O Lord have mercy! ☇ curiosity

blissfinder:

 Ibara had not been expecting much excitement within the first week at all,hardly from what she’d anticipated. But that — That had been an ugly sound just now, an ugly one indeed. It had made her jump, tearing her away from wherever she was going previous to said incident. — What was worse. There was no cued uproar that followed, or any immediate rush for help. Which meant she’d better do something about it. Figuring that even if there was help on the way if she stood there and did nothing - - -well, she only imagined it for the worse. She had to find out what was behind it -or who was in danger, most importantly. 

- Right, so this would be her cue for her to get moving! Ibara dutifully sped through the flights of stairs that led her all the way up to the roof, screeching to a halt. 

It came from here, she was sure of it, now where was that somebody who’s safety who might or might not be in jeopardy if she didn’t locate the one responsible, and fas —!

- - t. Oh thank goodness, there was a person present and they were —Intact? Or so it seemed by the looks of it. It could have been worse. Her shoulders heave from the tolls of her run, bolting forward. ‘- Scuse me, is everything alright!?’ She rushes over to the woman in course of mid-flight, but …rather than reading the situation at hand, her earnestness overrides her intuition. And so, the woman is halted abruptly and more or less cornered. Grabbing her by the shoulders, the sister is gently throttled. ‘Are you hurt! - I was sure I heard something, so I came running, and.’ They were strangers, no doubt about it. — But the woman looked positively shellshocked—!

 But of course, it doesn’t take her that long to pipe down and her eyes flit about the scene yet again for the cause of commotion. She finally glances down before them, stepping up next to the sister and spots the unmistakable token of demise in question. ‘…Is that, — …your car, ma’am?’ 

Now that, was what you would call a scene of accident. 

She had learned from her her work that people just loved to gather around dangerous incidents, but she hadn’t thought to find someone appear so quickly. Rosette hadn’t been able to get off the roof, let alone find a place to hide when a girl came out of no where at her.
 

“Ah…” She was trapped now, bound in the grip of this curious youth. How nice to know that her first concern was that of the nun. Now if she could only slide her away from the edge of the building then both could be on their way without a second thought.

To do that though she would need the ability to speak. Rosette never was good for thinking up amazing plans at the last minute, just going by her gut had always been her way. A gut that seemed to have fled, leaving her behind to fend for herself for once.

As curious eyes loomed over the edge she knew her time had come. Her own not being able to help themselves but gaze down as well at the destruction to the ground she had caused. Soon enough her car would explode, wouldn’t it? Wait that wasn’t what she should be thinking about right now!

Yet the whole situation was just too much for the young nun to handle, her hand frantically waving in front of her in denial. “I-It isn’t like I’m a villain returning to the scene of the crime or anything!” Not that she’d even left it to begin with.

Hakuno groaned as she was basically tackled down by a blonde nun? Wait, nun? The brunette narrowed her eyes slightly as she can tell that the girl seem rather…scared of something. Tilting her head, she wondered if there was a church near by. She didn’t seem to recall one near the school, probably somewhere in the city. Gently placing her hands over the nun’s, Hakuno hoped to calm her down. 

“Um…there isn’t one near the school but I’m sure we can find one if we go out into the city and look.” But Hakuno doesn’t want to walk that long and out to the city and helped her find a church. She looked around, it seems more like the blonde girl was lost. “Are you alright?” She asked bluntly. 

“I mean, I know this one priest that works here,” But you would probably hate seeing him. “But I don’t know if he would be any help.” He’s actually very helpful, that Kotomine bastard. “And I don’t want to see him.” The reasoning has come out. 

It was a lot harder to catch her breath than normal, just how long had she been sleeping up on that tilting death trap? And there still wasn’t any sign of her infamous partner in crime!

Her grip held no lax even when it seemed this stranger was trying to comfort her. Her mind was too busy flashing her life before her and all the horrors in store for the future to care about calming down. 

So there wasn’t a church anywhere in this area, no place for her to just hide out. How wonderful for her. This had to be some kind of test from the lord, she knew it. “Not even a small… chapel or anything.. ?” Okay so it didn’t need to be a giant church, hell, even a confession booth was good enough for her right now. Her head snapping up to stare into the face of her roadblock-made-savior.

“A… priest?” At the mention of a priest being in the area her demeanor seemed to take a one eighty. Rosette completing ignoring the contempt held by Hakuno and lifting herself up to lock arms with the girl, tugging her down the hall. “Perfectly fine, now lead the way!”

O Lord have mercy! ☇ guitar

Haruko wasn’t usually one to have “normal” days, being an alien and all, however, when a car tipped over the edge of a building and so ambitiously rushed back down to the ground to greet her, it wasn’t something she was expecting. Unsuspecting, but not unprepared. 

In one fluid motion, she slid the strap of the Rickenbacker off her shoulder and grasped it firmly in her hands. She took a batting stance as if the vehicle hurdling toward her was but a baseball flying across a field after a skillful windup. The ever glossy boot of her back foot twisted and dug into the ground eagerly. The metal hurdled closer and closer, yet she remained unfazed. The whole thing happened too fast for the average eye to catch the details, thankfully, Haruko had no average eye. Otherwise, this would be far less interesting.

“BIIIIIINGOOOOOO~!” Her shrill voice cried out in exhilaration.

