001 - A Bad Day For Everyone

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Misaki Kirihara appears on the plane looking very, very pissed. Her Sig P230 is unholstered and leveled at…

…no one.]

Tch.

[She lowers the weapon, very slightly, taking in her surroundings. Or rather, the lack thereof.]

Contractor!

[She turns in a slow circle, tension wrapped around her like a creaking spring.]

Contractor! Show yourself. You’re being stupid. Using your power on a member of the NPA will get you killed. It isn’t worth the laugh.

[A pause. She’s starting to get angry again.]

Show yourself!

[She looks up, down, around at the stars, and a pained expression crosses her face. Barely audible, she mutters,]

You people… know how to be cruel.

Oh, Amshel mentioned that a lot. Not anymore or recently, but he mentioned that when he came to that tower to see me. I think it's some religious thing, but I really don't know~

So, where you're from, there are multiple Hell's Gates, but the Heaven's Gate has still disappeared? What do you know about the Gates?

[madamemoiselle]

{Considers it for a moment before she laughs slightly} So serious? Ne, I think we're talking about different things~

[Misaki closes her eyes and sighs a little bit before holstering her gun. She's still on guard, but unless this girl makes some sort of hostile advance, the gun is only hurting the conversation.]

I will admit, that's a relief. The thought of multiple Hell's Gates--the Hell's Gates of my... [Get used to saying it, Kirihara, she thinks. Probably going to be here a while.] My reality, is really rather terrifying.

[madamemoiselle]

...It can't be that scary. There are scarier things, I'm sure~

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Maybe. What are your gates like?

[madamemoiselle]

Why, that would be things like bridges and art sculptures~

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Snerks despite herself.]

Your... hell's gates, I meant.

[madamemoiselle]

That's what I meant too~ See, two different things. Because bridges aren't that scary, or art. Well, unless you're very...religious, I think the word is.

On my world Hell's Gate is scary, whether your religious or not. It can drive you mad if you get too close.
