Heh. I only work on weekdays.
@Khoi I guess you have....although I haven't decided on the extent of Aurora's powers yet....after all, she is basically a normal human. With a big gun. I might do something in the future, though...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Hi Aurora..”, Mimoto cracks a smile as she stares at Aurora. Aurora crosses her legs and yawns, not saying much. The sound of the blue jays chirping was heard, Mimoto looked around and smiles.
[Go. Say something. It'll be weird if you don't.]
Glaring slightly at her mother, Aurora finally grumbled
"Do you like nature, or something?" said Aurora dryly.
[...out of all the topics in the world, you talk about goddamm nature? You could have talked about your sniping skills, or the mission, or...]
“Heh, yeah, I do. I enjoy staring at the sky, I wish I could fly like the birds. I enjoy nature a lot." Mimoto slowly approaches the bench, and sits right on Aurora's left. Aurora slightly squirmed.
[Aurora, you're damn holding me naked right now. At least Mimoto is in some clothes. Seriously, I wore less clothes when...]
"Guess we wait for Tobias?" Aurora suddenly said to Mimoto.
“…Guess so," Mimoto replied.
“So many things goes on at once. I wonder.. why did Shinku put that seal on me..”, Mimoto looked at the palm of her right hand. “Think.. think.. why.. I can’t seem to remember much!”, Mimoto closed her eyes and sighed.
Aurora gazed at Mimoto. "She seems like she wants to be pitied."
Aurora's mother chuckled. [Then pity her, to gain at least some of her trust. It'll be useful later.]
Aurora then tapped Mimoto on the shoulder. “You alright? You look troubled.”
“Oh, haha! Ahaha! I’m fine! Nothing at all! Ahahah!”, Mimoto crossed her arms and attempts to laugh.
“… Alright. Whatever you say," Aurora said as she stroked her rifle. Meanwhile, Mimoto looks at the ceiling.
"Huh....a flashback...odd place to have a flashback. It's like a manga author trying desperately to put in some character development in a random place and time."
[Hah....]
A couple moments past. Mimoto still looked at the ceiling while Aurora gazed at the ground. Mimoto grunted several words.
[Bus is about to come soon.]
“Hey… hey.. Mimoto?" Aurorked Mimoto’s right arm. “… AH! What?" Mimoto woke up and yelled at Aurora.
“You were dreaming or something. Your eyes were wide open, but you were muttering some words about something.. I couldn’t tell exactly, but something about .. ‘kill you’?" Aurora raised her eyebrow.
“…. Forget about it. Hmm, I wonder when Tobias will show up?"said Mimoto as she attempted to steer the conversation to a different direction.
[Hah. Nice impression. Your eyebrow is twitching, though. It made your concern looks really fake.]
"Thanks a lot."[/I
Mimoto then started pacing around. Other people, mostly business men and women, glanced at their watches.
She gave them a cold glance, then looked over at Mimoto, still walking back and forth. "You know it's almost 6, right?" she asked in a sarcastic tone. Mimoto looked over at her and glared.
"I know! Tobias knows that we were supposed to meet here at 6, maybe he's just running late."
"That, or he isn't coming."
"Why wouldn't he come, he already agreed to?"
Aurora looked back at her and scoffed. "It's like I thought; you recruited a pathetic powerless kid for this mission, and it just so happens that this loser is also a lying ass. Trust me, next time I see him, his ass is mine. I don't appreciate being lied to..." She looked over at the bench and smiled darkly.
[More like your usual self. I was getting afraid when you started twitching your eyebrow.]
Mimoto looked at her and pouted, then lowered her head and sighed. She walked over to the bench and picked up her bags and walked onto the bus. She gave the driver her tickets and walked down the tiny walkway. Aside from Aurora and two other people, the bus was empty. She took a seat by the window, and stared out of it, looking back onto the bench. Before she boarded the bus, she left Tobias' ticket on the bench, held down by a rock. Slowly the bus rose up and started to drive off.
Aurora examined the bus. She was sitting in the middle seat, and before the bus started, she neatly buckled her seat belt. Mimoto was sitting across from her, and the two other people were by the front.
[What? Kids still buckle their seat belts?]
[I]"I don't care about fads like you, mother. Seat belts increase a persons' chance of survival up to 60%." The Rifle chuckled.
The bus ride was pretty uneventful. The two other people dozed off, but Aurora looked alertly around the bus, wary of any signs of danger. Mimoto made some feeble attempts at conversation, but Aurora shrugged her off. She suddenly spoke to the Rifle.
