Chapter 5: Visions

Unknown to Ranko, Weiss and Schwarz, four figures silently watched the fight between Ranko and Schuldig.

"We finally found her," said one with dark purple-blue hair.

"Do we have to do this? She has done a lot to us and she deserves to be happy," the one with dark blue-green hair said quietly.

"I know but we have to. She's our only hope," the first figure replied.

"I agree with Hell. We have to do this. Don't get me wrong. She's like a little sister to me and the only one to match my beauty but we have no choice," said the figure with blonde hair.

"Tot want to see Ranko-neechan," said the last figure. She had a whitish-aqua coloured hair and in her arm was a stuffed bunny.

"Come on. We better go before somebody noticed us," Hell announced.

Neu, Schoen and Tot nodded and they started walking away.

*********************************************

Schuldig stopped running when he thought he was in a safe enough distance from Abyssinian. He panted a bit and then he heard somebody behind him. He relaxed as he realised it was only Nagi.

~That went well~ he commented sarcastically.

Nagi snickered. "Yeah. Who would have thought you would be beaten by a girl."

Schuldig glared at the younger boy. "Shuddup."

They started walking back to the Schwarz house. When they arrived it was already night time. They opened the front door and heard a voice said, "How did it go?"

Nagi started snickering again.

Schuldig glared at the telekinetic. "We found the girl. She has the same ability as me." He didn't want to mention the fact that she was stronger than him.

"Good. I want you to keep an eye on her," Crawford ordered.

"Bradley," Schuldig drawled. "Aren't you going to tell us what this is all about? How the hell could she have telepathy? Rosenkruez burnt down remember? There shouldn't be another person with the kind of 'gifts' we have."

"Don't call me that," Crawford snapped. He then sighed, "I don't know, Schuldig. The vision didn't show much. All I saw was a girl with flaming red hair merging with a black panther. The image then changed into her fighting alongside us, Weiss and some other figures against a black figure. I couldn't see who the other figures are but I have a feeling they will come soon. The girl is the only one who can save us from destruction. That's the extent of my knowledge."

"Just fucking great," Schuldig said sarcastically. "That really helps. So basically you're saying that you have no idea except that if she dies then the world is doomed."

"If you put it bluntly. Yes. So I want you and Nagi to watch over her and be aware for the other figures that might come into play. Understood?"

Nagi and Schuldig nodded.

"Good. Oh and Nagi?"

"Yes, Crawford?"

"Do a background check on her."

Nagi blushed. "Uh, I can't do that."

"Why not?"

"We don't know her name."

Crawford stared at them. "You mean after meeting her you still don't know her name?"

Nagi blushed again. "She was with Weiss and she also wouldn't give us her name."

"Why didn't you probe her mind, Schuldig?" Crawford could feel a headache coming up.

"Mumble, mumble," Schuldig replied while trying to avoid Crawford's eyes.

"What? I can't hear you." Crawford raised his eyebrow at the sulking telepath.

"I can't probe her mind! There, happy?" Schuldig glared at him.

Crawford hid a smirk behind his hand. "You can't?"

"She has a strong mental shield. I couldn't break it," he grumbled.

"I see. Well, try and find out her name and then report back to me."

"Yes, sir!" Schuldig mock saluted.

Meanwhile, Nagi was having a hard time not to burst out laughing. It's not everyday the great telepath get totally humiliated by a girl. That was a once in a lifetime event but he had a feeling there will be more.

~It's not funny!~ Schuldig sent to him.

/Yes, it is/ he countered.

Schuldig growled in frustration and stomped to his room leaving the other two behind. /Just wait. I'll make her sorry for messing with me/ He smirked. He still could feel her soft lips on his. /She'll be mine/

Crawford and Nagi stared at the retreating telepath. Silence followed. "So where's Farfello?" Nagi asked trying to break the uncomfortable silence.

"He's in his room sleeping."

"I better check on him." Nagi started for Farfello's room.

"Don't bother," Crawford said. "He won't be awake for a while. Probably not until tomorrow morning."

Nagi nodded and then he remembered something. "Crawford?"

"Yes, Nagi?"

"I just remembered Balinese mentioned something about that girl being Abyssinian's sister."

Crawford looked at him surprised. "She's Aya's sister?" His shocked look turned into a thoughtful one. "Nagi, try looking up Abyssinian's files and see if you can find any information on her and then report to me."

Nagi nodded and went to his room. Inside his room he went to his laptop and started typing on his laptop as usual. He tried to look up the files on Abyssinian but he couldn't concentrate. His mind kept wandering back to the red haired girl.

~Well, well, well, it seems that our little bishonen is growing up~

/Stay out of my mind, Schuldig/

~But it's so interesting. You have a crush on the girl~

Nagi put up his mental shield and he could hear a squeak of protest before it died away. He let out a sigh knowing that he won't be able to get his mind away from the girl.

He turned off his laptop and plopped down on the bed. He started thinking. /Why does she have the kind of powers we have? Is is one of us? But she seems so innocent/ He can't imagine her killing anybody. He sighed again. He knew he won't be able to change what he was. He was just a freak like everybody said. He slowly drited to sleep with those thoughts.

Crawford sat in the livingroom in deep thought. /That girl is Abyssinian's sister? She must be stronger than Schuldig if he can't break her mental shield. Is she from Rosenkruez?/ He shivered at the last thought. He knew Rosenkruez was burnt down but he still had memories of that place. He got up from the couch tiredly and went to his room to sleep. Afterall he had to work tomorrow.

*End Chapter 5*

AN: Well, that was the worst chapter I have written and it was so short too. I have no idea what to write. Aarrghh!!! Sorry about that. I promise that the next chapter will be better. I wrote this chapter because I wanted to explain why Schuldig and Nagi were looking for Ranko but I don't think I did the explanation very well and I also want to introduce the Schreient girls. If you want me to rewrite it that's fine but please send me ideas.
Sorry this chapter is a bit late. Stupid FFNet wasn't working. I was looking forward to some new chapters on the other fanfics too!
BTW I still need a pre-reader so please if anybody wants to volunteer, send your profile to cshamps@yahoo.com
Anyway please review! All C&C are welcome. I'm very sad because I didn't get many reviews for the chapter I worked so hard on so please review!!!!!!!!!!!


Replies to reviews:

'Nightwings' - Yes I failed my maths not to mention I got a C in my English exam. I haven't told my parents yet but I'm dreading the day they find out because my report will be coming out soon. Hopefully they'll still allow me to go on the Internet. I'm glad you like the previous chapter. Fanfics is a stress reliever for me so I'll die if I don't have Internet.

'Bright Shadow' - I'm happy that you like the previous chapter. This chapter was all about Schwarz but I think it's pretty bad so sorry about that. I promise the next one will be better.

'Lady Adako and LadyWatery' - I have included the Schreient girls due to the amount of pleading and requests. I hope you like it.

'SheFury, Ranaya, Firaga and FireGoddess' - I finally have the Schreient girls and their relationship with Ranko will be revealed in due time. As for the curse, you will find out very soon. Fashion sense? I think I'll stay with Ranma's fashion sense with a bit more of feminine stuff.

'Cheetah, Jaguar, Tiger, Panther, Ocelot, Lion, Leopard and Lynx' - Wow! A new group of reviewer. I'm so happy. I'm glad you all like my fic and for the answers to your questions, they will be answered in the next few chapters so please be patient. As for the Crashers, I'll give it a bit more thought because I have never heard of them so it will be a bit hard. Heck, I almost know nothing about Schreient but I included them so there might be a chance that Crashers will be in it if there's a lot of requests for them. Thanks for the info on Crashers and enjoy the fic.
