PANDORA HEARTS !
OMAKE !
Sarah entered an entirely white room reluctantly. She was dressed in a grey school uniform with a short skirt and thigh-high socks. On the bridge of her nose were resting round glasses, circling her bloody red eyes. She took a little white card in her hand and started reading it with her eternally flat tone.
"Dear readers, thanks for following 'Ashes in the Snow' and supporting us until the end. I am really grateful."
She paused.
"Is it okay now?" She asked bluntly turning to the girl hiding in the corner of the room.
"Yes perfect! Wonderful!" Sharon answered giggling like a teenage girl (wait … maybe she was one?)
"These clothes just suit you so well Miss Sarah! Let's try more!"
Sarah gulped slightly
CUT !
~¤O¤~
"So this is Miss Sarah? Too bad I we couldn't meet sooner!" A little blond with piercing green eyes said. He took a red rose in his hand (where was he hiding it?) and took her hand in his. "The depths of your eyes in the glowing su-"
"Wait a minute manservant; you can't go talking to the seaweed head friends without my permission!" A cute girl with long brown hair exclaimed dragging Oz toward her.
Sarah blinked, not understanding the situation
"She is not my friend and for the last time I AM NOT A SEAWEED HEAD!" Gil also exclaimed
"Nice to meet you Miss Alice, I heard a lot about you Mr Oz." The white-haired girl said thinking it was time to great her new acquaintances.
"Eeeeh so Gil talks about me"
"Yes, a lot. You seem to take a really important place in his thoughts."
"His seaweed thoughts" Alice commented to attract attention to her
"That's not true! Both aren't true!" The Raven denied
"I agree that Gilbert's hair have the wavy appearance of seaweed but they lack their color, texture and smell." Sarah analyzed seriously
"What?" Oz and Alice asked at the same time not used to the girl's behavior.
"Don't pay attention, she is always like that." Gil sighed
There was a moment of silence and then a sudden noise coming from the Fireplace.
"Hey kids, it's Santa!" The silver-haired Hatter said his usual smile plastered on his face
"We have candy for you so come with us! Kekekeke" His doll added from her usual spot on Break's shoulder.
"Said like this, it sound like pedoph-"
"How many times must I tell you to use the door Break?" Gil shouted, interrupting Sarah's sentence.
Break approached Oz slowly, completely ignoring Gil who was now boiling with anger and Sarah who was, well just like always.
"Ne, ne, Oz-kun don't you know that…" and he continued in an inaudible murmur in the blonds' ear.
"What? What is it Clown?" Alice asked not liking their secret conversation.
"EEEH? Gil kissed Miss Sarah?"
Gil's red face turned even redder, not because of anger anymore.
"I-I- I…. it's not…. I-" He started stammering
"So they formed a contract?" Alice asked interested
"No Miss Alice, Miss Sarah isn't a chain." Break lectured
"Then why?" Alice continued
Suddenly, Alice's shoulder was gripped by a strong hand.
"Well, Miss Alice maybe we could ask them!" Sharon said smiling brightly
"Sharon when did you get here?" Oz asked surprised
"As soon as I heard the word KISS!"
Gil, Oz, Break's thoughts: "young maidens are scary"
"Sooo, Gil has become an adult now…" Oz mocked slightly
"No… wait… I-" Gil started but was interrupted by the feeling that something was tugging his coat from behind. He turned back to see that Sarah was hiding behind him, her body pressed against his back. She looked at him, expressionless and brought her index finger in front of her mouth to tell him to stay quiet.
He had to admit that was kind of cute…
Wait! Why was she doing this now? She couldn't possibly be afraid of something.
"Brother!"
Oh okay, now Gil was the one who was afraid.
Vince approached his brother, slowly examining him from head to toes and then smiling.
"Huhu, Miss Sarah, I see that you don't really remember what I told you…"
Gil thought that he felt her shiver slightly but maybe it was just his imagination.
So she was intimidated by Vince… How strange, what could he possibly have done to her…?
"I don't want to know!" Gil said, expressing his thoughts out loud.
"What is it brother, are you alright?" Vince asked concerned
But no-one had time to answer because a cute blond girl with big breast arrived with a nice timing.
"Brother! It's been a while!" She smiled
"Ada! I'm glad to see you here!" Oz exclaimed
"Oh Miss Ada, what a pleasure to see you. I think I should prepare some tea." Sharon said seeming really pleased.
