Mokou recieved the message and frowned. Ey Ranna, where'd ya see that woman?
Ranna startled by the sudden voice, was brought out of her daze. That woman? Images of the previous scenes flashed in her mind, making her uncomfortable. She inhaled deeply to stop her body from shaking.
I saw her on the roof of the dorms. There was another girl too, a civillian girl... She paused for a moment, thinking about what could have happened to the girl. When I looked back to the roof...they were both gone...
Mokou was speechless. No way... Her body began to shake slightly. ...No way... She clentched her teeth. We couldn't have lost already...
Ranna is silent, not wanting to believe it either, but they couldn't trust anyone besides themselves. Chaos wasn;t a kind creature, it wouldn't spare anyone. If it were left alone. Everything would be obliterated. With no exceptions, what so ever.
Mokou's expression became sharp. Shit...
[Kanako, we might have a problem. Ranna lost sight of them, they both vanished. The woman was with a student on the roof of the dormitory. The student was female, an innocent civillian...What's your location right now?]
Ranna took a deep breath, shaking off the bad feeling that was nagging her mind. She continued on, turning the corner and heading down another hallway. As she walked along the hall, gazing into the rooms, she caught a quick glimpse of a girl, dressed in all purple, wearing a white mobcap. Her blonde hair was slightly wavy and looked soft. Something about her looked familiar, but Ranna couldn't figure out what it was. Unable to remember the nostalgia the girl caused in her, Ranna shrugged it off and continued on down the hall.
As she reached another turn, Mokou's voice resounded in her head.
Ey...
Ranna stopped, turning to look back down the hall, making sure she wasn't being followed. She leaned against the wall, just around the corner from the next staircase. Her eyes became serious. What?
Mokou hesitated then continued. ...Aesera says she understands how hard this all is...And that's she'll be there for you if you need it.
Ranna was completely caught off guard by the sudden message, so much so that she was left speechless. Her gaze lowered to the floor. Her face was red as could be.
...Ranna? the immortal's voice echoed in her mind. Ranna's expression turned to something of a pout, her face still red. Finally, she stuttered out an answer.
W-why is she worrying about me? Isn't there others that need encouragement more than me? Like that little girl.
Mokou is slightly surprised, but then laughs under her breathe. Yeh yeh, miss tough girl~ Mokou says mockingly.
Ranna makes a few unsatisfied sounds. Her embarassment not seeming to lower in the slightest. She can imagine Mokou grinned widely at her, making her even more embarassed.
Riiiinnng!
Ranna's brought back to reality by the loud sound of the bell ringing. It resounded all across the campus. Even if you weren't on the university grounds, you could still hear it a fair distance away. Mokou, Aesera, Kanako, Newan, Nazrin, Nanaya...even the ones that were still back at the mcdonals could hear its chime.
Ranna snapped out of her little battle against embarassment and realized something.
...Shit that's the lunch bell!
Silence wasn't even given a milisecond to return. As soon as the bell had stopped ringing, the classroom doors opened with a loud chorus of muffled voices.
People came out from everywhere. The sudden burst of sound and commotion hurt Ranna's ears that had been used to eerie silence.
Ranna covered her ears. I need to get out of here...! She thought. Instinctively, she retreated around the corner and headed up the stairs.
Unfortunately, her escape was a total failure. As she came around the corner and darted up the stairs, she ran into someone. Their bodies collided with eachother. Ranna's foot shifted and her body was dragged to the ground by the force called gravity. Her body hit the ground hard with a thud. Typical First Meeting
"Hey! You okay?"
A voice says above all the noise and commotion.
Ranna looks up at the source of the voice. Before her stands a girl, dressed in black and white. She has short brownish-red hair and brown eyes, and atop her head is a black hat.
"Mm..." Ranna mutters to herself, nearly forgetting the role she's supposed to be playing. Her expression changes drastically, but the girl doesn't seem to notice.
"Ah, I'm sorry about that, I'm new here and not used to things" She says innocently, laughing it off weakly.
After Mokou finishes her mental conversation with Ranna, she turns her attention back to Kanako. [Kanako, tell Aesera Ranna says thanks, that's she's fine. She says you should focus your efforts on Alyssa before you think about her.] Mokou's smile changes to a grin. [Don'tcha worry! I got 'er covered!] Mokou finishes with confidence.
At that moment the bell rings.
Mokou frowns slightly. "What the hell..." She mutters, looking towards the roof's entrance. She shrugs it off and turns her back to the door.
Just then, the sounds of the door being unlocked and opened can be heared from it. Mokou spins around quick, eyes slightly wide. "Shit...!" She whispers under her breath. She quickly looks around for a hiding spot. "Tch..." She leaps into the air, her wings instantly sprouting from her back, and with one great flap, she flies out of sight.
"Ah finally! Seems that lock is getting stickier everyday" Some random girl walks out into the open sun and sighs. Behind her follows a boy and another girl. Typical Lunchtime on the Roof
Mokou watches from her hiding spot on the small part of the building that houses the entrance to the roof. She's lying down, trying to be as flat against the ground as possible. She peaks over the small ledge and watches the people silently.
Eeh...now what do I do... Mokou wonders, analyzing the situation she's in.
