[i][u]Glory Star Orphanage - Front Entrance[/u][/i] [img]https://i.imgur.com/eLqTRoQ.png[/img] Rayla: Yes, this is the place. [img]https://i.imgur.com/RxBh2B6.png[/img] Tiane: (Who's him?) Meanwhile, back inside, Reeta was running through the corridors. [img]https://i.imgur.com/IPtRfNG.png[/img] Reeta: How the gack did I oversleep? I better hurry! [img]https://i.imgur.com/JuIsSeV.png[/img] Amara: Here's your bag. [img]https://i.imgur.com/s85q6Pt.png[/img] Reeta: Wah! Almost forgot...Thanks Granny Amara... [i][u]Spring Zone - Streets[/u][/i] As she was leaving home, Andorina saw Nanase passing by, typing on her cell phone. [img]https://i.imgur.com/QaDbGZO.png[/img] Andorina: Oh..Morning. [img]https://i.imgur.com/zksOR5E.png[/img] Nanase: Morning. Hey, aren't you that girl who was asking for the get-well cards? [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xb3rFz8.png[/img] Andorina: You remembered me! Name's Andorina. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Vypur5E.png[/img] Nanase: I'm Nanase. I didn't know that you live here. [img]https://i.imgur.com/y0vK2uL.png[/img] Andorina: Mind if I accompany you? [img]https://i.imgur.com/joX9WrZ.png[/img] Nanase: Not at all. Come along. Then, they headed together towards school. [img]https://i.imgur.com/xQP3d2F.png[/img] Nanase: I've seen on TV that your friend was attacked again... [img]https://i.imgur.com/KA0HYSQ.png[/img] Andorina: Yeah...I was there. [img]https://i.imgur.com/RemwMbh.png[/img] Nanase: Really? Must've been really scary. [img]https://i.imgur.com/evQ5oMy.png[/img] Andorina: It really was...I don't want to go through that again... [img]https://i.imgur.com/KPF5rSQ.png[/img] Nanase: (Those were probably the same guys that attacked me a while ago...perverts or not, what they are doing is unforgivable...) After this, I'm guessing that she won't even want to look out of the window. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xb3rFz8.png[/img] Andorina: Not this time. She's actually coming back to school as she promised. [img]https://i.imgur.com/fdiOKqc.png[/img] Nanase: Really? Isn't it dangerous for her to be out right now? [img]https://i.imgur.com/y0vK2uL.png[/img] Andorina: (Well, some things happened...but maybe it's better if I don't tell her about Kaori's psychic powers.) There's someone that I trust that will make sure to protect her. [img]https://i.imgur.com/zksOR5E.png[/img] Nanase: I see... [img]https://i.imgur.com/2Q5C6Jj.png[/img] Miolina: OH THIS WORLD IS SO DAMN FINE!!! They suddenly hear Miolina approaching them, singing a song with enthusiasm. She was accompanied by Pairah. [img]https://i.imgur.com/HUvJOQG.png[/img] Pairah: Urgh...Do you want to kill my ears this early in the morning? [img]https://i.imgur.com/DlmklHY.png[/img] Miolina: C'mon, cheer up! Don't you like music? [img]https://i.imgur.com/2ko9Qu3.png[/img] Pairah: I do, but I don't just scream the lyrics like that if someone is nearby. [img]https://i.imgur.com/KKJqcU2.png[/img] Miolina: You can join me if you want. We'll ruin each others ears together. [img]https://i.imgur.com/yWBHaZM.png[/img] Nanase: ... [img]https://i.imgur.com/y66pdZ0.png[/img] Miolina: Hey! Good Morning Nanase. Fancy meeting you here. Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxW8TC2t9gQ]Conversation on death[/url] For Nanase, Miolina was that one classmate that always looked like she was up to something no good. She stared at Pairah, whose EXS aura felt more overwhelming and violent than Miolina's. [img]https://i.imgur.com/lmLvD4c.png[/img] Nanase: (Just what is she planning? I can't help but always feel unease around her...And on top of that, now she walks around with someone that makes my opinion of her even worse than it already was...) [img]https://i.imgur.com/AG30Esc.png[/img] Pairah: Huh? What are you looking at [url=https://youtu.be/bgrj3En40d0?t=1h7m44s]you shrew[/url]? [img]https://i.imgur.com/kKeyMGF.png[/img] Miolina: Now now Pairah...just because being shrew is what we girls do, doesn't mean that you should call her that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/dIcKJEZ.png[/img] Nanase: (You just called everyone one of us shrew...) [img]https://i.imgur.com/zOFuOGb.png[/img] Pairah: You should know I don't give a flying rat butt about being polite. Now let's get going...I know you're just going to stop me from punching her face. