Matt looked in the mirror his fingers tracing the bruises caused by crocodile head guy… Or whatever he was! He got a damp cloth trying to soothe to the pain. But they just continued to glow bright purple and continued to scream in pain. What did that thing do to him? What was that green ball and why wasn't he bleeding? Wait maybe he was… He quickly pulled his shirt up to reveal a large red circle. It wasn't bleeding it was just a scab… He thought about what he should do with it. He couldn't just leave it like that… He thought back to the digi-world and remember Joe, the keeper or reliability. He had a strange obsession with wrapping stuff in toilet roll. Meh maybe it would work now. Matt walked into the toilet behind him and pulled out a toilet roll. He couldn't believe he was about to do this but he couldn't go to the nurse without explaining what happened. He put a little water on the end and stuck it on his chest. He winced as it went over his stomach. It hurt so much, like knives poking right through him. But he continued until he was wrapped. It got progressively better as the wound got more and more covered. He looked at his watch, he'd been away for 15 minutes… Well it's not like the teacher would actually mind since it's more to worry about in the class. Matt tucked his shirt in (which he never normally did but he didn't want to risk anyone seeing the toilet roll) and walked back to class. Maybe he should have bandaged his neck too…
"Now what sin next?" the man asked thoroughly enjoying the entertainment. Young children suffering in such a way, delicious. Besides it serves them right for releasing the digi-world. With them out of the way he would be able to reclaim what was once his!
"Let's have my favourite, can't be bothered to save the best till last." She plucked up the third sphere. A golden yellow.
"What is that Proserpine?" the man asked.
"Pride, false courage. I know exactly who to give this to." Proserpine grinned.
Tai wandered in the yard. Mr Kimal said that once Sora woke up he was allowed to relax. Besides they weren't doing anything in class. He looked at the tree where Sora sat a few hours ago. Maybe that was why she crazy… Nah she'd been doing that for years, why would it harm her now? In any case he wandered over to the tree and sat down. He felt the soft wind flow almost right through him. Cool and refreshing. Then he realised he still hadn't buttoned back up after… Sora. He felt his throat constrict. Why did she do that? Did she really feel that way? If so then why didn't she just say. Sora always liked to talk things through before she did anything she knew she might regret. Maybe she was possessed or something… He sighed and closed his eyes letting his thought run wild for a while. All he could hear was the wind. He slowly opened his eyes, expecting to see the grey yard just over the green soft grass he saw. But instead he saw black trousers standing in front of him. Tai stared for a few seconds trying to get his head around it but a felt a strong hand on the back of his neck, it lifted him to his feet. He felt his balance waver, he fell back on to the tree shaking his head furiously. He looked at the strange man. He had blonde short hair and a respectable completely black suit on. But the thing that made him stand out so much was these black wing… Tattered on the edges and a leathery on the centre. Almost like bat wings. His eyes were grey and old but his face young and handsome. He looked at Tai carefully and nodded. Tai was still dizzy from being hauled up from the ground. He looked at the floor it seemed to be spinning… The man sighed and grabbed a lump of his hair, pulling him close. Tai couldn't feel the man's breath of even sense any body heat all he could feel was the pain in his head. The man didn't smile nor laugh. In fact he looked bored. He raised his other hand and a yellow orb began to appear it was like a flame. Tai looked at it and then at the strange man… The man's wings slowly gave a quick flap. Tai didn't feel the ground any more. He was being lifted up. The man suddenly gave a sly smile and raised Tai up to his level. His mouth moved but no sound came out. Tai stared at him in disbelief as he heard in his head a manly yet sinister voice. It said "Now don't worry, but this is going to really hurt." Tai gulped as the man raised his hand with the flaming yellow ball and slammed it on to Tai's head. Burning! It felt like it was burning through his flesh! Tai screamed in agony as the flames consumed his face and eyes. He felt his whole body creeping and bubbling. What was going on? He wanted to control the pain force it to stop but it continued he felt as though he was going to die a burnt corpse. But then he felt the hardness of the floor. It stopped. Tai felt tears streaming down his face. What had just happened? He whimpered and began to feel the contours of his face. They were still the same, not burnt or fleshy. Just soft and warm. He moved his fingers up to his head. Still nothing. Just the same as before. He looked up, the winged man was gone…
Proserpine clapped gleefully. She was laughing and breathing hard. The man looked at her strangely.
"What?" She asked completely innocent. "Lucifer happens to be an old friend of mine and he always happens to do a good show!" she smiled and looked back into the box.
"Yes well doesn't Pride always take the longest to work?" the man asked impatiently.
"Well yes, that is why it has been unleashed now." Proserpine grinned as she curled her hair around her finger.
"What next?" the man sighed.
"Wait and see."
