An unlikely team, Snake and Hamster, put their heads together to escape the pet store on the only day of the year there is no staff; Christmas.

A one-shot for a writing prompt - target length 1k words.

         
        A couple more minutes of silence pass by until we see a police car drive its way past our two beat up cars and towards the bench where Andrew and I are awkwardly sitting.

  The two officers get out of their car and make their way towards the two of us, pulling a pen and a notepad out of their pockets. 

"Hello Mr and Ms . . .," one of the officers says before stopping mid-sentence at the sight of Andrew. 
"Hello, Officer Hererra and Officer Perez. Surprising evening isn't it?" Andrew says casually with a smirk.

     I furrow my eyebrows in confusion and look between the officers and Andrew.

 Excuse me. What?
"Indeed . . . this is quite the surprise Chief," Officer Perez says while fixing his police hat and clearing his throat. 

  Wait wait wait, what. Did this officer guy just call Andrew 'Chief'? Hah. What a surprise. I swear he looks like . . . a businessman. I don't know! Just his looks, the way he dresses and his handsome figure give off a rich look! Lord, when did I become so judgemental?

    Officer Hererra turns to me while Officer Perez questions Andrew about the situation, more like chatting actually.

"Hello Ms. . . .," Hererra says, stopping to look at me.

"It's Ms. Dawn. Rozelle Dawn," I say with a small smile.

A few seconds pass by while the officer writes things down on his notepad, glancing back and forth between his notepad and both of my eyes. 
Ugh, I should be used to this by now. They probably think I'm a freak or whatnot, whatever, I have no say to think about what they're thinking.
I guess I just . . . can't help but feel one bit ashamed.
"Ok, uh . . . I'm just going to ask you a few questions about your information, like your date of birth, age, occupation, et cetera," the officer says with a questionable hesitation, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Ok sure," I mumble while glancing at Andrew while he talks to officer Perez.

        _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

    After all the questioning, Andrew offers to call a tow truck to take both of our cars to the repair shop. 
    "Thanks Andrew," I mumble, avoiding any eye contact with him.
"No problem Rose," 

I notice Andrew looking at his watch while looking up at the night sky.
" . . . it's almost midnight, I have to check on my hamster. She's probably going to be so mad at me once I get home," He sighs with a concerned look on his face.
Oh my gosh . . . it's almost midnight! My sleeping schedule is going to be messed up dammit, and I have so much f****** work to do! 

Wait . . . did he just say he has a hamster? 
"Oh, I didn't think you were the kind of person that would own a pet . . . ," I say while looking out into the road.  
I mean . . . it's true, he doesn't look like the type that would own a pet . . . especially a hamster. If he would own a pet, I would think that it would be a big dog like a  Great Dane or a K9. 
    Of course, there is no such thing as a 'type' of a person, but I just can't get that thought out of my head . . . a hamster and a tall muscular handsome man that most likely has a 6 pack . . . omg, maybe even an 8 pack! I blush at the thought of an 8 pack on Andrew. Damn, What the heck is wrong with me!
   Damn . . . now that I think of it, that hamster must be lucky. 

"Yep. Got a little Hamster named Princess Leia. How about you? Do you have any pets? Andrew says breaking me off from my ridiculous thoughts.
"Yes I do, I have a 5 week old pomsky, his name is Chewie. He's so feisty and energetic, makes me happy whenever I see him up early just to wake me up," I say as Andrew nods. 
"Sounds really sweet. Also, do you mind if  I drop you off?" He blurted out. 
Did he just-. . .
  My body froze at his question. What kind of guy asks a lady that he just met in a car crash to drop her off.
   I mean, I'm pretty sure he doesn't have bad intentions . . . but you can never be too sure. There are police officers and plus Andrew is the chief. 

    I debate whether I should let this handsome guy drop me off or not. Well, I do think that his question was stupid, but of course,

 I can't help but say yes.


I'm just a normal 26 year old grown woman, who works as a popular designer. Everyone thinks I'm pretty until they've seen my eyes. That's how it's been since I was a kid.
As a child growing up in London with noticable heterchromia, I was mostly casted out of friend groups, that is until I moved to the states at the age of 8. 

I found friends in highschool that were really loyal and kind, I even met a guy that I dated, but turns out I was just so naive. I couldent see that he was cheating on me. 

I learned my lesson though.
Although. . . .I dont know how it happened, but I met this guy, he was young, his eyes were bright blue. He was tall. He had a muscular build, he was gorgeous and so handsome, he was just breathtaking. His caramel colored hair slightly disheveled, making him even more hot.

"Are you okay miss?" He asked me, his voice full of worry as I nod in response.
His name is Andrew Hugh's, or Andy. . . that's what he told me. 
Later he offered to drop me off at my apartment. 
I accepted, he seemed like a nice guy.
He didn't give me that look of disgust when he looked into my eyes, although I saw a hint of fascination.
A nice guy...
A nice guy, a handsome guy, a hot guy, that turns out to live in the same apartment as me. . . Just 3 doors beside me.
"Thanks," I say, looking into his mesmerizing eyes, while walking towards my apartment room.
"No problem Rosie," He replies as I close the door. 
Okay, WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?
I sat on the couch, thinking about Andrew as I held my puppy.
Is this just a simple crush?
I hope so.
Ugh! This is so confusing, I havent had a boyfriend in 2 years! Am I really losing romantic relationship experience?
This is like some highschool lovedrunk bullsh*t!
I couldent put it as love..
but what if I am..
I couldent possibly fall in love with a this guy. . .that I crashed my car into.


An unexpected event causes a popular designer and the chief of police to run into each other more and more.
Both struggling with their ex's, each day they face personal misunderstandings from their past relationships, only making them realize that both of their ex's know each other, which leads the chief of police and the designer to work more and more together. Until they finally realize HOW much time they spend, with just the two of them.

After everything was ready, he finally collapsed into the reclining chair.

In the past, Zhang Zian always thought it was easy to run a pet shop. Now he finally realized that it was really difficult. However, this was his own choice, he had already sent a resignation letter to his company; it was too late to regret it.

But when he saw several energetic cubs full of beautiful fur innocently looking at him, asking for food, he felt that all of his pain had been rewarded.

"Galaxy, how about taking a bath?" he joked with his Lucky Cat, who had been observing for a long time.

The Lucky Cat shook its head desperately, indicating that this matter was not negotiable.

Zhang Zian also thought that the Lucky Cat didn’t need a bath at all, as his fur was even cleaner than those that had just received one. He really didn’t know how that could happen like this.

A little while later, the floral shop delivery man parked his electric tricycle in front of the shop and knocked on the glass door. He also tried to look inside through the glass holding the shed.

Galaxy had already carried its cotton pads and huddled into the corner. Zhang Zian bounced from the reclining chair at once and hurried to open the door. The cold morning air poured in with the opening of the door.

"Is this the flower basket your ordered?" the delivery man asked.

"Well, yes. Thanks a lot." Zhang Zian took out the money to pay him.

"Is this a pet shop?" the man asked while counting the money.

"Yes," Zhang Zian replied.

The man put the money in his pocket but didn’t leave. He looked inside and said, "How much is the puppy?"

