55 The not compatible but a perfect duo, seriously?

"What are you doing up there?!" A man with blonde hair yelled at Ashley, Ashley stays quiet and stares at his jacket, noticing a familiar pin. "Azure Sky?" She muttered squinting her eyes. "Ash, you better go down now…" Zeolite said looking up at her, then looks at the two member of Azure Sky. "Bah, I didn't want a guild members here, I'm searching for the goddamn police." Ashley scoffs crossing her arms.

"Hey! Where's your respect?! We're Azure Sky's members!" The blonde one said angrily, "Zeolite, let's go. These guys are no good," Ashley said ignoring them and walks away the opposites of them as Zeolite followed her.

"You piece of sh*t! Come back here!" The blondie said angrily, as his friend stops him from making any unnecessary fight, "Calm down Roy! Don't you realize who they are?" The girl who holds him back said trying to calm him down. "I don't care who they are! They have disrespected us!" The man now known as Roy said trying to break free from her grips.

"You don't understand! They are the not compatible but a perfect duo, Zeolite and Ashley!" The girl said hoping he stops struggling, when Roy heard who they are from her, he stops completely. "Fine, let's go back." He said as the girl let him free, he turns around and shoves his hands inside his pocket, he walks away while grumble angrily, the girl then follows him shortly.

"Risk of getting blind? That's pretty rare…" Nicholas mumbles rubbing his mask while thinking. He raises his head to look at Hector, "Can I meet her in person? I would like to asks what caused her to have risk like that." He said, "Yes! You can meet her! I just need to find them in this big city…" Hector tones change from enthusiast to apathetic.

Until someone knocks the door. Nicholas turn his head at the door, and signaled Chiharu to do something, Chiharu nods and went off somewhere. Arkus and Hector looks at each other confused, wondering what they means.

Arkus jumped off Hector's lap and rushed to near the door, sniffing the scents of the person outside, he widened his eyes in excitement, as he wagged his tails cheerfully, "Get out of the way!" Nicholas said to Arkus, "What for?" Arkus asked as he tilted his head, an explosion interrupted his thoughts, Arkus jumped in surprised and runs at Hector, shivering vigorously.

"Are they still there?" Nicholas asks Chiharu, "They disappears!" Chiharu replies to her father from the 2nd floor. "Disappears?" Nicholas ask himself, then suddenly someone kicks the door opens.

"What a rude thing to do." A familiar voices spokes, as smokes from the explosion comes in, blocking their face. "Who are you? And how can you escape that?!" Nicholas asks shocked, "Oh, so you're the one dropping that massive bomb?" Fire crackled from their hands, as Hector immediately realizes who they are.

"Theresa!!" He said happily, as he put Arkus on his head before running to Theresa, he latched himself at her, clinging to her. "H-Hector?!" She yelped surprised, "You're here!" Hector grins at her, before getting off of her and stands in front of her. "Nothing happened to you right?!" Arkus jumped at her and cried, worried as heck after that explosions happened. "I'm okay! No harm was done! But that was quite a surprised!" Theresa giggles patting his head to calm him down.

"Oi, get off of her you dumb fox." Hector said holding him by the back of his neck, grabbing him away from Theresa. "Why don't you dumb f*ck drop me down?" Arkus counter, because of Arkus triggers word, the two got into a fight, Theresa stares at them for a while and face palmed, until she realizes she left Celine outside.

She then quickly goes outside to fetch Celine, while Nicholas still can't believe what he saw, he's still can't believe how a girl can avoid his bomb, even those C.P.D.'s soldiers can't avoid it.

"Close your mouth idiot!" Chiharu said smacking his head, "Ow…sorry." Nicholas apologies, while smiling sheepishly behind his mask. "Don't be…dummy." She said, and muttered the last part, "What?" Nicholas asked leaning his face close to his daughter. "N-Nothing important!" Chiharu yelled embarrassed, as she looks away from him, crossing her arms, while Nicholas looks at her confusedly, scratching his head.

He wears an armor plate, a hood is connected to the armor plate, a big sword in his back, he wears gloves that ends on his forearms, brown pants, and a pair of black shoes.

