Chapter 61

"I haven't lost my mind, to some it would be speaking weeb, John would call it the language of culture." Lesh says amused by Alices reaction,

"You're wearing a blue and white dress with black trim that well looks amazing and suits you isn't exactly something practical for an apocalypse." The girl couldn't help but comment well also amused but was difficult to tell though due to her sleepy appearance.

"Hey! Theres nothing wrong with my outfit, far better than that stuff your wearing." Alice says with a pout, honestly feeling a bit jealous how quick she seemed to mesh with Lesh compared to her start with him.

"Okay, no fighting you 2, Alice keep calm, you still have seniority and the most trust since you have been around the longest and most trusted, miss, what's your name?" Lesh says before asking, realizing he hasn't actually bothered to ask any of the new people their names, something he would need to change at some point.

"My name? You really want to know? Yay, that means I've gone from random unimportant unknown background character to short ark character, oooh if im lucky I might even become a companion." Her monotone voice seemed to carry faint hints of excitement as she smiled slightly.

"My names Ashely, but call me Ash for short, I'm going to be a true master of all Pokémon." She says pointing up to the sky getting a sigh form Lesh and almost having Alice pound her head against a wall.

"Well good luck with that, truly you and John would get on light a fire and a dry wood house." Lesh couldn't help but mumble at the end, not realizing Alice could clearly hear him and pouted angrily, wishing she could get rid of Ashely but knowing that was currently Impossible.

"It seems were 2 short though unless I've lost more of my marbles." He couldn't help but say as there where 2 women short form the ones Alice had described, admittedly they had almost slipped his mind if not for remembering the way they were pushed onto him.

"The 2 girls the weird guy pushed onto us? there missing, I'm not too sure where they went either but atleast its 2 less worries for us." Alice says without a care getting a from him as he gets up and leaves.

After leaving the house Ash and Alice following behind, Lesh began to give out jobs, simple ones to begin with but still important. He began by assigning the city builder to plan things out for a underground camp to start with, having the earth mage work with Elena to create reinforce and create the vast underground space for the camp. The earth mage hollowing it out slowly well Elena reinforced it with various roots form the plants. As for the others the men were assigned to begin repairs on the house, any materials needed would be collected from around them with the gatherer guiding them to it with the old man and Ray providing security.

The girls weren't left out though, Lesh had Alice and Ash go with him as he approached them, at first the other women seemed scared but Ash, possibly due to the unity of being locked away with them helped calm them and showed they would be okay.

The tri-crafter, who he learnt was called May had short brown hair with a green stripe in it, green eyes and a soft round face and was the first one he helped sort, he explained how there wasn't any tailoring facilities or the like yet but he would try to figure something out, in the mean time she could help Elena with the greenhouse and be the cook for everyone once a proper kitchen was made which seemed to bring some life back into her.

Next after feeling slightly more comfortable around Lesh from seeing how he spoke with may was the Techno-engineer Lacy. Just like he had done with May he informed her that there wasn't much she could currently do but once they had a decent generator or other such electrical and mechanical devices around it would be her time to shine, in the mean time though he hoped she could help around where she could, either May, or Ash or Alice with whatever it was they need help with at the time and to not be idle.

What he received back from her was a dull look and a nod of acknowledgment but all things considered was enough for now.

The final girl was called Saya, she had Dark red almost black hair, black eyes and a cold look to her, gripped tightly in her hands was a weird looking sword with an almost unnoticeable purple glow. Before Lesh could even speak she did first.

"My name is Saya, and before you try to 'help' me find a place like the others don't bother, I know your not like the men who harmed and broke us, I also know you aren't the owner of that body, I can fully see your true monstrous and bony form. I will pull my weight, I will work to help keep the place safe and hunt for meat, but I want something in return, it's the only reason I came here, since you took what I wanted." Saya says, her tone as cold as her looks.

"Oh? Now that is rather interesting, and I don't scare you girly? Well, you should be careful of such confidence, some don't like being spied on. But back on the current topic, what is it that I apparently have that you want?" He asked her in a very amused tone.

"Beware when you look into the Abyss, because just as you look into it, it looks into you. That's the words of warning I got when choosing my class, the beings around me told me about you and let me see the real you. What you have that I want is the bastard that hurt me and brought us to that hell, that caused us so much hurt." She says, her tone practically spitting her words with venom as she narrows her eyes.
