“I think you might be misunderstanding boy. There’s no need for us to co-operate.” The Valkyrie pulled the scythe tighter against Ethan’s skin. “I’m pretty sure you’re just a projection of your consciousness, so killing you here shouldn’t harm your body. Or I could be wrong, Nótt is more familiar with this kind stuff. Do tell me what happens if we meet again boy, okay?” She made to behead Ethan, but something seemed to hold her back and she froze. “Lucky break boy. I’ll…” Her body started fizzling and soon she faded into the darkness. ---------------------Back to Sophia’s room…---------------------- “…han… Ethan!” The boy would find himself being shaken by Sophia. “Are you okay? You’ve been staring at me for about half a minute.” There was concern written all over her face, but it looks like she had no idea what had transpired inside her mind. |

As Ethan was about to be beheaded, his thoughts were surprisingly calm. Sure, he was going to die probably, which was bad. However, on the bright side, he no longer had to worry about how exactly he would die. No longer did he have to fear the Sun, the moon, snakes, things that looked like snakes, his own shadow, rustling leaves, or any of that. Of course it still was bad, but you take the good stuff when it comes. 'Connection Interrupted. Deep Dive TERMINATED' Before he could question what had happened, the scene before him started to fade. Murderous Valkyrie included. “Lucky break boy. I’ll…” With that ending note, Ethan felt his body literally being pulled backwards, with the scenery blurring into the darkness before him. Trying to turn around, he caught a glimpse of being pulled upwards into the abnormally large tree he saw before until he saw absolutely nothing at all. ---------------------Back to Sophia’s room…---------------------- “…han… Ethan! Are you okay? You’ve been staring at me for about half a minute.” Ethan's eyes swung around, taking in the very familiar and very comforting sight of Sophia's room. However, he could not hold back flinch as he caught sight of Sophia herself. In fact, he downright backpedaled into the wall when he saw her face. 'Calm down...calm down, it's not that...Valkyrie person. It's just Sophia, it's just Sophia.' Taking a deep breath, the boy managed to scrounge up his note pad and pen, writing a brief: [I'm okay] When he had calmed down completely, his mind began to think about what had just transpired. 'Ok...I am not sure what exactly had happened, but I should assume that it was real. That means...there is something inside Sophia's head. ...Should I call this to attention? Question her about it? I highly doubt having something immortal living in your head is a good thing. Especially one that bloodthirsty. Valkyrie mentioned having a relationship, but I cannot take that as fact of anything. Unfortunately, I don't know much, for all I know the instant I say a thing she'll come out and cut my body down right then and there. Come on, think Ethan, think, what else can I obtain from this incident. ...She wielded a scythe, something typical of a psychopomp. She could very well have a link to Sophia's own power. Thought that is purely circumstantial. What is significantly more important is her mentioning Nótt. Now this could be some other, but considering the relations to Norse Mythology, there is a very good chance that it could be referring to the personification of night of Norse Mythology. In fact, considering the relations of dreams, night, and of consciousness, it is almost certain. But I cannot be absolutely sure. Ugh, I can't be absolutely sure of anything. I can't even do anything. ...Yes, I can't do a thing. But maybe someone else can. For now, let's play this safe.' [Sophia...may I ask what happened to your hair and eye?] |

Sophia sighed with relief at the sight of Ethan’s response, though his follow up question was a bit of a sudden leap. “My hair and my eye? Ah you mean this.” The girl reached up to her hair and held the streak of silver hair. “It’s umm… a side-effect of using one of my powers too much.” It wasn’t the complete truth, but she didn’t want to worry Ethan with the possibility that there is a very violent entity possessing her. “It’ll fade away in time, I’ll just refrain from using my powers for a while.” There was a hint of agitation in her tone, as if she was trying to convince both Ethan and herself. “Until then… I‘ll just think of it as trying out a new look!” She smiled at the boy and struck a little pose. “What do you think?” |

Ethan had come face to face with something he was not very comfortable with. It was something he dreaded the most the instant he made his first friend. It plagued every scenario and potential plan. Heck, it plagued everyone and ruined everything (according to fiction): His friend was hiding something from him. Ethan's thoughts on the matter [Sophia, would you mind telling me more about your powers? There is a chance that I could help. Maybe about how you obtained them?] |

So he’s not buying it huh… Sophia sighed and dropped the pose. She should have expected it to be honest. Ethan is a good friend and seemed to be genuinely worried for her, so the least she could do is answer his questions. “There’s only one power that can do this to me.” The girl’s voice was barely above a whisper, and she traced the rune of the Valkyrie in the air, leaving a glowing red letter. “Valkyrie Evigilantem, a very powerful and dangerous spell.” She waved her hand through the glowing letter, causing it to disperse like a wisp of smoke. “Before coming to Hyakuji I discovered that I had an affinity for ‘prayer magic’, borrowing powers from gods. Valkyrie Evigilantem is one of two such spells I mastered back home. In short I offer my body to a war goddess in exchange for her prowess in combat. The possession is temporary of course, but like I said extensive use of this power can be… taxing.” |