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xk4m1fT.png[/img] Nanase: (How she was even accepted within society?) [img]https://i.imgur.com/2hD4zH8.png[/img] Pairah: Yes...keep judging me with those eyes...See how it goes for you in the future. [img]https://i.imgur.com/UTvfm2x.png[/img] Nanase: Sorry... [img]https://i.imgur.com/HUvJOQG.png[/img] Pairah: I doesn't look like you're sorry... [img]https://i.imgur.com/xQP3d2F.png[/img] Nanase: What you want me to say? [img]https://i.imgur.com/AG30Esc.png[/img] Pairah: No need to say anything...just meet me at the grasslands...We'll settle our score there with our powers. [img]https://i.imgur.com/XqrpStj.png[/img] Nanase: I have no idea what you're implying... (Please don't make me fight again...I already don't like the fact that I have this power...) [img]https://i.imgur.com/5BXvqgP.png[/img] Pairah: Be glad that I'm giving you time to prepare and say your prayers. Pairah went on ahead. Miolina let out a weak laugh. [img]https://i.imgur.com/UTvfm2x.png[/img] Nanase: What is her deal anyway? [img]https://i.imgur.com/1jHcBPC.png[/img] Miolina: The path to reach the top is a harsh one. She's just doing her best in her own way. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xk4m1fT.png[/img] Nanase: What does that mean? [img]https://i.imgur.com/5sV5Sk2.png[/img] Miolina: Anyway, tell the teachers that I'll be skipping school today. Tell them I had a stroke. [img]https://i.imgur.com/evQ5oMy.png[/img] Andorina: But...Wouldn't that imply that you'll be out of school for a longer time? [img]https://i.imgur.com/2Q5C6Jj.png[/img] Miolina: Then just say whatever...BYE! Then, Miolina runs after Pairah. [img]https://i.imgur.com/dIcKJEZ.png[/img] Nanase: This girl is unbeliavable... [img]https://i.imgur.com/evQ5oMy.png[/img] Andorina: Will you accept her challenge? [img]https://i.imgur.com/lmLvD4c.png[/img] Nanase: No way...Why are you even asking this? Do you think I can win a fight with someone who cleary looks like she could snap me in two in a split second? It's clear she lives for street fighting... [img]https://i.imgur.com/KA0HYSQ.png[/img] Andorina: Yeah...she did look a tad strong... [img]https://i.imgur.com/MPU6Ioq.png[/img] Nanase: Now then...let's keep going... Suddenly, she feels a ball of paper flying close to her ear. She opens it and read its contents. [i]"By the way, you should accept her challenge...She's in a permanent bad mood as of late and she might literally set something on fire if you don't come to the grasslands after class. Don't worry, I trust that you can do this. Go get her Gallant Girl! ~With Love - Miolina Garda, your friendly everyday classmate! PS - Please don't call the police, Pairah might easily make toast of them, and we don't want that to happen."[/i] Nanase crumbles the piece of paper out of anger and throws it at the street. [img]https://i.imgur.com/6XmrusB.png[/img] Nanase: SERIOUSLY? WHY!!!! [img]https://i.imgur.com/KA0HYSQ.png[/img] Andorina: We should tell the Holy Order or the Guild about this... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xk4m1fT.png[/img] Nanase: Yeah...I'll do that after class... (No...I better accept the challenge...not because of that hotheaded woman...But something has been bothering me about Miolina. Something I really need to ask her...) [i][u]World Crossers Guild - Prison Area[/u][/i] Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdMXo1i90qs]Bottomless Pit[/url] Since Kaori's Mother was taken to the guild, Jerry was assigned to watch over Fleeting Memories School, which allowed Kail and Rosa to return to the Guild's building for a while. Veria was sleeping soundly until she suddenly fell from bed. [img]https://i.imgur.com/g4w8c4q.png[/img] Veria: Owch...There goes my beauty sleep... She noticed that she was behind bars. She tried to break free with her powers, but the cell didn't suffer any damage. [img]https://i.imgur.com/fDF3KSi.png[/img] ???: It's no use...These were tailor made for people like you. You should thank Mana and Jerald for that. Veria saw two people in front of her. One was a tall man in a labcoat, while the other was a girl whose hair covered her eyes. