Shanon's POV

"What's this?" I asked Kuromi while pointing at what she was carrying.

She was carrying a box that look like it had a small pizza in it. Smirking, Kuromi put the pizza box thing down on the table.

"Er… answer my question please?" I awkwardly asked.

Kuromi smirked again then she pointed to the box. "Inside this box is something special." She grinned evilly.

"I don't think you're getting the point of my question, Kuri-chan," I told her getting the sweat drop.

Her grin became more evil. "For you in general, you're either a fail or a win."

I blinked. "What are you talking about?"

"Think about it. It's a game. People back home play this game a ton because it's a good time passer. For you, you could either fail at it or be awesome at it."

"Ok. Then I'm stupid."

"LIKE SHIT YOU ARE!" Kuromi got the anger mark.

I held up my arms in surrender. "Geez! That's not a very nice word!"

"Oh shut up. Everyone around you swears to. Get used to it, Kitty Girl," she muttered rolling her eyes.

My cat ears perked up and I grinned childishly. "Imma kitty!" I squealed happily.

Kuromi whacked the back of my head and I rubbed the bump that had appeared. I whimpered.

"ANYWAYS," she started. "This is a chess board."

"OOOOOHHHHHHH! THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!" My light bulb turned on.

"You my good lady, are the smartest person I have ever met." Yet another roll of her eyes.

I smiled cheesily. "Thank you!"

"Whatever, let's play!" Kuromi exclaimed opening the pizza box thing.

She laid out the chess board and placed the pieces in their spots. Once she was done, we sat down.

"This is great n' all, but… how do you play?" I asked innocently.

Her mouth dropped down all the way to the floor. "Are you SERIOUS?"

"Yes. No one ever taught me. I just watched them play." :3

Kuromi face palmed. "I should have known." She groaned annoyed. "Ok. This is how you play."

[Owlies note: let me just say, I don't want to go into the whole description of how to play chess. It's too long to type….]

I nodded my head once I understood.

"I'll go on easy on you seeing as you're a beginner," Kuromi smirked.

"Okee dokee!"

We began playing. Since Kuromi was white, she went first. She moved a pawn to spaces up. I used my knight and made that little L thingy. Well, let me just say the outcome was terrible for me. In under a minute I had lost more than half of my pieces when I had only captured one of Kuromis.

"Are you really going easy on me?" I asked when I only had a pawn and my king left.

She smirked. "Yes Shanon. This is how I play when I go against little kindergarteners who stalemate me."

I blinked. "THIS GAME IS STUPID AND IT'S NOT EVEN FUN!" I growled slamming my fist on the table and stomping away.

"Don't be a sore loser!" Kuromi called after me.

"CHESS IS THE STUPIDEST GAME INVENTED," I hissed back.

Laughing, she grabbed my collar. "Don't leave yet. We still gotta go to school. Just because it's a late start today, doesn't mean you can ditch. From everyone, you're the least person anyone expects to ditch."

I hissed and rolled up my sleeves angrily like I was going to punch someone. "Fine!" I spat.

"Ego problems," Kuromi laughed.

"That's your problem."

"It's obviously yours since you're the one angry about losing." She stuck her tongue out.

I huffed. "Whatever. Let's go."

XXX

It was break time and in her liberty, Kuromi decided to drag me to the mission board.

"But I dun wanna!" I whined the whole time.

"Stop whining! You get to see if your senses are still working or if you lost it during the time you just sat down and watch TV for a long time!" Kuromi scoffed.

I whined some more. "I'll whine as much as I want! Plus, I'm not in the mood!"

"Well that's your problem because I'll be glad to switch places with you. Go ahead Shan, be the weapon."

"Uuuughhhh!" I moaned.

Finally after my miraculous attempt to escape a few times, I was dragged there. Death gripping my arm tightly, Kuromi looked for a mission.

