THE ONE WHO HOLDS THE SKIES MEETS THE ONE WHO DESTROYED THE MOON


Namimori Elementary School

(Tsu-chan's POV)

"Look! It's Baka-Tsuki!"

Don't...Please...Don't...

"Yo Baka-Tsuki! Didn't you fail in Math again?!"

Tsu-chan isn't an idiot...

"She is such an idiot! Look, even her mother isn't here to pick her up today!"

Tsu-chan...is a good girl...

"She probably left her after seeing how much of an idiot she is!"

Why do all of you...hate Tsu-chan?


? Location

(Normal POV)

If we were to talk about this place, the first thing would be that there was too much to talk about. Orderly yet chaotic at the same time. All of the object were kept in an orderly manner but...

There are so many weird things among them. Two weird star-shaped hair-clips...A sword that looked as if it was made from a giant crystal...A walking stick... Old fashioned suits...Lots of screens floating in the air showing lots of different places...An old man walking among them with a pair of dowsing rods...Lots of old-

Wait! Back-up a bit!

...An old man walking around with a pair of dowsing rods?

"No...No...No..."

Alright, a weird old man walking around with a pair of dowsing rods.

"Again no...Gah! Why isn't there anything entertaining going on?!"

...Entertaining?

"My Entertainment Detector MkII isn't detecting anything! How can this be possible?! Nothing interesting has happened since that boy destroyed the Grail and it has already been one year! How hard-"

The rods...bent?

"Oh-ho! A potential source? Where is it now?...Hmm...Isn't this Japan? Now which prefecture?...OK..Loacation...Namimori?"

The screen was showing a school.

An elementary school.

"So my new source is probably a child?"

...

"Alright let's go!"


Namimori Elementary School

(Tsu-chan's POV)

Where is kaa-chan? I want to go home...

Tsu-chan is walking around the school, waiting for Tsu-chan's Kaa-chan.

Kaa-chan is Tsu-chan's only friend. And Tsu-chan loves her Kaa-chan!

Kaa-chan hugs Tsu-chan when Tsu-chan cries, and makes yummy food for Tsu-chan. Tsu-chan's Kaa-chan is the best Kaa-chan!

Someday, Tsu-chan will also make yummy food for Kaa-chan and-

"Oof!

What was-

"Hiee! I am sorry, Ojii-chan! Tsu-chan didn't see you!"


(Normal POV)

Who Tsu-chan-or rather, Sawada Tsukihime-had bumped into, was none other than the old man from earlier.

Said old man was looking at her rather kindly. Rather kindly for those who knew him that is!

He was also feeling rather...tingly.

"My chaos senses are tingling!"

"Eh?!"

"Oh sorry jou-chan. This ojii-san was just talking to himself. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with you're parents?"


(Old man's POV)

As I watched, the already rather dim spirit of the child dimmed even further. She was looking down with a rather tearful face and clenching her hands at her sides.

...Isn't naturally blonde hair a rarity in Japan?

"Tsu-chan's Kaa-chan is late. Tsu-chan is waiting for her Kaa-chan..."

"Then shouldn't you be waiting in front of your school? What if you get lost?"

"Eh?!"

I watched, rather amused by the child's rather rather cute reaction. She was looking all around her as if she wasn't aware that she was wandering rather aimlessly.

"Let me guess, you are lost aren't you?"

The child looked at me with an ashamed face.

"Tell you what? I am going to your school right now. I can walk you there."

"Eh?! A-Arigatou Ojii-chan!"

Ojii-chan eh?...Brings back a lot of memories...

However...

"Didn't your mother teach you to not talk to strangers?"

She looked really ashamed right now.

"Yes...But..."

"But?"

"Good-voice is telling Tsu-chan that Tsu-chan can trust ojii-chan..."

"Ho..." Something interesting.

"Tsu-chan is telling the truth! Sometimes, when Tsu-chan is in trouble, good voice tells Tsu-chan where to hide so that the bullies can't find Tsu-chan! And they can never find Tsu-chan when Tsu-chan listens to Good-voice!"

Her fiestiness in defence of her "Good-voice" is rather cute.