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mXhfFM5.png[/img] Veria: Hm? Who are you? [img]https://i.imgur.com/013t9po.png[/img] ???: I'm that mysterious person have people been speaking about using the pronoun game. [img]https://i.imgur.com/LOgQdRG.png[/img] Veria: What? [img]https://i.imgur.com/KLDCvao.png[/img] ???: You don't seem to know my face. [img]https://i.imgur.com/JN97XSm.png[/img] Veria: Should I? [img]https://i.imgur.com/WUzDTJp.png[/img] ???: You should...I mean, I betrayed that place after all, I thought one of your priorities was to go after my head. [img]https://i.imgur.com/RKH5haB.png[/img] Veria: Ah...Now I remember, you're... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Nmgz7rS.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/t2LoUQt.png[/img] Veria: You were with the guild after all... [img]https://i.imgur.com/jgf1MR4.png[/img] Professor Makis: Now that's more or like it. I was starting to worry that my former co-workers were getting sloppy. [img]https://i.imgur.com/GYL69yT.png[/img] Veria: You're not worried at all. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mLRq7qZ.png[/img] Makis: But I am...It's because I disagree with their current ideals that I'm taking it upon myself to help change them...Ever since Miss Tamari's dissapearence that I've noticed something wrong. I had to abandon my old home and take my daughter with me to hide in the guild. These past 2 years feel like an eternity to me. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mXhfFM5.png[/img] Veria: 2 years doesn't sound that long... [img]https://i.imgur.com/y5ezht9.png[/img] Makis: That may be true, but even though I can teach her myself, I want my dear daughter to go to school again...You see, she's hating every moment of this. [img]https://i.imgur.com/lp5WStA.png[/img] Girl: I never said I wanted to go back school... [img]https://i.imgur.com/B9Dk0A1.png[/img] Makis: Eh, But Larissa, I thought that you liked being outside. [img]https://i.imgur.com/qUPxiPm.png[/img] Larissa: That's different. School is a bore when you already teaches me a lot. [img]https://i.imgur.com/XmshVzG.png[/img] Makis: But don't you miss your friends? [img]https://i.imgur.com/ru7MVzJ.png[/img] Larissa: I didn't stood out that much to have them... [img]https://i.imgur.com/amHjVWW.png[/img] Makis: Don't say that...You need to have some initiative yourself... [img]https://i.imgur.com/7RNWegn.png[/img] Veria: (The traitor of my master and his daughter...good, I've got them right where I want them...) Suddenly, Veria summoned psychic walls outside the cell, then commanded them to converge on Makis and Larissa, but all of a sudden, they were surrounded by chains that made a barrier that shielded them from the attack. [img]https://i.imgur.com/RKH5haB.png[/img] Veria: What? [img]https://i.imgur.com/1cbeAL4.png[/img] Larissa: Maybe we should put the Magnetic Greed Handcuffs when interrogating her. [img]https://i.imgur.com/7VnZBKt.png[/img] Makis: Sadly...you're right...I wanted her to feel at home, but that was naive of my part. [img]https://i.imgur.com/JN97XSm.png[/img] Veria: Greed? As in Carrera "The Magnetic Avarice"? How did you get a hold of his Septima and apply it to a tool? [img]https://i.imgur.com/013t9po.png[/img] Makis: Oh, it's just something I've took from the late Dr. Kamizono. Don't tell his son I'm using his tech okay? And the Septima? Well, let's just say that I've gave a reason for the Sumeragi Group to be wary of your group. [img]https://i.imgur.com/RKH5haB.png[/img] Veria: !!! [img]https://i.imgur.com/KLDCvao.png[/img] Makis: That is all I have to say on the matter. Suddenly, Kail and Rosa entered the room. [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/17qzww.jpg[/img] Kail: Professor, are you