My Twilight Serenade
Chapter 2: Nightmare
"You mean....she's not here?"
"No! She left America to get away from you! And I can understand why, now LEAVE!"
".....You know...I will find her....and make her mine...."
"BEGONE!"
".....I swear....I'll find you.........I'll find you.....Iron Maiden Jeanne...."
Jeanne was starting to get a little frightened. Emily was pretty violent when she had something large in her grasp. The young iron maiden only hoped that she wouldn't destroy her luggage with her iron arms. As Emily cleared a rather large path, Alyssa continued to drag her. The trio strolled along the long path and they pretty much walked throughout the entire school. When Jeanne really noticed exactly how big the campus was, she knew there was one good outcome of it all....
She'd get a decent exercise...
After passing the East Wing and strolling along through the South Wing they finally approached the West Wing. Jeanne asked them why they couldn't just go out through the front and avoid going all the way around the school, their reply: "It's our way of showing you around!"
Jeanne always got creeped out when the two talked in unison. It was like they were telepathic....and they probably were.
Approaching the building, Emily swung Jeanne's back at someone again, but this time it exploded and all of Jeanne's personal items cluttered the sidewalk and the grass. Everyone stared.
"Oh no!" Jeanne quickly tore from Alyssa's grasp and ran to the pile of fancy day outfits and lingerie. Blushing from extreme embarrassment the girl gathered all of her frilly bras and underwear first. Alyssa smacked her twin in the back of the head. She kneeled down and helped Jeanne gather her clothes and apologized a million times to her. Jeanne just shook her head, increasing her speed as she collected more items. Emily quickly sent the crowd on their way, then jogging to Jeanne and apologizes.
Once everything was back in the suitcase Jeanne held it close to her and smiled weakly, motioning the two to carry on.
Walking to the door, Emily opened it for Jeanne and her sister. The silver haired nun examined the room. It looked like a five star hotel. Glancing at her friends she noticed that they were amazed as well. Perhaps their dorm wing wasn't as nice as hers. Jeanne snapped out of her fantasies and walked to the front desk, smiling politely. As she stood there, looking like a model in front of a paparazzi she waited until the receptionist noticed her standing there. Finally, after a few moments Jeanne cleared her throat to get the lady's attention. She glanced up at Jeanne before directing her full attention towards her.
"Can I help you?" she asked, showing the same kind of smile Jeanne did.
"Ummm....I'm the new student, my name is Jeanne—"Before Jeanne could finish she gasped softly from what she saw. A very, very frightened receptionist. You could easily see the fear in her eyes. Jeanne blinked at the frozen woman. "A-Are you alright?" she asked, raising her eyebrow in concern.
The receptionist shook out of it and smiled at the concerned little girl. "Yes, I'm fine..." She turned around and browsed a huge framed board that had keys hanging on every square inch of thing. Finally, finding the right key the woman plucked it off the board and placed it on the desk in front of Jeanne. "Top floor, room 468" the receptionist smiled sweetly at Jeanne. The Iron Maiden couldn't help but blush. Sweeping the key off the desk and catching it before it hits the ground she smiled at the lady. "Thank you!"
Jeanne turned around and motioned her friends to come. As the three walked to the elevator and stepped inside, Emily being a lot more careful with Jeanne's luggage, the receptionist turned back at the happy girl and glared, biting her thumb nail, something haunting her mind. 'How can someone so small be so powerful?'
Upon reaching the top floor, the elevator doors swooshed open. The girls blinked at the beautifully decorated halls. The whole area looked like a palace fit for a princess. Emily stared in awe. While Emily started to drool, her twin observed the doors. On each side of the hall every door was about three feet about. Alyssa cocked an eyebrow, coming to a conclusion. "No matter how nice this place might be....it's still going to be very tiny. You know that right Jeanne?"
Jeanne nodded, coming to the same conclusion. "Yeah...but I don't mind." The three stepped out of the elevator and strolled down the empty hall. Every step they took gave a loud and eerie echo. Jeanne shivered. "Is it like this in every dorm building?"
Emily tried to smile, "Yeah, I guess the higher you are...the louder the echo....kinda scary yes,"
"But at least it's not haunted...." Alyssa finished Emily's sentence. Jeanne chuckled, it really wouldn't matter if it was haunted she was able to take just about anything.
When the three reached the end of the hallway a door stood in front of them, it read 468. Emily gulped. Jeanne just sighed, reaching into her pocket and pulling out the key she slipped it into the keyhole and swung the door open. Three female heads peeked into the room. It looked pretty average, a one room dorm with two decent sized beds and a little bathroom to the left.
