Is it not completely amusing when the last thing you want to have happen happens and at possibly the worst time possible? To some perhaps but at this moment it was causing one person a great deal of anger, irritation, and stress. Amazing how all these things can come from one persistent umbrella. The square by the Tower of London it's self was empty as a slightly short, brown haired, green eyed girl fought with no avail with a black umbrella which insisted on opening all the way, as in, become somewhat the shape of a tulip. Needless to she was not in the best of moods as she walked clumsily while throwing the umbrella into the street, where it was run over a heavy carriage ending it's miserable life.
London itself was still awake as people went about, minding their own business as the young woman grumbled, making her way down the street. Clouds blocked the moon (crescent, 2nd week) as dog barked in the distance. Wrapping her dark brown coat tighter around her petite body, Nicole watched as people chattered about this and that and who was cheating one whom and what was now in fashion. Honestly it sickened her how people depended so much on other people's help in things. Time and experience had taught her that help from other's only leads to more work for her.
And experience had also taught her that not watching where you were going would indeed cause you problems also as she rubbed her forehead where it had just hit a lamp pole. Now it was easy to say she was royalty angry but this was a daily thing, a fire here, and fall down the stairs there, if she was lucky (which she's not) she'd get though the day with out having to see the nurse at the convent in which she lived in.
By now said convent was in view, which connected to the towering Cathedral in London, which now looked more like the palace in a nightmare then a house of God. Speeding up a bit Nicole went thought the gate and attempted to pass through to the dormitory's with out being noticed, but of course that was a lost cause as a hand laid on her shoulder causing the poor girl to jump in surprise.
Spinning around she came face to face with Sister Ruth the sort of Leader Nun at the convent who frowned at Nicole. "my dear, now where have you been, wet, late, and without telling a nun?" she asked as Nicole frowned.
"but I told Sister Mary that I was going for a walk" Nicole stated, making Sister Ruth's frown deepen.
"I'm sure you did" Sister Ruth said, leading Nicole by the shoulders away form the dormitories and towards the main building. Shoulders slumped Nicole let herself be lead though the door, down the hall , and into the Bishops' office where he sat reading the next mass's Readings. He looked over his spectacles as Nicole and Sister Ruth entered the room.
"ah, finally found her did you?" he said. Placing down the papers and beaconing Nicole to come forward.
"you may Leave Sister Ruth" He said, as the nun nodded and shut the door behind her, he motioned for Nicole to sit down in the chair in which she did, not before tripping over it's leg and slamming her elbow into the desk.
Whimpering, she sat down as the Bishop shook his head.
"bad day?" he inquired as Nicole shrugged/
"you could say that" she answered as the Bishop laughed slightly, but stopped clearing his tough.
"Nicole it has come to my attention, that you have been having a few problems lately, and been causing problems lately" he began as Nicole leaned back in the chair frowning.
"so I have decided to move you to another church and another's care" he finished to which Nicole shot out of her seat.
"not again, I just got here only a month ago and I'm being moved Again!!" she exclaimed as the Bishop nodded.
"I'm sorry, but your problems are now out of my leagues to help you" he told her, motioning for her to sit down again. Frowning she obliged.
"pray be, where am I going this time?"
"Italy...Rome to be exact... and the Vatican to be even more exact" he told her and she frowned.
"you leave in two days and I suggest you start packing today" he told her, watching her intently.
"I am sorry...but I think they will be able to help you" he said as Nicole shrugged, stood up and left the room.
Groaning as she made her way down the hall, her heels clicking against the stone floors. She went to her room and shut the door, getting her dress caught and yelled.
"why me? Why is it ALWAYS me?"
