Another chapter friends! So yeah this is longer than usual but I had some more time, so I wrote some more.
Reviews:
Neptunia: I don't really have a problem with anyone who ships incest, but still I guess it is because I am not used to those kinds of ships. I don't know it's just me.
Kazuyaeu: Like I said, I don't have a problem with incest shippers, but I don't know it just feels abnormal to me, but could my opinion change? Probably who knows?
DragonxDelinquent: Yeah I think I would like writing about her discovery of some of the powers that comes with the Left Eye. Plus for pairing I am like half and half. One half of me is saying do a pairing but later on, and the other is saying, ew romance.
I hope you all enjoy. ᕙ( * •̀ ᗜ •́ * )ᕗ
-Misaki-
I woke up, my head was pounding and I felt gross. I was lying on my side, and I felt a sharp pain near my hip as I went up in a sitting position.
Wait a minute, The Cerberus and the sword attached to my arm! I looked around, then I saw the ice blue whip from yesterday.
So it wasn't a dream afterall...
"How are you feeling?" I heard Aeron ask softly.
"I feel okay so far...just my side hurts, and I want to go back to sleep." I replied, I hadn't heard anything from Cerberus, the whip was on my desk, I stood up fully and went to grab it. So I put it in my dresser, making sure to hide it underneath some clothes.
I was going to take a shower, that way, I could feel myself clean and wake myself up. I was still a bit drowsy.
I entered the bathroom and nearly gasped at my reflection, I knew yesterday's battle against the Cerberus was bad, but I looked horrible. Closing the door behind me and grabbing a towel from the closet. I turned the water nozzle on, waiting until it was warm enough and I undressed.
My muscles relaxed under the warm water, and I let out a tired sigh, closing my eyes.
Opening my eyes once more, I was in the familiar spot where I first met Aeron.
"What is the Left Eye?" I asked him, as I looked over my shoulder to see him approaching me.
He cleared his throat and we both sat down on the soft grass. "It has been a long time since anyone has seen a User of the Left Eye. So somethings are a little hazy to even myself." He confessed.
"Oh, well at least I wont be alone in learning this stuff." I replied sounding relieved, in reality I was and I was a little peeved. I didn't ask to be suddenly thrown into this stuff. I definitely never asked to fight a creature that could swallow me whole.
"If I have awakened, then that must mean the Right Eye is awakened as well." Aeron said, however, I didn't like how worried he sounded.
"You make it sound like it's a bad thing, not a good one."
"Well it depends."
"Depends on what exactly?"
"Well most of the time, the Left and Right Eye holders were enemies, rather than allies who helped each other in their duties as Overseers." Aeron explained,"Mostly the Right Eye assisted God and the Angels, the Left Eye assisted the demons and the Maou."
"Maou? Shouldn't it just be Lucifer?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"That is what it says in the Bible, but in reality there are the Four Maou. Lucifer, Leviathan, Beelzebub, and Asmodeus. They are the Four who rule over the Underworld." He explained.
"But aren't there fallen angels too?"
"Well that is a little more complicated, since they neither wield demonic powers like actual demons nor do they have the grace of god. They're in between."
Then I remembered when I saw Azazel fly down, he had black feathery wings,"So then Azazel is a Fallen Angel."
"I have gotten that aura from him, yes. However, I do think you should be careful, back in earlier times, Fallen Angels would pretend to be the allies of the Left and Right eye, but then Kill them, which would throw off balance until another wielder was born."
I had a sudden chill run down my spine,"So your saying, is that the guy that wants to be my apparent tutor, wants to possibly kill me too?"
Aeron nodded slowly,"I hope not, he seemed to have no ill intentions against you yesterday. Not to mention, you were unconscious, and no offense but that would be the easiest time to take action against you."
"So then what should I do?" I asked, all of this was just really difficult to take in.
"I think we should just be careful for now, there's no need to risk anything." I nodded in confirmation.
"Don't you think you've forgotten about someone?" I narrowed my eyes.
"So you have decided on finally joining us Cerberus?" I heard Aeron ask in a not so friendly tone, and instead of a usual kind smile, he had a dark glare instead.
Cerberus, instead of his usual monstrous form, was more human looking. Cerberus was a he, as far as I could tell. Black hair in small tufts, he wore what seemed to be a medieval like armor, that was all black. The edges were colored a pale grey, almost looking white. He had what was near metal gauntlets other than the fact that he didn't wear the gloves. The shoulder armors were spiked in a small upwards curve. He kept his eerie yellow eyes, and they held an amused expression.
"What do you want?" I asked and couldn't help but sound wary,
"Well I was going to tell you to hurry up since you've had your shower for a good 45 minutes, but you can take your time."
