Week 2 – Day 4 ( after school )
The group
split up after they were dismissed from class, everyone wanting a bit of time
to relax, get some food, have a bath, etc, before going back to school that
evening for the special meeting.
On the way
home Aoki saw, in an ally, what seemed to be a fellow student being confronted
by a shadow of a werewolf. Being alone and tired, she did not stop to
investigate, but rather hurried home to call Terra. The acting Occult Club
president said that she would report the matter to the student council wizard.
Meanwhile, Nagino
the quiet girl who sits at the center of class, knocks on Kimmy’s door. She
asks about what kind of demon will be summoned when a certain ritual ( she
describes it in detail ) is performed. Kimmy being a Shinto shrine maiden has a
good knowledge of rituals and she believes the one Nagino is talking about will
summon a vengeance demon.
“Why are
you asking all this?” Kimmy inquires.
“Because I
witnessed a girl performing that ritual this evening. Unfortunately I could not
confirm the identity of the caster or the target.” Nagano answers in her usual unemotional tone.
Kimmy calls
Terra to ask about known spell casters in the school who might be able to do
that ritual. She is surprised when Terra answered and urgently said “Can’t
talk now, werewolf after us. Kanobi
Park.”
Kimmy says
“I guess the demon will have to wait.” She then calls Aoki and Anya. “We have
to save Terra from a werewolf.”
“Does
anyone have a silver bullet?” Anya asks. Although her dad has a large
collection of guns and ammo, silver bullets are not among his holdings.
As it turns
out, it is one of Aoki’s hand, little Miki Wada who solves the problem of a
silver weapon. She has her own special power to ‘snatch’ things. So after
visualizing a silver knife for killing werewolves, she reaches into her
backpack and pulls it out.
Thus we
have Kimmy, Shine and Nagano,
who insisted on coming along, meeting up with Aoki and Anya for the werewolf
hunt. Naturally Anya is in full armor with a ton of guns.
When they
explore the park they soon come across a few smoldering fires, what seems to be
the burnt up corps of a giant wolf and two very beat up students; Terra and
the wizard Dresdon. As Anya keeps a gun aimed at the corps, Aoki and Kimmy give first aid
to the injured students. Then suddenly Dresdon regains consciousness and says “It’s
not dead, yet.”
The
werewolf, who had been quietly regenerating, snarls and attacks. Anya gets a
few shots into it, before it slams her to the ground. Bullets don’t seem to do
much at all. Aoki tries several times to stab it with the sliver knife, but the
creature is very good at dodging.
The situation
was looking bad until Nagano
surprised everyone by grabbing the creature in a wrestling hold. She proved to
be much stronger than she looked. She held it in place so Anya could drive the
knife into its heart. As with many magical creatures it quickly dissolved into dust
once it was actually dead.
After that
it was off to the hospital for the injured, including Anya. The official report
would read; kids attacked in park by big guy with knife.