[I see] '...She offers her body to a war goddess with a spell called Valkyrie Evigilantem...that raises so many flags I don't know where to start.' Ethan was again frustrated. So far, while the information she had revealed was quite concerning, she didn't seem to even notice the rather concerning detail of something living in her head. There were simply too many possibilities and variables to sort through, and one wrong guess could be quite damaging. What exactly was this Valkyrie? Could it be the war goddess Sophia mentioned? Or were the two unrelated? Was the Valkyrie actually a negative factor? Ethan had no idea, the possibilities were endless. He needed more information, but what else could he get? [So...there has been nothing else that could be bothering you? Anything at all?] |

“Well… umm… nothing else really.” Even if Sophia was trying to avoid the subject as much as possible, that was pretty much the truth. The only thing that had been worrying her was her confrontation with Ian, and frankly that was nearly as bad as the waterfall incident so she didn’t want to bring that up if at all possible. The gap in her memory didn’t help ease her troubles much, but like she had told him, she was fairly certain that this will go away once she rested for a bit. The girl gently placed a hand on Ethan’s shoulder and gave him what she hoped was a reassuring smile. “Thank you for your concern Ethan, but I assure you I’m perfectly fine. I just need to take it easy and stay away from danger for a while.” |

There wasn't enough. 'There's not enough. There's not enough. There's not enough. I don't know anything. I don't know anything. What to look for. Where to begin. Where I should even go. There's not enough. I have nothing. I have nothing. I have nothing. ...I need more. I need more. I need to know more. How do I get that? How can I get that? I don't know. I need more. Or else I will fail. I need more. Or else I won't be able to help. Or else I will be useless in this endeavor. I need more... but is that even possible?' Ethan could see that he was more or less at the bottom of the barrel in this end. He had gathered all he could from Sophia, and that wasn't much at all. He knew that there was something inside of her. He knew that it was probably related to her powers. He had suspicions of there being a link between the entity and something in Norse Mythology, but there were endless possibilities. For the rest, he had no confirmation at all. He did not know how dangerous this thing was. He did not know if it was something helpful or harmful. He did not know what it in fact was. He might as well had nothing. There was only one little thing he could try at this point. [Alright, thank you for your time Sophia, please rest up and have a good day] That was what he wrote and gave to her before he turned around. "Have a good day as well, Miss Valkyrie." That was what he said as he reached the door. |

Frankly Sophia was left a little dejected by Ethan’s sudden departure. She knew she hadn’t been exactly co-operative, but didn’t think it was that big of a deal. Guess she was wrong about that. The boy didn’t express himself often, but usually she was able to get an inkling of what was going on in his mind. This time however… she got nothing. He did seem to have a sense of resolve though, and she did get the little treat of hearing his voice at a regular volume. Come to think of it… He said “Have a good day as well, Miss Valkyrie.” Odd… he never called her that before, and he had already wished her well on his note, so why say it again? Sophia thought about it for a while, but something seemed to keep her from thinking about it too much and she eventually returned to her to her studies. |

'Tch, that was a fail,' Ethan thought as he walked down the hallway. 'I thought that there was a possibility of Miss Valkyrie popping out, thus confirming some questions regarding the possession. Unfortunately I have nothing. Like before.' Ethan collapsed against the wall, the magnitude of what happened finally overtaking his body. Trembling, twitching, and in general a panicked look was replacing everything about the boy from before. He was in trouble. He was in trouble and had no way to solve it. 'And I have too many unanswered questions. First of all, what exactly happened? I mean...I stared at Sophia and then I was in her head? What in the world? Was it really me? That's what that Valkyrie assumed. Hm, well, considering the circumstances, I can probably answer it quickly.' Ethan looked around the hallway and saw a student walking nearby. Getting up, Ethan steadily made his way towards the student and tapped her shoulder. "Hm? Oh, yes?" She said. [Excuse me] Ethan quickly flashed a note before staring directly at the girl's eyes. m After what seemed like several minutes of very awkward staring, a voice echoed in the boy's head. '...Failure to establish connection. Unable to Dive.' Seeing that he had spent a good amount of time staring and having no strange events occur, the boy turned and walked away, leaving behind a blushing girl. 'Ok, that did not work, but it seems like this is definitely something from me... but I should investigate this later.' Ethan walked into his room, locked the door, and then buried himself in his beddings. As of right now, the boy had no actual clues. All he had were hints and possible red herrings mixed up with them. Right now, he needed information, and there were only so many places he could find that. 'The first step is research, always research. I believe I can spend a significant more time with Sophia and I can possibly gain something from that, though Miss Valkyrie does not look like one to slip anything by. The library should hold some related matters. I probably know most of it, but anything extra is welcome. However, I highly doubt that it will have everything I need. So...after that...I would need...an outside opinion.' Ethan had a feeling that he was not going to like the upcoming events. |
