Days have passed since Shido was "murdered" and Raymond received a graze that pierced his flesh. Reports around Ratatotskr say there is another spirit around. This time changing the weather around. First it was sunny and then a long rainy day happens.











Raymond's POV








After our dates the other day, Kotori and Rae said they have found a new spirit within the vicinity. Hopefully this spirit is the reason for the constant rains in the forecast. I hate having to come home with wet clothes and have Rae scold me like a certain little "sister" I watched in my favorite anime. "Hey Raymond." I turn and I see Shido with an umbrella in his hand. "Sup, Shido. Why holding an umbrella? It's clear as paper right now." I ask him. "Kotori said about this new spirit that can trigger unexpected rain, even the weather say it will be sunny all day. I take it you didn't listen to her or Rae's concern." He said with a smirk. "If it's clear as water, then why don't I feel a drop on my clothes?" And because of that, I met a familiar face. Its name was karma. I then see a lot of rain coming down. "Come under here, Raymond." I see Shido open his umbrella and go under it. "No homo, man."









Time skip to finding a girl in the rain brought to you by Aya asking Kotori what doujinishi means








Shido's POV











I was running through the rain with Raymond. Saw a glimpse of a short person running. "Did you see something, Shido?" Raymond asked me. "I thought I did. Let's go after it." Shido said. We run to a nearby playground. We then see it. The glimpse was actually a small girl. Wearing like a dinosaur onesie. She had on red sneakers, and I believe a puppet in one hand.

(This should save time in this chapter. Imagine Raymond taking part in this)








The next day






Raymond's POV





After yesterday involving the little girl, I made my way to school and I head into homeroom and I see Shido,Tonomachi, and the gossip trio who was minding their own business. I did see Tohka, Aya, and Origami go into another room. Maybe another class. I go to the men just gossiping about Tonomachi's girl. For the love of God, man, it's a damn dating simulator. I then see the girls come to us and slam cookies in our desks. Tohka and Origami slammed it in front of me and Aya did so to Shido. 

(Imagine Raymond on the receiving end and Aya on the giving edge to the boys)




Aboard Frauxinus




Still Raymond's POV



I then hear the spacial quake alarm go off. But we are aboard Ratatoskr with Rae and Kotori. We knew it was Hermit because we saw her before an interruption by the AST. Me and Shido are on the way to the same place where we first found her and there she was. 

(Imagine Raymond helping Shido comfort Hermit aka Yoshino)




We then hear a growling. It was Yoshino.  She covers herself in shame. "Hungry? We'll get you something to eat." I look around. The aftermath was enough to pass off a war zone in Europe or the Middle East. "How about we head to our place and we'll fix you something up?" I hear Shido say. "Shido, Raymond. This is the perfect opportunity to take her to your place and ask her some questions." Kotori said in our earpieces. This could be our key to finally ending the constant rains. And the puppet. Is she a ventriloquist? Just hope she has answers before the AST puts out a bulletin.
