When Alls Been Said and Done
CHAPTER 1 The last mission
Rosette was walking around looking for Chrono, who, ironically, had disappeared around noon. 'Where could that demon be?' Rosette thought angrily as she looked under a table; he wasn't there, but she did get a big knot on her head for standing up too soon. She stood up and looked out the window…where she finally spotted him taking a nap by the old oak.
Deciding that this was a perfect opportunity to get revenge on the all-too-alert demon, she silently crept outside and snuck up to him with an evil smile on her face. She carefully stepped over that annoying twig that breaks and wakes up the person who was supposed to be scared, then she pounced on him screaming at the top of her lungs,
"WAKE UP CHRONO!" in his face as his eyes shot open
"Gah!" Chrono yelled as Rosette elbowed him in the stomach, looking for the source. He noticed the source rather quickly, since she was still on him, laughing her head off. Seeing Rosette, he closed his eyes to keep from showing his annoyance at her. He sat up shaking his head in anger. "ROSETTE YOU'VE GOT TO STOP DOING THAT!!" he yelled as she looked taken aback, then like she was going to cry, however, he didn't buy it. "You're gonna give me a heart attack some day…" He said, calming down.
"Oh relax Chrono, it's only me." She paused, scratching her nose before she said calmly, "Sister Kate wants to see us."
"Hmm…" He said, knowing Rosette, she probably blew something up, which was probably the new Ford, or even another building, heck, it could have been the whole city for all he knew; she was sneaky. "What did you do this time, Rosette?" He said half-heartily.
TWITCH
POW"HEY, IT'S NOT ALWAYS MY FAULT! YOU'RE THE ONE THAT MADE ME RUN INTO THE BANK, AND THE CHURCH, AND THE HOT DOG STAND, AND THE BAKERY…AND THAT'S NOT THE POINT!! If you weren't so cute, it wouldn't happen!" Chrono looked at her weirdly. "What?!" Rosette yelled angrily. Then she realized what she said and turned a bright red. "THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT! YOU BEWITCHED ME TO SAY THAT!" She declared loudly, pointing at Chrono as the other Sister's stared at her.
"Well, uh, we have to go see Sister Kate." She grabbed his hand and took off, not waiting for him to get to his feet, leaving him to fly behind her in the air helplessly as she pulled him by the hand. This was one of those times when Rosette could take advantage of how light Chrono really was.
"ROSETTE!" Chrono yelled over the wind. "COULD YOU SLOW DOWN, PLEASE?!" He yelled as he ducked a low hanging branch.
"NO! WE'RE LATE AS IT IS WITHOUT YOU SLOWING US DOWN!!!" She yelled as she tightened her grip on his arm as a tree branch whacked him in the face.
When they finally reached her office and had closed the door, Chrono dropped to the ground, swirly eyed with dizziness, gasping for air. Sister Kate raised her eyebrow at Rosette questioningly.
"I don't want to know, do I?" Rosette shook her head and pulled Chrono into a nearby chair, trying to revive her helpless partner. "Well, Sister, the reason I called for you two, is to inform you of your new mission." Before Rosette could reply, she went on. "There has been a decrease of demon population in Chicago, and we need to know why. It seems whatever the cause of it is, it's attracted to strong demons, so that's why we chose you two." She smiled, not noticing Rosette's dropped jaw.
"Ma'am, if I may say something?" Chrono asked shakily, causing Rosette to fall out of her chair from shock. When Sister Kate nodded, he went on. "About 64 years ago, there was a demon that I ran across that loved killing so much, he would pay people to let him kill someone they hated, so he wasn't very rich. Anyway, when I ran across him, he was…well, lets say he had taken employment under someone to do me off, and he almost succeeded too, if Aion hadn't come in time…" He trailed off, his eyes glassy from remembrance. Rosette's jaw dropped down further.
'How can he remember what happened 64 years ago when I can't even remember what I did yesterday after I ate breakfast?! Wait! What did I have for breakfast yesterday?!" She thought as he shook his head, apparently trying to clear his thoughts.
"Anyway, this demon would suck the very essence of life out of you, then, if you were strong enough, he would take your soul and enslave it to his will. All demons attacks are negated from him, so I was lucky to escape." At their confused look, he said calmly, "Aion hit him in the head with fire hydrant, and he dropped me." He laughed a little as he saw their faces.
"So you say, it…it takes your life energy, and your attacks don't work on it?" Sister Kate asked incredulously. At his nod, she went on. "Then, perhaps holy ammunition will work on it." She looked thoughtful, then kept talking again. "Be careful out there, Rosette. If what Chrono says is true, then I think you'll need all the luck you can get." At Rosette's blank look, she simplified. "I'm saying that you need to get on to your mission and that you're helpless without guns, so don't lose these." At that, she placed two shining holy guns into Rosettes' hands. "Don't lose 'em, they're new. And another thing Sister, don't use them unless absolutely necessary. Each gun has 5 bullets, so that should be enough." She turned her chair to Chrono, who looked like he was going to puke. "What's wrong, Chrono?" Sister Kate asked as she saw his face.
"It's just that…there's something strong in these guns that doesn't feel right…like it shouldn't be there, and it is definitely not something holy. " He said as he stood up and walked to the door. "Rosette, don't place your life on these. If you do…there may be dire consequences." He walked out the door and closed it with a 'snap'.
Rosette stared after him, then said, "What's he talking about?" Sister Kate just shook her head and stared at the door as well.
'He can sense it?! But how? I only used a little bit of it and he can sense it's unnatural aura? Please, Rosette, be careful…If he can sense it, then your in for a world of trouble…'