Izzy sighed in grimace. Art, the only lesson that didn't involve a lot of mechanical thinking. The thinking he was used to. Like ab(c-b)23 so it seemed like no work at all. But his art teacher seemed to always compliment his work. Why he wasn't sure since he was only doing what he saw. He didn't realise it was good. He slowly did another brush stroke on the apple. A bowl of fruit wasn't very taxing on the brain either. It was delicious and if Tai were here he would probably feel extremely hungry but it was just Izzy in this lesson. He was bored but slightly excited too. He hadn't told any one but Mimi was coming into to school today at lunch. She came back to Japan with her dad and she was raring to get back into school but she wanted to surprise everyone. But she immediately rang Izzy. She said he was the only person who could keep a secret. Maybe she should have rang Joe. He was the keeper of Reliability. But she said she was just sure she could trust him. So he was waiting in class for it to finish so he could meet Mimi. Lunch hour was coming next and he really couldn't contain his excitement.
"Very good work Izzy!" the teacher trilled as she flounced past. She was far too cheerful to be a teacher. Izzy looked towards the bowl of fruit again and to his shock he saw something else. A woman, with long white hair… Her eyes completely covered and her clothes literally sagging off her thin body. She looked up straight at Izzy. Izzy looked around. Everyone else was ignoring the beautiful woman. Her clothes were white rags and her lips a light pinkish colour. She began to walk over to Izzy ever so slowly. Izzy stumbled back. Who was this strange woman?
"Izzy what's wrong?" the strange teacher asked chirpily, "Do you need to go to the nurse?" she asked still not concerned at all.
"Um… I… yes." Izzy's words were even mixed up.
"Ok off you go! I'll make sure to put this somewhere safe." the teacher grinned and wandered off. Ok the rumours were right she is on drugs! Izzy stood up and began to walk to the door. But he went the wrong way and walked right through the girl forgetting she was there. A chill went straight down his spine. He turned around, but she had disappeared in a cloud of blue… Izzy shook his head and walked towards the door more quickly. He walked down the corridor slowly not really knowing where he was actually supposed to be going. But as he looked up he saw her again. The pale white girl. Her hair so carelessly pulled over her face, her eyes were a soft green and greyish colour. Her lips so thin and light. Her arms and legs were so thin. But the thing that Izzy recognised the most was her expression. She looked so tired, her eyelids sagging and her body gesture was so slumped. She looked at Izzy again directly. He looked at her. She raised her head and her fingers began to shine. Slowly she walked over to Izzy. He was nailed to the spot, half enticed half in fear. As she reached him she tiredly lifted one hand and placed a finger on his lips. Her fingers shining blue. Izzy suddenly felt so tired… So sluggish, his arms began to loose feeling, his eyelids began to feel heavy. Everything he did made him feel all the more exhausted. Even breathing became a difficult task. The woman took her finger away and looked at him sadly. He looked at her slowly his actions so incredibly slow. She dispersed in to a blue powder again. At the same moment Izzy collapsed. Too tired to do anything. He couldn't even feel the excitement he had before, the anticipation of seeing Mimi. It just dispersed like the strange woman…
Mimi entered the canteen happily at sat at the normal table. She couldn't wait to see everyone's faces when they saw her. She knew they'd be surprised. Only problem was that Joe wasn't going to be there because he was sitting an exam. But at least she got to see everyone else. She looked at the clock above the door impatiently. It was nearly 12 o'clock! She knew that she wanted to surprise them so much. She had presents too! Ooh just the anticipation was killing her. She turned her head to the door. Standing there instead of any children was a tall woman. Taller than any other woman she had ever seen. Her hair was a bright red and it trailed down to her stomach and was ornamented with so many jewels and rocks it looked extremely heavy. Her face was pale but covered in make up and deep eye shadow on her brown eyes and extremely bright red lip gloss which literally shone. Her clothes were rich in silks and velvets. Patterned in gold only. Her fingers had numerous jewelled rings and bangles were hanging off her wrists. Mimi stared in amazement at this extremely strange looking woman. She never heard the door open either. The woman began to walk over to Mimi calmly and slowly. Mimi felt like screaming and yelling. But the woman looked so calm and didn't seem like a threat. The woman pulled one of her many rings off as it began to shine orange. It looked like amber. She placed it on the table just by Mimi's finger tips. She smiled as Mimi looked at it in awe. The colours were reflecting on to the table like water. Mimi desperately wanted to touch it. She wanted to feel the colours, see if they were water… Slowly she edged her hand out to the ring. As soon as she touched it her hand went numb and the ring began to shine even brighter. It was blinding, Mimi immediately shut her eyes. She wasn't sure what to do. She was blind and she would go blind if she tried to open her eyes. Then she heard the door open.
"MIMI!" Kari's voice shrilled. "Who's that?" she asked. Mimi opened her eyes, the woman was still there but the ring was gone.
"I don't know…" Mimi mumbled. The woman looked completely shocked. Kari began to run over to see what was going on, but the woman disappeared in a flash of orange light.
"Mimi are you ok?" Kari looked at worriedly.
"Umm, yeah… I think I am…" Mimi breathed in.
"Maybe we should get something to eat." Kari smiled cheerfully so she could put a smiled on Mimi's face.
"Sure…" Mimi stood up.
"So how was America?" Kari smiled desperately trying to change the subject.