"Is this the so-called business knocking on my door?" he thought.

Zhang Zian tried not to show his excitement and said, "My shop was just opened. There weren’t a lot of pets yet but we have a Samoyed, if you would like to take a look."

The man thought for a while and said, "Samoyed, I’ve heard of it before. How much is it?"

"Ah? So expensive? No! No! You are too deceptive! A puppy is much more expensive than a person!" The man hurried away with a brief wave.

Zhang Zian felt helpless and went back to the shop with a bitter smile. The price of ¥2500, which was almost the same as its cost, was not that expensive. He initially wanted to sell it for at least ¥3000. The pet had been immunized with six imported vaccines at Pet’s Home. Those imported vaccines were much more expensive than domestic ones. But he never had a chance to explain that, as the man had already escaped from him, as if he was running away from the Plague Gods. 

Pets were luxuries, not daily necessities. In other words, was it expensive to have a ¥2500 necklace? Was it expensive to have a ¥2500 diamond ring? Was it expensive to have a ¥2500 LV bag? 

"Not closing the deal today was okay, and it might have been a lucky thing for the Samoyed. If that man was barely willing to pay ¥2500 for it, once the Samoyed had a serious illness, the man would give it up, as the pet didn’t have medical insurance," Zhang Zian thought. 

When Zhang Zian thought of the word "lucky," he looked at the quiet and cute Lucky Cat with a smile.

When he had just laid down on the reclining chair, a girl with two braids peeked in. "Manager, are there any pets yet?" she said.

It was the little girl from the other day who had said her family couldn’t have a pet. She still had her schoolbag; it seemed that she had dropped by on her way to school.

"Yes, come in and take a look if you want," he said.

Zhang Zian was under great pressure, as he didn’t expect that the first customer would be a schoolgirl without any money. The girl gave a loud cheer and ran into the shop with her little schoolbag lightly trembling on her back.

"It’s okay to check the pets, but don’t be late for school, all right?" he reminded her.

"Yes!"

She stopped at the pet display area with her mouth half-open and full of excitement, looking at the Siamese cat, the British Shorthair, and the Samoyed. Then, her eyes finally fell on the little hamster.

Zhang Zian had just combed the hamster’s hair, which made it look very clean. Hamsters did not usually need to take baths, because they had very small figures. Bathing in the water could make them sick. If bathing was necessary, they had to be washed with special sand. As a matter of fact, the hamster’s activities area was limited to the cage, so keeping the cage clean would help keep the hamster clean, and no bath would be needed.

The hamster was a milky color, with chubby cheeks that were cute to poke at. It had three black lines on its head, going all the way down the back like the popular mohican hair style.

Half of the hamster’s body was buried in sawdust, and its two small round black eyes stared at the little girl.

"How small! How cute!" the little girl exclaimed and clapped her hands.

She looked left and right around the hamster cage made of transparent, acrylic plate circles. It looked like she wanted to go into the cage and play with the hamster.

The lights in the Amazing Fate Pet Shop were regional. Zhang Zian dimmed the light in the middle area to fit to the little hamster’s vision, it being a nocturnal animal, so that it could see the little girl.

"Anyway, there are no other guests right now, so it’s better to save power," he thought.

"Manager, what does it eat?" she asked, turning her head toward Zhang Zian.

"Well… It has a mixed diet, such as common fruits and vegetables; in addition, peanuts, melon seeds, yellow beans, and black beans are also okay," he answered.

"Oh! Can I bring something tomorrow to feed it?" The girl bit her lips nervously, begging. She was concerned that Zhang Zian wouldn’t agree.

"Sure, but don’t feed it too much. Just several peanuts are more than enough. The hamster is so small that it doesn’t eat a lot. If it eats too much, that will not be good for its health," Zhang Zian said.

"Thanks, Manager! I am going to school now, bye-bye!" 

She hurried out just like she had come in, with her two ponytails and backpack swinging up and down.

"Kids at her age should be dropped off and picked up at school by their parents. How could her parents let her go to school by herself?" Zhang Zian thought.

When the little girl had just stepped out, a slim figure entered the door.

"Was that girl your daughter?" Sun Xiaomeng asked.

Sun Xiaomeng’s first sentence after getting into the shop almost made Zhang Zian faint. The old wounds of last night were not healed, but new wounds were already being made today.

"Am I so old?" Zhang Zian touched his face, depressed.

Without the white coat, Sun Xiaomeng appeared to be a young, urban beauty. Zhang Zian barely recognized her.

"How do you have time to come today?" He rose up from the reclining chair.

"Well, is it a question? My pet clinic was just opened too. There are almost no customers, just like yours, so I stopped by." Sun Xiaomeng didn’t even greet him, walking directly towards the display case and playing with the cubs.

She had done all the cubs’ vaccinations, so they seemed very close to her, immediately trying to get to the side of the display case.

"No, no, you misunderstood that my shop was really just opened. The customers are on their way here!" Zhang Zian stressed.