I nearly gasped, he was right, I was too busy talking to Aeron that I hadn't even noticed how long I've been here. So I went back to reality.
I was out of the shower when I opened my eyes, when I cleaned the mirror, I saw that I looked normal. Thank god for warm showers. I opened the bathroom door, no one was around so I went to my room to change.
My side wasn't as sore, so now that I was appropriately dressed to be allowed in public, I headed downstairs.
Mom was in the kitchen, making breakfast, Dad was at the table, reading the newspaper and Issei was in his room doing who knows what.
I sat on the couch, taking the remote, and channel surfing, this is what I did not like about television on the weekends, the only played the good stuff early on in the morning or really late at night. I left it one the cooking channel, not like I could cook too well, I mean I could make toast and instant ramen. That would be okay right?
Wrong.
I didn't want to stay home all day today, but most of my friends had plans on the weekend, and I really want to do anything either. Plus I don't think I had any training today from Azazel. If I did, I hoped I didn't have to run like yesterday. Before I saw the Cerberus, the man made me run a few miles, and if I stopped, then I had to restart. I restarted a lot.
I spent a good portion of the morning in my room after breakfast, my headphones in my ears. I think I would rather go back to bed, but then again, I would probably be awake for the rest of the night.
Instead I just got up, grabbed my purse, and my phone. I might as well do something about this Sacred Gear business.
While not going to find Azazel, I had instead decided to buy some groceries for Mom. I had the piece of paper on what to buy in my hands, not to mention mom put some coupons in my purse.
I was in the shopping district, plus I saw some kids from school. Mostly First Years. Some second years, and a few third years here and there. What I didn't expect however was to be suddenly tackled into a bear hug.
"I haven't seen you in forever!" Said person yelled, getting some stares, they had a tight hold on me, so I was surprised that I was still breathing.
Loosening my self from their grasp, and I took some good breathes while doing so, I gave them an awkward smile,"Hina...you're still hyper as ever."
Hina was a slightly shorter blonde haired girl. Not to mention Hina was and still is my best friend. You see, we both went to the same middle schools, however, I was more quiet than now and I didn't really like talking to people if I didn't have to. But Hina was my polar opposite, she was sociable, and a lot more talkative.
She would know when I didn't want to do something and wouldn't push it. Plus I was teased because of my brother and his friends, but I could care less about them, she stood up for me although she didn't have to. I still appreciated the thought. That's how we really became friends. However, when we were finally going into high school,she and her father moved to a different town. We sometimes talked over the phone, and hung out on rare occasions, but still you couldn't blame me for missing my best friend.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, as she finally released me fully.
The smile on the blondes face widened, and I swear she could probably put a smiling baby to shame,"Papa and I are moving back! Isn't it great? It'll be like it used to!" She exclaimed.
I smiled at her,"Of course."
"What are you doing?" She asked looking at the paper in my hands.
"Ah, I'm just getting some groceries that Mom had asked me to get for her."I explained with putting the paper in my pocket. We both continued walking through the district, until we reached the grocery store.
"I'll be here, I don't have anything planned for today, I doubt that some people remembered me," Hina seemed a little put off by that, but then her cheerful aura returned.
"I mean if you want to,"I replied with a small shrug, and the automatic sliding doors opened, and I grabbed a cart, I stopped short by the aisle nearby.
Hina stared at me in curiousity,"What are you doing?" She asked.
I gave her a look,"Well are you getting in or what?" I motioned towards the larger part in the cart,"We always did this whenever Mom took us here, and what better way to commemorate you coming back?"
"You could buy lunch." She offered,"Plus, I'm not that small anymore!" She whined.
"Oh please, you're tiny, you can fit." After we stared at each other,for a while, she complied and went in.
"How do you do that?"
"What?"
"That thing you did earlier!"
"...and that thing was?"
"You're just teasing me aren't you?"
"Squeal on me and I'll only deny it."
After a few moments of silence and passing her some of the items I needed, which she placed in the cart, we laughed. Quieting down when we got strange looks.
While I continued shopping, the thoughts of the sacred gear stuff left my mind. I finally felt normal, at least as far as I could be. Anyway, Hina got out of the shopping cart, and I carried most of the groceries, she was talking about the things she had done back at her old highschool. I listened, and was somewhat concerned on some of the things she said she had done.
'And then you wouldn't believe how the teacher reacted, I swear it was like their head was going to burst with how angry they were!" Hina laughed as she told me the story.
"Well I mean, I wouldn't be the only one upset if everything in my room, well their classroom really, was painted a highlighter yellow." Those kinds of bright colors hurt my eyes if I stared at them for too long too much.