okay? [img]https://i.imgur.com/mLRq7qZ.png[/img] Makis: As you can see, I'm fine. All thanks to Larissa. I should've have activate the energy barrier to cover the openings of the bars, but again, I wanted her to feel like she's at home. [img]https://i.imgur.com/brDmM7r.png[/img] Larissa: Hmph... [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/2jeo6tj.jpg[/img] Rosa: (I didn't knew she had powers...Why the Professor kept this a secret?) [img]https://i.imgur.com/oJGfRph.png[/img] Veria: AH! THE LOVE OF MY LIFE IS HERE! [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/2mji47.jpg[/img] Kail: Wait, what? [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/2ujqrnd.jpg[/img] Rosa: Seems like she fell for you Kail. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/23kajww.jpg[/img] Kail: I know she called me cutie before, but that sounds more like flirting than pure love. [img]https://i.imgur.com/HlAV6vK.png[/img] Veria: Don't dismiss my affection like that, I'm being serious... [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/n6875k.jpg[/img] Kail: Dismissing? You wanted to kidnap someone. No way in hell am I going to fall in love with someone like that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/zgGP4bq.png[/img] Veria: So I don't have a chance? [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/23kajww.jpg[/img] Kail: Even if you weren't evil, I already have someone else in my heart. [img]https://i.imgur.com/qUPxiPm.png[/img] Larissa: Ah, you mean that girl that barely pays attention to you and would rather spend time making weapons for the guild. Sure thing that you actually has a chance with her. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/23kajww.jpg[/img] Kail: You say that but I have something with me today that will surely make me earn a bunch of points with her. TA-DA!!! He shows the compact glaive that he confiscated from the soldier he defeated. [img]https://i.imgur.com/0EzRUoz.png[/img] Makis: Appealing to her tastes Huh? Well, that will certainly pick her interest. Not a bad plan. [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/2u59ij6.jpg[/img] Kail: See? This time for sure, she'll go on a date with yours truly. [img]https://i.imgur.com/64hDjEj.png[/img] Veria: In the off chance you fail, then maybe we can... [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/e5mujd.jpg[/img] Kail: What part of not having chance you didn't understand? [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/4i28f9.jpg[/img] Rosa: A-Anyway, maybe we should call the others to start the session. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/23kajww.jpg[/img] Kail: ...You're right...We're done here anyway... Without saying another word, Kail left the room together with Rosa. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ru7MVzJ.png[/img] Larissa: His idiocy baffles me everyday... [img]https://i.imgur.com/fDF3KSi.png[/img] Makis: Now now, it's rude to insult your friends. [img]https://i.imgur.com/qUPxiPm.png[/img] Larissa: I was just stating the truth. [img]https://i.imgur.com/VZxqdCG.png[/img] Veria: He is my kind of fool though...Sigh... [img]https://i.imgur.com/aiL07bs.png[/img] Makis: So it seems that the infatuation is genuine. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ma4quOQ.png[/img] Veria: How can you tell? Maybe I just want to get on his good side so that I can stab him in the back later. [img]https://i.imgur.com/013t9po.png[/img] Makis: For starters, you didn't attempt suicide yet like the others. [img]https://i.imgur.com/MzqkaSk.png[/img] Veria: Ah... [img]https://i.imgur.com/KLDCvao.png[/img] Makis: Maybe something is keeping you in this world...Well, I won't pry these kinds of details. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Q5ab1Cr.png[/img] Veria: (Something huh? That's a good question...why didn't I just off myself right now? I mean, I had the opportunity...they would most likely stop me anyway but still...) The Magnetic Greed Handcuffs were put on her to block off the psychic powers. Then, the Professor focused his attention on the other prisoner.
