Rosario to vampire Time, Place Destiny! ch 25 Waiting to die part 5. Tests, and Eve's arrival.
Kurumu felt the gag get ripped from her mouth and blind fold get pulled away from her eyes. The succubus found herself in a small room upon which sat three beautiful necklace's. Beside the table beside stood a man dressed in a brown robe.
"Who are you?" Kurumu asked.
The man in the brown robe didn't answer her question instead said a single word.
"Choose a neckless." He said simply.
"Choose a neckless? What do you mean? There has to be- AH!" Kurumu gave sharp gasp as the small room faded from her sight and she found herself in a dark room devoid of all light and sound.
A small girl with blue hair a pair of bat like wings, tail and claws sat cross legged on the floor in front of her.
The little succubus looked up at Kurumu with a look of adoration in her blue eyes.
"Mother…Hear me." She said though her words were simple and few they carried with it a sense of authority in it that Kurumu had never felt before.
"Who are you?" Kurumu asked feeling afraid of the little succubus in front of her.
"Mother I am the thing that you have wanted the most….Something that only father your mate of fate could give to you….You are my mother and Tsukune is my father and four of us will be happy together…..Mother I am your daughter…Listen to me….Just listen to my voice and do what I say and all will be well….You must not fail this test…You must not."
"Hold on a minute…." Kurumu brought both of her hands infront of her chest in an angry geaster.
"You expect me to believe that you are my daughter? I doubt that I may be pregnant but something like this can not happen no way now how!" Kurumu turned away from the little succubus only to find much to her annoyance the little girl was sitting at her feet as soon as she did so once more. The little girl crawled forward and clung to Kurumu's feet still having the happy smile on her face.
"Mother hold me close….You don't have to understand this just hold me close…..Please that's all I ask." The little succubus said with a hint of pleading in her voice.
'Hummm…No way….This little girl could not be my daughter…I probably fell asleep or something a few minutes ago and this is all a really weird dream….Yes that's it. Oh well if this is just a dream then I guess it couldn't hurt if I reach down and hold her…..Could it? After all it'll only be a matter of time before I get to hold my own baby daughter for real.' Kurumu thought happily as she reached down and picked up the little girl in her arms and held her close to her.
A feeling of warmth and great joy began enter the succubus as a few tears of happiness leaked down her cheeks.
"Yes mother in a few months our bond will grow stronger…and then you will get to hold me for real….I am what you have always wanted accept me and love me…I am fathers gift to you and your bond will also grow stronger with another as well." The little succubus cooed happily into Kurumu' ear, as Kurumu closed her eyes and simply let herself bask in the warmth that flooded her being.
"Mother listen to me pick the black beads that are around the priests neck." The little girl whispered. Hearing that Kurumu's eyes shot open as her reached forward and grabbed the group of black beads around the priests neck pulling them off.
"Oh ummmm…..Sorry I must have dozed off….."She said quickly trying to cover up her unusual behavior.
The man in the brown robe said nothing as another group of guards escorted Kurumu to another room.
Another priest sat at a table he drew something on a small pad of paper and put it away in his robes. He then held a deck of simple playing cards in his hand. Another two guards placed a large black screen in front of the priest and Kurumu keeping her from seeing him. The two of them placed Kurumu's arms through a pair of holes at the bottom of the screen.
"I am going to lay out a series of cards. I will pick a card and you will try to find the card I picked by running your hands over the cards. Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Joker, one, through ten. " He said simply.
Kurumu began to feel her eyes get heavy as she closed them only to once again see the cute little succubus in front of her in the dark room.
"Mother listen the goal of this is to try to get you to pick the right card. Now it will be hard considering you can't see where they are but I will help. The priest will lay out the cards in rows of six. Each row will have ten cards in it. Now remember this order. Pick the card that is the last one on the right in the top line closest to the priest. Then count to silently count to twenty during that time he will shuffle and deal the cards out again.
Then go down and pick the card that is on the first one on the left end of the second line nearest to the priest. Then count to twenty that will give him time to again shuffle and deal them out again. After that go to the next row after the second one, then pick the card that is the third one in the third line. Count to twenty and then go down to the fourth line. The card will be the sixth card that is on the fourth line." She said only for Kurumu's eyes to shoot open. Kurumu counted to twently then the priest finished laying out the multitude of cards on the table.
"Pick." The priest commanded.
Kurumu swallowed as she slowly ran her hands over the cards.
Kurumu quickly pointed to the last card on her right in the first row.
"That one."
The priest removed her hands and picked up the cards while Kurumu counted to twenty to herself. The priest layed the cards out again.
"Pick!" He commanded.
"Pick the first one on the left second row, then third card on the third line, then the sixth card on the fourth line." Kurumu muttered as she ran her fingers over the card until she came to the right one.
"That one."
The priest in the brown robe picked up the cards and shuffled them again.
Kurumu quickly waved her hands in front of her or as well as she could with them in the holders.
"What was that you just said?" He asked.
"Oh its nothing…..Nothing at all..Just thinking out loud….."
The priest ignored Kurumu's comment as he began to shuffle the cards inside his robe only to quickly deal out the cards again as Kurumu silently counted to twenty.
"It's the one first one on the left second line." Kurumu said quickly before she could forget the information. The priest then gathered up the cards and began to deal them out again.
"It's the third one in the row in the third line." Kurumu said quickly as the priest finished laying them out on the table. Only hearing Kurumu's answer he quickly gathered them up again and began to shuffle and deal them out again.
Once he finished. Kurumu quickly said.
"It's the sixth one in the row on the fourth line."
The priest gathered up the cards and pulled out the pad of paper and looked at it a confused look on his face.
Another group of guards then escorted Kurumu back to the throne room.
"Good…..She passed." The leader of the succubi sighed, as she, Ageha and the girls watched from a small tv which had been brought in.
"How did the boob monster do that?" Yukari wondered, considering Kurumu couldn't have seen the cards so she could not have counted them even if she knew how which she didn't.
Kurumu was brought in and quickly kneeled at the throne.
"Your lusciousness, if I may ask what was that for?" Kurumu asked as she bowed.
The Holy mother looked at Kurumu a smile on her withered face but gave no reply.
"Good….I am happy….Oh dear this is going to hurt." She said as she looked over to a window only to see it shatter into hundreds of pieces as the nude form of Eve rival of Lilith came crashing through the window and hit the aged Holy mother successor to Lilith, full force in the chest slamming her into the wall.
