The Promise - 1 Chapter - Silent Suporter

Disclaimer : I do not own Angelic Layer, I only used that fantastic world to create my storie. I do however own pretty much all characters on this fan fic.

Flames and good reviews are welcome! My first fan fic, hope you'll like it!

Blinxi.

Catlin looked up, in front of her on the shelves, were hundreds of eggs, not normal ones, angel eggs and one of them contained her future. Catlin looked around the Piffle Princess shop, next to her was a little girl, maybe with five or six, she had already chosen an egg and was holding it tightly.

"Mom lets go, I still have to choose the cloths!" – The little girl was saying grabbing her mother's hand has she walked away.

Now Catlin was completely alone with the eggs, which should I choose? She knew that they were all alike but deep inside she also knew that this was her most important decision, she had to keep her promise, now and forever.

She closed her eyes and stretched her right arm touching the eggs slightly with her hand, first to the right then to the left, she stopped and grabbed a random egg, what better way to choose one that this? In her hands was a blue angel egg with two little wings in the front, she grabbed it tightly, just like the little girl and moved to the clothes section.

The clothes section was very different from the eggs part, full of different fabrics and pre-made clothes, it was a room of colour and opportunity. Catlin had decided to do the clothes herself and already had a sketch in mind, so she choose a vibrant black fabric, a shiny pink fabric, two black cords and two black sabrinas (A/N: That the name we give in Portugal to this kind of ballet shoes look alike, don't know the name in English sorry…).

Just perfect! – she thought has she made her way to the cash register a little later, already with her were the egg, the clothes and all the accessorises she would need a little laptop was also in the tiny basket.

She arrived home half an hour later: - I'm home! - She shouted when she opened the door. No one home, just typical! Before it was never like that. No, I mustn't think about it! I have a goal and I have to concentrate on it. Taking off her shoes she headed to her room, up the stairs the third room on the left, her room and her world.

Moving the books from her desk she placed everything she bought there, first she should read her egg instructions, she already knew by heart what she needed to do but she wanted to be sure.

Open the egg under water, wash your angel carefully and you're ready to start. Go ahead and remember be a good Deus. Catlin read all the others advices and tips and headed back to her bathroom. She filled the bathtub and took of her clothes, I also need a bath if I take care of both things now I won't waste time. She carefully placed her egg on the side of the bathtub got in and washed her hair, first I take care of me and then I will have all night to take care of her, he would have liked that…her thoughts wonder off and she closed her eyes then like she just remember something she finished washing her hair and grabbed the egg, she stopped for two seconds, preparing herself and really slowly she dived together with the egg, coming back to surface she opened the egg, in her hands was now a tiny angel, My angel! She thought has she dived again.

About fifteen minutes later, fully dressed, she wanderer into her room again, hungrily she opened all the accessorises she was going to need, first the angels hair, she had choosed a pink one, putting it in the angels head she grabbed a scissor. Catlin didn't wanted it short, but she also didn't wanted it that long, she looked at herself on the mirror, that was hanging on her closet door, her green eyes were somewhat tired and her straight blond hair was still wet, she had it cut it kind of short and she didn't want a matching angel, maybe a little after the shoulders was a good length.

She liked the idea so she started to cut it, first a little bit than another, soon it was just like she imagined it. She decided to attach the both cords, on the right side of the angel's hair just like two ribbons.

Now I need to choose my angels stats, I also have to come up with a name…While she was thinking someone knocked on her door.

"Yes?"

"Honey it's me I just passed by to change clothes I'm going to head back to the office you can eat anything that is on the refrigerator ok?" – It was Catlin's mother, she had popped her head trough the door, her blond hairwas tidy uo, and her brown eyes were dry, kind of tired I guess,she was dressing a black suit, Mom is wearing a lot of black lately…Catlin thought, she looked up to her mothers face and tried to smile, her mothers face was looking even more miserable than the last time she had saw her, she wonderer if her father was looking the same.

!Ok mom, don't worry, do you know if dad is going to be here in time for dinner?" – Catlin asked hopefully, she hadn't see her father for three days, she was hoping, that because today was Friday, she was able to, at least, have dinner with him.

"No honey I don't think so, I talked to him a while ago he seemed pretty busy, look why don't you call him I'm sure he would love to talk with you."

Yeah right, he doesn't even answer the phone how my mom is able to talk to him I don't know….

"Look honey I have to go, kisses have a good night." – Catlin's mother said making her let go of here thoughts. My mom is almost the same, but she at least talks to me…

Letting go of her thoughts again Catlin started the laptop, carefully putting her angel in a tiny ring thing that emanated light.

She made a soundless: "Wow!" When she saw the angel standing up like it was flying inside of the little ring. The angel opened her pink eyes, Catlin loved, right away, the way the hair was the same colour that the eyes. It was a very pretty angel.

Looking back at the monitor she started to think in what kind of angel she wanted, she had heard all about Hikaru the champion angel from Japan that has an emphasis on speed, but for Catlin balance was also important, she knew that from her ballet lessons so she decided to put a equal emphasis in speed and in balance, strength was probably her loose end, but Hikaru also didn't depended on strength. And Catlin had a plan, she hadn't train all this time for nothing. The name, I can't forget the name, I don't know what to choose, maybe, may… That's it I don't know if that has some meaning in Chinese, or something, but it's a beautiful name and so the clothes will kind of match. After pressing really slowly the letters M-A-Y-U and then hitting enter the laptop made a little bip

So now that this is taken care off I have to do the clothes! Ok not really make them, that's kind of a job for Gina…Sooo to work! She was thinking in something girlish but at the same time that would give Mayu full mobility. She started to sketch a black Chinese kimono that would go only a little before the knees, it had a 1, 18 inches crack on both sides, that way she would be able to move her legs, the right corner had three pink flowers, the big one right on the corner the second was on the top the big one and the third on the side. She looked at her sketch she loved the long sleeves, but she wasn't entering a beauty contest. Picking her rubber she erased the right sleeve. Ow, this way she is girlish but has that fighter side, but it's something missing…

Looking back at the draw she started to sketch black leggings that would end right before the ankles. She just sketched the black sabrinas she had bought and it was done.

"Mayu your outfit is going to be perfect, tomorrow we will talk to Gina and ask her to make your clothes, and maybe she even makes me those fantastic pancakes. Gina is the maid you see, she probably the only one that cares about me, but I'll tell you all about her and my family some other day now we both need some sleep."

She thought about dinner, but she wasn't hungry anyway so she just put on her pyjamas and climbed into the bed.

"Tomorrow is going to be a great day Mayu!" Catlin said with a little sigh just before she fell asleep.

Mayu was already starting to be an important friend to Catlin like a silent supporter, Catlin fell asleep that night holding Mayu tightly.

So? What you think,... review! I just wanted to know if it's to short or something, did my best to describe both, Catlin and Mayu, I'm already in love with both, lol, hope you're too!

Thankyouverymuch
