The Saddest Day

Marion was shaken by Lauriel's presence in the helicopter and by Alaric who was walking briskly toward her. Alaric must have accelerated his pace due to the sudden appearance of the helicopter, thinking that she was in danger.

"Alaric ... don't come here!" Marion screamed on top of her lungs.

She tried to make Lauriel leave by waving her hand at him, but the helicopter grew closer instead, and now even circling above her. The dimness of the night which was only illuminated by the moonlight rendered Lauriel unable to read Marion's lips. Due to this, he failed to grasp that she was trying to drive them away.

"Someone's following Marion!" Petra, who was controlling the helicopter cried in panic. "What should we do now, Lauriel?"

"At the moment, our priority is Marion," Lauriel replied firmly. "Once  that person did anything to endanger her, don't hesitate to shoot him down!"
