Sky Blossom: Ex-Magical Girl (2)
(also forgot to mention this in my drawing but saki is younger here)
She sat in the room that was coated with gentle colors and littered with stuffed toys.
Clearly meant for children much younger than she was.
She was a teenager now. She didn’t need toys.
Rather than playing with them like a baby, she remained seated in the cushioned chair— the most comfortable chair she’s ever had, although she didn’t want to admit it.
She frowned. Why was she being forced to wait here? What were the adults talking about outside?
It was strange. She didn’t understand. She didn’t understand anything about these people, she didn’t understand anything that happened today.
First, they took her from her room, put her in a car, and drove her here.
Then, they got her to change into these disgustingly plain, surprisingly pleasantly comfortable clothes.
And after that, they asked all sorts of questions. Like her name and age, what she wanted to be called, or whether she was okay with living with an older boy.
And now, she was put here in this stupidly childish room, sitting idle while waiting for the adults to finish talking.
The girl scowled. She shouldn’t be here. She should be training, or studying, or fighting. There were probably dozens of monsters out there waiting to be slaughtered. She didn’t have time to be sitting around like this.
She didn’t like this. Even though their words were strangely comforting and they haven’t hurt her yet and they had the softest smile she’s ever seen from an adult, she didn’t like these people one bit.
…
Well, maybe a little bit.
They were… really nice.
But she was sure it was all a trick. They were just here to hurt her, she was sure of it.
As soon as that door opened, they would—
Her eyes widened.
Speak of the devil.
The door opened silently without a creak, and a woman walked in, clipboard in hand.
Her heart rate quickened, but she refused to let herself show her fear.
She would’ve prepared to fight, but she wasn’t supposed to hurt adults.
No.
No, this was not good.
No, she was going to—
“Hi there! Sorry for the wait,” the woman said with a smile.
…
…
She was… apologizing?
Why?
She was an adult, adults don’t need to apologize.
…
“It’s okay if you’re not ready yet,” the adult told her, kneeling down to below(?!) her level, “but would you like to pick out a new name for yourself?”
She handed the girl her clipboard.
…
She was… just handing it to her?
And letting her take it?
…
And why would she want a new name?
Sky Blossom was her name. It’s been her name for as long as she could remember. Why would she want a new…
…
…
She stared at the clipboard in confusion.
These names… these are really weird names.
They… they were just words. They didn’t even mean anything.
Names like Akari, Rika, Kimiko…
Those were weird names, really weird names.
Why would she ever want…
…
…
…
…
…huh?
She stared at the next name on the list.
That name… it looked like it would sound nice.
All of these names were stupid, of course, but this one was… less stupid.
…
She looked up from the paper, down at the adult watching her expectantly.
“You don’t have to pick right now,” the woman assured her. “If you’re not ready, we can do this later.”
…
She’d have to pick one eventually.
Whatever. If she had to take one of these, she might as well go with the one that she liked the most.
Hesitantly, the girl pointed to a name.
“…I like this one,” she muttered, still a little unsure about speaking to these people.
“…Saki,” the woman read. Then, she smiled. “It suits you!”
It does?
The girl— Saki— wasn’t so sure about that.
Then again, what did she know about what suits her or not?
It would probably grow on her.
Just like everything else.
…
“Well then, Saki… can you follow me for a second?”
…
“…okay,” Saki said.
…
…
…
Why was everyone here so… nice?
She didn’t get it.
This wasn’t something that a 13-year-old magical girl could understand.
