Jerry; Hello? Is anyone here? *Oh right, they wouldn't understand me anyway*
Kongou; it seems to be an empty two floor warehouse.
Jerry; no, someone's definitely here. Let's move in.
Suddenly as Jerry said that, a knife passed by narrowly missing his face, it was so close he could see his reflection in it for just a moment.
Jerry, while looking in the direction the knife came from; *who's that? *
He was looking at someone in a white hanbok, the person wore a white Hahoetal, a traditional Korean mask that covered all but the lower part of the face which was the mouth and bellow it. The knife thrower then lunged toward him, and began to swing blows at him.
Jerry; woa, hey, hey, hey.
Kongou; Master! I will lend you aid.
Jerry to Kongou; stand down, I will handle this.
The unknown assassin then began swinging a short blade at Jerry so quickly it was like a blur, leaving no chance for Jerry to fight back but regardless, Jerry could still fight back.
Jerry, just before striking back; *wait a minute*
Jerry then swept down the attacker using his foot and pinned them to the ground, the attacker then kicked him to the wall where he stayed at a sitting position, the attacker then walked slowly toward him and looked at him, face to face, then squatted down to look at him. Jerry then looked at the attacker for a few seconds then he placed his hand at the side of the assassin's face (just behind the mask), he then pulled it close to his and kissed her on the mouth.
Kongou; *Surprised*
Attacker; How could you tell it was me?
Jerry; you should know at this point that I could recognise you in anything, no matter how much you try to suppress your nite.
You've been thinking about me a lot haven't you?
Jerry; every single day, Lisa.
Lisa then removed her mask and her hood as well, allowing her hair to flow down behind her head
What a coincidence, I thought as much.
A few days later;
Noah, sitting on a chair in a living room; Why do I like elves? It's simple, back in my world, I was saved by a tribe of dark elves as a child, I would soon return the favour, and that's when I first met her, Trish, she was 50 years old at the time, yet looked like an 8 year old, (elves age very slowly you see). she would go on and on about how she would want to be my bride, however it simply couldn't happen, though, I was never brave enough to tell her that, and even now…
*ring*ring
Noah; oh, my phone is ringing, it's from Jake.
Tom; alright, same time tomorrow then?
Noah; you got it. Hello?
Alex on the phone; MASTER!!! OH HOW I MISSED YOU SO VERRY MUCH!
Noah, with an irritated look on his face; Alex… how did you get here? *why couldn't it have been anyone else*
Alex; I just jumped in a few minutes after you did my glorious master.
Noah; *a few minutes? Strange and I've been in the fire for 4 years before coming out here, which means the gap between me and him must be 6 years. * Alex, answer me, when you entered the fire how long did it take…
Alex; anyway, I planned to make an entirely new song for when I saw you again master, shall I sing it?
Noah; no, no…
Alex; here I go!
Noah; *he's still the same, the same as after we saved the world. *
A few annoying minutes later…
Alex; I'm not sure, when I was in the fire I was going in and out of consciousness.
Noah; I see.
Alex; I can't apologize enough that I couldn't assist you more. I will accept any punishment no matter how grueling.
Noah; it's fine, you being here has helped me realize a few things so don't worry about it.
Tom, who just returned; is anything going on?
Noah; oh, it's nothing really, just an old friend.
Tom; I see. How long have you known him?
Noah; it's complicated.
Jerry; …
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Lisa; what do you mean? It's what I said isn't it?
Jerry; "I thought as much" really? Don't act like I haven't been on your mind 24/7.
Lisa (blushing); What! no you haven't!
Jerry; yes, I have.
Lisa (her face is beet red right now); Shut up you idiot!
Jerry; awwww, looks like someones too shy to even look at me? Could there be something wrong?
Lisa; mmmmmmmm, FINE! Yes, I have, are you happy now?
Jerry; there we go, that's my cute embarrassed angel right there.
Lisa (pouting); you're a jerk.
Jerry; anyway, who's that over there?
Jerry was referring to a person he was wearing a mask a few meters away.
Lisa to Jerry; oh, that's just Hei.
Lisa to Hei; you can introduce yourself they're not hostile.
Hei; fine, I'll trust you.
Lisa to Jerry; she's a little rough around the edges and doesn't trust people easily, her family was killed during the war and when we first met she attacked me.
Jerry; why though?
Lisa; nowadays Koreans don't take likely to foreigners, especially people from the EAA. Ever since the war, people have been starving, jobs were lost, the economy is out of whack and the government is scrambled also, she was starving.
Jerry; I see, so what are you doing here?
Lisa; oh yeah, after Italy I wanted to see what was going on for myself, it's worse that I thought.
Hei; let's show him.
Lisa; I thought you don't trust easily?
Hei; if this doesn't convince him, nothing can.
Jerry; right then, Kongou, come with us.
Then Lisa took Jerry and Kongou to a refuge where those suffering from the war where kept. It was filled with children, each one looking worse than the last, they looked as thin as dried corpses with grouchy looks on each of their faces.
Jerry; Damn, it's worse than I thought.
Hei; they're mostly children here, the adults are to busy trying to find rations for them, I used to be one of them before I became old enough to get food myself.
Jerry; I see.
Hei; follow me.
Jerry was then taken back to a hidden room the warehouse.
Hei; 4 years ago a group of superhuman terrorists called the speedsters have been wreaking havoc on businesses, towns and some neighbouring countries, they move at such high speeds they're practically invisible to the naked eye.
Lisa; they say they want revenge for one thing or another, it seems they don't want the same goal, they each have their own individual thing.
Jerry; I've heard of them, however what was the HAP's involvement?
Lisa; to be honest the HAP have said time and time again that they had no involvement, however when one of them was captured, before escaping they discovered traces of DNA modification, the same one used by the HAP, ever since then they've been sanctioned by several countries and on the verge of getting shut down and everyone getting arrested for the creation of these terrorists. And if that happens…
Jerry; …every organization that backed them could be seen as an accomplice, including Ga-den.
Lisa; it's painful to think, the whole clan might go down because of me, after all, I was the one who made the decision to work with them.
Jerry then sat down with Lisa; you did nothing wrong, you simply did what you thought was right, no one should blame you for that.
Hei to Lisa; I see why can't shut up about him now.
Jerry; what do you mean.
Lisa; Hei, not right now.
Hei; she talks about you none stop, like you're all there is.
Jerry; does she talk about me in her sleep as well?
Lisa; don't you dare answer that question Hei!
Hei; like you couldn't imagine.
Jerry; how very interesting.
Lisa, red with embarrassment; you're enjoying me like this aren't you.
Jerry; I am.
Lisa; why?
Jerry; because that's who you are, you're the purest and most wonderful person I've ever laid eyes on as well as the most innocent, I know because you have the purest nite I've ever felt.
There's none like it.
Lisa; if you think so then…
Hei; you two should just fuck already.
Lisa; What!
Jerry; actually that wouldn't be so bad.
Lisa to Jerry; What!
Hey don't say things like that.
Hei; whatever, I'm gona go check how things are going.
Then Hei left the room.
Lisa; you weren't serious earlier where you.
Jerry; doesn't matter, does it? We love each other and that that, we don't need to rush anything.
Lisa; yea.
Jerry then brought out a piece of candy and placed it in his mouth.
Jerry; want some?
Lisa; yeah.
They then kissed (tongue and all) meanwhile, As Jerry and Lisa shared the same candy, Hei stood above the warehouse, looking in the distance as she thought about her life.
Meanwhile…
?; Boss! He's awake!
Choki, tied to a chair; what do you want with me?
?; you'll find out soon enough.
