The ground burning in flames, the sky crying with rain, white versed black.
The battle of Hell and Heaven.
Corpses filled the ground, roars of anger filled the air, and blasts of power lit the sky.
The battle of God and Maou.
"Uwaa." Lunaru said as she sat up with a bit of drool at the corner of her mouth and droopy eyes from being shaken.
"Naru, you're in my bed, again." Ravel said in her large white tee-shirt and red panties while looking exasperated, "Naked… again."
The Phenex swore in her mind at how both the Gremory sisters had the same habit.
"Mm." Lunaru said as she rubbed her eyes and frowned a bit.
Ravel saw this, "Did you have that dream again?" she asked in slight concern.
Lunaru turned her head to her friend, "No, I was dreaming of endless ramen again." She pouted, "How could you wake me from such a paradise Ravvy!" she whined and pounded a pillow with her fists in mock anger.
Ravel stared at her and rolled her eyes, "Of course, what was I thinking? Baka." She said and pushed Lunaru out of the bed, "And put your panties on!"
Lunaru grumbled from the ground and grabbed her panties and stood up, putting one leg in at a time and leaned forward as she pulled them up, getting a little jiggle from her chest. She grabbed her bra and put it on and turned away from Ravel.
The blonde sighed and clipped her in, "Now go into your room and get ready for school."
"Yes mom."
"No sassing!"
"Eep!" Lunaru said as she dove out of the room to avoid Ravel's deadly pillow aim.
Team Lunaru, after their totally badass arrival into town, had made their power base in a large house that Sirzechs set up for her and her Peerage.
It was three floors and reinforced with magic to make it sturdy, in case someone let off a spell by accident. The exterior was all brick with a black tiled roof, giving it an old medieval feeling, but still cozy.
The first floor held all the guys' rooms, kitchen, two bathrooms, one for guests and the other larger one for the guys, a living room, and a dining room.
The second floor held all the girls' rooms, three bathrooms for the girls to use and share, they were large enough for two to share, each room had a large closet space and all personal creature comforts for each room to go with the girl's tastes.
The third floor was the "war room" that had a wall size TV and game consoles, a library, two guest rooms, and a storage room.
The basement held a large reinforced training room for obvious reasons with all sorts of training equipment and showers.
The backyard had a heated swimming pool, a big backyard for training or just playing around, lawn chairs, and an outside dining area.
Lunaru walked into her room, which was basically the exact same as her room at the Gremory mansion.
She walked up to a small basket that had a red velvet pillow in it and petted the creature resting on it, "Hey Kurama, time to get up." She said softly as she got a squeak in return as a yellow foot long, furry pipe-like creature snaked up her arm.
This was her familiar, Kurama. He was a Kudakitsune or a pipe fox. A Kudakitsune had two forms: a snake-like mini version, and the traditional Kyuubi when it reveals its true power. It was able to create gigantic fireballs, also known as Foxfire or streams of fire, and could detect evil beings. She had named it Kurama as it felt like the right name at the time for some reason. Kurama seems to love fried tofu and always likes to give her little kisses on the cheek.
Kurama draped himself around her neck and gave his owner a good morning kiss, getting a giggled from Lunaru who rubbed his head, "Nice to see you're as energetic as always buddy." She said as she unraveled him from her neck and told him she would be back after taking a quick shower.
One shower later, Lunaru walked back into her drying her wet hair and grabbed a pair of clean panties and bra. She threw on her uniform and held out her hand as Kurama snaked up her arm once more, resting around her neck under her uniform.
"Let's go see who's up." Lunaru said in a cheer as she rushed down the stairs to see Kurogane sipping some coffee and reading another ninja manga as a muffin lay next to him on the table.
"Morning!"
"Morning." Kurogane returned as he took another sip of coffee. He was dressed in a blue tracksuit with a whistle around his neck and a shinai resting against the kitchen counter.
"Are you allowed to have that for school?" Lunaru asked as she grabbed a bowl, milk, and a box of Chilled Flacks.
"Probably not." Was the amused retort.
"Then how is the principal going to let you have it?"
"I can be very persuasive." The swordsman said with a dark chuckle.
Lunaru nodded her head, "So true. So, sound off." She said munching on her cereal.
"Gawain and the Vacuum are outside playing with their familiars." Kurogane listed off.
Ah, yes. Ryofu had a small dog named Sekito (Red Hare) as her familiar and took care of other dogs, cats, and birds she picked up along the way. Gawain had three Peregrine Falcons named Agravain, Gaheris, and Gareth respectively, as he practiced falconry.
"The pup is out for his usual morning run. Also took Kuromaru for company." The ninja said, referring to his own large talking dog familiar, he also had an eye patch! Kotarou basically had his dog spirits as his familiars. It was similar to Aya, who had a few crows as her familiars, "Entei's in the underworld, training. He said he'd be there at your call at any time until he comes back for dinner." Good old Entei, always working hard and looking out for her.
"Camera girl left early to get gossip and such around the school, you know, her usual deal. Mavis went with her, probably finding modern education exciting. You know how peppy she can get." Yep, that sounded like Aya and Mavis for you, "The rabbit is probably at her castle sipping her tea with her stupid cat and bat balloon… can you please order her to come to school?" Kurogane asked with a pleading look.
"… You just want to boss her around in P.E."
"… I will love you for eternity if you do."
"… What kind of muffin is that?"
"Chocolate chip."
"Trade you that for getting Rachel there."
"And this is why you are my boss lady." He said as he let out a villain-like laugh as he gave her the muffin that sealed his victory.
His King was a sucker for muffins and pastries.
That rabbit was going to get it. No one got away with calling him a dog for so long without any form of payback!
"Seems like a good first day so far… sadly it won't last, will it?" as the voice of Ravel as she walked down the stairs in her uniform with her familiar.
"Leonardo, stop ah num numming my hair." Ravel ordered the green snapping turtle on her shoulder with a piece of her hair in his mouth.
Leonardo gave a grunt and let go of her hair.
Lunaru polished off her bowl by drinking the milk and turned to the clock and gasped, "Ah, we have to go!" She didn't want to be late!
Lunaru grabbed the muffin and rushed to the door where her school bag was and shouted, "Come on Ravvy!"
Ravel smirked and petted Leonardo on the head. She wanted to give him some breakfast, but it seemed she had to go, "Can you give him some food?" she asked as she handed the turtle to the warrior.
Kurogane nodded and put the turtle on his shoulder, "She does know you set the clock twenty minutes fast right?" he asked with a smirk as he put the manga down.
Ravel just looked smug, "Of course not. It's the only way to make sure she doesn't leave at the last minute to do a cliché toast in the mouth run like from one of her little animes."
The ninja snorted and walked to the fridge and grabbed some lettuce for the turtle, "You are evil."
"Well I am a devil."
"Ravvy!"
"I'm coming!" Ravel said as she ran to the door.
"Here you go little guy." Kurogane said letting the turtle munch on his shoulder as he went back to read his manga for another 19 minutes until he just teleported to the school.
He absently wondered why his King didn't do that but shrugged. She was weird like that, not that it was a bad thing.