And like magic Vincent had disappeared and Sarah wasn't hiding anymore.
A young girl with silver hair, that had been here for a while without being noticed, approached the red-eyed girl and whispered in her ear before leaving quickly
"Sorry but Vincent-sama likes persecuting white-haired girls… and also regular girls…"
Gilbert shivered; did he just saw Echo going out by the window? This was totally crazy! Oh god he was so tired.
~¤O¤~
And so they all drank a soothing cup of Darjeeling tea while eating few meat pieces for Alice and a few pastries for the others … Well most of them were stolen by Break.
"So Miss Sarah, about that kiss…You know, between you and Mister Gilbert" Sharon asked mellifluously but her eyes determined, burning with the otome flame.
Gil spat out his tea on Emily before turning as red as a tomato.
"No Emily! You were so young; you didn't deserve such a tragic end!" Break cried over the soaked body of his doll.
Then there was an awkward silence, everyone waiting for Sarah to answer; Oz holding Gil back so he wouldn't speak.
The girl blinked twice.
"What do you want to know about it?" Sarah calmly asked Sharon.
The lady was a bit taken aback by this response but continued nonetheless.
"So there actually was a kiss, you don't deny it?" She asked again, really excited
Sarah nodded slowly.
"S-so, how was it? When was it? How come? Why? Did you lik-" Sharon was stopped in her frenzy by Break's hand on her shoulder (who suddenly recovered from the brutal death of his beloved doll)
"Ojou-sama, maybe it would be a good idea to let Miss Sarah talk if you want answers."
Sharon blushed, slightly ashamed by her sudden outburst
"Y-yeah… So Miss Sarah, go ahead please." She demanded, still determined to know more.
"I am sorry but these details are top secret for they concern the Piper's case."
Sharon's jaw dropped and Gil sighed relieved; he was glad she didn't talk about it. Maybe she realized it was inappropriate or maybe she was as uncomfortable about it as he was… maybe…
"Bu-but I'm a Pandora Agent too, I want to know!" Sharon exclaimed like a spoiled child
"Miss Sharon, I don't really understand what is going on but I think you shouldn't barge into people's private life like this…" The little voice of Ada who had listened silently until then attracted everyone's attention.
"Gil seems happy like this so we should let them be." She added flashing a smile to the Raven
Sharon looked at Ada intensively for a few seconds before asking with a bright smile on her face.
"Miss Ada, you seem beaming, do you by any chance have a boyfriend?"
And for the rest of the day the room was lively and full of joy and innocence. Sarah felt relaxed in this at first unfamiliar atmosphere; thanks to all these nice persons she wasn't afraid anymore. And mostly, there was always this clumsy but reassuring and strong presence beside her, like he belonged here. The corner of her lips curved just slightly, almost invisibly.
Maybe this was what they called feeling at home.
5 facts I didn't have time or occasion to insert in the story about Sarah
- As a side effect of her contract, she cannot taste things anymore; everything she eats has the taste of ashes. This is also why she couldn't simply enjoy life.
- She is around 16 or more like 17 (but is quiet small and thin for her age) while in this story Gil is more around 19. I just realized Gil could be arrested for molesting a minor… (I am a horrible person, what have I done?)
- Sarah doesn't like cats for she thinks they cope too well with loneliness and are quiet selfish.
But she isn't afraid of them like Gil because she isn't a sissy.
Gil: I'm not a sissy; I was traumatized in my childhood!
Author: yeah and I personally think it was Cheshire's fault (one of my theories on the manga)
- I think she could be on really good terms with Echo and Reim
- In my other story Confession (which I am not really proud of), there is an OC and she basically was Sarah (but finally they are really different). It's after writing this previous story and listening nonstop to the song "Sangeshitsu" by Reim and Gil's voice actors that I had the idea for this fic.
So this is really the end of this fic. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. I'm kind of proud I was able to finish this first chapter story of mine (even if it took me a lot of time) and I'm also kind of sad. I think I'll miss writing Sarah for she is my first OC…
I hope that maybe you'll read my other stories and appreciate them and just so you know, I'm working on a one-shot for Kuroshitsuji that is almost finished. It will be my first story on this fandom and it's SnakexOC.^^
