Fetro 4th, Year 2012
- Third Person -
It was currently 2:33 AM in the morning, Akatone had to tend to school and left Nora in the house, alone, again. She could have gone to the night class but she didn't exactly want to do school work either.
But Nora sat on her bed her dog Tiny laid down next to her, Tiny was a birthday gift from Akatone and he was very well trained, the raveonettes had the dog for about two years now and two years it took Tiny to get used to Hesperus and the other cats Akatone had.
Akatone had a plethora of pets, he had four cats, Hesperus, Stellain, Solis, and Ventus, two doberman dogs, Eques, and Bellum, fearsome names but they're sweethearts. Then he has a grey haired horse that he named Scruff, the reason Nora wasn't sure.
'Nora?'
Nora shot her head up frantically looking around for the source of the voice she heard.
'Nora, It's me, Urana. Don't start freaking out, I'm talking to you telepathically.'
Nora let out a breath of relief and relaxed slightly.
"Um..Is there something you need? You already informed me of what I am to do."
'For future instances you don't have to talk allowed to me, talking telepathically is like thoughts inside your head. But to the task at hand, I wouldn't allow you to go and face Eirene with no weapons or training, no that would suicide for you, then you'll end up like the entity Onolise.'
'Alright then, I guess. Is there something certain I have to do?'
'Hm, no. I have a crow delivering your weapon right now.'
'Exquise me? Weapon? I haven't used a weapon since Nkri's star. In other words I'm rusty like a truck of a dad who left.'
'I- don't know how to respond to that. Um the crow should be dropping off the weapon soon. Once it has arrived I will explain the basics of its use.'
'Those above I haven't trained with an actual weapon in seven years. My warping ability I use often because I often have to run from Orculi and turning my awareness off isn't an option.'
Ever so suddenly Nora heard flapping then a large thud on her window. Blind fuckers.
Turning around completely to open the window and to see a purple eyed crow with a small sack. Though the bird was twitching on the window seal after running into the glass. Nora slightly chuckled to herself. She opened her hand as the bird gave her the sack it was carrying then flew off.
Untying the knot Nora looked inside to see five small kunai? 'I never even attempted to use these, there so small, and what are you supposed to do when you run out?'
'Don't worry, they won't stay like that unless you want them to.'
'What?'
'The weapon can change into a different one; it just depends on what you want. Go ahead tell it what form you want it to take.'
Nora shrugged her shoulders and uttered the words,"Bladed War Fans" and just like that Nora watch the metals of kunai's break apart and reconstruct themselves in a different weapon, four of the former kunai's made two of main parts of the tessen fan while the last metals split is self making the holding structure of the weapon. "Well shit." Nora muttered.
'Anything else it can do?'
'`Yes actually, the weapon's name is Moíra tis varýtitas You speak Greek don't you?'
'Yes I do, Fate of Gravity, that's the name? Safely guessing it can alter gravity?'
'That's correct, No matter the weapon, gravity itself is under its control. But depending on the weapon, depending on how much gravity it controls, but it's no easy weapon to use, you will need a trainer for learning how to control Moíra tis varýtitas after that you will need to learn how to use some of your new abilities.'
'Do you have anyone specific in mind?'
'Hm for the weapon training, No but the ability training I recommend the City of Destruction or more in detail The Four Horsemen. I think you'll find it fitting, I'm sure they're missing you just as you're missing them.'
'I think I know how to use the weapon now you can go away.'
'Just teasing'
For a second Nora felt warmth wash over her as she felt the presence of Urana leave. Sighing Nora got up, got ready and left the house. Nora walked all the way to the mountains that rested on the east side of the outskirts of the City of Shadows, Nora warped all the way to the cliff top of the mountain, this was the only place in the city or close to it that you could see the sunrise. The city was always cloudy and never really did any of the suns shine there, Akatone would always tell his younger cousin 'It's because the god of city controls the weather it has.' which had Nora very curious to see what the other cities looked like.
It would be roughly two hours till the sun rose but as Nora usual impatient nature didn't take its course from the evens of the 3rd of Fetro. It was only the beginning of the year, the 4th day now and it was already hectic. Nora looked around her and watched the clouds pass fastly, she took in the thinner air and smiled in delight as she waited for the winter's sun to rise.

The blue hues of the Winters Sun passed over the dark clouds of the City of Shadows Nora took in the last instance of peace she knew she would have for a while. The blue colored sun was just barely above the horizon and Nora knew night classes had ended and she needed to speak to Akatone about weapon training.
Nora took one last good look at the sun before warping down towards the outskirts of the city she resided in, she was originally gonna meet Akatone at home but the bakery seemed like a more enjoyable place to her hungry stomach.
Walking a couple of blocks Nora smiled as the smell of baked goods hit her senses. The female ravenette opened the door of the bakery and Itsukami was happily sorting out the baked sweets at the counter, but as she heard the bell of the door, Itsukami looked at Nora with a gentle smile.
"Your really early Nora, usually the young lord arrives at this time. What can I get for you?" Nora smiled gratefully at Itsukami and ordered a strawberry shortcake, though Nora thought she might need help convincing Akatone to help her. "Can I also get two red velvet muffins?"

Nora walked back to the house in happiness as she carried her shortcake in her hands while Akatone's muffin was in a bag. Walking past the beautiful garden in front of the shared home Nora opened the door and walked inside and saw Akatone at the dining room table reading while fidgeting with his nails, which is odd because he never really fidgeted unless he was worried or stressed.
"Akatone?" Just like that Akatone picked up his head from the book and looked towards Nora then back down at his book as he stopped fidgeting with his nails and closed the volume of work.
"Um, I got you a red velvet muffin." Nora states before reaching into the bag and pulling out the baked good before gesturing it to Akatone who gladly took the treat.
"I do need a favor though.." Akatone takes a glance at her as he starts to unwrap his muffin, "I need you to train me in weapons." Akatone stops what he is doing completely to look at her. "No."
"Wait, wait, wait- Please Urana needs me to start training. She already gave me a weapon. I just need to learn how to use it!" Nora pleaded with Akatone who was stubborn and still said no.
"What about if I give you another velvet muffin?" Akatone looked at his younger cousin, eyes squinted in judgment. "Fine but I want it in the next 15 minutes." Nora quickly put her hand in the bag and handed the other muffin to Akatone who took it with a small grin.
"No complaining."
