KillamriX08"Finally, he's gone." Sefia said. She was sitting opposite Alto at the other end of the table, sipping more coffee. Sal and Con had come back, and Sal was eating dinner beside Alto while Con helped Theo with some chores.
"Why do you hate him so much?" Sal asked, looking up from her meal.
"I don't mind him when he's serious, Sefia replied, "But when he's not serious he's just really annoying." She turned towards Alto and sighed. "That throne is ridiculous." she said.
Alto looked up from his cookies and cream. "Ridiculous how?" He asked.
"What kind of person has a throne in their dining room?" She said.
"Me." He replied. Sefia returned to staring at him, as he ate another spoon of cookies and cream. He suddenly realised something, grudgingly put his tub down, and sighed. "Oh right, I needed to tell you about all the stuff I was talking about." Sefia put her coffee down with a sour expression on her face.
"So you finally realised, huh?" Sal said. "Sefia hates being left in the dark, you know." She finished off the last bite of her dinner, before picking up her plate and leaving for the kitchen.
He hadn't known that, he probably should've known that. I'll keep that in mind, I suppose. Alto thought.
"Well, first up is Tree Baby Jesus." Alto said, leaning back on his throne. "Someone in the underground movement is giving birth in two weeks, to an SS-class meta." He paused slightly before continuing. "Apparently it'll be able to turn into a tree which drops fruit which gives normal people meta powers and can heal people instantly."
"Huh." Sefia said, still mildly confused. "Alright, well, I guess I see why they're attacking now."
"Yeah..." Alto said, "I don't really know how the found out, or how they knew what its power was going to be, but whatever. Doesn't affect us really." He looked down to see his ice-cream was melting slightly. He probably needed to finish that. "Next thing would probably be my secret agenda..." He said, picking up his spoon.
"If it's dangerous, I'm coming with you." Sefia said suddenly. Alto looked up in surprise. "It's not because I'm worried about you or anything," She said quickly, "I just want to test my sword skills."
"Oh," Alto said, "Alright then?"
She sounds like a Tsundere or something. He thought.
He cleared his throat a little, before speaking again. "Well, I only need to punch someone so it should be fine(@letter Bee)." Sefia raised an eyebrow at that. "Though, it is the Underground Movement's commander. I suppose that is a little dangerous, but whatever. You should probably come along." Sefia nodded in agreement.
"Anyhow," He said as he scraped the bottom of his ice-cream, "The last thing I should probably cover is Ruby."
"Is it bad that I don't know who she is?" Sefia asked.
"Well, not really." He put the finished tub on the dining table. "She sort of used to be wanted, I suppose, because she revealed some stuff the government didn't want her to reveal and blew up an FBI bulding and then she disappeared."
"You talk like you know her pretty well." Sefia piped up.
"Actually, I've only ever met her three times." Alto said, "The first time I tried to bail her out, the second time a week later I was hunting her down, and the third time was this afternoon, when she asked me to bail her out."
"...Huh." Sefia said. She was still confused, and by the looks of things, she looked like she knew it.
"She's done a lot." He said. "Maybe if we'd met under different circumstances, we could've been great friends."
"Still, I don't see why you'd go this far to help her." She said, "Is she even paying you or anything?"
"No she isn't, but you know I only usually take pocket change, right?" He said, "I just feel like doing it. That's all." Sefia drained her coffee and put her mug down with a sigh.
"...Yeah, alright." She got up and started walking towards the kitchen, mug in hand.
"Hey, are you staying over tonight?" He called. She seemed to contemplate the question for a second.
"Yeah, I guess."
"You remember where your room is, right?" He asked.
"Yeah, yeah. I know where it is." She said.
"Why do you hate him so much?" Sal asked, looking up from her meal.
