Chapter 2: Colette the Chosen
Colette had wished that she could sit with Lloyd at lunch. Unfortunately, Professor sage asked Colette after the test to meet her at 12:10. She hope she wouldn't have to take the test that she was asked to sit out earlier; she couldn't bear to kill anyone again. Last year, she was chanting the incantation for holy song, and had mad a mistake in the chant. The following event could have been described as "One hell of an explosion". They were still looking for some of the bodies. This was also the reason they had to change campuses.
Colette knocked lightly on the door. The door creaked open, and out came a man with reddish-brown hair. He wore purple armor, and had a sword strapped to his belt. He gave Colette one quick glance before walking down the hallway.
"Who as that?" Colette asked the professor as soon as she entered the room.
"That was Mr. Aurion. He's going to be you're new swordsmanship teacher for this year. I'm sure that if our life were a video game, he would be a minor character not worth investigating." Raine replied not looking up from the stack of homework that she was correcting.
"Riiiiiiiggggghhhhhtttttt. That's a weird thing to say." Colette replied still trying to make some sense of what the professor had just said to her. "You err… called me in here earlier about the time that that endless tower thing appeared a few miles from here."
"Oh! Right!" replied Raine, apparently snapping out of her thoughts. "Well the Crucix organization voted unanimously yesterday that you were to be the new chosen."
All Colette had to reply to this was a very out of character "Shit."
"Come now," Raine said now trying to encourage Colette "Being a chosen isn't that bad. Did you know that Zelos is the chosen of Tethe'alla? And look how much respect he gets!"
"I saw Lloyd and Genis put a sack of burning trash and cow feces into his locker" Colette continued.
"Oh… That was them?" Raine asked a bit nervously.
Suddenly, a bright flash of light came from the window.
"Bloody hell." Raine said, getting up from her seat. "Well, looks like some crazy Desian Gang is attacking the Temple. Colette, be a good girl and wait here. Don't knock anything over, don't accidentally kill anyone, hell, don't even talk to anyone." Raine continued as she put on some kind of ninja mask, and a pair of night vision goggles. Then she pulled some kind of large firearm out of her desk drawer.
"I'm off." She said in a strangely unrecognizable voice. It was probably the effect of some module in her mask. Then she opened a window, and quickly jumped out of it, hoping from tree to tree at an alarmingly fast rate.
Walking back to the cafeteria, Colette pondered if she should have asked the professor if she had ever been a professional assassin at any given point in her life. Taking a quick glance out the window, she spotted a fat old man… the mayor? In any case, he was ridding on some kind of wingless dragon.
Colette sighed. If she went to the cafeteria now, she would be blamed for the large reptile destroying thousands of gal worth of property damage. It looked like there was nothing for her to do but go to the temple and watch Raine laid waste to the desians.
Sheena couldn't remember the amount of years it had been. 7? 8? Corrine couldn't remember either. All Shenna knew was that on this day, an undisclosed amount of years ago, Corrine and Bobby had been born. She was barley out of her diapers when the half-elves at the research institution were looking for a way to create the perfect summon spirit.
Finally, one unnamed square headed professor created it by mixing sugar, spice, everything nice, and a healthy does of viagra in a large bowl. As soon as he added the last ingredient, there was a large explosion. The results were astounding; he managed to create not one, but THREE artificial summon spirits. Well actually just two. The black one (who was now named bobby) ate the blue one. They never did learn his name. In any case, Sheena now took care of two summon spirits. The happy and optimistic Corrine, and the cynical, mean, and all around evil Bobby.
Today was their birthday, but Sheena had no time to throw a party for them. Yesterday, one of Mizuho's spies confirmed that Colette Brunel was Sylverant's new Chosen. This meant that Sheena would have to assassinate Colette, destroy the evidence, and then steal her boyfriend (if she had any. If she didn't, Sheena was of the hook). This had been a Mizuho tradition since the 60's.
Sheena, Corrine and Bobby had been hiding out in a tree for what seemed like the time it took for a new season of "The Sopranos" to come out, when Corrine let out a squeal of excitement.
"Shut up nerd." Bobby replied in a tone that would make any kindergartener run away in terror.
"No! Wait! The chosen is coming! Get ready to play my theme song!" She said hastily. Corrine nodded his head, and pulled out a large boom box he had stashed in the tree.
Just as Colette was approaching, Sheena jumped from the tree and landed in front of Colette. This caused her to stumble backwards leaving her in an extremely vulnerable position.
"Chosen of Sylvarant! Prepare to—WHAT THE FUCK?" Corrine was defiantly not playing her theme song. Instead, he was playing some kind of weird song that sounded like it had been taken directly out of a porn movie. Indeed, there was a lot of deep breathing, sleazy saxophone music, and the sound of springs moving up and down.
"Nice Job Fucktard." Bobby said, taking every opportunity to insult his poor brother. "I-I-I didn't mean to bring that C-D!" Corrine stammered, clearly embarrassed.
"I'll forgive you as long as you TURN THAT SHIT OFF!" Sheena yelled up to him.
Sheena turned to face Colette, but the frightened Chosen had already run off, and was no longer in sight.
END CHAPTER 2. I know this may be a bit much to ask, but could some people review this? I kinda want to know how I'm doing. Next chapter won't be up for a few days.
