A/N:

First of all, I'd like to welcome you all to my fanfic "The Warrior Requiem".

This baby of mine is a collection of ficlets dedicated to our beloved Soma and just to let you know, a ficlet is at least 100 words long. But I'm not sure if I could follow that rule. Teehee. Sue me.

I've finally decided to post this now since I've already written up to prompt ten. I'm still editing some stuff though.

And with all of that, I hope you enjoy! :D

Reviews are very much loved.

Key 01 – Dignity

Soma Schicksal arrived by the entrance of the den, the usual frown grazing his features and is ready to file another mission with Hibari.

Just as Soma was about to go down, his eyes caught something red. The boy stopped in his place by the stairs, looking at the object that caught his attention.

It was a crimson flower, fake of course, pinned to a girl's hair. The young Schicksal looked her over, taking note of her Fenrir formal uniform. She was a Gods Eater whose face he didn't recognize. 'This must be the rookie.' he thought as he remembered Lindow and Sakuya throwing her praises here and there. She was reading a book and drinking tea, a plate of small cookie rations on her table. He couldn't help but notice the air of elegance the girl had around her. She took good care of her uniform - it was next to no wrinkles on it and there was only enough make-up to subtly enhance her features. Her hair was also kept in delicate care, her raven locks twisted to the side in a unique bun and the red flower was pinned into it so that the design would stay in place. There were a few wisps of hair loose at the base of her neck.

Can this kind of pampered brat grow accustomed to the destruction and monstrosity of this world?

To Soma's surprise, the rookie took a moment to look up from her book and lock eyes with him.

The only reason Estella looked at the boy was because she felt a stare on her. At first, she had tried to ignore it, but whoever it was it just kept watching, so she had decided to look back. Clearly, she had caught him off guard and her eyes drank in his form. He was a tanned boy, a hood over his head. He has platinum blonde locks and he looked like her age. His eyes, however, caught her attention the most. They were a lovely sapphire shade, a total opposite of her ruby ones. Estella smiled, raising her hand and waving.

Before she could say anything, however, the boy began to walk away, completely ignoring her. Estella put her hand down and blinked, unsure of what she did to get that kind of reaction. Instead, she mentally shrugged and went back to her book.

She had to find out if there would be a happy ending.