"How long is it until you reach level 3?"
[You mean form 3?]
"It doesn't make any damn difference."
[By your current rate of training....a month, I guess.]
Aurora suddenly chuckled. "Ah, so that's what you meant when you said you'll leave this world in a month yesterday. Such a coincidence."
[Yeah...I probably won't be able to muster that much energy to hang on to this weapon...I don't think I'll be even able to speak in a couple of weeks.]
"What hotel would we be staying at again, Mimoto?" Aurora suddenly inquired.
"Oh...erm...Hotel Kyuki," she replied. At this, Aurora suddenly smiled widely. It was a rather unsettling sort of smile, but a smile nevertheless.
"Thanks..." Aurora's mother shifted uneasily between Aurora's fingers as she tightened her grip.
"Hotel Kyuki, please get off if you want to stay at Hotel Kyuki," the bus driver hollered. Mimoto gathered her bags and money while Aurora just slung the Rifle onto her back.
[Great God of Wind, that hotel is even dirtier than my old whore house!]
"Erm...I'll be in the beach, then," said Mimoto. She tossed the bags over to Aurora. Aurora gave Mimoto a cold glare, and then walked inside the hotel.
A lone light shone above the receptionist's desk. The receptionist was a rather big man and smelled strongly of alcohol. Aurora just flashed the hotel room card, and the man nodded and pointed to the stairs.
"66...67...68..."
[That's hilarious, you're in room 69.]
Aurora shot a look at her mother, who then fell silent. She jammed the key into the hole, and then stepped into the room.
The room was rather sort of dingy. There were two beds on the right, one of them being a bunk bed. To the left was a bathroom that looked like it wasn't cleaned in years.
[Wow, it looks even worse than that public bathroom you went to last night.] Aurora, tossing Mimoto's bag aside, stepped in the bathroom.
[You gotta take a shit after that long bus ride? That sucks, especially in this toilet...] However, Aurora just turned on the sink by pushing the knob down. There was no hot or cold option, but a rather ornate letter "W" on the knob.
[What does that mean? Wank?]
Aurora examined the W. She attempted pushing the W, turning it around, but nothing happened.
[What are you trying to do?]
With a sudden realization, Aurora then jammed her mother onto the knob.
[Wait...wait...what the hell is happening?] Aurora's mother suddenly started shrinking in size.
"The W stands for 'Weapon,'" Aurora coolly replied.
[What...what....what is happening to me!?!?!?]
"Oh, I'm forcibly transforming you into Level 3," Aurora said rather cheerfully.
[Wait...WHY!??!?!]
"Oh, the only consequence is losing you forever, mother, since it kills the soul of the weapon. Many people don't choose to do this, since they like, have a loved one in their weapon. You, on the other hand..."
[WHAT WHAT....FUCK YOU, I WISH I NEVER GAVE BIRTH TO YOU!] However, at the sound of the F-Bomb, Aurora's mother suddenly started transforming more quickly.
"Oh, good, I managed to make you say the magic words."
[YOU GODDAMM BITCH WHAT HAVE I EVER FUCKING DONE TO YOU?!?]
"Now that I think about it, not really anything."
[THEN WHAT HAVE I DONE TO FUCKING GET THIS TREATMENT!!??!]
"By doing nothing, mother. I think I saw you more in Playboy magazines than in real life, actually."
Aurora's mother's voice suddenly shrilled to a high pitch squeal.
[PLEASE....JUST AT LEAST LET ME LIVE FOR ONE MORE MONTH! JUST ONE MORE GODDAMM MONTH TO SEE YOUR FATHER DEAD!!]
"You're see him one month in hell, mother. Heck, you'll see both of us there."
[Please...PLEASE!!!]
"Your willpower is rather strong. I was astounded you managed to live this long in this weapon when you've never displayed any demon magic powers. Well, goodbye, Agatha."
[FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU]
Aurora then peered at the sink. Inside was a weapon colored night black. Pulling it out, Aurora commented
"Seems like sneaking in Father's forbidden library was worth it after all..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looks like I did extend Aurora's powers. I wonder what is the weapon...by the way, I hope the weapon leveling system doesn't screw your guy's plans up.
@Khoi I guess you have....although I haven't decided on the extent of Aurora's powers yet....after all, she is basically a normal human. With a big gun. I might do something in the future, though...