"I'm no Little Huang or Little White. I'm not your regular household cat and dog! My name is Huangdu!"
The little hamster sighed deeply. "The disciples these days are getting worse with each generation. Forget it, it's not like you'll understand. Let me go now and I'll let this slide."
"Let it slide eh?" Chu Chen nodded. Before the hamster could have said anything, he pulled it out from the vines and held it by its round body. "Little Huang, you've stolen quite some spiritual herbs from me. How will you settle this?"
"How is that considered stealing!?" Hearing that, the little hamster got angry. "I rule over all lands and realms. How would I resort to such a lowly act?! I'm just eating it openly! Kid, do you know that I was framed by a rival back then? When I woke up, I was surrounded by a bunch of random people that placed thousands of restrictive spells on me and turned me into this stupid form! As long as I have enough spiritual herbs to break my restrictions, I will take you in as my true disciple and let you inherit all the secret techniques that I learned over the billions of years. What do you think?"
Chu Chen's mouth twitched.
"Secret techniques? You know a lot of them right? Then give me one example."
"I've been suppressed by thousands of restrictive spells. Those memories about the cultivation techniques were naturally sealed away. How can I tell you about them? As long as you let me go and let me eat all the spiritual herbs in this field, those secret techniques will be yours when my restrictions are lifted and memories restored! Come on, my good disciple, what are you waiting for? Kowtow and greet your master."
Chu Chen's brows twitched, struggling to have suppressed his urge to squeeze the little hamster to death. He took out a little box and placed it in front of the hamster.
"What's this?" The hamster curiously moved closer to the box and took a whiff. Its fat face no longer shook around. "Blood pact elixir! Don't feed me that thing! How can I, a ruler of the universe, be subdued by a human and be their pet! Take this away immediately!"
The hamster had been shouting as it waved its little paws wildly. Unfortunately, its paws had been too short, unable to have escaped from Chu Chen's grasp even after all that flailing.
"You actually know that this is the blood pact elixir. That's quite knowledgeable of you." Chu Chen eyed the hamster curiously, whose stomach coincidentally growled. "Look here. I'll give you two options. You can eat this blood pact elixir and be my pet. I'm sure Junior Sister Tong would love a talking hamster. Otherwise, if you refuse to take the elixir, I'll eat you. I've not had meat for quite some time—"
"Don't be like that!" Hearing that, the little hamster was scared witless. "I'm very fat. My body is oily and the texture is bad. I'm also a carrier of a plethora of diseases, sour and bitter. It's better that you just let me go—"
"Eat, or be eaten by me." Chu Chen steeled his expression and stared at the pitiful hamster. His gaze had been one of a hungry wolf.
"Little Hero…"
"Eat, or be eaten!" Seeing the little hamster making that ingratiating expression again, Chu Chen decided to ramp up the act. He grabbed the hamster and brought it closer to his mouth. "I'm so hungry. That's it, I'll take a taste—"
"I'll eat it! I'll eat it okay?"
Seeing Chu Chen's wide opened mouth, the hamster could not have helped but let out a sigh, seemingly having resigned itself to its fate. It did not expect to run into a human with the blood pact elixir.
Chu Chen immediately made a prick on his finger and squeezed a drop of blood onto the elixir. The scarlet elixir had been like a sponge, having absorbed all the blood in just an instant. On its surface, a vague golden pattern started appearing.
"There." Chu Chen placed the elixir before the hamster. The hamster looked uninterested. Seeing the scarlet blood pact elixir, its paws subconsciously held onto the elixir. Its beady eyes had actually teared up.
"My child...I'll be gone. From today, the supreme king of beasts would be a slave for a human...don't feel sad for me. With my wisdom and intelligence, I won't let myself be harmed by this small matter. One day, I shall—"
Seeing the hamster having rambled on while having held onto the elixir, Chu Chen grew impatient. When its mouth was open, Chu Chen took the opportunity to shove the elixir into its mouth.
"Cough cough cough...are you trying to f*cking choke me to death!?" The hamster that had prepared to make a long winded speech had been choked by the sudden squeeze.
However, the elixir melted the moment it entered its mouth and did not cause it to suffer much. Very soon, a layer of reddish glow shimmered between the little hamster's white fur and a series of light golden colored patterns appeared on its body.
"Sob sob sob...I've finally fallen to such a state…"
Seeing the blood pact elixir's power spreading throughout its body, the little hamster broke into tears. "Back then, I ruled over heaven and earth…" All the while, the little hamster dropped to the floor and tried to run away.
"Where are you going?" Chu Chen looked at the little hamster, asking curiously.
"What else can I do? What do you want me to do? I've already eaten the blood pact elixir. What else do you want?" The little hamster looked at Chu Chen. Its expression had clearly been dispirited, as though a wife that had been bullied. "If you don't nurture me properly with elixirs in the future, I'll never let you go even in death! I need to settle some matters now and will come back for you after that!" Saying that, it disappeared into the darkness angrily.
'This hamster has quite the personality.'
Chu Chen helplessly rubbed his nose. Ever since the little hamster ate the blood pact elixir, an extra awareness suddenly appeared in his mind. He vaguely felt the little hamster's location and controlled its current state. It felt as though he could have easily caused its soul to dissipate with just a thought.
'Alright, I think my junior sister will love this interesting hamster.'
However, Chu Chen had been more concerned about the little hamster's secret. It was obviously no ordinary hamster. Maybe it could have brought him more surprises in the future.
Chu Chen took a stretch. After the whole night's ordeal, he felt really hungry. Just as he was about to find something to eat, he felt a weird sensation in his soul.
It had been the mysterious eaglet clone of his!
It turned out that the hunger had been from the eaglet instead. He had been busy with the herb garden for the past few days and paid no attention to the eaglet. The eaglet had been the key for him to explore the Black Fog Valley!
Putting all else aside, having entered the Black Fog Valley to obtain the sect founder's Ring of Green Fortune Emperor was his first goal. He needed to have this eaglet grow quickly in order to have continued exploring the Black Fog Valley.


Due to a miraculous encounter, a Roc that was bigger than a mountain became a clone for the teenager, Chu Chen. Ever since then, he obtained the key to enter the divine tomb. Within the tomb is an immortal lady sealed inside a jade casket with ice. Inside it were countless immortal treasures, elixirs, magical tools, and so on, free for the taking!








Danny came downstairs silent as usual. Every morning since his father left was the same: I would wake up early, make us breakfast and call him exactly once. We would eat together and, despite my efforts to make a conversation, my son would just shake his head yes or no. Then I would kiss his head goodbye and he would leave to take the bus to school.

"I was thinking of getting another hamster" I said, munching on my toast. "To keep Barney company".

Barney was our tuxie hamster. Ever since Danny was little he wanted a hamster, but his father liked cats better, and I wasn't much into pets. We knew we would have to take care of the pet for him. However, after seeing my boy down and awfully quiet for a few weeks, I decided to adopt a hamster to make our home joyous again.

Barney was actually a girl, but the vet just found it out after me and the hamster were used to the name, so I didn't change it.

I easily learned to love my hamster, and Danny seemed at least a little excited about having a pet of his own, but Barney systematically ignored him. I heard of pets ignoring people but this was insane. It was like he wasn't even there.

So I decided to adopt a second kitten mostly to give Danny a pet who gives a fuck.

He agreed with his head and a half-smile that made my day. Then he finished his pancakes, got up and sheepishly leaned in my direction so I would kiss his forehead.

13 is usually a terrible age, but my Danny is such a good boy. If keeping to himself is his way of coping with a broken family, so be it. I had a happy adolescence and by the same age I was already looting my parents and older brother beer; my boy deserved some peace and quiet.

After Danny left to school, I quickly cleaned up and went to my small office. Barney followed me, like she always did when we were home alone.

We live a pretty average life. My house is not small or old, but it's not beautiful either. It's a boring house for a boring untalkative family. I'm doing fine and making decent money as a ghost-writer, but I usually write about the most tedious topics.

I spent all the morning writing without interruptions, made myself a sandwich, made another for Danny and put it in the fridge, then wrote some more. Around 2:30 pm I decided to take a break for grocery shopping.

I'm not a people person but, when you work home alone every day and the only one living with you hasn't spoken a word in eight months, you feel relieved when a familiar face comes your way.

The face belonged to Gloria, the grocery shop manager. She was a motherly older Latina lady, and found me in the snacks corridor.

"Hi, Diana my honeypie", her voice always sounded like singing, and she was always gleeful.

"Hello, Gloria", I smiled back, holding a pack of cookies, "those are Danny's favorite".

"Diana, sweetie", her smile faltered and her chubby face showed genuine concern. "I want you to know that, if you're not holding on, it's ok. You can seek help. Family therapists are great and I happen to know--"

"I appreciate your concern, Gloria. I really do. I will think about it, okay?"

She smiled again and left to talk to another customer.

I knew Gloria meant well, but I couldn't help but feel invaded. I probably mentioned in the grocery store that my husband moved away back when I was a mess about it, although I don't remember.

Going back home, a street I usually take was closed, so I had to turn in the next one possible. I slowed down to turn on my GPS and then I saw it.

It was a huge variety store, announcing big discounts on camping supplies.

I remembered that teenage boys usually love camping, and figured it could be a nice way to reconnect with my son. Hey, mom can be cool and do boys stuff too.

