Alpha and Mist stood before the door to the medical room. Alpha turned to Mist and said softly "I assume you got this from here, I'll head back to the front door to grab my stuff"
Mist nodded and thanked him, grateful for his kind gesture. With a gentle push, Mist creaked the door open just enough to peek inside the medical room. She saw the nurse was still there. "No problem," Alpha replied walking the back they way they came.
opening the door more she saw a room with chairs and a bed with black sheets. The nurse sat at the table, looking at her phone. Upon looking up and noticing the dried blood on Mist's forehead, she walked over."Oh dear, what happened?" Mist replied, "Just got hit by a door." The nurse then walked over to the sink and wet a cloth, before walking back to Mist and cleaning the wound. "It's okay," Mist said, "at least you didn't wipe it with an alcohol swab."Mist giggled a bit looking away for a sec "I'm gonna have to " the nurse said while smirking at her.
Mist turned back staring at the nurse in the eyes looking for a sign that she was joking, thankfully the nurse started laughing her ass off which indicates it was a joke. "I believed you there for a second" mist laughing awkwardly. "I just need to put a bandaid on it and you should be good to go, it looked worse than it was so thankfully no alcohol swab" smiling at Mist. The nurse reached into her pocket grabbing out a bandaid that had the design of many musical instruments on it. Opening it up and placing it on mists forehead they smiled at Mist " You're good to go sweetie and here I'll give you an extra in case that one falls off" handing her another bandaid". "Thank you, I'll be leaving now!" Mist says while smiling and standing up while the nurse responds to the thank you by smiling
making her way to the door she closed it gently and began walking towards her room while stifling multiple yawns. The time was around midnight, making her even more tired than usual. When she entered her room, she noticed Omega had already put her luggage outside the door. "Oh right, I forgot to give Omega the key to my room," she thought to herself. Pushing everything in, she decided to leave it for tomorrow. She climbed into bed shortly after, falling asleep after one minute or so.
Mist woke up feeling refreshed and energized. She immediately started practicing on her guitar for an hour, but after some time, she felt very hungry. She decided to go to the common room for breakfast.
As she walked into the dining room suddenly papa said "Mist I need you to come with me to my office" he starts sitting up from his chair and walking past Mist. "what was that all about? she asked but nobody responded, they just stared at her. exiting the room she walked up out of the basement to Papa's office. walking up to his office's door she knocked on it, papa saying to come in on the other side. opening the door she was greeted by Papa and a mysterious ghoul who had the water symbol on their chest.
mist wondering what was happening asks "What am I doing here and what's going on!?" papa sighed then answered "I've decided to replace you mist" "What?" mist suddenly felt a rush of anger and sadness wash over them "for what reason? what did I do wrong?"
papa stared at her with stone-cold eyes while her own eyes started watering "Go pack your items, the bass guitar stays here" Without saying anything back, mist left the room in complete tears.
when walking past Alpha in the hallway, his gaze quickly darted away, realizing why everyone had been avoiding eye contact with her. Returning to her room, she slammed the door shut, sliding down to the floor with her back against the wall. mist slumped down and started to quietly sob putting her knees to her chest, trying to stifle her emotions in the quiet of her own company, but failing miserably.
after an hour or so of packing and crying, she was ready to leave, walking to the room she was first summoned in. The small, candles that adorn the summoning room flickered softly. The floor appears covered in ash and dust. Papa stood nearby, deep in conversation with that same mysterious ghoul. The ghoul suddenly glances over to her, causing Papa's attention to turn towards Mist. Papa then leans in to whisper something to the ghoul. the mysterious ghoul then leaves the room and closes the door.
with just Papa and Mist in the room, mist starts moving her bags over to the circle, papa grabbing an old book from a table that was to the side. after an hour of laying out ashes and smearing a red liquid on the floor, it was ready The ghoul followed her Papa's every command without hesitation walking to the middle of the circle,
out of a sense of unconditional loyalty.
When the moment came for her to return to hell, she let out a wail of pain and sorrow, crying out to Papa, asking, "Why must I go, Papa?" Papa looked down with sorrow in his eyes and said, "My ghoul, it is your fate to be summoned. It is your purpose to serve, and now it is your time to return." The ghoul's wails turned to whispers of quiet, heartbroken sobs as she sank into the abyss leaving Papa alone to grieve her absence.
