Chrno Crusade - Der Kampf geht weiter

Chapter 1

She stood in front of the tombstone in silence. Rosette Christopher. An important name for the young girl who was engraved in this stone, as well as her date of birth and also her date of death. "Hello Rosette." the girl murmured softly and smiled slightly. How much she missed her best friend, big sister and at the same time her role model. They weren't sisters, but Rosette had always been like a sister to her. She couldn't have chosen a better family.
"Azmaria ... good afternoon, Azu." when she suddenly heard a familiar voice, she turned and looked into Satella's face. "Satella! What are you doing here?" Azmaria was surprised. She hadn't heard from the red-haired woman in a long time. It was a miracle that she had survived the fight against her sister at all. Had Father Remington not arrived in time, it would probably have been too late for the Jewel Witch, too. "What am I doing here?" Satella asked, laughed lightly and placed a bouquet of white flowers in front of the tombstone. "We met for the first time four years ago today. I thought a little visit to our friend couldn't hurt." she said and gave Azmaria a friendly smile. She nodded slightly. "Mmm, you're right. It's really been so long ... since we met ..." Azmaria muttered, more to herself than it was addressed to Satella.
"Azu, Father Remington is here. He's with Sister Kate right now. He asked me to take you to the office." Satella then said calmly and the addressed looked interested at the older one. "Me? But ... why?" she asked surprised and didn't understand. "But ... Father Remington? What is he doing here? I saw him for the last time ..." she broke off the sentence. She had last seen him shortly before Rosette and Chrono disappeared. What did he want from her now? Immediately the expression on her face turned serious. "Do you think something happened to Joshua?" she asked immediately and couldn't wait to finally get to the former priest. Satella shrugged. "I don't know. He just mentioned that I should look for you and then bring you to his and Sister Kate's office." uttered the jewel witch and Azmaria nodded slightly. "Let's get there quickly. Not that he has to wait that long." she said, turning back to her best friend's grave and giving her a happy smile. See you later, Rosette, she thought, turned around again and went back with Satella to the monastery where she lived herself.

"Ah, Azmaria!" Remington looked pleased at the two women. "I have a request for you. I've already spoken to Sister Kate about it, but have a seat first!" the former priest received the young girl and motioned her to sit on the sofa. Azmaria nodded slightly and sat down well."Satella, you can stay too if you want." Remington offered and now sat down too. Sister Kate took a seat next to him. "Azmaria, Father Remington has a big request for you. But first, we are going to tell you something very important that you should know." said the head nurse gravely and poured tea into the cups that were waiting.
The girl nodded slightly. "Yes, Satella already mentioned it. What is there so important to discuss?" Azmaria asked, calm as ever. Not much had changed in the last 4 years either. She was still polite and not at all as quick-tempered as Rosette had been. It just wasn't her way. She was more of the quieter type and always would be, but she didn't mind. Because if she didn't like something, she said it too. Rosette had taught her that and she was infinitely grateful for it.
"Azmaria, listen carefully now. And you too, Satella." Remington spoke up when the red-haired woman sat down with them. Sister Kate cleared her throat once. "So you should know that Remington will be temporarily back in the convent. Sister Claire will take care of Joshua during this time. But that is not important at the moment. Remington is ..." Sister Kate was silent. How can you just explain it like that?
"What Sister Kate wants to say, I'm an angel, to be precise." silence spread across the room. "A ... an angel ...?" Azmaria asked incredulously, staring at Remington in surprise. This nodded slightly. "Yes ... And I'm here because I want you to take care of someone in the near future. I want you to teach her everything and show her that life has good sides too. I also want to that she understands that what the Magdalene Order does is not superfluous or even useless. " he explained and Azmaria was silent thoughtfully. She had listened carefully and was surprised. Not just about what kind of request he had of her. No. More about the fact that he was an angel. "But ... if you are an angel ... then what are you doing here?" she asked and didn't quite understand.
A slight sigh came from the blond. "My job is here. I turned my back on that one up there many years ago. My job is down here. Who else is supposed to take care of Joshua ...?" he uttered quietly and looked at Azmaria waiting. She returned his gaze for a moment before looking at her hands, which were folded together in her lap. "So ... As for yours, please. Who is it I should take care of ...?" she then asked and looked at the angel.
"She's an angel too. Still very young and inexperienced. She doesn't think much of people and even less of devils, which one cannot blame her. We all don't think much of devils." Remington was silent for a moment . "She's ... a little difficult and very stubborn.Stubborn and used to getting their way. Her name is Reva and she knows what her job is here. To learn and understand. She's already waiting to get to know you. "Remington was silent for a moment, waiting for Azmaria to comment on the task.
"I ... I'm supposed to take care of a ... angel?" she asked with a stutter, not knowing how to entrust her with such an important task. "But ... why me ...?" she asked and Satella put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Because you learned from the best." she said softly and looked at the blond man, who nodded slightly. "Exactly. You have learned from the best here. I just know that you are the right one for this job. But ... If you don't want to, you don't have to. There are enough other sisters here that I can go with can entrust this task. " he said then and Azmaria shook her head. "No. You have come to ask me. So I will please accept yours and do my best!" she said confidently and smiled slightly. "And as long as I haven't tried, I don't know if I can do it either!" she added and nodded slightly.