With the help of a very freckled and gentle salesman, I bought all the basics and went home humming happily. I unloaded the car, took the second sandwich from the fridge and went upstairs. By that time, Danny should already be home.

He was in his room, quietly playing videogames. Gloria was right. Maybe we both should go to a therapist. It's not normal to never speak at his age. Maybe I should ask people if he is like that at school. He never had any friends over, so I'll talk to a teacher next week.

Dammit, this is so obvious. It should have occurred to me sooner. But, honestly, I never was the most attentive mother. His father used to take care of this stuff. I miss him sometimes. They were closer than I'll ever be to Danny.

"Hey, baby, I brought you a sandwich", Danny nodded and I kept on talking "You know, I was thinking we could go to a camping trip this weekend. Then the next week we'll adopt our second hamster".

Danny agreed. His face was indecipherable. I wish I could say he was happy, but I didn't know. I never pressured him to talk, but I couldn't help but sigh and say "I wish you would talk to me again someday".

Little did I know that he would, but I wouldn't like it.

•

I learned from Google what I should do to set up the tent and make a fire, and then discovered there was a small forest nearby where we could go. It had security cabins in three points so, if someone needed help, they wouldn't be on their own.

I didn't buy a lantern because I knew we had at least three at home. It should be in the unused room, with all the stuff my ex-husband owned but didn't take. I opened the door and found something I didn't expect.

It wasn't any unused room. It was a nursery, all decorated for a baby girl. The crib, the toys, everything was new, but covered in a thick layer of dust.

Am I forgetting something important?

Sophia: What's the emergency?

Mike: Where getting a call from an anonymous stranger!.

Mark: Call him/her.

Mike pushed a button on the control panel turning off the Xbox One and answering the call.

The superheroes and the anti-hero saw a scary looking shadow.

Stranger: Why hello.

Mike: SHOW YOURSELF!!!

Stranger: Not yet, first let me show all of you my newest test subject!

It was a giant hamster 🐹 with tiny bat wings🦇. The beast was drooling and had a not so smart expression on his face resembling to Patrick Star.



Mark: Ha Ha Haaaa, look at that ugly idiot 😂😂🤣🤣.

Stranger: Yes he is an idiot, I forgot to add a brain.

Mike: That's animal abuse!.

Stranger: I call him bat hamster or BH for short.

Chan: Tell us your name.

Stranger: My name is Dr. Baldwin.

Mike: Meet us at the arena for supers.

Dr. Baldwin:  That's where all the famous fights are located excellent, I shall bring my pet with me.

Dr. Baldwin ended the call turning on the Xbox One and the twins were playing. 

Chan: What were you thinking?!?

Mike: Come on, we can handle him and his giant pet.

Chan: You know, one day you're going to learn to think things through before you rush into them it can get you killed and besides we haven't trained yet.

Mike: Just trust me on this one, we don't need training anyway.

Chan: Oh boy you better be right.

Mike: Guys turn off the Xbox.

Cori & Tori: Yes sir.

24 minutes later everyone made it to the arena.

Mike: There's dr. Baldwin and his monster pet!

Dr. Baldwin was riding on his pet.

The bat hamster shot fire out of his mouth.

Everybody except Tommy ducked in time.

Tommy: Good thing I'm fire proof.

Tommy quickly got out of the way while Jay froze the ground.

Dr. Baldwin: This town isn't big enough for all of us.

Mike: Will see about that.

Dr. Baldwin jumped off his bat hamster and landed on the ground with ease.

Dr. Baldwin got a big freeze ray from his backpack.

Chan: My, you're quite flexible.

Dr. Baldwin: Thank you... NOW FREEZE!

Dr. Baldwin turned on his freeze ray. He was able to freeze everyone except Jay.

Jay: Nice try but you're freeze ray is no match for me, I'm invulnerable to freezing temperatures.

Dr. Baldwin: That's a real bummer.

Dr. Baldwin switched the gun to maximum freeze (Below 0 degrees) and shot the sky.

Just a minute later it started snowing.

Jay passed out because it was too cold.

Dr. Baldwin: Not so invincible now are we??

Dr. Baldwin threw Jay on BH and they flew to his lair.

Jay woke up tied to a chair.

Jay: WHO'S THERE? AND WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!?!?

Dr. Baldwin: That's a good question my compadre, you're super power intrigues me. How did you get it?

Jay: I don't know.

Dr. Baldwin: Come on you have to know.

Jay: I got it from birth maybe?

Dr. Baldwin: So you really don't know?

Jay: No, Can I go now?

Dr. Baldwin: NO!

Dr. Baldwin: I guess plan A didn't work but I bet plan B will.

Jay: Wait what are you-

Dr. Baldwin put tape on Jay's mouth and kicked the chair into his giant freezer.

Dr. Baldwin: Let's see how long you last! WAHAHAHAHA😈😈.

Meanwhile...

Tommy's body set on fire causing him to break free.

Tommy: Hey I'm free! I have to free the others.

Tommy threw fireballs at each ice cube.

Mike: Thanks Tommy

Mark: No one freezes Mark and gets away with it!

Sophia: Tommy.

Tommy: Yes?

Sophia: Your on fire.

Tommy: Yea i am the best thanks for noticing.

Sophia: No I mean your LITERALLY on fire!

Tommy: It doesn't hurt.

Layla: Where's Jay?

Chan: Baldwin must've taken him to his lair.

Tommy: I'll lead the way.

 Dr. Baldwin was peacefully reading his book when Tommy Knocked down a frozen door.

Baldwin: How did you-

Mike punched him before he could finish.

Tommy: Shut up and tell us where our friend is now!!

Baldwin: Or what?

Tommy: you will be burned into a crisp that's what!

Baldwin: Fine.

Baldwin got a tied up Jay from the freezer and untied him.

Mike got the tape out of Jay's mouth.

Jay: OUCH!!

Mike: Now cooperate and let us take you to jail.

Baldwin went out the door and made a run for it.

Mike: Should we get him?

Chan: No he'll come back.

Layla: What do we do with the fella over there?

Cori: Let's take him for ice cream and keep him.

Chan: Not a bad idea.

They all went to the ice cream parlor, found a place for BH and then went to sleep.

