A/N: Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo! Chapter 2! If you
have not read Sheena: Tales of Summoning, I
suggest you do so, because this is the side story to it. Also, if you would like
the author’s, or my, views and plot construction, or the making of, Sheena:
Tales of Summoning, tell me, and it will be put under the ToS section, titled,
The Making of Sheena: Tales of Summoning
Chapter 2:
It had been two days since Seles had challenged Sheena in a battle of rights.
Sheena was busy at the Sybak Library writing everything down in a nervous sweat.
Astra was also taking notes, wearing glasses that reminded Sheena much of
Professor Raine. Celsius was also helping but her papers kept freezing randomly,
making them illegible. However, the Summon Spirit of Ice was a surprisingly good
at penmanship, so she made up her work in no time at all. Sheena began to carry
some heavy books back to their shelves. She fell over and didn’t get up for a
few minutes, crying. Some researchers noticed, but nobody cared. One human came
over. The human slowly helped Sheena pick up her books, stained with tears. The
kind person immediately recognized who Sheena was.
“You’re the person who supposedly killed the Chosen!” the human exclaimed.
Luckily nobody heard, but Sheena said nothing as another tear fell from her
face. The human continued, “You’re Raine’s friend!”
The female ninja looked up at this. Raine’s journey must be going along well.
“You know Raine?”
“Yes. She told me all about you. I’m also trying to help half-elfs out. But
Raine told me that the Chosen is dead and that you didn’t kill him. I believe
her. She saved my child; I finally let him go to New Palmacoasta’s school. He’s
very young, but they’ve lowered their age limit. I than Martel he has friends
there. However, Raine helped me with that. She saved my child and myself, so Ms.
Sheena…may I be your lawyer. It may be the only way I can help Raine.”
Sheena noticed how the woman went on to random things then back to her subject.
That would be good in how things went down and what paths were crossed and how
they were taken. She could detail her case more, to make her side prevail.
Universa suddenly appeared.
“Miss Sheena, I would advise it. I, too am being a lawyer in this, and Cresenta
and Sola as well. Since, we are doing this by free will, your mana need no be
wasted. I may also add that Gnome is preparing the necessary answers to
questions of the court, with all due seriousness. Eefreet is also being a
surprise witness, since as a Summoner, you are the eyes and ears of the Summon
Spirits you have made pacts with, metaphorically. The Group of the Wind, Sylph,
and the honorable maiden of water Undine are creating a slide show of your
memories with The Voice’s commentary and no personal things. Sheena we are all
going to help you in this time of need. Maxwell, essentially, will tell the
court not to blame Mizuho, nor you. He is opening the case up, so to speak. He
is going to tell the summary of what we are protecting, your well being of not
being in jail. Origin, he is writing the paperwork, as well. He also knows some
various court knowledge, so advise him when you need to. Volt is keeping watch
on Mizuho in case any attackers come. Shadow is also helping with this. Luna and
Aska are both keeping tabs on Seles, as her maids are doing to you over behind
that building.”
Sheena glanced over and many woman randomly disappeared. A hat fell off a maid,
and a hand slowly crept in to get it.
“Why is she spying on me?” Sheena asked, taking her glance off the library
window.
“Simple.” Celsius said, giving Sheena a chill, “She wants to take anything bad
on you, so she has more things to offer to the court.”
“Yes.” Astra came up to the four, “I’m afraid the court is already on her side
anyway.”
“Okay.” Sheena finally said, “Um…what’s your name?” The female ninja’s tears had
vanished long ago. She had confidence now, confidence that she was going to win.
“My name is Crimsonia. I have studied in law for quite some time, so I would be
honored to help.”
Sheena smiled, “Thank you. If it’s not too bossy, can you help me with law
research…and you know explain to me more?”
“Certainly.”
The four went back to the table they were at as somebody suddenly threw a book
at Sheena’s head. It was frozen by a flick from Celsius, then charred to ashes
by Eefreet. A maid ran away.
“How did they even get here?” Sheena asked to nobody in particular.
“It’s rumored they snuck abroad Seles’ ship because they got bored. The maids’
names are Saphfyre, Rubyi, Emereld, Topazen, Sardnyox, Dialmond, and Lapisa.”
“They sound familiar. Are they related?” Celsius questioned.
“They all bear resemblance to gems.” Universa answered. I assume they are a
family, as chances of finding women with those particular names is almost
impossible.”
“Yes!” Crimsonia exclaimed, “The Redjewel Family! Except the gems they describe
are not all red…but that doesn’t matter now. We must find a more secretive area.
One where no one will expect us.”
“How about the Research Institute?” Sheena questioned, “The people there are
friendly enough, and the still have a lot of books there, on everything,
really!”
“Then we’re off!” Crimsonia yelled, “To the Research Institute!”
The Summon Spirits disappeared and the two women were off, leaving their books
behind.
A/N: Well, chapter 2 is done! Let’s keep going, shall we?