It took only seconds for the plummeting vehicle to reach within only a few meters of the woman. And she swung. A swing that deserved its own place in history. Sayonara Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, and whoever else (baseball stars weren’t her forte). Impeccable timing, inhuman power, the car stood no chance. When metal met wood, the explosion of sound reverberated through every object in the vicinity, ringing each and every eardrum. The metal cage, still in contact with the body of the guitar, hesitated a moment, as if the car itself was in shock, before rocketing off back into the sky. Higher than the buildings, into the atmosphere, going, going…

Gone.

Like a reverse shooting star.

“Case closed.”

With no witnesses in site her escape from the scene of the crime was guaranteed. The door within her site as she spun on her heels to make a break for it. As if right on queue, like all the other plans she tried to formulate, something bad had to happen. “What…” It was impossible to miss that high pitched wail that had come from below, in the direction of the ground, where her car had fallen….

If retribution was going to be given to her for her actions she would prefer just having to pay for damaged goods and not a funeral. If there was going to be the possibility of a death she had to make sure that is wasn’t going to happen!

Though a bit reluctant she ran straight to the edge of the roof, a sound of collision giving her a start as she feared the worse while slowly peeking over the edge. Praise the lord she took the cautious approach too seeing that instead seeing something fall it was instead coming right back at her. The nun crying out in surprise as her head was almost taking off by the very car she’d gotten rid of.

“M-My car?” Up, Up, and away it flew into the sky. It was probably in better place now anyway, best not to think on it. “Hey you what’s the big deal?! Watch where you’re tossing things!” Disregarding the fact that it had almost been her body flying away with that car, and her being the cause of this all, she went on the offensive to the young Babe Ruth below.

Recovering from being dead was not fun, especially since she had to be with Kotomine the whole time. It was suppose to be relaxing, well it sure felt like hell to her. Putting her hands to her face, the unlucky brunette decided to hide away in the library. Towers of books were on the table, they were all random, but she needed a distraction. The nightmares of being attacked by a lion still haunts her as well as that weird boy. But she couldn’t stop thinking, the words in the book were not good enough to distract her. Standing up, Hakuno decided it was time to take a walk. 

Probably a bad decision but she had nothing else to do. If she sat down and think, she would probably end up crying or passing out from stress. Wasn’t there some sort of simple thaumaturgy ritual that can get rid of stress? She couldn’t remember and there was no Rin for her to consult with, so….

“Kotomine again…” She whined lightly to herself before running her hand through her bangs. Walking out of the library, the student turned left and began to walk, heading down the stairs and hoping to get to the Commissionary soon. A cold bottle of water would do great. 

“Please just let this day be peaceful.” 

With the speed she managed to escape the rooftop and leap down the stairwell the lord must be on her side. Not one bit of her body screaming out in pain yet. Maybe whenever the fear within her subsided it would be kind enough to remind her how it felt about this whole retreat. For now this was life or death. The minute that car planted itself into the ground below like a fresh monument was the minute her grave was made. She just had to escape as fast as possible but with little to no clue on where to go she was at a loss.

That was until another living creature was seen within her sight. A sign, here was the guiding light that would quell her fears!

And so she crashed right into the unsuspecting girl.

“Take… me…” A grotesque voice slipping past her lips as she tried to catch her breath. Her fingers coiling around the cloth of the girl’s uniform to stop any possible flight. “Take me… to the church….” It was the first location that game to mind. Surely she would find sanctuary there.

O Lord have mercy! ☇ incipere

Dreams were always meant to symbolize important things, but with what was going on in hers she really wasn’t sure. Normally there was food, relaxing, the possible nightmare— Not ones about a students. Seeing that she didn’t swing that way (may all who do have peace) the sudden desire to be around them was startling to say the least. As if her life would be over if she didn’t find a child in need. Here she thought that was how it would be if she didn’t keep her pocket watch sealed.

“… Hm?” The realization seeming to pull her from her slumber, and just in time. Obviously there was something wrong with her vehicle if one moment she was parked on the side of the road, the next balancing on the edge of a school? The steel contraption so easily teetering back and forth. Just one wrong move and she was sure to hit rock bottom in seconds.

Okay. So she wasn’t the best driver in the world. “I think I’d remember driving up a building?!” The nun yelled aloud while gripping the cushion of her seat in both anger and fear. While she was playing a balancing act she might as well look around the car, someone was missing. “Chrno… Just you wait I’ll— erp.” If she found out later that little demon pipsqueak had just left her like this she would give him something more than holy water to fear. But yes, life threatening situation to return to here.

She had to admit the majority of her concern didn’t come from her falling to her death but the phone call that would have to be made after. If there was something worse than fighting demons it was the head nun that she worked under. Sadly god’s gates would not be open to her upon return, no. The entrance to hell was slowly creeping upon her. Rosette would just have to embrace it with open arms and pray to be let free though. One last look being given to the vehicle before the door was unceremoniously kicked upon with a girl diving out.

Surprisingly the car seemed unaffected by the loss of weight. “Haha! See you later then Devil!” In a rash moment of joy she stood proudly, bellowing at the sky before slapping the side of the car in victory. An unwise move on her part. For it seemed that none of the higher beings above her appreciated the act. The win she so happily placed upon herself becoming a loss as the metal box on wheels blew a kiss farewell and dived off the edge. 

“Ah.” And like any good clergywoman she would now turn and run at high speed. To flee the scene of the crime was the best course of action. “A-An evil spirit shoved the car over… y-yeah.” That is what she would tell anyone that asked since she had something more important to do right now. One she needed to find her little demon partner, and two, figure out where she had ended up now. Maybe she should stop sleeping through Sister Kate’s briefings.

“Oh that’s a tricky one… I suppose going to the land in the east wouldn’t be so bad since I’ve already seen America.”