"?" Senior White. 
Senior White Two said, "So, you should also pay attention to the female characters around you. The real backup might be hidden among them. If it were according to my cautious character, I might have created even more than one backup."
When he had that time-traversing conversation with 'Wielder of the Will White', he had jokingly mentioned wanting a little sister. Perhaps Wielder of the Will White's brain really did go haywire, and he actually gave him a little sister?
❄️❄️❄️
At this time, Song Shuhang was slowly flying back from a distance.
He deliberately flew slowly, giving Senior White and Senior White Two more time to communicate with one another. After all, it was sometimes difficult to talk about some relatively private topics when there was a third party present.
"Song Shuhang?" At this moment, a voice sounded from not too far away.
Song Shuhang turned his head, and saw a familiar figure.
It was the demonic hamster with its signature toothpick sword. It was wearing a handsome white chivalrous robe, looking at Song Shuhang in surprise—how had this guy got to the world of the black lotus?
"Oh, Old Pal, long time no see!" Song Shuhang waved at the demonic hamster, and casually checked out its realm at the same time—long ago, the demonic hamster had said that it would ascend to the Fifth Stage and beat him up. If he were to consider the time, it should have ascended a long time ago, right?
However, the demonic hamster's realm was strangely still stuck at the Fourth Stage.
The demonic hamster gritted its teeth, and said, "Ptui, who is your Old Pal?"
Song Shuhang smiled slightly. "Why is your realm still at the Fourth Stage?"
"Why do you care?!" The demonic hamster snarled. It then jumped onto a flying sword, showing an expression that it was about to hit Song Shuhang on the knee.
Song Shuhang smiled, and said, "You yourself said that you wanted to ascend to the Fifth Stage, and then come to beat me up. I've been waiting for you to reach the Fifth Stage."
"..." The demonic hamster. 
Song Shuhang asked, "Did you fail to transcend your tribulation?"
However, this was the Netherworld Realm, and the demonic hamster was Senior White Two's pet. So it wouldn't make sense for it to fail in transcending its tribulation, right?
The demonic hamster coldly said, "I'm currently preparing to soar into the sky in one fell swoop."
"Then I'll be waiting." Song Shuhang smiled, and said, "By the way, wanna know my realm? I'm already at the Fifth Stage Realm."
"I knew it a long time ago." The demonic hamster grimaced. When it thought about Song Shuhang ascending to the Fifth Stage a step ahead of it, its stomach began hurting.
"Then, do you know that I've got five cores, and have five times the strength?" Song Shuhang continued. "That being said, I'll be cheering for you."
"..." The demonic hamster. 
I can't talk to this guy at all. I only said a few lines, yet I've already been jabbed to death.
Song Shuhang smiled and looked at the demonic hamster, which had an upset face. The little hamster was very cute, and its expressions were very human-like, so he had a sense of accomplishment whenever he got to tease it. No wonder Senior White Two accepted this Fourth Stage evil monster as a pet.
Song Shuhang and the demonic hamster continued to fly side by side to the entrance of the world of the black lotus.
"Why are you flying so slowly?" the demonic hamster asked in suspicion. 
Song Shuhang wasn't flying on his saber at this time. He was merely relying on Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperors' ability to tread the air. He floated in the air, and slowly advanced while looking like he was swimming.
Song Shuhang said, "I'm giving Senior White and the other Senior White some more personal time. They're talking about very important matters, and we shouldn't disturb them. That's why it's better to fly slowly."
The demonic hamster glanced at Song Shuhang in surprise—this guy could be sensible at times?
"In addition, I quite like this feeling of swimming through the air," Song Shuhang said. "I haven't tried this out before. When I return, I will suggest adding an 'Air Swimming Race' in the Cultivator Olympics to Senior White."
"Right, you should try it out. The feeling of swimming in the air is amazing. Oh, I forgot, you are only at the Fourth Stage, and you don't have the ability to tread the air," Song Shuhang said, rending the heart of the demonic hamster once again.
"..." The demonic hamster. 
F*ck you! After I master my divine skill, I will definitely f*ck you up!
❄️❄️❄️
While Song Shuhang and the demonic hamster were slowly flying toward the entrance of the world of the black lotus, they saw the two Senior Whites sitting face-to-face.
The two had stopped talking, and seemed to be deep in thought.
Song Shuhang said, "It looks like the exchange between the two Senior Whites is over. Let's head down."
"You go down." The demonic hamster smiled, and said, "I'll just be staying in the air. Hurry up and go down, I'll be waiting for you here."
"..." Song Shuhang. 
Your expression shows that you're obviously trying to trick me.
The demonic hamster saw that Song Shuhang was no longer going down, so it slowly said, "My master is very dangerous when he is deep in thought or in a daze."
Mm-hm, Senior White was indeed very dangerous when he was in a daze; he was basically a map-wiping bomb.
As a result, the demonic hamster stayed on its sword in the air, while Song Shuhang swam around it in circles, waiting for the two Senior Whites below to recover from their daze.
At this moment, Senior White Two suddenly said, "Do you remember anything from your childhood?"
Senior White softly replied, "It's very vague, and I can't remember much. It was too long ago."
Senior White Two asked, "Yeah, it's been quite a long time... Anyway, when did you have that memory of being in the desert with the young man in green robes riding a white horse and Little White?"
Senior White thought back. "It was a memory from my childhood. I was still very young back then."
Senior White Two seriously said, "When we talked about this before, the topic has been interrupted by Death-Seeking Song, so we haven't gotten to continue our discussion of it. But now, I suddenly want to confirm something."
Senior White nodded slightly. "Speak as you wish, no need to hold back."
"..." Song Shuhang. What the hell is Death-Seeking Song? I don't remember having such a nickname.
"In that memory, who are you?" Senior White Two stared at Senior White.
Senior White paused, and said, "Of course, I'm White. Isn't that our identity?"
"No!" At this time, Senior White Two suddenly stood up, posing as a golden rooster standing on one leg with bright white crane wings spread out. "I am the white horse!"
"???" Senior White. 
"???" Song Shuhang. 
"Ugh, I got carried away." Senior White Two shook his hands vigorously, and said, "No, in that memory, I am the young man. Sure enough, this is where the problem lies."
Senior White Two stared at Senior White carefully. In his distant memory, he was the young man in green robes who liked leading a white horse along and looking for Little White to practice every day.
And the present 'White' in front of him, should be the 'Little White' from back then.
In the air, Song Shuhang's eyes lit up.
He could smell some juicy gossip.
They were clearly both Senior Whites, so why was one Little White and the other was the young man in green robes riding a white horse?
There was only one truth.
Senior White split into two, right?


One day, Song Shuhang was suddenly added to a chat group with many seniors that suffered from chuuni disease. The people inside the group would call each other ‘Fellow Daoist’ and had all different kinds of titles: Palace Master, Cave Lord, True Monarch, Immortal Master, etc. Even the pet of the founder of the group that had run away from home was called ‘monster dog’. They would talk all day about pill refining, exploring ancient ruins, or share their experience on techniques.
However, after lurking inside the group for a while, he discovered that not all was what it seemed... 