Alyssa examined the room. "It's pretty empty...I guess your roommate hasn't showed up yet." Jeanne was sort of disappointed. She wanted to be the last one in, so she can observe the things her roommate as has and maybe learn a bit about her. The silver haired maiden turned to her friends and smiled. "Thanks for all of your help. I think I got it from here."
The twins grinned and set Jeanne's luggage by the doorway. "Alright, we'll see you later." Alyssa waved. "Aye! Bye! And good luck with your roomy!" Emily gave a Yoh-ish smile. The two left Jeanne's sight.
Jeanne dragged her luggage inside the room and shut the door. She sighed and smiled slightly. "At least I'm far away from that Asakura....he'll never find me here...." She slammed her two suitcases on the bed closest to the window and began to unpack.
A little later....
Jeanne buttoned the last button on her white blouse. She dusted off her black plaid skirt and adjusted her frilly socks. Smiling, enjoying her basic uniform, she glided to the doorway and slipped on her black dress shoes. Turning back around Jeanne observed her dorm that replicated a church. There was a crucifix hanging above her bed, a bible resting on the nightstand, a small framed painting of God praying standing beside the bible, and many flowers in vases sitting on almost every flat surface.
Jeanne was very pleased. Giggling softly she grabbed her schoolbag and left her dorm, locking it behind her.
Strolling to one elevator, she pressed the down button and the double doors swooshed open and Jeanne stepped in, pressing the 1st floor button, the doors closed and the elevator glided down.
While one elevator went down...another came up. When the doors flung open a man stepped out, his long dark hair covering his face. Stepping out of the elevator, holding only one suitcase he strolled down the hall to find his room. Approaching the door that stood in front of him with numbers that read 468 he slipped in his key and twisted the doorknob, slowly pushing the door open.
Observing his surrounding he smirked. "So...she already got here..." He slowly closed the door behind him and unpacks.
With Jeanne....
Jeanne ran throughout the whole campus, trying to find her way into the main building. And since there were about a few thousand kids outside all at once trying to get inside, this made Jeanne quest even longer. After about five minutes of moving at the pace of a snail, Jeanne started to grow impatient. Now it was time to take drastic measures...that is, if you call pushing and shoving others drastic. Well, it was for Jeanne, being the perfect saint and all.
Jeanne took a deep breath and rolled up her long white sleeves. Getting ready she made her way through the crowds, pushing and shoving everyone in her way. Of course the little saint apologized for every push.
Finally, upon reaching the main building Jeanne flew in and zoomed to find her class, the speed of Sonic the Hedgehog. She finally reached her fist class, World History. Slowly opening the door she poked her head inside. Jeanne slid one leg into the room, then moved her torso in more, then her other leg. Closing the door she took a few more steps into the room. Straight ahead she saw huge windows that were about fifteen feet tall. To her right was a desk and a huge chalkboard behind it. To the left was a stairway of desks, the kind you see in universities.
"Heeey! Jeanne! Up here!" squealed a familiar high pitched voice. Jeanne glanced up and saw Emily, sitting near the very top of the desk stairway, waving down at her and Alyssa, scooting away pulling the "Pretend Not To Know Her" act. She turned towards them smiling. Strolling up the steps towards them, Alyssa, at a fair distance from Emily rested her head in her palm that rested on the desk.
"Well, you look nice in that uniform." Alyssa complimented. Jeanne smiled. "Thanks." She slid in beside Emily, sitting on the edge of the desk. Slipping out her textbook she opened it and skimmed through the pages. Without her noticing, someone slipped into the room. Slowly walking towards the Iron Maiden he placed his hand on the corner of Jeanne's textbook.
"Whoever thought we would have history together." the person beside Jeanne said in a pleased tone.
Jeanne suddenly froze. She knew that voice all to well, and in her frightened mind she prayed it wasn't Satan. Gulping softly she tilted her head up and her eyes suddenly widen when her eyes met his. She stuttered to get words out of her mouth. Luckily she was able to....well...more like shouting out words.
"H-HAO?!?!?!?!?!" she ended up screaming. This had to be her WORST nightmare....
ChibiLaryla: :) Whoa....poor Jeanne, talk about a surprise. Well, I'm glad I was able to update today. I mean, I might have to evacuate Florida tomorrow because of hurricane Ivan. And to other Floridians, be safe.
