to take a short walk around the Vatican"
Faust and Shion glanced at each other.
"Then let me escort you Arisa-sama…"
"No, I will escort her Faust; go back to your duties."
"I could say the same thing about you, Shion."
Both of them exchange stares. Causing the electricity to spark on each other eyes.
She sighed. "Both of you can escort me you know."
"Of course Arisa-sama." Both of them said at the same time.
She giggled. 'Both of them remind me of Allen and Kanda.'
Meanwhile at the order…
"No, it's not what you think it is…" Allen was still defending for his innocence. He hasn't tossed out the female exorcist uniform. He sit's on the floor, pulling the skirt over and over. He felt embarrassed.
"To think that Allen abducts Arisa just so he can wear a skirt." Said Lavi. His said it like he doesn't mean it, but still, it was pretty deep.
*STAB* the arrow with the word skirt stab Allen in the heart.
"It's really disgusting. All that I thought about Allen flies out the window." Komui said
*STAB* another arrow with the word disgusting stab Allen in the heart. Twice.
"To think that Allen would wear a female exorcist's uniform… you could just say so Allen…" said Lenalee.
*STAB* another arrow with the word cross-dress stab him in the heart. Thrice as hard.
"Allen-kun?" Allen didn't say anything.
Allen took a very, very deep breath.
And he screamed.
"DAKARA, IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS!"
…
Her shadow looming over his body on the floor.
"Allen-kun… What if we changed place for a while?" said Arisa.
"What are you talking about?"Allen asked
"This is what I'm talking about." She went to her wardrobe, taking one pair of cloth. A skirt.
"What do you want me to do with a skirt?"
She grinned. "To test your waist size of course."
"Is it the punishment for stealing your first kiss?"
"What do you think? You think of this as a punishment? Believe me, I can do much worse."
He certainly didn't want to wear that.
"Okotowari shimasu." (I refuse) Allen replied
"Pretty please… This way, we're even you know." She begged.
"Why do you want me to wear your skirt anyway?"
"I have… some errands."
He knows that she's lying.
"You don't run errands."
She sighed. "Look Allen, the more time we waste here, the more time will you spend to wear the cursed skirt."
He gulped.
"But, it's too short! What if others notice? It will be embarrassing!"
"It's fine, they will understand anyway." She shoves Allen's face with the skirt she holds.
"Pleaseee…"
…
"And that's what truly happened! She even gave me her coat, her jacket, and a wig! Along with her ribbon!"
"Well, it's interesting to see Allen in a skirt." The red-headed man commented.
"Shut up, stupid usagi."
"Did she tell you where she went?"Komui asked
"She did leave a note on her desk."
They all went out from Komui's office and went into Arisa's room. A note was left behind on her clean wooden desk. It said.
I'm going home.
Komui sweat dropped.
"NOOOOO ARISA-SAMA! PLEASE RETURNNNN!" Komui screamed.
…
She went into the garden to visit her roses. She bent down to smell the roses.
She sneezed.
'Am I allergic to roses now?'
…
"She left! How could she?" Lavi screamed
…
She sneezed 'Someone must be talking behind my back right now'
…
"That woman…" Kanda said in annoyance
…
She sneezed again
…
"To think that she left the Order so soon, what could've happen?" Lenalee said breaking the tense atmosphere.
Allen puts his fingers up to his lips "Maybe it's because…"he remembered the last incident at the cafeteria.
"We have to hurry!"
"What do you mean?" said Komui
"She's at the Vatican right now!"
…
"Did you catch a cold Arisa-sama?" asked Shion. Her current condition worries him. It shows on his voice.
"I don't think so… someone must be talking about me."
Faust walks to Arisa and put his blazers around her.
"We cannot have the Pope's treasure to get a cold, can't we?"
"Stop it Faust, I'm a human being not an object. But thank you for your concern."
"My apologies, it will never happen again." He bows before her again.
Shion poke Faust arm and giving him a 'You should know better!' glare and he returns it with 'Sorry it slips' glare. Either way, they are glaring again. And both of them turn their head to opposite sides.
"Lets go…" she said.
"Let me help you Arisa-sama." Shion offered his hand so that Arisa can stand.
"Thank you Shion, I appreciate it." She smiled back at him. It's a sincere smile.
…
"How do you know that she's in Vatican right now, Allen?" Komui asked.
"She said she was going home right? The only place she would call home beside the order is the Vatican! Please send me there to retrieve her Komui." Allen pleaded.
"Your reason?"
"I believe she went home because of my fault. And I'm taking responsibilities for it."
"Very well Allen. Lavi, Bookman, Kanda and Lenalee will follow as well. Your mission: bring Arisa back to the Order. Without force if you can."
"HAI!"