Ayaan around saw Rebecca entering his tent with Ifre followed by Leafwhisk, Isobel, and Noor. 
"Wow!" Suddenly Rebecca exclaimed and looked at the cute creature on Ayaan's hand. "How cute!"
Others also looked at the hamster and hearts appeared in their eyes after seeing how cute it was. "Where did you find this cute hamster?" Noor looked at the animal.
"Where did you find this pet?" Isobel asked. 
And just when she said the word 'pet', the hamster looked at the lady furiously, but then, it somehow calmed itself down. It wasn't a good idea to make everyone his enemy. He thought.
The hamster looked at the girls and said in a proud tone. "Humph, what do you mean by cute? Call me handsome." 
"Wow!" the tent filled with exclamations when the hamster talked. Ayaan couldn't help but have a little headache. He knew the charm of cuteness because once he was also a cute dog.
"Can I touch it?" asked Rebecca and looked at Ayaan with puppy eyes. Ayaan saw her cute face and his heart melt in just a single glance. 
"Take it," he extended his hand at Rebecca on which the cute hamster was sitting.
Rebecca looked at the hamster and tried to take in her hand from Ayaan. "Heh?"
However, when she stroked the hamster, she could not touch it. Her hand passed through its body like an illusion!
"Why?" Rebecca and others looked at the hamster in disbelief and she turned towards Ayaan. "Why can't I touch it?"
"How can you touch me when I am just a spirit? I am not made of material but from energy." The hamster replied disdainfully. Though in a girl's eyes, its expression became cuter and wanted to pinch and feel its body. Alas, they could not.
"What is going on?" Leafwhisk asked. "What is this hamster?"
Ayaan took a deep breath and explained everything that happened just a few moments prior. The girls heard what he said and became stunned. "So this thing is a pagoda spirit?" asked Noor.
"But why didn't it reveal itself before?" asked Isobel in confusion.
Ayaan looked at the cunning hamster and also realised something after hearing Isobel's word.
"What are you staring at me?" snapped the hamster. "Do you think anyone would be happy to become someone's slave? So I didn't want to come out." It said grudgingly.
Ayaan looked at the little thing on his hand and felt as if it was hiding something. He didn't know where this feeling was coming from, but he just knew. "You are hiding something," Ayaan said, looking at the creature with narrowed eyes.
The hamster struggled and eventually lost his patience and blurted out everything because he knew Ayaan could tell if it was speaking truth or lying, that's what master-servant pact was about. "Alright, at first I wanted to control you, but I failed because of the thing inside you and somehow became your servant."
Ayaan blinked in understanding. If it wasn't for the World of Life and Death, he might have turned into someone's slave. This damn despicable, evil, creature wanted to make him its slave! Even thinking that kind of possibility made Ayaan shiver in fear.
Others also heard its words and left stunned. Now they were wondering if they should call it cute, pitiful or stupid. It tried to make Ayaan its slave and turned someone's slave instead. What a tragic end, what a tragic life.
Ayaan thought of something and asked the hamster curiously. "So did you turn the previous owner of the pagoda into your slave too?"
The hamster's expression turned bitter and crestfallen when he heard Ayaan's question. "When the pagoda was passed to the previous owner I was suppressed by someone." It said. The hamster looked at Ayaan and continued disdainfully. "Don't ask who it was because you are too weak, even bugs are stronger than you in the higher worlds."
Leafwhisk who was standing not far away narrowed her eyes when she heard hamster's words. Ayaan also remembered the scene when a dying man passed the pagoda to Nolan. Just the ash of that man's body evolved the entire forest, if someone had the power to suppress then it must be that guy, and Ayaan also remembered the man talked something about gods.
He had some doubts about this god thing before, but now after hearing this hamster's words, he was having second thoughts. Are there really gods in this world? He didn't know the answer, so he left it for the future.
"Do you know anything about the previous owner?" Ayaan asked. He was rather curious about this guy called Nolan, because he had seen a short life of Nolan, after all. He glanced at Leafwhisk from the corner of his eyes and relaxed when her expression didn't change, or she hid her real expression. No one knew.
"I don't know anything about the previous owner," replied the hamster. "I was suppressed at that time and fell into a deep slumber. I woke up from the slumber only after the previous owner died. At that time there was only this lady inside the pagoda but she never tried to get the legacy of the pagoda if she had, hehe." The hamster chuckled evilly as it glanced at Leafwhisk.
Ayaan turned towards Leafwhisk and asked, "did you know about this evil hamster?"
Leafwhisk looked at Ayaan and her face turned icy cold. "I didn't." She replied and walked away without staying any further.
Only after speaking Ayaan realised that he had said something wrong. He literally doubted the lady by speaking those words. "Leafwhisk!" before she could walk out of the tent, Ayaan called out her name hurriedly. 
The lady stopped and looked at him, her face still cold. "What?" she asked.
"I am sorry," Ayaan said while looking into her green enchanting eyes. Only then she smiled and said, "no problem, but be careful next time." 
Ayaan looked at her back and cold sweat poured down from his temple. Though she looked gentle and weak and carefree, Ayaan knew that she was most difficult to deal with in his group.
As she walked out of the tent Ayaan could only smile bitterly. He turned towards the hamster again. "Am the only one who can touch you?" he inquired. 
"Yes," replied the little animal with a lack of interest.
"Can you live only on my body or also somewhere else? I mean can you walk around without my help?" 
"No," 
"So what should I call you?"
"Call me handsome."
"..."
Ayaan looked at the little creature and couldn't find it handsome from anywhere. "You don't look handsome to me." he blurted in the end.
"How could an ugly creature like you understand my handsomeness?" hopped the animal furiously at Ayaan.
"Yeah, yeah," Ayaan rolled his eyes at the hamster. The girls also chuckled at the side when they heard their conversation.
The Isobel remembered something and asked, "you are the spirit of the pagoda so can you still change the physic of the person and give them powerful cultivation?"
Everyone's eyes glittered hearing her question, and they turned towards the hamster.
The little animal looked at everyone and knew that its time to shine had arrived. He stood on its back legs and puffed the chest out. Then grinned. "If you want to know… call me Handsome."
"..."
Now Ayaan was sure that this hamster was just a child. Though he didn't know why someone made this little child of a hamster, the spirit of the pagoda. There must be some reason, but he had something else to ask, so he pushed the question for another time.
"Why do you want to be called Hansome?" Ayaan asked helplessly.
"Because I am handsome," replied the spirit on Ayaan's palm.
"Alright, Handsome, can you please tell us if you can still use the abilities of the pagoda," asked Ayaan with a bitter smile.
"Hehe, remember from now on, I am Handsome," Handsome said.
"Now tell us if you can or not!" Ayaan was at his limit and had the urge to once more smack this damn hamster.
"Hehe, see this," chuckled Handsome and shouted. "Appear!"
Ayaan looked in front of him and his eyes turned wide because in front of the hamster appeared a screen. He saw three options on the screen: one was Status; the second was Physics; the third was Cultivation Techniques. At the very top of the screen, Ayaan saw a name: Handsome.
"You have a system?" Ayaan asked in astonishment.
"What system? This is what I gain after I evolved...cough I mean after I became your servant." Said Handsome embarrassedly. Then he looked at Ayaan and asked cunningly. "Do you know why my name is Handsome?"
Ayaan looked at his smirking face and asked, "why?"
"Because you have approved it, muahahaha!"
"..."
Everyone looked at the little hamster in Ayaan's hand speechlessly. "So that's why you were insisting for Ayaan to call you Handsome?" Rebecca asked.
"Muahahaha!"
"..."

Everyone were surprised at Ye Song when they saw him smashed the table  and cursed the instructor. They can't believe that someone was brave enough to disrespect the officials of Everest Town.
The moment they saw the table was smashed, they all have one thing in mind.

"He's done".

No one was dumb enough to do what he did to the officers of Everest Town because they need the ration that was given daily to survive. If you are banned from the ration, you need to find your own food. with how dangerous this world has become, you might encounter monsters while looking for food, the most likely to happen was, you will die miserable.

Because of this reason, no one dared to offend the officials of Everest.

The Instructor was still glaring at him and coldly said.

"Nobody force you to join here! You came here because you want to be Chosen!"

