Pixie Dust
It was just after lunch when the power went out. It would seem that one of the main solar panels that kept Chaldea's lights and automatic doors working had been hit by a chunk of ice outside. So a few of the older servants and masters have gathered the younger servants into the common area to keep them "busy" for a while until everything is fixed. What a great idea...not, they were running around rampant, each causing their own type chaos.
"We need to keep them occupied with something before lose my shit!" Caster Cu growls as he tries to shake Hans off his leg. "No more Hans! That's enough! get off me!" He shouts.
"Please Cuuuuu! Make me fly again!" He whines.
Caster Cu places his index finger and thumb together on the bridge of his nose and closes his eyes cursing to himself.
Artoria, Darumid and their masters have their hands full with Billy the Kid playing cops and robbers, which is becoming more and more like the real thing as they go on.
And Kid Gil...god save us all, has somehow convinced Shirou that sword throwing is a good thing to do inside. I thought Shirou was smarter than that. But it would seem he is extremely competitive and easily persuaded into doing almost anything when it comes to swords.
It was absolute chaos and destruction in the room and I found myself standing beside my servant Achilles watching it all unravel, waiting for some horrible disaster to happen.
Achilles stands, arms crossed with his chin rested on as fist.
"So this is fucking nuts." He states, then he slyly moves in closer to me and wraps an arm around my waist. "If we went back to your room no one would notice." He whispers into my ear.
With one death glare and growl from me, he quickly removes his hands surrendering.
"Just a suggestion!" He laughs.
"We need to get this under control before they break something. Or someone loses an arm or leg...or ...we just need to get everyone sitting down!" I cry, hands on my head.
"Hmmm, I don't know how to do that." He replies.
"What do we all have in common?" Caster asks, trying to think logically.
"Ugh I have no idea." I reply and caster Cu grins deviously. "If this is another one of your stupid riddles, then please save it and just come out with it before I lose my goddamn mind." As I say the last words Billy crashes into me knocking me onto the ground, I instinctively grab onto Achilles as I go down, pulling him with me. We crash to the floor and Billy does a tuck and roll jumping to his feet.
"Aha!!! We got you robber! It's jail time for you!" He shouts pointing a gun at me.
"Hey! That's enough kid!!!" Achilles snaps.
But Billy being the stubborn and troublesome child he is, ignores Achilles and grabs my legs, he flips me over and begins to hogtie me with his rope. I struggle against his strength, all the while wondering how a child can be so strong, and Cu takes control. With a flick of his finger Billy is floating in the air. Thank god.
Achilles comes to my aid and begins to untie me, just as a sword comes barreling at our heads.
"Oh my god!!" I scream and push myself away from Achilles dodging the blade.
Now, there is something I've kept a secret ever since I started here at Chaldea. Something that no one knows I'm capable of doing and it was time to show everyone. Although using this as the last thing I ever wanted to do, mostly because it is embarrassing and I have no idea how to "undo" it. Exposing this to everyone will most likely cause some problems for me down the road. But what the hell...here it goes .
With my hands and legs finally free I stand and begin to draw mana at an unnatural rate, which causes everyone to stop what they are doing and look at me. Now that I have their attention, I open my magic circuits and let it go. And like fairy dust, a burst of glitter and sweet smelling dust explodes into the air and everything in the room becomes weightless and petrified. The only one standing unfrozen is caster Cu who has put a barrier up around himself, shielding his lungs from the "pixie dust" I spewed over everything. His eyes stare in shock at what I have just done, and he looks at me with his mouth ajar.
"What?" I ask innocently.
"Where in Tinkerbell hell did that come from?" He gasps.
I scratch my head attempting to explain. But I honestly don't know, I have never known, I just assumed I inherited it. I purse my lips together and shrug.
"Ok so now that you've paralyzed the room and contaminated it, our next plan of action is....?" He asks looking around again.
"Well...shit...I didn't think that far ahead." I reply blushing slightly.
"I can't help you on this one sweetheart, and I can't believe I'm saying this but, this type of magic is beyond me, I hope you're able to put everything back to normal." He puts his hands into his cloak pockets taking a closer look at some gold dust floating in front of him.
I smile. "Ummm...maybe we can wait until the power comes back on and figure it out?"
He nods his head slightly and chuckles. "I like your style master! Care to share a drink with me while these idiots are preoccupied?" He glances at Achilles who is completely frozen in place floating above us.
I look around at my disarray and think, what they don't know won't hurt them.
"Fuck it! Why not?" I reply.
And a devilish smile tugs at his cheeks leaving me wondering if I've gotten myself into more trouble than I was before
