Untouched.

The air free from the smell of ash. Neither the three of us nor the two at the altar moved or said anything.

"I knew what you wanted to do, though I didn't expect you to listen to her child" Index, with a motherly yet also fatherly vice full of understanding said to the red head "I -we- feel sorry for taking away that gift of yours."

The addressed priest stared in puzzlement before his eyes went wide and he tried to use his magic – none came. His eyes shot to Index.

"I knew which was the element you hailed, therefore I erased all of it – at least the knowledge – however I didn't erase what was needed to fuel it." the Index-look-alike turned her gaze away from the cowering priest, not watching him fall to his knees with disbelieve shimmering in his eyes.

"I think you are now aware what I -we- am and what my -our- intention is." the blond didn't say anything, her eyes void of emotions – unclear if she was still mentally present – I on the other hand was dumbfounded – and the grimoire Index wouldn't stop making her point clear.

"Idol Theory, that from which the religions receive their strength on, does not apply to us -me- since knowledge and believe go hand in hand through the eras therefore creating a portion of one of the four great entities inside and outside of the worlds within our child's body and mind.

"But once the knowledge you hailed to and relied on perishes, so will I-we- and grant this loved unloved child her dearest wish." her eyes went to Kanzaki, a smile adoring her lips "She -Index- misses you, we -I- will send you to her so that you will be reunited" she said disappearing.

What the-! The not Index then reappeared in front of the saint, kissed her cheek and "Please help this child -us- find herself."and made her disappear.

I heard the clacking of shoes only to- …

…...

Face to face with one of the least likely things I wanted to meet. A tall person transparent but clearly of substance floated with it's halo above the ground. The scenery changed from the church to a field of flowers though I could still make out the other reality.

"Aiwass" I heard the not Index saying as she too was in this place.

"I heard that something interesting was occurring, though I'm more than sure that you haven't intended to for this by to hear our conversation." that bastards overlapping voice said, making my head hurt.

The not-Index however was uninfected "He should listen, after all every story -even such a mundane one – needs a witness." she said smiling at me.

"Mundane you say?"

"Indeed, why don't you listen?"

And the scenery changed back.

… … … …...

-see an escaping Archbishop. I catapulted myself right in front of her screaming "You're not getting off that easily!"

"He's right you have no false means of aggression anymore" We looked at Index "I know that our child tends to sulk from time to time so let me erase the knowledge of that false knowledge in an hour or two."

I stared blankly at her Did she just proclaim to erase magic? And wait didn't I forget something pretty important -let's say approximately 3 paragraphs up there- ?

"Don't kid with me!" the blond screamed "Do you even know what it means to erase magic from existence?! Are you even aware of the dangers?!"

The not-Index looked wryly at us -all of us- before turning back to the wall she appeared from. She sighed while the tension grew higher. Then her lips moved.

"Judgment Day won't come for the next few ten thousand years and Aleister just promised me that he'd stop his unnecessary experiments and that he will amend for his wrongs to you"all fight seemed to vanish in Laura Stuart before her body started to age.

"You shouldn't worry about a future you will have no part in, but stay and enjoy the present without relying on that ugly farce." She said to the crumbling and now significantly older appearing Archbishop. Her blond hair turned as gray as her skin – though her beauty strangely remained unscratched Why I thinks so is pretty much beyond me.

And even then the non-Index told her with a smile and kindness"You look far more beautiful like that without hiding yourself, mother."
