I cry…
Chapter 5
I looked up as the young woman trudged towards me. So this was one of the people seeking 'Moonbeam'… She didn't look like much, bushy hair, brown eyes… Ah… Hermione is her name. I smile to myself as she stomps to a stop.
"This is ridiculous!"
"No," I replied, slipping out from the shadows of the large stone dragon, "Ridiculous is a spell."
She glowered at me angrily, "What is with you people? There is a war going on, and you are all laughing like nothing is happening!"
I crossed my arms and raised an eyebrow, "So, we should all just be miserable because things are going bad? Sit around and pity ourselves? Be my guest. I, however, am not going to sit on my ass and complain."
She gawked at me in surprise. She obviously wasn't used to people talking to her like that. Well, if my other side had a chance to "talk" she would have been really in for it.
"So, I see you've met Moonbeam."
I looked up as Shadow and the others came out into the hallway.
"You're Moonbeam?" she gasped incredulously.
I gave her a stiff bow, "Guten tag, sie Hermione."
Aaaaaaaaaa
I couldn't believe it. Their leader was the biggest nut of them all. And she had the audacity to say I sat on my ass pitying myself! The nerve!
"Done sulking?" I girl with blonde hair muttered, taking a seat next to me.
"I was not sulking."
"Whatever."
"Don't mind her!" another girl chirped, swinging her leather clad body into the chair opposite me, "I'm D-Range, that nutter's Wrath. She's just sarcastic." she added with a wink.
The other, Wrath, stuck her tongue out.
"Order!" Moonbeam called from the front of the room, "I think we all know why we're here. They want our help. We've fought our own fare share of battle, now we're called up to duty again." She rose from her seat and began walking around the room, all eyes fixed on her. I had to admit, she could draw an audience. "If we were simply scared little pets, we could run away with our tail tucked between our legs. THAT is not the way we work, is it?"
A loud chorus of loud NO's answered her.
AAAAAAAAAaaAAAAAAAAAAA
I watched as Hermione pouted over in her corner. She didn't seem to like these girls one little bit. They were the only chance we had now, though. It was kind of scary that we were putting our future into their young hands…
