Rain the rain spirit

Rain the rain spirit

It wasn't exactly a storm, but she wouldn't have called it a calm rain, either. 

What a day for walking home! Note fumed to herself while shivering. But then she smiled thinking of how that meant she could make some warm drink like coffee or hot chocolate when she got home- maybe even herbal tea!~

It was about at that moment that a certain rain spirit happened upon her...

"Yo," He said coolly, suddenly at her side. Today he appeared to her as a teen about the same age as her (The spirits could appear to be lots of different ages).

"Ah, Rain!" Note exclaimed joyfully, "How are you?"

He seemed to be in one of his rare good moods because he answered, "Not bad... The weather is pretty nice today,"

"Well, I don't think it's very nice..." She told him with a shudder, "It hurts,"

"Oh yeah... I guess you wouldn't like it... Well, then-," With that he put his arm around her and suddenly the rain was no longer falling on her. 

At first she stiffened defensively, unused to the touch. Then she relaxed and looked at him curiously. It was unusual for him to touch anyone, that was part of the reason she liked him so much, yet here he was... Hugging her. But she realized she didn't mind it so much after all. Maybe it was that wonderful scent on him that she had never noticed before. What was it, exactly? She found herself pressing her nose into his jacket. "Mmmm!~"

The spirit blushed and said in his quiet voice, "...What are you doing?"

"Rain..." 

"...Yes?"

"You smell really good..." Note buried her face in his jacket again and sighed.

He blushed even darker at the sudden display of affection and yelled nervously, "Hey- cut it out! Or you can walk home on your own!"

"Okay, okay!" She giggled.

Kuroshitsuji - Adventures of Mary Sue~

It was the end of the day. Even though the work day had been short, I already felt like I'd been beat up (working with children could do that to ya). I was walking home from my job when I realized how dark it was. Damn! Why did it have to get dark so early? Not that I didn't like the dark, actually it was my favorite time of day. It's just that I was all alone, walking along a dirt road so I was kind of freaked at the idea that I would soon be walking in pitch black.

I looked at the thick woods on either side of me. The only sight that greeted me was of tree trunks, palmetto plants, and other forest plant life; all colorless in the dark. In the cold of dusk, no insect sounds came from the trees as usual. Instead there was only silence and the occasional sound of a bat calling out. What animals could be lurking in there? Panthers? Coyotes? Or perhaps a car would fly down here so quickly that they wouldn't see me in time to stop;  I was wearing black, after all... I dismissed that thought, though- this road was hardly used by cars at all. In fact, I had been using this road once a week for 2 months now and I hadn't seen any cars at all.

Just as that ran through my head, I began to hear something. It sounded like an engine, but when I stopped to listen it faded away, so I assumed it to be distant traffic. Suddenly a roar filled my ears. I gave out a frightened cry and turned to stare like a startled deer, blinded by the bright headlights.

My mind went blank.
I stumbled backwards.
It almost seemed like a dream. The car came closer and closer until I could read its front license plate.

I opened my eyes. I was laying on my back in a small, dark space. I forced myself to remain calm and lay still. After a minute I realized I could hear voices outside whatever box I was in. I yelled and pushed and shoved at the wooden surface above me. The voices outside grew more distressed all of a sudden. Finally a great weight seemed to be lifted and the lid moved.

"Oh my goodness!" A woman yelled in a thick English accent. She ran outside shrieking.

I turned my head stiffly to look around, and realized there was a man guffawing across the room. I pulled myself out of what I now realized was a coffin and stumbled towards him, disoriented and stiff. I caught myself against the desk he was sitting behind.

"Where am I?"

After he had finally recovered from the laugh he looked up at me and smiled, "My~ It's not often my guests wake back up~"

Soul Eater - MakaxAshura Christmas snippet

AN: working on a story for a christmas contest on DeviantArt


---------------------


"...Maka?"


Maka paused what she was doing to look at him, "Yes?" She panted.


"Why are you attacking that tree with an axe?"


"We're taking it home to decorate it," She explained and began chopping at it again.


"Oh," He watched her for a few more minutes. Then sighed and took the axe from her.


"What are you gonna do with that?" The suspicion in her voice annoyed him.


"If you keep up this pace we'll be here all night," He told her, and then he swung the axe once. The tree was immediately severed from the rest of its trunk. He threw the huge tree over his shoulder, "Come on. Let's go home now,"


She looked at him curiously for a few seconds before following.

Kuroshitsuji - Paula's Bells and a Run-in with Undertaker

It was a boring day. Lizzy had had just about all that she could take. She had tried teasing and scaring Paula, but Paula had caught onto her game and now wouldn't believe anything she said.

"Really, my lady- even I wouldn't believe something like that!" Paula huffed. But her foul mood didn't last long; soon she turned to Elizabeth, "My lady, Look at this!" She ran to the window and pressed against it to better see inside.

Lizzy did the same, "What is it, Paula?"

"Those bells- they're adorable~ <3," Paula swooned.

"Bells, again?" Lizzy looked at her servant curiously, "Paula, why do you like bells so much?"

Paula paused to think, then replied, "Well, I suppose it's because they're so cheerful," She smiled, "Even when things go wrong, bells will always ring cheerfully,"

"Ah... I see," Lizzy smiled, too.

------------

"My Lady, we should probably head back now..." Paula said.

"Just a moment. There's a flower shop down here that I've always wanted to go in," Elizabeth told her, smiling deviously.

Paula looked at her suspiciously, wondering what she was up to. But when she saw the flower shop her mood brightened again. Maybe lady Elizabeth wasn't up to anything!

"Ah- My Lady! I see it- it's right over there!" She turned, but Lizzy wasn't heading for the Flower Shop. Paula turned in time to see Elizabeth disappearing through a different door. She hurried after her, opening the door and entering into a very dimly lit room.

"My La-," She stopped in mid-sentence, taking in the room she was now standing in.

"My Lady... Why are we in this kind of place?" Paula whispered and walked up to Lady Elizabeth, eying the coffins all around them uncomfortably.

"Because, Paula, there's someone I want you to meet....," She looked around, "I wonder where he is..."

"Uh-uhm.... Maybe we should come back later..." Paula suggested, backing towards what she assumed to be an empty coffin leaning against the wall.

Imagine her surprise when someone grabbed her shoulder and a creepy voice behind her said, "Hello~" .

Next thing Paula knew, she was staring up at the ceiling while two people leaned over her. One was Lady Elizabeth.

"I didn't expect her to faint! Um... Perhaps we overdid it, Mr. Undertaker...." Lizzy said, sheepishly.

"Oh, well... I'm sure she'll be alright," The other, unfamiliar person grinned, "If not, then it's convenient that you came here, isn't it? Hehehe~,"

"That's awful!" Lady Elizabeth scolded. Undertaker only grinned wider.

Paula closed her eyes again and sighed. Since she had met this strange person, things would be much more..... interesting from now on.

"Miss Elizabeth, she's not moving. Shall I start taking measurements now?~"

"Waaaah! Don't touch me!"