"Here. This one seems interesting. There's been a sighting of two pre-kishins around Auburn. It seems they are very human-like and are traveling with three humans in a white Chrysler. Er… they've been circling around the city for at least half an hour now…"

"I DUN WANNA! I HATE AUBURN!" I growled.

"Why?" Kuromi asked me.

"Remember when we went there? Our taxi broke down and we stayed there for hours!"

"Shanon…. That never happened."

"O.O Oh. Well I must have been dreaming…" I scratched the back of my head awkwardly with my free hand."

"Whatever. Let's get Kid to join us."

"Why not Tsuki?"

"Cuz this story has to many OC's in the chapters T.T"

"Ya but this chapter needs to have Tsuki in it."

At that moment, Soul walked over. "You guys looking for Tsuki?" he asked cooly.

"Not really we were just talking about here," Kuromi replied.

Soul shrugged. "Last I heard, she was on a mission near Concord in California. They say that there were two human-like pre-kishins there who were driving with three other humans."

"Hey! This mission says almost the same thing!" I gasped.

"Then I guess it's serious." Soul blinked. "Well, catcha later," he waved walking off.

I grinned. "We are totally doing this mission."

"You're the one who whined about it," Kuromi retorted.

I shrugged and handed the paper to the receptionist who scanned it.

"My, I heard this mission would be a tough one," she gasped.

"What? Why?" Kuromi asked suspiciously.

The receptionist looked up. "Because apparently, they're so human-like, you couldn't tell which one was the actually pre-kishin. And plus, I heard that they looked like two kids from here."

I nodded. "I wonder who," I mumbled walking away.

XXX

Sara's POV

Concord, California. This was the place Tsuki and I were sent to for a mission. Along with with us, we brought Ariel and Shiroi because we were told this mission would be dangerous and with our best bet, a violent meister with a weapon who could control her would be best for it.

"Why are we here anyway?" Ariel asked annoyed at the fact that we weren't doing anything.

"Dude, shut up. We need to wait here cuz I have a plan. But first, can you… wait. Can you even sense souls?" I asked.

"Nope. Sorry, no can do," she said less annoyed.

"Damn it. What are we going to do? We need to know where those two pre-kishins are!" I hissed.

"Let's go scout around and kill an evil looking deformed person!" Ariel suggested grinning evilly.

"No!" Tsuki exclaimed in weapon form. "We can't just storm out there and kill random monsterous people!"

"She's right, Ariel," I commented. "And anyways, the pre-kishin is supposed to look so human-like."

"Damn it why'd you drag me here then?"

"Because we need your help. Why else would I ask you to tag along?" I snorted.

There were footsteps behind us. I gulped. Damn it this bush was a horrible place to hide.

"Uhm… Why are you hiding in a bush while holding a some sort of weapon?"

Getting the sweat drop, I turned around and saw a small girl about the age of 10. She had black hair that looked brown in the sunlight. Her eyes were an amberish color of brown and she wore a light blue San Francisco sweatshirt with blue jeans. The girl tilted her head to a slight angle in confusion.

"Cuz we're magical fairies…" I awkwardly said waving my fingers.

"Damn it Sara, that's stupid!" Ariel hissed next to me.

The girl looked at her. "That's not a very nice word."

I blinked confused. "Where have I heard that before? …Oh yes. Shanon."

"Are you from Death City?" she asked.

Ariel gave me a warning glance but slightly, I nodded.

"OMG REALLY? I TOTALLY WANNA GO THERE! :D" The girl immediately grinned. Then she waved at us. "Haii! My name is Chelsea! Or sometimes people call me Chezle or Chesla. You can call me any variation to my name. It doesn't really matter! Wait… But OMG… I know youuu!

Ariel and I looked at each other with the sweat drop and the dark lines.

"Why does this eight year old remind me so much of Shanon?" Ariel asked annoyed.

"I'M NOT EIGHT! I'll have you know that I am 12 years old!"

"B…But you're so short," I said confused.

"I'M. NOT. SHORT!" she screamed angrily. She huffed. "Whatever. I need to go now. We're going to the snow! So uhm… bye."