"Why are you acting like this now? you came here because you wanted a comfortable life too, am I right?".

"What's with this bullshit you are trying to say now?" The instructor reprimanded him.

Ye Song coldly laughed when he heard this.

"Yup, You're right. Before, I wanted to be a Chosen because I want change my life and the life of my family. But after I heard what you said, I've change my mind".

"I don't want to join anymore!".
 
Ye Song continued to stare coldly at the instructor and said.

"You should be thankful that you're not a monster, you are very lucky that you're not a monster..."

"I will spare your pathetic life just for the face of humanity. If humanity were not declining, you're no longer be standing in front of me!"


The Instructor laughed out loud when he heard what Ye Song said. he laugh till tears came out.
It was the most ridiculous thing he ever heard in his entire life.

"Ye Song right? okay, thank you for sparing me.... hahahaha!"

"Oh..... By the way, You and your family are banned from the ration from now on!".

"Good luck hunting food! hahahaha!".

The Instructor said while laughing at him.

Ye Song didn't bother talking to him anymore and walk away.. It's not worth his time to continue arguing with an idiot.

"Be sure to remember his face and tell every guards that he was banned from the ration. Fucking Kid who only knew how to be invisible, still have the guts to talk big in front of me".

The Instructor continued to throw insults as Ye Song was walking out of the building.

When Tango saw Ye Song coming out of the building, he was confused. he asked.

"What happened? Is the test done?"
"No, I changed my mind. I'm not joining the freedom guild".

Tango was shocked when he heard Ye Song. he couldn't believe this kid don't want to be a Chosen.

"We do not have the same point of view of the Instructor so I left. I do not agree with his Ideal".
"I see, what are you gonna do now kid?".
"I don't know, I need to go home first and tell my family we can't get any ration from now on".
"You're banned from the ration?"
Ye Song just nod and keep walking. 

While dumbfounded, Tango heard Ye Song spoke.

"Thanks for helping me...".

Tango did not say anything and just looked at Ye Song with a complex look.
-
-
When Ye Song arrived at his home, he hesitated for a bit before finally made up his mind.
He then told his mom all the things happened to him. when he became evolved, him rejecting being a Chosen and getting banned from the ration. he told his mom all of it.

Yuna was shocked but when he saw his son feeling guilty. she smiled and told him.

"It's alright, I know you have a good reason why you did that. Everything you do, I will support you..".

Ye Song's eyes turned red when he heard it, he felt warmth in his heart. He replied.

"Thank you mom, I just can't do it. I can't abandon the people who helped us in the past. They helped us when we have nothing and If I accepted the condition for being Chosen, I will look down on myself for not knowing how to repay favors. I will protect this place in return, I will think of a way to get food and find a more suitable place to live to help the villagers have a better life".

"Alright, Do what you want to do". Yuna smiled while looking at her son who had grown up.
-
-
After solving the situation on his mom.

Ye Song returned to the forest where he left Ahoka to continue raising his level. he was a bit worried if something happened to that fat belly hamster. he looked around the forest and after a while, he heard a noise, he walked towards the noise and heard someone was singing.

He approached to see who was singing, when he saw who it was, he was surprised and couldn't close his mouth for a long time ...

He saw a big hamster and four penguins, singing.

"I'm beginning to feel like a Rat God"
"Rat God!"
"All my people from the front to the back nod"
"En!" (nodding) En!" (nodding)".
The penguins were responding in unison while the big hamster was singing.

The four penguins look like trained soldiers based on their posture, their bodies had white and dark green color instead of usual white and black color that penguins had.

Their whole front were white while their backs were covered in dark green. and they stood in a row while looking at the big hamster singing.

"Ahoka?" (Japanese: Are you an idiot?)

"Hmm? Master!" Ahoka turned around to looked who called him, when he saw Ye Song, he jumped happily and walked towards him, whereas the four penguins followed behind

"Did you call me master?".
"Ahoka?" (Japanese: Are you an idiot?).
"Yes master!".

He looked at the fat belly hamster who's body was wiggling in front of him and began to have headache.

He tried to forget what he just heard earlier and used [Inspect] to see his status.

"Master, I didn't slack off and did my best to raise my strength!" Ahoka stood up and made a proud face after what he said. his cheeks were bulging like a chipmunk and his fat belly was completely exposed when he stand up. he was satisfied with his accomplishment and wanted his master to give him compliment for completing the task he assigned.

"Level 20 only and you're already this cocky."

He was looking at the fat belly hamster in front of him, when he noticed the four unusual penguins standing in a row beside Ahoka. he took a closer look at them.

Ahoka, noticing Ye Song's gaze on the penguins, he happily said.

"Master! these are my followers!".

Ye Song was shocked when he heard what the fat belly hamster said. he was still in a daze when he heard one of the penguin with a sly face spoke.

"Greetings, Human. I am Kuchi the Leader of the Penguin Commandos".

Kuchi raised his flipper-like wings and offer a handshake to Ye Song.

Ye Song easily accepted the handshake and said while in a daze.

"Y-Yeah, Nice to meet you.. E-Eh?!, what is Penguin Commandos?".
"Penguin Commandos are a unit of soldiers specially trained to carry out raids".
"Raids?!?!"

Ye Song couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Soldiers specially trained to carry out raids? what the fuck!" he thought to himself.

He then looked at the other three penguins.

One has a smart look on his face, you can tell that he was the brain of the group.

One was cute and cuddly, making feel like you want to bring it back home.

And the last one looked like a terrorist, he had grenades around his body.

The four have many similarities, even the color of their feathers which is white and dark green are the same except their faces.

When Kuchi saw the gaze of Ye Song focused on the three penguins, he introduced them to him.

"These are my subordinates, Human."

"The Smart looking one is Richi, He is in charge of our tactics when raiding".
"Hello, according to my calculations you are a one big pervert".
"The one that looked like a terrorist is Hachi".
"Me boom! Me Likey!".
"And the last is Pochi, well.... He is in charge of cuteness".
"Teehee! :P ".

Ye Song was dumbfounded. He didn't expect the fat belly hamster to get a follower.

"Hey guys, He is my master so if you are my follower, you need to acknowledge him as your master!".
"That's simple, I hereby declare my resignation to be a leader and offer my loyalty to you. Listen men! from now on, we will follow this human!".
"Aye aye, Sir!" the other penguins responded.

Then, they walked towards Ye Song and saluted.

"Subordinate greets Master!".
"Eh? That's it?".
"Of course not master, we need to establish a connection to make sure we will be loyal only to you from now on!".
Ye Song was still confused how did this happened.
"How did you meet Ahoka?"
"Ehem! let me tell you master!". Ahoka cut in and cleared his throat.

"Last night, I was battling with so many monsters, I fought them all with ease and relax attitude. They were fascinated because of my graceful and overwhelming strength and decided to follow me from then on".
"TELL THE TRUTH!!".
"I've known them on the Monster World and they heard that I came down to Earth so they follow me here to play because they are bored. I just coincidentally saw them here in the forest so we decided to hang out".

Ye Song was having a headache. with just Ahoka, he was already close to being crazy. If these four idiots joined, there will be more headaches from now on.


