The next day after their mishap at pyramids, the guild gathered together at the main dining table. Kitsu leaning on the side of the wall, listening to what the guild is discussing about.
"It was rather abnormal... to have raydric archers accompanying Osiris you know" muttered Kai as the others filled him in at what happened at the ancient ruins.
They didn't dare to leave the cottage, since Ayuki was still unconscious, they wanted to stay and see what will be decided. This wasn't the first time they have heard that monsters are spawned in unordinary places. Rumors were spread all over, but this time is the first time they have seen it in person.
"Definitely something's going on right now, maybe it's a hint, and maybe something is going to change..." Raksu muttered.
Cagali sighed, "I know, but we have to wait until Ayu wakes up, originally she paired us up for training, but now at the rate she isn't waking up, we won't know what will happen."
Shuffling was heard, and then a black figure stood near the base of the stair case, Kitsu was the first one who turned his attention to that area, with his katars drawn. Ayuki stood there, looking sick and pale, but she seems to have no difficulty of standing. She plopped down on one of the unoccupied sofas as looked at everyone.
She spoke softly, a small calming, gentle voice flowed through the air, "Yan, go complete your priestess training, Dan you shall go accompany her, I'm pretty sure you're almost there. Cagali, remember the list of people who wanted to join the guild, check them with Kai and report back to me. Raksu, I want you to go back to Geffen tower, and talk to the masters there to see if anymore abnormality happened, and report to them what happened and maybe the cause of this behavior."
"But, I don't think the masters would see me..." complained Raksu.
"If they don't, just say Fallen Angel's Guild Mistress wishes to talk to you and they should let you through, after you all completed your task, time limit is 1 month, rejoin back here. Dan and Cagali will go training in the sphinx while Yan, Kai and Raksu will go train in the Biblian caves. Kitsu and I will go to Glast Hiem area to train starting from right now, we will have an extra month compare to the rest of you. We shall complete our training within 5 months, and meeting back here. I hope to see you all stronger by then. Cagali will have the power to invite people into the guild, but will have to pass through me via the intercom for confirmation."
Everyone turned silent at the announcement, they all gathered into their little groups, and looked at Ayuki. She rarely speaks, and she rarely goes train with anyone other than herself. Kai rumbled in his cart, and then passed a small bag to Katsu. "If anything happens, and she faints, let her sniff this, it will bring her back for a short time." Kitsu nodded, and took the little pouch. One by one the members started to leave the house, leaving Kitsu and Ayuki alone.
Ayuki looked at Kitsu, then got up from where she sat, "We'll leave in a week or so, you may get use to the cottage...There's a library down the basement, right across it we have a training room with abundance of Dead Branches." As she reached for the door knob to the outside, she added, "I'm sorry that on our first meeting you saw me like that, usually when I cast it, it only makes me feel unconscious for a while, not a fever. Let's hope it won't happen again ne...? I'll be taking a walk in the field, to see if I find garm acting weird also." With that she disappeared into the white fields.
Kitsu looked as the door closed, the cold draft ended, and the cottage was soon filled in by the warmth that the fireplace was providing. There was something about her that made him feel...guilty about what he's going to do to her soon. He growled slightly as he remembered how she touched his cheek, then walked out of the living room, hoping to find Ayuki.
------------------------------------
Ayuki pant heavily, as she felt extremely light headed. 'I guess I underestimated the condition I'm in, after all I haven't used a large spell like Sanctuary for months. My body must feel weak, Heh.'
She looked up into the blue sky, light flakes of snow were falling down, sighing softly, and she sat down, leaning on a pine tree. She took out some candies she carried and dropped it on the floor. Marins started to hop by, whistling as they consumed the candies and hopped around Ayuki for more, several snowy owls landed on the near by pine tree and hooted softly. She smiled slightly, raising her hand she whispered, "Blessing to all of you ne?" Illusions of cherubs circled around the owls and Marins. She casted several spirits to surround her to give slight comfort to her. A few owls landed next to her and cuddled her. She slowly stroked their feathers as she absorbs herself within the peaceful moment. Feeling her energy slip away from her slowly, she whimpered softly before falling into unconsciousness again.
Kitsu was sitting on one of the branches of a far away pine tree, looking at Ayuki, he took in how beautiful she looked, how sweet that small smile of hers was, and how the atmosphere became so tranquil and gentle with her having her guards off. Sighing softly, he shook his head, 'why her...?' He looked at her again and realized that she has fallen asleep, landing softly on the white snow. He approached her carefully, the owls hooted at him in hostility but he ignored him. As gentle as possible, he swept her up in his arms.
Ayuki grunted softly as she felt someone lifted her up, she tried to open her eyes but the weariness overtook her. Trying to free herself from the person as much as possible, she mustered up as much energy as she could and put her hand on the person's body and muttered, "Investigate..." a spirit was absorbed into her body and a small amount of energy was passed into her hand and forced Kitsu backwards, just so she can get on her own feet. Kitsu was sent backwards, letting go of Ayuki, she landed on the snow. Weak and weary, she tried her best to stand up, then looked at who the assaulter was. Realizing it was Kitsu, she let out a small sigh before landing on her butt again. "Sorry about that...didn't know it was you..." she said softly, she could barely stand up again.
Kitsu looked at her, and picked her up again, whispering softly, "Don't worry, just rest, I'll bring you back." Ayuki nodded slowly and fell back asleep again. He walked on a steady pace back to the cottage.
On the way back, he couldn't help it but casting small glances at her sleeping form, she looked so innocent like this, without that cold aura that she had around her the first time they met. She has already cuddled closer to him for warmth, he couldn't help it but a small blush crept on his cheeks when she did that. Opening the door to the house, he walked into her bedroom the second time and set her down. Dragging the soft white sheets carefully over her, he closed the door carefully on his way out, he set his eyes upon her again, and went into his new room.
His room was simple; a small seating area right beside the door, and several finely polished wooden cabinets for storage area. A bed that seemed to be made for two people, Cagali has already told him that if he wishes to change his room all he has to do is tell her and she will get the material that he requested. Flopping onto the sofa, he looked up at the ceiling. 'This couldn't be it?' Growling in annoyance, he closed his eyes, hoping to look for some rest, but all he could think was her...
=========
Hehe, how is it? Feedbacks are welcomed.Hope it isn't too sappy, more action next and revealing why did Ayuki chose to be a monk on the next chapter!
Just realized that after I uploaded it, that the uploaded version was totally different from my written version, where as several phrases are changed, censored words!? Meep there's no such thing right ?
Heading to Vancouver BC in a few days, maybe a small little update in the next two days when I'll probably constantly update more since I have more free time writing. I may start a new fic with a dear friend. Under a new ID... don't know what yet tho