She scurried off and left us in the bushes awkwardly.

"Well that was… weird…" I murmured.

Ariel nodded in agreement.

"I have a feeling that we haven't seen the last of her…" Shiroi said.

"What? You suggesting we stalk that kid?" Ariel asked.

Shiroi popped his head out and shook it. "I'm just saying. But sure, if you want to."

"LIKE HELL I DO!" she growled back.

"Have you ever considered that fact that she was completely unafraid when Ariel looked at her? Any average person would at least get the creeps when she glares at you. Besides that, she was also quite calm when she noticed us in weapon form. What does that tell you?" Tsuki asked.

I snorted. "You sound so different. Like some sort of philosopher! That's something Maka or Kid would say. Hah, I finally saw the day where you actually made sense for once!"

Tsuki growled and her head popped out. "Damn it! Just at least try to understand what I'm saying!"

Shiroi sighed in weapon form. "Ok. So what you're saying is that that Chezle person as she says, is the pre-kishin?"

"Yes!"

"Well then we might as well follow here," Ariel said rolling her eyes.

"That's the point I've been trying to make the whole time!" Tsuki mumbled.

XXX

Chelsea's POV (Owlie: shut up april T.T I kno what ur thinking and im making this POV anyways)

Somehow, I had a feeling I knew those people. Something about Death City… I couldn't place my hand on it but I somehow knew them.

Shrugging, I grabbed my dad's Droid and went on youtube. The first thing I saw was "Sealand National Anthem." Sealand? That can't be a country. It's just like a raft about the size of a basketball court. With a puny population O.O Why was that a country?

"IS SEALAND A COUNTRY?" I asked my parents.

"What's Sealand?" was their only reply.

I face palmed myself. No. Of course they didn't know. This was all from another one of my anime fantasies. But whatever, I clicked on it and watched it.

(Owlie: this was really random. I just had to put it out there :3)

XXX

Shanon's POV

We finally arrived in Auburn, California. Already, I hated that place because our taxi broke down.

"AHA! I KNEW IT! THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE!" I growled.

Kuromi snorted. "You're the one who wanted to go last minute."

"Oh calm down," Liz said. "It's not that bad."

"Ya. It's not bad. IT'S TERRIBLE!"

"Never mind that. Let's just go and find the pre-kishins," Kid said. "Liz. Patty."

"YUP!" Patty cheered.

The twin guns transformed and so did Kuromi.

"Right so… remind me. Where are they supposed to be...?" I asked Kid.

He looked around scanning the place. "They're supposed to be driving in circles," he said.

"If they're driving in circles, I think we have our guy," I said pointing to a car that was randomly driving in circles."

Kid got the sweat drop thing. "This wasn't supposed to be that easy," he sighed.

We got up from where we were hiding and cautiously walked to the car.

"DAMN IT ARIEL! YOU CAN'T DRIVE!"

I perked my ears up. Ariel? Was she here too?

All of a sudden, the car stopped and Tsuki came out looking very dizzy. Well, you could tell because she collapsed to the ground.

"I think I need another explanation," I said getting the sweat drop and dark lines.

Kid got the same. "I think I might need one as well…" -_-'

"HEY GUYS!" Sara called to us once she got out and regained consciousness after collapsing.

Kid nodded in greeting. "What are you guys doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in Concord?" he asked.

Sara grunted. "Ya well… We think we saw one of the pre-kishins and decided to follow her here. At the moment, we kinda lost her…"

"OMG really? :D" I grinned. "How does she look like?"

A pause. Sara blinked awkwardly. "In a sense, she kinda looked like you."

"W- WHAT?" Biggest shock of the day.

Kuromi looked at her questioningly. "How?"

"The kid's name is Chelsea. She says people call her many variations to her name. She didn't exactly look like Shanon considering her black hair and brown eyes which is the opposite of Shanon. But here personality was like hers. And uh… she got mad at us when I called her short…."

