53 Missy

"Wake up." A soft, melodious voices whispers on Hector's ear. "1 more year…" Hector groans furrowing his brows. "Please wake up! We're going to arrive in 5 minutes!" Theresa said shaking his body, "Alright, alright, I'm up!" Hector groans opening his eyes and rubs them, to make his eyes stays opens.

"Good, I'll be in the food cart if you need me!" Theresa smiles before heading to the food cart that is one cart away from the cart Hector in.

Hector yawns and stretches his arms out, he grab Arkus and put him down beside him. He stares at the wet blanket. "Eew!" He said and knocks the blanket off of his body. He stands up and grab Arkus, putting him on his head. So Arkus won't be confused on where his master at.

He goes to the food cart to eat some bread, and drink water, as he sees all of his teammates in the food cart. "Yo! Come grab some food before getting off of the train!" Ashley said cheerfully, persuading him to grab as many food with her. "Don't be silly." Zeolite said hitting her head, "Oof!"

"I'm good, just need water." Hector said before drinking the cup of water on his hand.

"We have arrive at Gijutsu, please for those who have their destination here, get off of the train. We will wait for 5 minutes." The announcer informs the passengers.

"That's our stop, let's go." Zeolite said standing up from his seat and walk towards the exit, as Ashley followed him. "Let's go you two." Theresa said to the kids, as they nods and went after her, as Hector followed behind them.

When Hector got outside, he was surprised by how Gijutsu looks like, "Incredible!" He said in awe, as his eyes wanders around. Gijutsu has many tall building, advance technology that the other city doesn't have, example, there is telephone box, cars, and more things that is more noticeable in the night.

Zeolite cut his states of awe at the city, "Your mouth opens, close it or there's something going in your mouth." Hector snaps from his state of awe and close his mouth. "Let's go." Zeolite said walking away, "Wait! Did we know the exact position Dr. Nicholas at?" Theresa asks stopping him. Zeolite turns around, "Good question. We don't." He said making his teammates face palmed.

"Then…What should we do?" Ashley asks trying to figure out, "Asks around?" Theresa suggested. "That sounds good. But I'm worried about Celine…This city is so big!" Ashley said throwing both of her arms out, telling them how big the city is.

"I can take care of that." Theresa said grabbing Celine's hand. "Then…I'll go with Zeolite!" Ashley grins scooting closer to him as he holds her head so she doesn't get close to him. "Why should I go with you?" Zeolite asks irritated. "Just because!" Ashley grins, "Tch, fine." Zeolite sighs giving up. "Yeay!" Ashley cheered.

"So…Who with who?" Hector asks, trying to clear his fogged mind. "Ashley with me, Theresa with Celine, then, you with Aiden." Zeolite explains. "Aiden? Who was it again?" Hector asks looking around. "He's right beside Theresa." Zeolite said pointing to where he was. "He's not beside me." Theresa said looking at her side. "What?" Zeolite asks looking around. "He's not here." Zeolite said a little surprised.

"Weird, he was with us when we got off." Ashley said remembering he was standing in between of Theresa and her. "Yeah, I remember he was with me." Theresa said agreeing with her. "Damn, he disappears." Hector said.

"Well, might as well find for him while we asks around the citizens. Let's get moving." Zeolite said before walking to East. "See you." Theresa waves at Hector and head to West. "Yeah." Hector said as he walk to North.

Hector walks with his hands behind his head, as Arkus wake up along the way. "Where's the other?" He asks looking around sleepily. "We split up to find Dr. Nicholas." Hector replies to his questions, "oh, also, good morning." He said greeting him.

Along his way he bumps to a brown haired girl, "Oops, sorry." Hector apologies, and walk away, "Stop! You can't just apologies like that!" The girl said suddenly, Hector turns his head at her, "Hah?" He asks with full confusion.

"Apologies more politely now!" The girl demands, as tick mark appears on Hector's head. "I'm sorry Missy." Hector said in a mocking tone, "You called me what?!" The girl yelled. "Missy. So what?" Hector asks scowling. "Ugh! You're such a pain!" The girl protest. "Oh yes I am, a pain in the butt." Hector said mocking her more. "Shut your mouth!" The girl said at his annoying manners.

"Bah, I'm going. Hope we didn't see each other again, Missy." Hector said rolling his eyes and turns around to leave. "I have a name you know!" The girl yelled, "And what would you want me to call you, huh?" Hector asks turning around once again.

"Chiharu Akira. What's yours? It isn't fair if you know my name and I don't." Chiharu said staring at him, Hector releases a sigh, and introduce himself. "Hector Shirogane. Nice to meet you, Chiharu." As soon as he said his last name, Chiharu eyes widened in surprised. "Shirogane?!" She yelled.

Ashley and Zeolite keeps walking around while asking around about Dr. Nicholas, and surprisingly, none of them know where Nicholas location is. They just know for who he is.

"I can't believe none of them know where he's at!" Ashley groans slumping onto the bench. "Then…his workplace must be hidden or something. We just need to asks someone that knows more than the citizens." Zeolite said sitting beside her. "Yeah, I guess…like the police?" Ashley asks turning her head at him, "Good guess. Let's find some police."

"Damn, it's like a maze here!" Theresa said tired from all the asking she do to the citizens and didn't find any answer. "I'm tired…" Celine mutters. "Hang on. Let's sit there." Theresa said grabbing her hand and lead her to the bench. As the two sits down, exhausted is all the two feels.