"Well they didn't get too upset when they realized we gave them some gift cards as an apology, we still had to repaint the room back to its original colors." Hina then added.
"I'm just surprised that she didn't realize it was you." I replied with a light shrug.
"I just have that innocent baby face ya know?"
I shook my head with a light laugh. However, I felt something was off. When I realized what was happening, I then saw Hina fall unconscious.
"H-Hina! Wake up! We have to get out of here!" I attempted to try and carry the unconscious blonde, and try not to drop the groceries. That's when I heard a laugh behind me.
"For being a wielder of the Left Eye you really don't look like much." It was a man wearing the trench coat and the fedora. He was the guy I knew I saw earlier when I went to pep talk Issei before his date, and then the time where I saw my brother impaled with a spear.
"You're a fallen angel aren't you?" I asked, and to be honest, although I didn't show it, I was honestly terrified. I was the Left Eye, but I was still learning.
"And what if I am?" He asked in a challenging tone,"You don't really have the skill set to do anything."
Oh we'll see about that. The black sword from when I fought Cerberus appeared in my hand. Then I grabbed the handle from the ice whip, as it unraveled from my waist.
The man seemed to know where the ice based weapon was from, and I was satisfied with seeing the look of shock on his face. Then his face changed, and a smirk replaced the blank look.
"Now can I ask your name or am I just going to have to make one up as I go?" I asked, raising the sword in his direction.
"My name is Dohnaseek, and I am just here to warn you." He replied crossing his arms.
I gave him an apprehensive look,"Warn me? As far as I can tell, you're actually threatening me, seeing as how you made my friend fall unconscious." While speaking I was able to balance Hina and the groceries in one arm, although I probably should not be twisting my arm like that. Oops.
The fedora wearing male scoffed,"I just put a small sleeping spell on her. When she wakes up, she'll feel like nothing ever happened."
I stared at him.
"Now then, onto the matter that's most important,"He began, clearing his throat,"I have to ask that you stay out of our way. We must complete the mission for our Master. It will be for the greater good of the fallen angels. However, if you do interfere we will use any means of force without mercy."
I continued to stare at him blankly and before I could think on what I was saying, I told him,"For which Master, Azazel, or somone else?"
His eyes widened and then narrowed. The next thing I knew, I was dodging those blue spears I had seen from the other night.
It was difficult to run without the risk of dropping Hina and the groceries, but I managed to do it somehow...just barely but I managed.
Where were the people? I mean seriously, this was happening in the middle of the day! He was pretty fast in throwing those things. So when he wasn't looking, at least I hoped he wasn't, I laid Hina gently behind a bush, making sure she was hidden. I don't even know where I put the groceries, I just knew they weren't in sight.
I grabbed the silver handle, the whip slamming into the spears, freezing them, and causing them to shatter. Whichever ones had not been frozen were ones I was able to dodge.
Noticing that he was probably searching for my friend, I kept my guard up. I had a sudden realization, he let me hide her.
A group of spears made their way towards the bush, that's when I felt things slow down, and all I knew was that I was running.
-Dohnaseek-
The Left Eye wielder was as strong as the priest reported. This made this a lot less boring.
One moment, I see the girl running, the next I see a dark brown cheetah with some lighter brown spots in her place. Now the blonde haired girl that I had seen with her was now on her back. The panther had the bags held in its teeth. The whip was now an ice blue collar around their neck, and the black sword they had was gone.
She had the gall to growl at me, I flew down to the ground, and but stopped short.
She was glaring at me, her right eye a light brown color, but her left was glowing an ominous red.
I was frozen in place, and the holy spear in my hands disintegrated. I have felt many things, but never have I felt intimidation like this.
Then she ran, with her companion and what she was carrying.
As soon as she did, I felt relief wash over me, the glowing red eye seemed to be pictured in my mind. My face had a dazed expression, but then I went to normal, and my lip curled into a smirk, looks like I had something good to report back to Raynare.
I was right, things were getting interesting.
I was very exited about this. Very excited. Now if only there was something to do about the group of devils here. Then the plan could be going off without a hitch.
We'd be the strongest of the Three Factions no matter what and at any cost. That was assured.
So yeah now we meet Donna. Mr. Trenchy, I was a little sad that he died, I liked his coat.
Count so far:
Kiba: 12
Vali: 5
Issei: 14
Poor silver haired child, only like 5 people vote for him. It makes me feel bad for him. But then again he did kind of betray everybody so I can kind of see why. So...
Anyway, until next time friends! (*ゝω・)ノ
