A/N: Not much to say tonight, sorry. Well, actually I do have this to say: Thank you all very much for all the reviews you have been giving me! It means a lot to me and gives me the motivation I need to write each chapter.
Lyra the Sorceress of Scholars -- No, the dragon wasn't necessary, but I wanted to add her.
MisoGirl -- Er... I kinda forgot her, didn't I? Well here she is!
Pooch -- Uh, Satella was there, I just forgot to mention her...
SenescingBink -- Thank you!
ChrnoCreations -- Uuummm, theoretically twenty. tegan new -- Thank you for the review!
Sister-Rosette-Christopher -- Here it is!
While the others had been sitting around the table in the abandoned library Florette had taken Satella aside to tell her about the glove and the jewels, then she had given her the other jewels to use. And now Satella was sitting on her bed staring at them in their velvet and satin case resting on her lap.
A Hexen die Juwel, huh? But how did I know the right words to use?
Florette had told her that she would eventually remember.
Whatever that means...
"Satella!" Her mother called from downstairs, "You're going to be late for school!"
Giving a small start Satella looked at the clock – and got dressed in record time.
She gave a sigh of relief as the school came into view. Standing by the entrance gate were Rosette and Chrono. She winced when she saw how close they were standing together. It wasn't so much the proximity as it was... How natural it seemed, almost like they had been that close for years.Maybe they are the reincarnations of that nun and Devil... She thought ruefully.
She sighed, then put on a cheerful smile and called out to Chrono. Then the now small dragon's head popped up out of Rosette's back-pack to look at Satella – who tripped and nearly fell flat on her face from shock.
What is that doing at school? She thought incredulously.
She turned her attention to Rosette, about to ask the violent girl what she thought she was doing bringing that dragon to school, but then saw the look on her's and Chrono's faces and realized that it must have snuck into the girl's back-pack.
The appearance of the creature quickly drew a crowd. Thankfully they just thought that she was one of those cute robot pets that had recently become so popular. Though, how they missed the fact that the dragon didn't have any of the normal seams that those robots do she couldn't quite figure out.
Thank God their a bunch of idiots...
She got to the crowd of teens a shooed them all away and they quickly dispersed.
"Well, since everyone seems to be to stupid to realize what she is I guess there's no problem in her coming to school with you guys."
"Um, Satella..."
She raised an eyebrow at Chrono, who had just spoken.
"I think the reason the other students didn't seem to notice what Tiara is might have more to do with Tiara then their personal intelligence..."
"What do you mean?"
"Tiara is telepathic."
"Oh. Who's Tiara?"
"I'm Tiara."
Satella stared at the little dragon, blinking owlishly and feeling a little shell-shocked.
She can talk...
"Most dragons can." Chrono informed her.
The class rep turned her attention to Chrono and blinked owlishly at him as well. Had she said that out loud?
"Uh... No, I'm a telepath too. You kind of broadcast your thoughts loudly..."
"Ah." She squeaked.
Rosette snickered.
"What are you snickering for?" Satella demanded, "You can't tell me that he hasn't read your thoughts too!"
"Your right, but it really doesn't bother me."
"How can it not bother you?" She asked the other girl incredulously.
"She sees or hears whatever I'm thinking about when I'm emotionally charged and, given how often that is, there aren't many secrets between us."
"...Oh..."
She would have thought that kind of thing would make people very nervous around each other, not more comfortable. But there they are, standing as relaxed in each other's presence as she had ever seen anyone. She suddenly found she was envious of them.
Though Satella didn't know it yet that was the moment she gave up on getting Chrono as her boyfriend. She would never come between them.
Putting a smile on she said, "Come on!" And led the way to their first class.
A/N: Sorry, that's all I've got for now...
