Heavenly Hell

Chapter 9

Hey everyone! Sorry for delay. It's been hard to update. AP courses have been eating me alive. Please enjoy.
-----------------------------------------------------
The Oracle moved about her office, searching through piles of papers and books. The room was cluttered with things scattered over everything.

"Where the heck is that thing?" She grumbles to herself.

After searching for more than an hour, she lets out a frustrated growl.

"Damn it!"

She kicks the old bookshelf angrily. The shelf drops numerous book on her as it sways back and forth. The last one that lands on her has a black cover with scorch markings.

"Here you are. Finally!"

Plopping down in the mess around her, she rapidly starts flipping pages. Her eyes dart from left to right. With a grin, she pinpoints the page she was looking for:

Curse Removals.

Robin wished more than anything to see Angels and Devils live together in harmony. It was a dream that was far from coming true in her eyes. And yet.......

Seeing how well the Dragonslayers had treated the Angels made her believe maybe they could coexist not only peacefully, but happily again.

With a grin, she closes the book and placed it inside of her drawer. She takes her staff off the rack, and kicks her stuff out of the way as heads to the door. Mentally she notes to clean up a bit.
-----------------------------------------------------
Levy sat on her apartment floor, trying to read a book, but she closes it. She flops back onto the carpeting.

It was only a day after their venture into that ominous forest, but she felt compelled to go back. She glanced out her window, seeing it in the distance.

She hoped she'd see his spikey black hair. She'd see him giving her that stupid grin of his and whisk her off her feet.

But he didn't.

A knock interupts her thoughts. She pulls open the front door. To her surprise, the Oracle stood before her.

"Lady Oracle?"

"Come. We talk else where."

With that, she turned and left her and her open mouth at the door. After a few moments of hesitation, she quickly went after her. The Oracle led her to an empty open field.

"Um.....Lady Oracle? Why did-"

"Silence. Be patient."

Levy quickly shut her mouth and sat on the soft, green grass. But within moments, she was back on her feet in shock.

Another Oracle led Yukino and Mira to the field.

Followed by another Oracle leading Lucy and Kagura.

The last one led Kinana to them

Each girl seemed shocked to see the multiple Oracles.

The Oracle that led Levy tapped her staff against the ground. The remaining Oracles dissipated into the air.

"It's must faster to use magic to gather you all instead of just me."

"Such powerful magic." Yukino mumbles.

She grins at Yukino.

"Being the Oracle has its perks."

"So Lady Oracle, why did you call us here?" Mira asks.

"Well first things first. Don't call me Lady Oracle unless we're in public. It feels too stuffy."

"Well than what would you prefer Lady Oracle?" Lucy asks.
