"I'm going to get my things. Make yourselves at home." I smile, bolting inside. I race upstairs so that those tending the church cannot see and judge my attire. I immediately draw the curtains so that Shima, I'm sure he's bound to be daring enough to try and look up into my room as I change and take off the disgusting attire.
Once I'm in my comfy shorts and vests I put on sneakers and head for my stash. Who would suspect the inside of a chair? I move the seat and grab my small personalised blade and my good guns.
Upon getting equpied I head outside to observe the Japanese exorcists.
"Does anybody want a drink?" I offer.
"No thank you Thea." Yukio nods.
"Gin and tonic Nixy." Shura teases. "I've got my own, no worries."
"Nah." Bon shakes his head.
"Nope." Rin smiles widely, showing off his teeth. How can one be so comfortable?
"I'm okay." Konekomaru assures.
"None for me, I'm good." Shima shrugs.
"Maybe later." the blonde girl smiles sweetly.
"No thanks." the girl I'm officially mentally calling 'dot brow' shakes her head also.
"Who's going to brag first?" I ask.
"Shima, you were all talk; you do it." Bon shoves the pink haired boy.
"Uhh." he rubs the back of his head.
"I actually haven't learnt much about my staff." he ducks his head.
"Oi! Nixy, did you ever learn the body portal trick?" Shura asks. I shake my head.
"You simply say open with your hand over the portal and you can store something inside of you that will not damage you internally." she demonstrates. "Open." as she says so a bottle of Jack Daniels emerges from where her hand is hoverring, over her exposed stomach. "Also, open." she takes her sword from her other bodily portal.
"That is awesome!" I enthuse.
"Look! A baseball cannon!" Rin grins.
"Yeah, we have that to train, all the broken balls from around are collected and repurposed for target practise." I state.
"It's like at True Cross Academy!" Shima grins.
"Have you tried to do it? Knock 'em?" I am asked by the pink haired boy. I nod.
"Let's go then. Let's see who can do it better!" he tries.
"Shima..." the bespecticaled boy cautions.
"You'll lose." Bon shakes his head.
"I'm good with that Shima." I shrug, producing my guns, the cheaper low quality exorcist guns.
"Wow, are you trained in all areas?" 'Dot brow' asks.
"According to what I heard, Thea Ember is best with a sword." Konekomaru states.
"I prefer to use guns in this situations. I find that it's easier." I shrug.
"Ready?" Shura goes toward the cannon.
Shima twirls his staff around, occasionally hitting himself in the face with it, knocking baseballs away however he's missed a few. I shoot the balls, hitting the target nine times out of the ten balls that come at me.
"'Nix got it." Rin grins.
"Nice." I shake Shima's outstreatched hand.
"Me now!" Rin enthuses, eyes shining.
"Don't tell me you're going to use your sword for this?" 'Dot brow' sighs.
"I need to practise with guns Dot brows." Rin looks away.
"But you're a good shot." I cock a brow.
"Seriously Nxt, I think you might need glasses!" Shura snorts.
"You hit that demon though earlier!" I protest.
"That was Yukio." he ducks his head.
"You weren't even in the alley!" I gasp. "Wow Yukio, that's incredible! Rin, I'm sorry for getting mad. Yukio you did me a favour earlier so we're good. Rin, you ready?"
"Totally." he grins, tail swishing around.
The first baseball is fired, heading toward me, Rin hits it.
Another is released, going straight at Rin, his bullet misses and hits a tree. I take the ball down in his stead.
Rin's shot isn't the best but if the sword he is used to welding is the blade that I think it is then he can't use it oftenly.
I take down the last ball since Rin missed.
I high five the older son of Satan.
"No wonder your reputation's so good; you've earned your status." he smiles widely. I giggle, hand over my mouth once I realise what I did.
"Anybody else want to do this?" I offer.
"DO THIS!" Shima's eyes light up.
"Shima!" Yukio chides.
"I meant does anybody want to have at the ball cannon. Okay I suck at this." I huff.
"Yuki-chan, you should have a go." the blonde beams.
"Go on Yukio!" Rin nudges his brother.
"Want to go Yukio?" I offer.
"He's a sore loser!" Shura teases.
"That's alright." he pushes up his glasses. "I don't intend to lose."
"Bring it!" I grin.
He looks nervous now however doesn't back down. The two of us take stance as Shura refills the cannon with baseballs.
We each have a few tricks up our sleeves, shooting all ten baseballs each, that is until Shura lans on the release and another one comes flying at me, hitting me in the head.
"Nix, you are awesome!" Bon smiles.
"No doubt about it." the blonde girl beams at me. I tilt my head in confusion at why she keeps on glancing at me and then at the Okumura brothers. Does she think something has gone on?
"'Nix, we should hang out again." Rin grins as they go back to Japan.
"I'm going to stay home for a while, thanks for today."I wave, being passed the key by Shura as well as another.
"See ya Nixy." Shura grins, ruffling my hair. I huff, smothing out my bangs and she laughs.
"Bye Shura. See you soon." I smile.
"That's the key back to Japan." she states, it'll open at wherever in Japan you want; I would reccomend making it your place.
"Where else would I want to open it?" I cock a brow.
"Oh Nixy, poor sweet, innocent Nixy." she leaves with that.
...What?
