Chapter 8
"Ayane!"
Ayane woke with a start to see Seki and Ascot standing over her. It was not difficult for her to figure out she had fallen asleep in the mirror room. Ascot lifted a hand and the pillow and blanket dissappeared, leaving a very groggy Ayane sitting on the floor in her pajama's.
"Here." Seki said offering his hand to help her up.
"No...." She moaned. "I don't wanna get up."
Ascot and Seki grabbed her arms while she protested against mornings and all they stood for. The two boys started walking down the hall and noticed that Ayane was barely walking and slowly they got a very silly idea in their foolish heads. Suddenly the two began running, forcing Ayane to run along with them or be dragged on the floor.
"This isn't funny!" She cried up to the boys as they laughed.
When they got to the room Jin and Nanase were eating breakfast and both made cheerful, teasing comments to Ayane about sleeping in.
"Oh shut up..."
After she had gone into her room Seki sat down and starting munching down his own breakfast. No use in rushing. Ayane would probobly take awhile to get dressed at the rate she was going. Her morning habits already had him fruterated. Not that it really mattered. He was a very patient person and he liked Ayane a lot. She seemed a bit to cold and distant but he found that strangely attractive. Not like the other girls at his school who were all ditzy and would spill any secret to a gossip column.
Fifteen minutes later Ayane came out of her room running a comb through her hair. She sat down between Nanase and Jin and began to eat a small breakfast.
"You're not a morning person are you...?" Jin asked with a grin.
"No. Not really no, no..." She grumbled softly.
Nanase laughed at Ayane as she sat there looking ready to fall asleep in her food.
Ascot, who had not left since bringing Ayane in with Seki's help spoke after a moment, "Today I am taking you on one of my beasts to Eterna. Before we go you are going to go to the weapons room with Sierra and she will give some temporary weapons for while you are in Eterna." With that he left them to think over the schedule that had been set for them. A schedule none of them felt prepared for.

The four teenagers (or rather soon to be teenager in Nanase's case) followed Sierra down a long hallway until they reached a door. When the door was opened they found themselves in a large room with every type of weapon imaginable on the walls and racks that were in the center of the room. As Sierra instructed they closed their eyes and focused on a weapon that could be used easily and effectively by them. When they opened their eyes Sierra told them that she knew that they got their grandparents original weapons. Except Ayane. She decided not to tell her about her weapon. It might make the girl uncomfortable to know she now held Sierra's dead sisters weapon.