Kuromi laughed. "Hah. I'd like to see that short stuff!"

Wait. Let me just say we were out in the open at a gas station, holding weapons.

"FREEEEEEEEEEEEDOM!" we heard.

Spinning around, we saw the girl that Sara described. She was… pretty short. Well, she was stretching and she looked pretty happy. Then this girl who was also pretty short got out and clung unto the Chelsea persons arm. She looked a lot like Tsuki.

"STOP CLINGING ONTO ME WOMAN!" Chelsea growled.

The Tsuki replica ignored the protest. "I gotta go pee!" she said.

"THEN LET GO OF ME!"

"No!"

"Then I'm not going to the bathroom!"

"Fine! I'll find it myself."

Strangely, she went the opposite direction of the bathroom which we were standing near.

"… April. That bathrooms that way…" Chelsea pointed to the bathroom. She turned that way and she must have seen us because she grinned.

"OMG I KNOW THEM!" she squealed.

We all got the sweat drop thing.

"They… are the pre-kishins?" Ariel groaned.

"Do we really have to kill those idiots?" Liz asked in weapon form.

"No matter how idiotic," Kid replied.

Instead of going to them, the two weirdoes' came to us. Chelsea and April were about to go kick open the bathroom but Kid stopped them.

"Hold it right there," he ordered pointing Liz and Patty at their heads.

Chelsea smiled widely. "You know how to open the door? Gee! Thanks!" she exclaimed.

"No you idiot! You're the pre-kishins and we need to kill you!" Ariel growled.

"Way to make things a lot more easier," Sara retorted rolling her eyes.

April blinked confused and Chelsea tilted her head at a slight angle looking just as confused.

"What are you talking about? As far as I'm concerned, we haven't killed anyone and eaten their souls. And anyways! I would never do that since I'm Catholic!" April held her thumbs up.

Chelsea whacked her. "We get it April. You're Catholic proud," she sighed.

"MY NAME IS HEATHER!" April protested.

"YOUR. NAME. IS. NOT. HEATHER," Chelsea growled.

"Ok. Back up," I said. "What's going on?"

Kuromi transformed back into human. "Ya. What the hell is going on?" she asked.

Scratching the back of her head, Chelsea shrugged. "Honestly. I dunno."

"We should report this to Lord Death. I think he got this all mixed up," Tsuki said transforming back into a human.

(Owlie: lol sry for oh so many interruptions but. MWAHAHAHAHA I SHALL MAKE ME AND APRIL-

Appleblx: IM HEATHER!

Owlie: T.T stop it april T.T –ME AND APRIL EVIL!)

Kid nodded and walked to the nearest window and breathed into it. He wrote down the first two numbers but Chelsea stopped him. She was grinning evilly. Not like, me evilly, but really evilly.

"I don't think that's necessary," she said twisting his arm in a horribly painful way.

Kuromi and Tsuki grew wide eye but transformed back into weapon form.

"So you are pre-kishins?" I growled.

Chelsea licked her lips. "I could be. I could be not. We could be something much worse."

(Owlie: NOT A CROSSOVER NOT A CROSSOVER NOT A CROSSOVER NOT A CROSSOVER CUZ WHAT THEY ARE ARE ACTUALLY POSSIBLE IN RL CUZ I LOOKED IT UP IN A DICTIONARY! And once again, shut up April T.T fma is totally cool. Don't "oh wow" me!)

"A witch?" Ariel suggested.

T.T "You wouldn't know." Her annoyed expression turned into her once again evil grin as she looked at Kuromi , Tsuki, Sara, and I. "But they would."

Kid and Ariel looked at us curiously.

"STOP WITH THE HINTS AND RIDDLES! JUST GET TO THE POINT!" I hissed really annoyed. No one but Ariel ever gets to the point!

The two girls chuckled with their evil grins. "Isn't it obvious? You Shanon, you should know quite well."

I huffed angrily but Kid calmed me down with a warning glance.

