One, as she finds out, leads to a bathroom similar in layout to Ayame's, except her's is decorated in purple and silver. The other door leads to a walk-in closet where she finds an outrageous amount of clothing. In the center of the room is a low Japanese table surrounded with purple and silver pillows. The armoire and dresser are made of wood, but is painted silver to imitate steel. In the armoire, she finds an array of weapons, mostly whips and throwing daggers. She walks into the closet and picks out loose, black, cotton pants, and a silver sports bra, and takes a shower. She emerges from the shower smelling considerably less of charred skin and more of lavender soap. She sits down against a wall and leans back. She falls into a deep meditative trance, eventually falling asleep.
Ayame:
awakens to a loud knocking at her door. Yells go away Botan comes
bounding in.
Botan: Come on Ayame, wake up it's nine already.
You have the meeting with Koenma in an hour! she is really perky
Ayame: takes a dagger and throws it Botan's way. It just
barely misses her head.
Botan: screams Aahhh! What was that
for! You could have killed me!
Loki:
cracks an eye, looks around, closes it again, and goes back
to sleep.
Ayame: groggily
says Sorry, no, I really am! Don't wake me up in the morning like
that. It's your own suicide.
Botan:nods Ok, I'm gonna wake
up Loki now.
Ayame: I
don't suggest you do that. she is worse than me!
Botan:
cringes Can you do it then?
Ayame:
No, I have to get ready. smiles sweetly
Botan: gulps, then
nods.
Ayame: gets ready while goes over to Loki's room.
Botan: enters Loki's
room very quietly, fearing for her life. She leaves the door
open.
Loki: is against
the far wall, there are no windows and just a black light on(creepy
cool)
Botan: says softly Um, Loki, it's time to get up.
Loki:
twitches. The twitch should have been a warning to Botan, but she
ignores it
Botan: comes just a bit closer Loki, can you hear me
?
Loki: wraps Botan in a shadowy force field that is slowly
getting smallershe left her sunglasses on the bed last night
Botan: is getting a little freaked out Loki, come on, wake up
Loki: Hn... opens her eyes, yelps loud and closes them; hands covering her face. The field around Botan shrinks a lot so she has to sit or be crushed
Botan: screams what is this! Loki!
Loki: doesn't respond. She is turned away from the light, her hands still over her eyes
Botan: really starts to panic as field gets increasingly smaller Loki! Get me out of this!
Loki: HN! (to bright!translation) concentrates and it stops getting smaller but doesn't take it off.
Botan: Loki, what is this? Get me out of it!
Loki: now ignores her like she's not there.
Ayame: comes in, in a bath robe Loki, put down the field.
Loki: hn signs for her glasses or the door to be closed.
Ayame: slams the door shut scaring Botan even more
Loki: opens her eyes and blinks(there tinted red on the edges) Hn looks at Botan concentrates and the shield is gone then acting like nothing happened, grabs her glasses and goes into the closet damn big closet
Botan: Backs away from Loki, then turns to Ayame. what was that.
Ayame: It was a shadow field that she uses when someone pisses her off. Don't ask.
Botan: nods and tries to get her breath under control When you are dressed go to the living room at the end of the hallway. I'll be waiting for you there.
Ayame: nods
Botan: leaves and Ayame and Loki get dressed.
Loki: emerges in a black, short, halter top that just covers her breasts with straps attaching it to red pants that fall over knee boots leather straps up her arms over her ribbons in red. Has a sleeveless black trench coat in-lined with red. Her hair is down. She really wants to kill Botan, but she won't, yet. Her whip is coiled at her hip and all of her concealed weapons are in place.
Ayame: is wearing soft, tight but stretchy black pants that flare out slightly at her ankles. She is also wearing a dark red midriff shirt that is like one long piece of cloth that goes around the neck like a halter top and cris-crosses on her breasts and goes around the back; and over that, is wearing a black cloak with red spider and web designs. She is wearing black boots and has her hair in a high ponytail. Her scimitars are belted around her hips.
They meet in the hallway and eye each other's out-fits. They nod and go down the hallway and meet Botan there.
Botan: is still kinda freaked out by Loki, and the outfit Loki is wearing doesn't help what do you want for breakfast?
Loki: hn turns indicating she wont be eating.
Ayame: turns to Loki are you sure
Loki: nods
Ayame: Ok then, turns to Botan I'll have eggs with bacon, and anything with sugar, preferably chocolate.
Botan: nods and goes to get it
Loki: eyes widen slightly and shakes her head signaling no to Botan
Ayame: signing why Loki? I gotta eat. You know me. I can't fight if I'm too hungry.
Loki: gives her a look and imitates a pinball Sugar, we don't need a hyper fire demon
Ayame: to Botan fine then, no sugar, just some toast with strawberry preserves.
Botan: nods again and starts off
Loki: pouts I need sugar, I might just fall asleep right in the middle of the meeting, maybe I'll just have some coffee.
Ayame: nods caffeine isn't as bad as sugar can be.
Botan: comes back with a huge tray of food.
Ayame: Looks like my eating prowess is well known. Hehe sits down and start to eat, rather quickly.
Loki: smirks slightly
Ayame: you sure you don't want any Loki says with mouth full
Loki: looks around and snags a pear
Loki: just sits there waiting for Ayame to finish
Ayame:
finishes the huge meal in two minutes
Botan: looks at Ayame
like she's something from outer space Leads them back to Koenma's
office
Ayame: Hey,
toddler, you wanted to see us?
Loki: stalks in every ounce a
predator, shades in place, and face like stone
Koenma: face
turns slightly red from irritation I would appreciate it if you
would not call me that. Yes I did. I need to explain more about the
mission... looks at Loki to Ayame is she always like that?
Loki:
glares
