Show Me the Truth I Desire

Just by the presence of this handgun, see how far Ushiromiya Ange's reasoning has taken her. [[Independent Ushiromiya Ange blog, open to crossovers and OCs. Links for info are on the left.]]

Even with the best of reflexes it was hard to avoid running into a person who so suddenly came to cross her path. Rise also was not prepared for the sharp pain in her left foot that inevitably would follow its collision with one of the falling books that just had to hit her with one of its corners; a yelp being her immediate response. Honestly, how clumsy could this person be?

“Hey, can’t you watch out–” Pain truly didn’t bring out the best in people, and the same was true for the idol; but her tone softened when her gaze finally fell upon the other girl’s expression. She did look really sorry; no, she actually looked like something else was troubling her as well.

“I-it’s fine; I’m fine”, she insisted with a weak smile, before leaning down to pick up the book - if only for the sake of lessening the pain - and handed it back to its owner. “What about you? Are you all right?”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

A gaze over the other girl made Ange realize that she had ran into a famous idol, and a really sweet one, at that. She took the book that the other girl held out to her. “I... I’m fine. I just have things on my mind, and it distracted me. I’m incredibly sorry, especially because you’re a famous person...”

She got back on her feet and offered a hand to the other girl. “I can make it up to you, if you want company. I’m Ang--Yukari Kotobuki,” she said, correcting herself at the last moment. Ange’s family was known as well, but for less savory things, and her pen name was something she wanted to get used to.

Family, huh? He can relate to her problem quite so, for long years of being shrouded from the truth about his parents have passed, all due to a forced amnesia; once lost memories even now having to be pushed away as they resurface with the thought. However, her feelings are understood, which gives him a boosted motive of seeing that she completes her quest for discovery as safely as possible. 

Lips curve into a smile as he tries to reassure her, “You’re welcome, Ange. I’m sure you will find what you’re looking for and I’ll do all that I can to help you. I know how it hard it is to be hidden from the truth, so please, rely on me!”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

Ange smiled up at her new bodyguard, feeling a bit nostalgic as she heard his words. “Thank you... My last bodyguard kept trying to dissuade me from finding out the truth, so I appreciate your kind words.” For a brief moment, she considered what her plans in order to discover the truth about her family would be, and then she recalled something somewhat related.

“In a few days, I’m going to try and get a meeting with a writer who writes fiction stories about the tragedy in which my family died... it’s very tactless, but I think that Tohya Hachijo may have certain answers...” That writer seemed like an egotistical woman based on the fact that getting a meeting with her was more difficult than getting into the most prestigious colleges in Japan, but Ange needed to meet her, and having a bodyguard by her side might keep her calm and less likely to snap at the woman writing fan fiction about her family’s deaths.

He was not sure how it happened nor how these strangers knew of his guard position back in the shrine, but the willingness to help and prove his worth rendered all other mysteries invalid to his interests– the task to protect an heir by the name of Ange Ushiromiya, taken without another thought. Second son endowed with the twin sacred Kumo prides, serving not to harm but solely to protect, will do all within his power and skill to do such; or rather, he hopes so. 

With the given instruction of meeting the female in a lobby of what was a hotel, he arrives with intention of seeking her out. However, limited knowledge of the world around him had come to distract him momentarily with wonder, almost giving him a child-like appearance. There was so much new forms of advancement around him, back home were still ages away. Fortunately, a voice had called out for his attention, which was of equal fortune to be the very person he was required to work for, ( or not? Might have witnessed that… ). Perhaps, it was a good thing he stood out among a crowd here, in any case.

“That’s right.” Putting on a serious demeanor, he introduces himself as well, complete with a bow of respect. “I am Soramaru Kumo. Please use me as you deem necessary, Ushiromiya-san.”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

From what Ange had heard from her aunt’s friend, Soramaru Kumo was an excellent bodyguard, and he looked and gave off an impression of being genuinely capable of protecting her. Which was what she desired in a bodyguard, not wondering if her bodyguard was going to betray her when the job was done. “You can address me as Ange if you want. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Soramaru Kumo.”

Ange stood up from where she had been standing, clutching her cousin’s diary to her chest. “My aunt on my mom’s side keeps trying to hunt me down, but I’m trying to figure out the truth about what happened to my family a long time. I thank you in advance for accompanying me on this little adventure of mine.”

Maybe it was the allure of however much money or power being the heir to Ushiromiya that had people trying to kill her, especially her mom’s sister. Maybe for that woman in particular, it was some twisted revenge. Either way, Ange needed a bodyguard as she tried to go about places to discover the truth. Her aunt’s old friend had hired one for her, but due to this guy’s tendency to flirt with her, and a continually-growing distrust in him, Ange had decided to get someone other than Amakusa to protect her.