"She may know, but why don't you tell us all through your own mouth," he said calmly.

Chelsea started laughing evilly. She touched her left palm with tip of her right hands fingers. It sparked red and then a tattoo appeared on it. My eyes widened as I saw what it was. A dragon trying to bite its tail and in the middle of the circle it made was… it was… that familiar design of triangles…

More evil laughs came from the two girls and I saw it was because Sara was also looking at her wide eyed.

"Get it now?" Chelsea grinned wickedly.

Kid and Ariel looked intently at the tattoo.

"What is it?" Kid asked. "It's asymmetrical garbage!"

In unison, Sara and I replied. "It's an ouroboros tattoo."

I gulped. "I see. You're a homunculus."

"Took you long enough," April scoffed.

"I DON'T GET IT," Ariel exclaimed angrily. "Can we just go and kill them?"

She was about to charge and fight but Sara roughly grabbed her arm. "You can't kill a homunculus. They're immortal," she hissed.

"Well I'm gunna kick their immortal asses!" Ariel proclaimed.

Sara shook her head. "They're deadly and could kill you right where you're standing." Then she looked at the homunculus. "Usually homunculi are named after sins. What are your real names?" Sara hissed.

Chelsea evil grinned again. "This is our real names. Before we died," she said matter-of-factly.

"But if you need to know. I am Malice," April said.

"And I'm Acedia."

"Uh… what's acedia?" I asked confused.

Tsuki popped her head out of weapon form and smiled. "It's like being lazy."

Ariel smirked. "We got the explanations out of the way. Let's go and kill them."

I closed my eyes looking all bored and shrugged. "This better not be a death trap."

"Right," Kid said looking his usual serious self.

"Ariel and I'll take Malice. Shan, you and Kid can have Acedia," Sara said.

I nodded. I think that maybe because Acedia and I were in a way, very similar she made me fight her. Probably because I would know more on how to beat her. But if I was Acedia and Tsuki was Malice, wouldn't I be fighting the stronger one? (Owlie: in rl im seriously stronger)

In a split second, I saw the Acedia had duplicated herself and had grown to the size of an average adult. Kid shot multiple bullets at her but nothing happened.

"That tickles!" Acedia laughed evilly.

I swung the halberd at her but a clone punched me from behind. Kid shot a few more bullets but gave up realizing that it had no effect.

"SOUL RESONANCE!" Kid, Liz, and Patty screamed.

They can do that. I was still going pretty well. At least now, Kids bullets actually did damage. Some of the clones fell and disappeared. But now had taken their place! Everywhere I looked was swarmed with Acedias.

I swing but missed. Kid shot and the clone behind me disappeared. I spun the halberd and then jabbed it at the nearest clone. Its' head was decapitated. But still there was more. Half of the clones charged at Kid and toppled him over but with a flash of pink light, he disintegrated them all. That left me. I held Kuromi at the bottom of the handle and spun around rapidly. One by one, I decapitated the heads of the Acedia clones. Swing, chop, swing, miss, swing. It didn't matter to me what I hit, as long as they didn't touch me.

"Damn it Shanon. They're too many! Let's so a soul resonance!" Kuromi hissed in weapon form.

I nodded and smirked. "Wait," I said. Quickly, I put on my gloves. "Now. LIGHTNING RESONANCE!" Kuromi and I screamed in unison.

With a flash of blue, the halberd had turned into a double bladed scythe and lightning crackled from the blade.

"Anyone who dares touch my blade will be electrocuted," I smirked.

Disregarding what I just said, the clones charged at me again. I swung and spun around. Lightning crackled. Multiple screams of the same voice. Debris of the disintegrating bodies. A large fist punched itself into my back. I heard a crunch. There was another scream and I somehow flew up and then fell down. Everything became a blur. The world around me was spinning rapidly. Every muscle in my body ached as I tried to get up. More large fists started punching me. I scream in pain. Another crackle. What was it? I saw a blur of golden yellow. It was lightning. Lightning crackled around me. Suddenly, my vision became clear. Somehow, I managed to use alchemy in my moment of pain. All the clones that had attacked my lay sprawled across the ground twitching with spasms' as lightning coursed through their bodies. I sat up despite the protest of my body. My spine hurt dearly, my head was throbbing, and it took a lot out of my not to pass out.