However...This "Good-voice"...perhaps a Psychic?

"Now what does this Good-voice sound like?"

"Eh? Good-voice sounds like Tsu-chan..."

So she is closer to a Seer than a Psychic. How interesting...

I lightly brushed my hand on the top of her head as I uttered an Analysis spell.

Hmmm...

Magic Circuits...Rather few...none of them having a special connection to the mind...Element: Fire...Origin...Now what is this...And a seal...

My-my

"Ojii-chan?"

I looked down at the child who was looking at me rather anxiously.

"What is it, dear?"

"Ojii-chan was making a weird face just now..."

Busted! Evasive maneuvers!

"It is nothing jou-chan. Ojii-chan was thinking. However..."

"Why are you injured?"

I have to admit, she was rather quick in hiding her bruised shoulder.

"...Tsu-chan tripped..."

"Usually when one trips, they hurt their knees, not their shoulders."

She flinched.

"You were talking about bullies earlier weren't you? Did they do this?"

Now she looked rather apologetic.

"It's just...Tsu-chan's classmates don't like Tsu-chan...They call Tsu-chan 'Baka'...B-But Tsu-chan wasn't always a Baka! Tsu-chan used to be smart and one day...Tsu-chan suddenly became a baka..."

Hmm...Definitely sounds suspicious...

"Do you remember anything from that time. From the day just before it...happened...?"

Her thinking face was rather cute...Reminds me of when Arcueid was a child...Haah...Good times...

"Eto..."

"Hmm?"

"Tsu-chan's tou-chan had come with his boss that day...But Tsu-chan can't remember anything else..."

A suspect...

"By the way, where is your tou-chan? You didn't talk about him much."

She looked rather sad.

"Tsu-chan's Kaa-chan said that Tsu-chan's Tou-chan has a very big job somewhere faaar away. She said things like 'Arctic' and 'penguins' and 'traffic'. Tsu-chan thinks that Tou-chan has to look after cute penguins!"

Childhood innocence...So precious...

However...The Arctic and penguins? They shouldn't belong to the same sentence...

"Ne, jou-chan?"

"Huh?"

"Do you want me to show you a magic trick?"

"Ojii-chan knows magic?!"

I chuckled."A little bit, yes."

"Can you show me?! Please, please, please?"

Such enthusiasm...

I placed my left hand on top of her head.

The Gaelic spell I just used was a small feat, if I say so myself. As long as the injuries affect only the muscles and skin tissues, this spell will completely heal them.

However, if said injuries were to affect the bones, blood vessels or worse, the nerves, then it will get tricky.

"-!"

The child-no Tsu-chan-was looking at her injuries in shock. She must have felt the pain fading and fet rather confused.

After discovering that all of her injuries had faded...

"Was that magic just now, Ojii-chan?"

"Did you like it?"

"Yes!..Umm..."

"Hmm"

"...Teach me..."

"Yes?"

"Can you teach me how to do magic?"

Haa, the legendary upturned eyes...A deadly weapon mostly used by women and puppies to get what they want...

Truly, so frightening.

"I will.."

"Yaay!" She was jumping around in joy.

"But!"The jumping stopped.

"You must keep it a secret."

Now she was looking rather confused."Why?"

"No one who can't use magic should know about it."

Again,"Why?"

"If people know that you can use magic, wouldn't bad people come and take you away?"

"Hiee! Tsu-chan doesn't want to be taken!"

"Hush! We are nearly at your school!"

Indeed, we had nearly reached it and I could see a brown-haired adult-version of Tsu-chan looking around rather frantically.

Must be her mother.

"I will come to your room at night."

"Eh?"

"You said that you wanted to learned magic right? It will be easier to keep it a secret if I do it in your room."

"Oh! Okay!"

"By the way, what is your name?"

"Tsu-chan's name is Sawada Tsukihime! What is ojii-chan's name?"
A chuckle."Just call me Zel. You are not old enough to know how to spell my full name."

"Okay Zel ojii-chan!"

Looking at the child running over to her mother, I thought,

"Truly, this is why life is interesting"


And that's a wrap!