Seeing the distress look of Ye Song, Kuchi, who was the leader of Penguin Commandos said.

"You don't need to worry about our food, Master. We are trained to live in wilderness. just this simple task, you don't have to worry about it. Come, Let's establish the connection".

After Kuchi said that, there's a tiny dot light came out of his body. the same thing was happening to the other penguins. the tiny dots float around Ye Song and entered his head after.

YeSong was surprised when he saw the four penguins had high levels. 
They will be helpful to him when he hunt monsters. 
He literally don't need to do anything. 
He will let them do the killing and he will still get the experience from this. 
When he thought of this, he was elated.

While he was immersed in joy, Ahoka asked him a question.

"What happened to the test, Master? did you passed?".
"No, the Instructor and I doesn't share the same point of view so I left and didn't took the test".
"Oh, I see...well, this is more better than live alongside the hypocrites inside the town".

The four commandos were curious about what they were talking, so they inquire about it. when they learn what it was, Kuchi suddenly spoke.
"Can I give a suggestion Master?".
"Go ahead".
"Uhmm, why don't you just build your own?".
"Build what?"
"Why don't you just build your own town for the people living outside the Everest?".

When Ye Song heard this, a sudden idea flashed in his mind..

He smiled and said.

"You know what, that's a good idea....".

Monsters from another world invaded Earth.

The Humanity fought back but suffered heavy casualties instead. 

They have only a small part of Earth to live.

Before the humanity perishes, the Heaven gave them a chance. 

The humans began to evolve one after another and got strength to defend themselves.

But one person evolved strangely.

Ye Song woke up and saw the monsters invading.

"System, What is my level now?" 

*Ding* 

*Host level is 999*

It's been 3 days since they attacked, but Fantasma Rosso haven't made their move. Everything's not back to normal, stated by the Branch 1 members. Delta has been distancing herself, the doctors of the House Quattrocchi declared Flavio that he is currently in comatose, Letizia is currently attending counseling, while the others are having their break. The cafe is still being fixed, that's why, but still, they should be cautious when roaming around the city.

Luciano decided to cheer Dorotea up by walking around the city, it is a bit hot but thankfully the buildings are blocking the sun rays. While walking, the two ate an ice cream and then went malling but still, Dorotea stays silent the whole time. Upon walking around, they saw Dante in the Pet Shop, buying some pet foods. 

The two approached Dante, "Yo, femboy." Luciano greeted, "Call me Dante Marco the 2nd, also, what brought you here...? With Doro?" Dante responded.

"We could hang out if you want." Luciano offered, "Nah, I will pass.. I have a lot of things to do.." Dante rejected as he walks away while carrying the paper bag.

"Wait, are those nuts...?" Dorotea asked.

"Uhh, yeah, and how'd you knew it was nuts...?" Dante asked back.

"I just guessed it.." she averted her gaze.

"These nuts are for Flavio's pet hamster though.. I'll be taking care of Pucci since he's still in coma." Dante responded.

"C-can I come..with you..?" Dorotea bashfully looks down

"Sure.. Luci you comin'?" Dante shots a sideward glance at Luciano, he nodded in response. 

The three walk together towards the apartment, after reaching the building they entered their apartment. 

"Giusto anong ginagawa mo rito?! (Giusto what are you doing in here?!)"Dante exclaimed upon seeing Giusto laying on Flavio's bed.

 "I can't understand a thing Dante." Giusto sighed while poking Flavio's pet hamster, Pucci. "Adorable!" Dorotea exclaimed before rushing towards the hamster.

"Wait, do you like hamsters...? We can buy one if you want." Luciano offered.

"No, I want to look after Pucci and also, stop poking the furball you simp." Dorotea responded while glaring at Giusto who stopped poking the hamster. 

"Jeez.... I guess we four will be hanging out in here.." Dante sighed while putting the paper bag in the cabinet. 

"Who said four?" 

"Tomasso why the hell are you here?!"  Dante threw a canned good at him yet he only caught it. "I was bored... So after seeing you three walking towards this establishment, it piqued my interest." Tomasso explained, "Don't worry, I brought snacks." he added while showing his backpack filled with foods.

Meanwhile, Delta can be seen feeding the pigeons with seeds in the park nearby the fountain. Pio has been watching over her.

"Say.. wanna visit them..?" Pio suggested while looking at Delta.

"Sure.." she responded while standing up.

He ride on his bicycle while Delta sits on the back of the bicycle. As Pio started peddling, Delta hugs him from behind, since she'll fall if she's not gonna hold onto him. He whistles while peddling while she's gripping on him tightly. The two arrived at the cemetery, Delta proceeds to the Flower Vendor to buy some fresh chrysanthemum, Pio waited for her at the entrance. Delta arrives while bringing three bouquet of chrysanthemum. They visited three graves who are placed next to each other, she placed a bouquet of chrysanthemum on each graves. 

Pio only looked at one grave, "Fausta Fiore.." he read the embedded name on it, "Even though only half of your body was found.... Atleast we gave the other half a proper burial.." he added while looking down. 

Meanwhile, Delta stares at the other two, owned by Klaus Sapienti and Rosabella Acerbi. A hint of sadness could be seen in her eyes but her facial expression remains stoic. "I really thank you... Klaus.. for bringing me in the Mafia." Delta puts on a tough smile while kneeling, "Even though I never met you, I'm still thanking you for saving me from that old lady's plans." she added while looking at the other gravestone. 

"Delta..?" Salvatore was surprised seeing both Delta and Pio in here. 

"Ohh.. Salvi.." Delta smiles at him, "Who are you visiting??" Salvatore asks Delta.

"My mom, Klaus and Fausta." she answered while looking at the gravestones.

"So your mother's name is Rosabella.. nice." Salvatore smiles.

"Also, what is your relationship with Klaus from the House Sapienti..?" he asked.

"He was my fiance, we were almost married but his intention was to recruit me in the Mafia." Delta answered while smiling.

"I guess he was a great person..." Salvatore averted his gaze at Delta, she just nodded in response. 

Pio can be seen pouting while spying the two, while spying, he spotted Gamma with his girlfriend visiting someone but he just ignored the two. Salvatore and Delta continues to chat while Pio's been spying on them. 

On the other hand, Filippo, Beta II, Arturo and Marco has been monitoring the Fantasma Rosso's movements for the past days. Marco concluded the sixth word was revenge while the last one was our peace is ruined. Even him doesn't have any idea on what are those clues for yet he's interested on knowing the truth about the House Quattrocchi. He noticed the weird differences of each 'Arturo' whenever the two interacts. Sometimes the Arturo he knows has this habbit of drinking a lot of coffee while the other only prefers cappuccino. The other is serious while the other is somewhat a joker. He began researching after he overheard Delta and Salvatore's conversation at the House Sapienti garage. He happened to be walking around the area until he heard the two talking about the experiments. It piqued his interest so he started researching about the House Quattrocchi. He's also working hard to be the House Maestri's candidate, in that way, he could fix the corruption inside of the Mafia that the others can't notice nor see. The secrets of the House Quattrocchi is one of the examples. He do know he's one of Eduardo Maestri's 13 sons, perfect memory, that what others call it.