XXX

Kid' POV

Thanks to Shanon, most of the Acedia clones stopped reappearing. But I still had to fight my share. Liz and Patty had returned to normal guns. There were two more Acedias. The real one and the clone. I sensed their souls. The real Acedia was the one on the left. I pointed my guns at her and fired rapidly. They grazed her skin but didn't do much damage. She just stood there with that evil grin on her face.

"We'll save this battle for later, shall we? This is gathering to much attention." With that word, she just disappeared.

I blinked. What just happened? I was about to go help Ariel and Sara but I saw Shanon lying on the ground looking half dead.

"Shanon!" I exclaimed. Panicking, I ran to her to see if she was still alive. "Are you ok?" I asked.

She moaned and Kuromi transformed back along with Liz and Patty.

"We should get her to the doctors," Kuromi informed me.

I looked at her. "Is it that serious?" I asked.

Kuromi just shrugged. "I dunno. But it looks painful."

XXX

Sara's POV

(Owlie: SO MANY FIGHT SCENES DX MY BRAINS GETTING FRIED!)

Malice raised her hand in the air and with a spark of red, a knife appeared.

"Who wants to be stabbed in the torso first?" she asked evilly licking her lips.

"Damn Tsuki. She's just like you," Ariel laughed.

"HEY!" Tsuki exclaimed angrily in weapon form.

"Whatever. Let's go," I said.

I charged and stabbed the dagger at Malice. She swiftly sidestepped and I lost my balance. Ariel laughed. But Malice charged at her and stabbed her arm.

"Tch…" Ariel growled.

She swung her scythe at Malice. Malice tried backing away but Ariel was persistent and kept swinging. I decided to get off the ground and just help out. But really… I don't think there was much I could do. Ariel was stabbing and slicing at Malice rapidly. She was really enjoying herself. The homunculus had dropped her knife and couldn't actually get another weapon because Ariel was literally beating the SHIT out of her!

"DAMN IT! STOP. MOVING. YOU. BITCH!" Malice screamed. (Owlie: lol envy moment)

Of course, Ariel didn't stop. But Malice stopped. Instead, of doing anything, she just disappeared. Just like that.

"What the hell?" I asked. Ariel just shrugged.

Tsuki and Shiroi transformed back into humans.

"Shanon!" Tsuki exclaimed. She ran over to where Shanon and Kid were fighting.

I look there and saw Shanon on the ground looking half dead with Kid and Kuromi looking down at her pathetically hopeless. Ariel and I ran over to see what happened.

"Geez," Ariel whispered. "Is she… dead?"

Kid shook his head. "She just passed out. I don't think it's anything to serious."

To make things in a lighter mood, I scoffed. "So Kitty Girl's the weakest out of all us meisters?"

Ariel tried not to laugh. Kid just shrugged. "Who knows what happened? I wasn't looking."

"Wait. I think I know what might wake her up," Kuromi grinned evilly. She lightly shoved Shanon. "There's a cat over there!"

Shanon just groaned. "Give me five minutes…." Then he became limp and snored lightly.

Kuromi started laughing. "She's fine."

"So what now?" Ariel asked. "We just go back?"

Kid nodded. "It seems like that's the only thing we can do considering the fact that those two homunculus just disappeared like that."

XXX

Kid's POV

While Kuromi brought Shanon to the doctors, Sara and I went to report our mission to my father.

"YO! YO! YO! HOWYA DOIN?" my father greeted.

Sara smirked but I just nodded. "It seems we have failed out mission," I told him.

"Oh? What happened?" he asked curiously.

