Estelle headed to Height's Alliance with her classmates without a care in the world. Despite having so much to think about, she appreciated the time to allow her mind to blank, focusing on her steps the whole way back.
Iida was holding the door open for everyone, his hands chopping away as he yelled at the top of his lungs. No doubt he ordered them to rest after the long morning they had training with Class 1B. But, instead of focusing on his words, Estelle could only hear the sound of faint buzzing in her ear. Pausing from the noise, she furrowed her brows are recognition crawled up her neck.
"Estelle?" Iida questioned, motioning her to come in since she was the only one left outside. The class took note of the gentleness in his tone and groaned internally at how they had never been given that treatment as often as Estelle had. However, they could understand why since it was hard to tell sometimes if Estelle was mentally present. Yelling in her ear would not gain any favours; plus, it was downright mean to do so.
Crowding round the door with avid concern, the students kept their eyes on Estelle as she focused on the bushes near the front entrance. She was still ignoring them, but they were relieved when her eyes narrowed, noting how the blankness wasn't there.
"It's cold. You shoul-"
Estelle cut Sero off with a snarl as she turned around, immediately making a beeline for the coppices. Her feet stomped on the withered grass so loudly that it made everyone watching a little nervous about what they were about to witness. Observing how Estelle stuck her arms into the greenery, disregarding the twigs that had dug into her arm, they could only simmer in bewilderment once she began to pull.
Her entire body weight was leaning back, Estelle's heels digging against the mud with such determination that they nearly missed the sound of a meek whimper. Whatever was hiding in the bushes was doing its best to fight her off, the sounds of frantic shuffling reaching their ears with the light wind.
"You pesky little thing, come out!" Estelle barked, her teeth glinting in the light as she bared them. The dispute lingered for another minute, the sounds of a female's shrieking filling the atmosphere before the intruder finally started to reveal themselves.
Not by choice, though, because the more Estelle managed to pull her into view, the more ferociously the tiny body fought back. Her wings were the first thing that caught the students' eyes, shining brightly as if they were a sheet of ice shimmering in the sun. After one last forceful tug, the tiny silhouette finally fell to the ground in defeat, and they realised just how small she was.
It was a spirit who was the size of a toddler. The wings were nearly double her size, and they wondered how she had managed to fight well when no muscles could be seen on her body.
"Ouch! What was that for?!" The spirit eventually whined, shuffling her knees to look up at her comrade.
Estelle felt the dark shadow rise above her head as she tried to reign her emotions in. Staring down at her, she barked, "The hell are you doing here? And why are you sneaking around?!"
The innocent face pouted, her arms folding as she turned her head away like her favourite toy had been stolen. "I heard what happened to Wolf. I wanted to see the humans you care so much about."
Tipping her brows, Estelle shuffled on her feet as she tried to gauge the answer. "Why didn't you just ask me instead of crouching behind some leaves like an idiot?!"
The winged spirit shot up to her feet from the question. Her finger raised to a point as she whined, "Because you never talk about anything! The only option was to come and see by myself!"
Estelle held thunderclouds in her eyes as she glared, her subconscious rising in agreement with her words. Hissing through her teeth in vexation that the spirit was right, Estelle wasted no time grabbing a wing in her hand and heading towards the entrance. She ignored her complaints as she trudged to the doors, raising her high like a piece of meat as she stalked inside.
