"Mary Magdalene"
Rosette blinked awkwardly comprehending the question asked by Kaia. "You don't remember?" "You were in the park unconscious." Her eyebrows lowered, "This is New York, Manhattan." Kaia stared at Rosette her eyes wide with fear. "I-I'm in a mang- " She cut off once more not willing to tell them they were a book, "I'm from Indiana and I don't know how I got here." Chrono frowned as if trying to solve a math equation, but then he turned to whisper something in Rosette's ear. "Rosette, maybe we should take her to Sister Kate, she would know what to do." Rosette smirked, "You think she'd help!" She laughed rolling her blue eyes. Chrono laughed along with her and turned to look at Kaia. "What's your name?" He asked in a quiet voice.
Kaia quickly turned her gaze towards Chrono. She picked at her fingers nervously. "I'm Kaia." She said more willingly than before. He sighed, sitting next to her. "We're going to take you to where we live, we are part of the Magdalene order and we kill devils." He sighed leaning back, "Maybe we can get this whole thing figured out." He turned, staring Kaia in the eyes with the same adorable smile. He's so cute. Kaia thought turning red, she quickly turned away to look out the window. Kaia felt a rumbling and then the car was off again. It traveled over bumps and huge rocks, shaking Kaia out of her embarrassment. "I never noticed it before, but you look a lot like Rosette." Chrono said curiously, lifting one eyebrow. Kaia frowned and then she looked down at her hands. Whoa! I'm an anime character! She thought touching her hair and her face franticly. Chrono stared at her, puzzled. "What are you doing?" he asked loosening the brim of his red overcoat.
Kaia stopped, to look at Chrono again; she could feel her face grow hot as she searched for an excuse. "Um…I'm just- felling a little sick that's all." She said felling guilt rise in her chest. He frowned reaching for her forehead. "You don't feel to hot, but maybe you should lay down." He told her, a saddened look on his face, "Besides with Rosette's driving there is no way anyone can avoid not being sick." He whispered with a giggle. Rosette turned, her lips in a firm frown. "I heard that Chrono!" She screamed, causing Chrono to fluster. "Watch the rode Rosette!" He begged clinging to the seat. "Yeah, yeah, yeah." She muttered turning around. Chrono whipped at his forehead, sighing, then he grabbed a small black blanket "Here, I'll sit on the end and you can lay down." He said, scooting towards the window. Kaia blushed and laid down, her knees slightly bent.
Chrono threw the blanket over her and felt her head once more. Kaia felt overwhelmed with joy. I'm lying next to Chrono! And he's nice to me! Her head screamed over and over. Her eyes slowly drifted closed, and she hunched her shoulders to her head. This is the best. She thought to herself accidentally nuzzling Chrono's side with her head. She blushed quickly noticing what she'd done. She looked up at him and noticed he was blushing also. "Sorry." She muttered lifting the blanket to her nose. "It's fine." He replied giggling, "I didn't give you enough room." "You can lye your head on my lap if you want." He said smiling, "I'll get a wet towel."
He leaned forward and grabbed a white hand cloth from the glove department, and then he slowly poured water onto in from the bottle in the front. "What are you doing Chrono?" Rosette snapped. Chrono frowned, "Kaia is not feeling well, and it's a long drove back from the city so I'm going to let her sleep." Rosette rolled her eyes, "You are to nice for your own good Chrono, and it's hard to believe you're a devil." She laughed jokingly, rubbing Chrono's head. Sometimes it is for me too. He thought sitting back down placing the cloth on Kaia's head. Sometimes too much for me to handle.