"It turns out the two kishins were actually homunculi. We fought them but when they started losing, they just well… disappeared!" Sara said.

My father nodded. "So we have new enemies?" he asked.

Sara shook her head. "I think that we just happened to cross their paths."

"I see. Well for now, just relax. I'll deal with it."

We nodded and then headed out.

"Why?" I asked Sara once we were outside.

She looked at me confused. "Why what?"

"Why are there homunculus here?"

Sara shrugged. "I really don't know. Those monsters don't belong in this part of the world. Just in Germany… or the world of alchemy," she replied.

"I see…"

XXX

[CENSORED]'s POV

Storm. Thunder storm. Lightning and rain rages around. Thunder booms up above. It's hard to see anything. The shallow waves lap against my legs roughly. There is a giant stone that seems to glow in front of my. It is dark and lightning and the stone is the only thing illuminating this world. My world. The world where it all began. Where my life started. A child sits alone on the stone. Her tears flowing as she weeps all alone. In the wind, her hair a dark brown color flows. It was strange. That child's hair is not supposed to be that shade of brown.

Slowly I walked in her direction. The wind and waves push me back. I struggled through. It was like a strong presence didn't want me to go to her. It wanted me to wait. Still, I slowly tried to walk to the crying child.

I managed to reach the stone. But my body ached. I was exhausted. The child was still crying.

"What's wrong, child?" I asked her.

She momentarily stopped to look up. Surprised she looked at me. The child looked at me confused.

"Who are you?" she asked me quietly.

I wasn't sure how I heard her, the wind howled and the thunder boomed but somehow, that tiny squeak reached me.

"My name is..."

Thunder boomed, lightning flashed, all at the same time. It washed away my name. She perked up her ears trying to hear but the enviroment didn't allow it.

"You're a lightning bird," she whispered in awe.

Lightning seemed to envelope me as I looked at her shocked. I had always thought I was human, but when she said that, it changed. The lightning had suspended me into a bird. A bird of lightning. I began a lightning bird.

Looking down at the water below me, I saw I was hovering. My body was that of a large golden bird with piercing yellow eyes.

Panicking, I tried flying toward the child but the wind went against my wishes and blew me away. What was happening?Where was I going. I squeezed my eyes tightly together. When I reopened them, I had fallen but the storm had slightly ceased. The glowing stone of white was far away and I felt like gravity had pinned me to the ground.

"It is not time yet..." something had whispered.

Shanon's POV

I woke up feeling PAIN. It was not very enjoyable because this pain involved the throbbing of my head, aching muscles, and a feeling that I may have fractured me spine.

"Ok. I have a feeling someone is near me so whoever it is, I would like to know what happened," I groaned.

The person next to me immediately laughed. It was Kuromi. I could totally tell. Slowly I opened my eyes and sure enough, it was here.

"Geez Kuri-chan! You stay near me so much it's like… puppy guarding!"

"That's your problem. You ok?"

"Ya I'm fine. Just the usual stuff that always happens to people when they're in the hospital," I replied rolling my eyes.

"What happened?" she asked me.

"The Acedia clones were punching me and somehow I killed most of them because I self consciously used alchemy. The End," I simply stated.

"Right…"

"Can you do something for me?" I smiled.

"Wadya want?" she growled.

I chuckled. "Can you give me a pegahorn?"

._. "No. I'll give you a pegawhore."

"IT'S PEGAHORN!"

"Pegawhore," she teased.

"Poop you. Like bird poop on Pelican Island. ALL HAIL THE TURLES BECAUSE IN TURLES WE TRUST!" I proclaimed randomly.

"….Ok Shanon I don't think you're ok. That was the most RANDOMEST thing that has ever come out of your mouth."

"PSSSHT! NOTHINGS TO RANDOM FOR ME!"

"Cuz you surpassed it all," she smiled evilly.

"Exactly!" I grinned.

Her smiled fell and her mouth dropped open.

"You're so strange!" she noogied my head.

"Thank you C: I've been working on it."
