Shikon Tail

Chapter 26 -- And So She Woke

A/N:: OKAY!! So I'm putting in a bit of a time skip so I can make it winter. (Also, didn't have another idea for a filler chapter).

SO! I'll just explain what 'we' missed if I actually bothered to write out the other filler chapters.

1) Guild got rebuilt; It looks traditional on the outside, but classier on the inside.(Colin-Traditional; Trevor-Classy)

2) Natiel still hasn't waken up. Glitch fears the worst has happened.

3)Dorms got fixed. Slightly bigger and now has a larger bathhouse (for both genders)and has a kitchenette.

So, that is what would have happened if I bothered to write out a chapter (or two).

Sorry for being lazy!

{Skye's POV}

I sighed and took a sip of the hot chocolate that Chris had brought me. Another snowstorm had brought another ton of snow. I shivered; I don't like the cold. However, I noticed the guild was decorating for something.

I set down the hot chocolate and I got up from my desk, went to my closet, grabbed my coat and scarf and went over to my mirror. I was wearing my usual knee-high boots with navy blue skinny jeans, a white shirt that had big, black letters that said, 'Blame It On My Badass Attitude', a black beanie with (fake) gold squares studding the flipped up part of the brim, and now, a black coat that had a soft plaid design inside the hood and fake fur lining the hood and, finally, a black scarf.

I walked out of my dorm room. No way was I flying the five blocks to the guild and making my room freezing by forgetting to shut the window because I wanted to get to the guild as quick as possible. I was going to fly as soon as I stepped outside.

I walked down the staircase and noticed people were rushing in and out with decorations. About five or six people were decorating in the dorms and about twelve people were running in and out with boxes overflowing with decorations. While I was staring at the others (and trying to get out of the door), I ran into Chris! 

"Oof!" He grunted as he fell to the floor, the box of decorations soaring up and going everywhere.

"Oh shit!" I said as I quickly helped him up, "I am so sorry Chris!" I apologized.

"No worries..." He said, starting to pick stuff up. I felt bad so I bent down myself and started picking up the scattered decorations.

We quickly cleaned up the decorations and put them all in the box.

"Are you going to the guild?" He asked, picking up the box.

"Yeah..." I replied, "I'll at least find something to do at the guild instead of being bored in my room."

"Actually..." He said, holding the door open, "The guild's pretty hectic right now. With getting ready for the party and all that."

"Party?" I asked, walking out into the cold winter air, Chris following me.

"Yeah." He said, "We... well the guild usually has a giant party during the daytime and then all of Shirotsume goes to the town square at night for a Winter Ball."
