Sister Sister (Part Three)

Richard was headed for his room when he heard Rebecca and Kira talking. Rebecca was trying to convince Kira to stay out of combat situations and Kira wasn't having it. 'Good for you Kira' he thought. Richard stood on the doorway and listened but he didn't interrupt the debate. He wanted to hear both of their thoughts on the subject before he chimed in. Kira was a time mage and that meant she had some really impressive abilities to make herself useful in combat. The problem was she just didn't seem to know how to employ those abilities. Swords were also foolish choice of weapon in his opinion but he was no fighter so who was he to judge. He started thinking about the books he had read on time magic and all the useful spells that mages had used over the years. Kira really needed to read more about her craft.

Richard stood there leaning against the door frame. He was surprised neither of them had noticed him yet.

Rebecca walked over to the laundry basket and dumped the contents of her basket in to Kira’s laundry basket. “Kira, I just don’t know” she said softly. There was a sense of uncertainty to her voice. “I believe in you, but I am not sure that you can stand on your own.”

She walked over to the basket filled with cleaning supplies and pulled out a cloth towel and a bottle of cleaner. “Okay look maybe you are right. Maybe I am just worried that you will get hurt” she said as she started to clean Kira’s dresser. “But do you blame me. After all you really don’t know your own abilities and you don’t take the time that is required to master them. Things are getting serious and I am scared that you will be hurt out there.”

There was a stain on the dresser that just wouldn’t come up, “what the heck is this?” Rebecca said as she added additional cleaner to the stain, “I mean really Kira, how can you live like this.”

Kira listened to her sister thinking she could see her point. Mostly because she didn't really show off when she had the chance to. The thought of setting off a paradox and bringing fourth a demon accidentally was her biggest fear. " thats just the thing i do know them....am just afaird of setting off a paradox. I see from frist hand what it can do and i would like to avoid it. I do have a plan though when it comes to combat. Its just a slow progress at the moment cause the steps i need to take aren't in Colorado. "

Kira looked at the stain on the dresser. " i believe that might be from the drink i accidently spilled a few months ago " she paused hearing Rebecca's next statement. " Quite easily when I had my net to keep those darn Gremlins away. " she teased.

If sending her elsewhere for a few days could make Kira better in the field, he was all for it. "You taking about Japan again?" Richard asked from his place at the door, "why don't you go? I can send you anytime you're ready".

Rebecca looked at Kira after mentioning the stain and then blaming it on the Gremlins, "No Kira, its just laziness!" Rebecca walked over to the basket of cleaning supplies and picked up a scrubbing pad. She starting to scrub the stain as she spoke, "look I can understand being scared of Paradox. It is a very real thing to be worried about. But you can't allow that to stop you from being a mage."

She looked at the stain and noticed it was getting less and less of a visible stain. Rebecca wasn't finished with it. "Listen" she said pressing down on the pad getting the sticky gooey thing up, "I would love to have you beside me in combat. But you have to.....earn" she said then paused. "Earn, prove that you wont be a hindrance to Simon and I. I know you have the ability but can you use that ability in the field or are you just a support mage like Ricard is."

Kira heard the sound of Richard's voice and turned her head seeing him standing in the door frame. She thought it over for an moment. " Well other then going there and finding a teacher that knows how to make swords. I dont really know what the duelist wants me to do. My guest would be to make a sword of my own since he reference that my swords was trainning weapons. I am thinking about a sword that has essence in it since he talked about his had essence in them. " she paused hearing Rebecca and starried at her. It seemed Rebecca had failed to noticed Richard. " Rebecca, I know you enjoy cleaning and all but Richard right here. As for proving myself i think i have an idea. "
