"I think...I'm not going home,"
"You mean for just now, right, Hieraya?"
"No...I mean I don't think I'm going home...at all..."
"But where will you go?"
Hieraya shrugged. Her only objection against becoming a "seer" was that it changed everything...but wouldn't everything change anyway if she stayed...
"I guess I'll eventually end up at my aunt's..." the disappointment in her sister's face was so animated and human. Expressions were something that Hieraya's face never really took on. "Go home,"
"You want to be rid of me..."
Hieraya laughed. When had her laughter become heartless? Unintentionally cold and mocking... "I want to be rid of many things...but not my sister. Now go home and tell Mother I'm wandering around being bitter," she watched her sister disappear into the dark and wondered what, really, she was going to do next.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eclipse observed the hybrid from a rooftop. The destined one had a subdued demon evil...he could tell. Though the human blood longed to protect the loved, her demonic mother had given her the ability to not rely on or care too much about anyone in the end. How amusing...and ironic. A half-demon was more evil than Master Raenef. ~there I go thinking about Raenef again...dammit...~
The hybrid's undeveloped 6th sense forced her to glance at the buildings on the side of the street. She stared at Eclipse with menacing eyes, speaking by narrowing the flaming orbs. Eclipse glared daggers at her.
So, there was the 3rd order demon standing on the roof of a building...and his mission standing at the foot of the building.
And they're glaring at each other.
*glare*
*glare*
*glare*
*glare*
"You're a demon," ah yes someone finally speaks...
"Very observant, hybrid,"
"Are you here to coerce me into my apprenticeship?"
~Very observant indeed~
She grinned, one eyebrow raised. "You must have extreme self confidence problems since you're just standing up there and everything...trying to make yourself all-powerful if only in your own mind? Must be fun over there in Happy World,"
~Oh, you are so cruel...~ he matched her sly expression and summoned a fireball.
"Oh, shit..."
"Are you taking back what you said, hybrid?"
"Why don't you come down here and threaten me like a real demon would?"
~So very amateurishly cruel...you have potential to be a demon countess. Not a seer...well, I have no time for games. Master Raenef needs me~ he stepped off of the roof, appearing at the hybrid's side, towering over the stunned half-breed. His cloak fluttered, the folds draping over the girl, muffling her scream...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~what happened...~ she saw blurs of colors. The pigments swirled and combined and separated into a familiar street. ~where is that demon...~ yes, where was that demon? What did he look like again? Tall...and he had onyx hair darker than the night...long, shiny hair...he was pretty...
She saw her own hair flying in a wind that she could not feel. In fact, her whole body was numb. She couldn't even feel the numbness. It was like she had no body at all...But she could hear...the wind...and...screaming. Screaming...a group of people. Villagers? They were running. She heard footsteps. Heavy like stomping...and then the buildings melted and caved in on her in a splash of blurry colors...blurring into just...black...
Hieraya looked around her at the marble columns. Had she been dreaming? ~at least I know I'm not dreaming anymore...~ she could feel the cool marble that she lied on. Her body wasn't numb. She could feel the existence and realness of her fingers. A dull pain was in her spine. She had fallen from...somewhere...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meruhesae had thrown her crystal orb at the wall when she saw Eclipse so close to her niece. So what if it was all stern formality? He was still ALMOST HUGGING HER!
"UGH THIS IS SO UNFAIR! Eclipse...you WILL be mine..." she laughed maniacally in that idiotic Meruhesae patented way. "Now, as for Hieraya...she's in my house...meh let her find me,"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hieraya groaned and pushed herself up. She was in an entrance hall of some sort...it was randomly filled with marble columns. Sheer and silk fabrics draped like cobwebs from the columns.
"Fancy," she commented while wandering in the labrinth of columns. "Although the general interior design could use a little work..." she finally found an ornate door at the end of the room. It was more like the entrance to a tomb for royalty than just an ornate door. "Rasaed, this place is girly," she waved aside more pastel-colored fabric and entered the next room. It was lacking in columns, but there was still silk draped everywhere. It was also in lacking in furniture, which made the already huge room seem even more vacant.
The one piece of furniture was an oversized bed weighed down with an abundant mound of silk pillows and sheets that sweeped the floor. A sheer canopy very much like a circus tent hovered above the bed.
And of course, we must not overlook the fact that there is a person ON the bed. Hieraya was a little shocked by the slender woman's hair. The dark, wavy locks hung all the way to the floor.
Hieraya didn't care much for the impressive locks or the lady's magnificent outfit and jewelry. She looked detachedly at the woman and folded her arms in a very un-girly way.
The woman lowered the delicate fan that hid her face. "Well, aren't you going to explain yourself?"
"There isn't much to explain, considering I don't know where the hell I am..." ~lady, you're stupid...~
"You are quite stupid yourself for insulting me in my house...in my realm,"
~psychic lady...~ "So I did end up in the right place...Meruhesae?"
"A bit slow, aren't we?"
"Yes. You are,"
"DAMN YOU DISRESPECTFUL HALF-BREED!" the crystal ball that had been magically repaired was broken again as it was thrown at the hybrid, who dodged it effortlessly, letting it crash into the wall.
"You should know, dear aunt...I'm a bit of a tomboy, and I spent most of my years playing dodgeball,"
"Yes, I can tell by the way you dress..." the Seer rested her head on her palm in an exasperated motion. "...a torn shirt, shorts...rough boots. A plain velvet cape. No embroidery or ribbons. No bows. How can I possibly be related to you?"
"It wasn't in the job description to be pretty-in-pink, Aunt,"
Meruhesae shook her head and waved her fan at the door. "I can't deal with you right now. One of the servants outside will show you to your room. Leave me alone,"
~some teacher you are~
"And I heard that,"
~but of course...fuck this shit...~
"I think we should start with mannerisms tomorrow. You may walk and move like a graceful demon, but you dress, talk, and think like a rude convict boy. Your first lesson will be appropriate language!"
"This is shit...and yes, I did mean to say that," Hieraya smiled wickedly and left the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her bedroom was fancy but bland. It was just a carbon copy of her aunt's room except with more furniture. Hieraya threw herself onto the bed, digging the muddy heels of her boots into the expensive demon silk. How she hated the prettiful touches of pure girliness everywhere. She was sure her aunt hadn't decorated the room so meticulously to cultivate her. She was doing this to torture her.
"It shouldn't be me...my sister should be here. My sister, with her years of mannerisms training, should be able to appreciate this...pinkness...it's so tempting to tear down those fabrics raining down from the ceiling..."
She turned and tried resting on her side so she wouldn't have to look at anything, but she could see the room in her head. It wasn't pulled from memory...it was like there were eyes on the back of her head that remained open. ~I wonder what happened to that other demon...what was his name anyway?~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"ECLIPSE! YOU'RE BAAAAAAAAAAAACK!" Raenef settled himself in his tutor's arms.
"Aaaaaaaaaw cute. Rae has a thing for Eclipse," said Erutis under her breath. Chris heard and laughed, then turned the laugh into fake coughing.
"So what happened, Eclipse?" asked Erutis.
"Yeah, tell us!" pleaded Raenef. "What was she like?"
"Stubborn," ~and nothing like her aunt~
"So did you persuade her to become a Seer?"
"I suppose you could say that..."
"YOU MONSTER YOU COOKED HER AND ATE HER DIDN'T YOU!" accused Chris, who was appropriately sent out of the room with fire in his hair.
"heh...I think I'll go...and leave you two alone...heh..." Erutis laughed nervously and ran out of the room.
"Now if only that could work permanently..."
Rae giggled at the musing.
