Breathing hard from the mental stress that comes from losing control of one's body and attempting fratricide, Aoi's knees began to buckle under her weight as she dropped down to the floor. The magical spear which had appeared in her hands moments ago continued to stay embedded in the wall she had aimed for while trying to avoid running her sister through, while it's wielder watched Hana slowly make her exit, following a voice that only she and the other stone warriors could hear. [color=6ecff6]"Hana,"[/color] she whispered, reaching her hand out despite knowing the blind girl was too far gone. [color=9e0b0f][i]It's too late, child. She has fallen to whatever unholy forces lead these people on their destructive crusade. If you shall not allow me to end your sister's suffering though, I shall not force you to do so. Know though that such a curse is unlikely to have any way of being reversed. More innocent blood shall be shed from your decision.[/i][/color] [color=6ecff6][i]I... I don't care. I can't do it. Not after all I've done to her already. She doesn't deserve this.[/i][/color] [color=9e0b0f][i]So often is that the case for God's children. However, in the end, he has a plan for us all and we must learn to play our role. No matter how... difficult it is to do what is asked of us.[/i][/color] This gave the student pause. It was only now listening to this religious man preach about his devotion that the question she had asked him earlier returned to her head. [color=6ecff6][i]Who are you?[/i][/color] Aoi asked the voice. [color=9e0b0f][i]I am Longinus, and by installing the lancer card as you have done, you have gained the power to wield my power and my weapon.[/i][/color] [color=6ecff6][i]You mean-?[/i][/color] [color=9e0b0f][i]Yes, child. That spear which you pierced into the walls of your institution of learning is The Spear of Destiny.[/i][/color] Kuremi, Rebecca, and any other students who may have been in the school's courtyard would be able to see as their fellow classmate returned to her feet and pulled out the weapon with ease, as if the wall before her was styrofoam. She turned back to them, still covered in her class card's strange armor and the color of here eyes missing, before attempting an awkward smile. [color=6ecff6]"Um, I'm not gonna lie, I'm about as confused as you all are."[/color]