Well, here she sat in the lobby of the hotel that old guy had told her to wait at, waiting for someone who was most definitely going to protect her and not betray her at the last second, or lose to a little kid’s pranks. She saw a person with a presence different to most other people’s, and looked a bit relieved. “Are you the guy hired to protect me? I’m Ange Ushiromiya,” she called out to him.

{ ∞ } “It would be an honor Ange-sama! I will be sure to eliminate any threats and keep danger away!” The furniture nodded as her rabbit ears twitched. A simple bodyguard mission sounded simple enough for her. She was certain she could handle a mission like this alone.

[ushiromiyaenjye]

“Thank you, 45. I’d normally try to leave it to Amakusa, but... there’s something about him I can’t trust... but I can always trust Maria-One-chan’s furniture...” Maybe it was memories of another fragment, but she wanted to avoid Amakusa at all costs. Plus, this gave her the chance to socialize better with the furniture she didn’t know as well. “I heard you used to serve Mo--- I mean, Auntie Eva. She must have been strict...”

{ ∞ } “R-Reporting for duty Ange-sama!” The Chiester immediately salutes the one who summoned her, ears shooting straight up as she stood in position.

[ushiromiyaenjye]

Ange smiled at her furniture, wondering why she hadn’t really summoned the Chiesters before. After all, they had served her dear older cousin. “Ah, 45.... I’m glad to see you... will you please accompany as my bodyguard for my trip?”

👑 Oh! Good morning, miss! 👑

👸 Sonia says happily to the redhead in front of her, a golden smile painted on her porcelain like face. 👸

[ushiromiyaenjye]

The red-haired girl felt a little surprised, hearing kind words for the first time in a while. “Ah... a good morning to you, too, ma’am...” she said, trying to return the friendly smile.

Young Heirs

It wasn’t often that Ange left her place by the ocean, since she was really caught up in writing a book, but her bodyguard has insisted upon it. Something about not staying cooped up in the house, and that she’d be really safe where they were. Someday, she’d have to beat up Amakusa for being right, she decided, as the writer’s block she had was no longer plaguing her.

In any case, she had decided to sit on the beach to watch waves, clutching some flowers she had bought. She was intending to toss them to the ocean for a small little memorial for her older cousin. She heard some footsteps behind her, and stretched her arms above her head. “If you’d like... you can join me... whoever you may be,” she called out to them.

“Neither crime nor punishment will be gone from the world, because humans are unable to know their future,” read the poem in one of the books Ange held in her arms. If that didn’t fit her life, well... nothing really could. The other book she held was her older cousin’s diary, which was, for the most part, far more positive. In any case, she didn’t enjoy wallowing in her suffering, and could generally use a distraction, even if it wasn’t real.

She rubbed a tear away from her eye, and turned around sharply, almost bumping into someone while dropping her books. “Ah, I’m so sorry... I didn’t see you there...” She adjusted her hair bobbles, feeling quite nervous since it was the first time in a while she had spoken with someone who wasn’t trying to get her killed. “Are you hurt? I truly apologize...”

"Hello there." Maruilla said to Ange as he sat on a bench.

The young witch observed the man curiously, before deciding to answer back his greeting. “… Hello.”

[muse-mess-deactivated20160808]

“My name is Maruilla. What’s yours?” Maruilla said as he stared into Ange’s own eyes.

[ushiromiyaenjye]

What a relief, that she wasn’t completely recognizable from her little stunts about jumping off buildings and that whole inheritance business. “... I’m Ange Ushiromiya. Nice to meet you, I suppose.”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

"Hello there." Maruilla said to Ange as he sat on a bench.

The young witch observed the man curiously, before deciding to answer back his greeting. “... Hello.”

"Ange! Maria is so happy to see you!"- Maria

“Maria-onee-chan…. it’s been so long since I last saw you…”

[swxxtnsourvampirx]

The brunnette smiled widly giving onee-chan a hug nuzzling the red head, [[✞]]– “Maria hasn’t seen Ange-onee-chan in such a long time shes grown so much!”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

It filled Ange’s eyes with tears, getting to hug the cousin of hers she had been so close to after so long. “Yeah, I’ve gotten a lot taller in twelve years... and by a miracle, we met again...”

[ushiromiyaenjye]

"Ange! Maria is so happy to see you!"- Maria

“Maria-onee-chan.... it’s been so long since I last saw you...”