Kyle is a man about Ludwig ages, he has brown hair in quaff hairstyle, dark blue eyes. He wears sleeveless black turtleneck, scarf around his neck, black pants, and a high boots.

Rose is a young girl, she has platinum white hair, tied in a ponytail, gray eyes. She wears white robe, black shirt inside the rob, the shirt has her guild logo, a bear. A Magic book hang around her right waist, and high boots that ends on her knees.

"These troublemakers is here?" Ludwig asks massaging his forehead, "I overheard them searching for Dr. Nicholas." Kyle said trying to remember correctly what did they asks for, "The famous but mysterious Doctor?" Rose asks looking at him, "Yeah, that one." Kyle answered. "Dr. Nicholas? Chiharu's father?" Ludwig asked himself, "Chiharu? Who's Chiharu?" Kyle asks confused, "Guildmates." Ludwig replies.

"You're Nicholas? I'm so sorry for being rude to you! It just that, I mean, a bomb dropping from the sky is a pretty weird moment. Again, I'm sorry!" Theresa bowed down after knowing the man in front of her is Nicholas. "It's okay, in fact, I'm pretty interested on how you can avoid that bomb. Did you have some sort of teleportation?!" Nicholas said leaning close to her, as Theresa shift uncomfortably, "C-Can you move a bit? You're a bit too close…" Theresa smiles nervously trying to not be rude to him again.

"Oh, right, my bad." Nicholas said pulling his head back, and noticed Celine standing near Hector, "Is that the person you mentioned?" He asked Hector, as hector nods. Nicholas approach her, and asks her a few questions. "How? When? And Why?" He asked simply mixing all his questions.

"I uses too much Mana, it was 2 days ago, and it was for the sake of my teammates." Celine said replying to his questions. "Excellent. Alright, follow me." Nicholas walks away as Celine follows him.

"You can follow me without looking?" Nicholas asks his interest rising, "Only for short range, I can't do it if it's a long range." Celine replies raising her head up at him. "I see, I see. Let's not waste more times…" Nicholas said and walks to his laboratory.

"Can we follow him?" Hector asks Chiharu, "Only proceed when he says so." Chiharu replies and sits on the couch, "Psh, lame." Hector scowls, since he wants to see how he works. "Be polite." Theresa said hitting his head lightly. "Mhm." Hector hums and sits in front of Chiharu, as Theresa sat beside him.

"Oh, looks like they already know where the doctor is." Zeolite said looking at his tracker, he places tracker on his teammates, in cases of emergency. "Let's go then! I'm curious by how that Nicholas person looks like!" Ashley said walking away, as Zeolite grab her jacket, stopping her from moving any farther.

"Not that way. This way." Zeolite said letting go off her jacket, and walks to the opposite way Ashley goes, as Ashley follows him.

"Oh yeah…I remember about the things I wanted to talk to you." Chiharu said, "What? Oh, the Pillars thingies?" Hector asks leaning on the couch. "Yeah. You don't mind right?" Chiharu asks looking at Theresa. "No, not at all." Theresa smiles telling her that she's okay with whatever topic.

"Good, let me start." Chiharu said and closes her eyes for a moment.

"Is this the house?" Ashley asks looking at the old small house. "I don't know, I don't really sure myself. But it's telling me that they are inside this house." Zeolite said while looking at his tracker, with their needle pointing to the house. "It's broken, maybe?" Ashley shrugs, "Impossible. I've just created this two weeks ago. "Well, that's unfortunate." Ashley said shrugging once again. "Can you stop shrugging?" Zeolite asks looking back at her, Ashley replies with a shrug, Zeolite sighs in defeat and looks forward again.

Zeolite stares at the old door, as his right hand slowly grab the doorknob, he opens it slowly, something greets him, and it's a fist, Zeolite reaction is too slow to avoid it, as it nearly hits his head, until he feels someone push him out of the way. Ashley is in a good heart right now. Well, if Ashley choose to stay still in her place and laughs at him, he would knocked off of the cliffs in front of the house, but she choose to help him. It's kind for her to do that.

"Seems like you're okay." Ashley grins looking down at him.
