episode 36 Desert

At the tavern the team are confused except for "Klai".

Yaguto:-[confused]you keep saying you know who, but what do you mean by that?

Shanks:-[drink]…we don't speak their names here, it's terrorism.

Klai:-I know there is one who knows such a trick, but why would they want him for?

Shanks:-I'm still not sure but…I'm only able to tell you what I saw, they were all about some sort of artifact.

Kira:-an artifact?! I think I'm seeing this a bit closely.

Shimarai:-they are after some sort an artifact, what kind of tool are they trying to gain that might benefit their own?

Shanks:-that "Wreck" boy is something, I mean didn't he do more than just shift?

Klai:-I see where this is going…something about his eye that they know…legends say a man who wielded the magic eye has the ability to destroy and recreate, the black tools were strong and unbreakable even against anything…I think they're trying to use the magic eye to safely bring an artifact to destroy everything.

Yaguto:-then what are we waiting for? Let's go and save.

Klai:-no…that won't do a thing…they are beyond our strength…those who tried vanished and never came back, so it's better if we strategized this situation.

Kira:-hey…are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Klai:-…we're going to the "South West" nation, we will train there till we're ready to face those bastards.

Meanwhile at "Eblees" "Wreck" screams "Stop it" then throws a black orb tool on a shape of a scythe.

Julanda:-impressive, [hold chin]looks like you're powering it quite well, just how long are you going to suffer this consequence?

Raaza:-…that's quite enough, "Julanda".

Julanda:-it is fun reading his mind…it's fine though, I'll search more tomorrow[leave].

Raaza:-when are gonna keep this up? You're trying to resist your eyes that much, then I'll better kill you and use your corpse.

Wreck:-…you care about me, don't you?

Raaza:-what do you mean?

Wreck:-you want me to use my eyes to survive…it's like you look up to me.

Raaza:-oh shut it, I'm doing this so that we can get the artifact.

Wreck:-although…you wished to have it for yourself…just by using me you showed me your desires, and you desire to have me as your slave.

Raaza:-don't act like you've seen right through me…that is not what I wanted at all.

"Raaza" leaves then "Gaplock" enters.

Wreck:-what do you want, "Skarvenian"? you betrayed "Alfred" and took the most dangerous and unprepared project from the "Alfred Gadget Craft Facility", what more do you want to take?

He tried touching him with his hands then realized that touching him was a bad idea.

Wreck:-weren't about to take my eyes?

Gaplock:-if I touch you…everything I've done would be worth nothing, I might be a traitor…but in your eyes you can reconsider.

Wreck:-[angry]this is not how it works, I met "No.123" back at the "EverFrost", with that behavior returning to "Skarven" is your lockdown.

Gaplock:-hello? This mask hid me pretty well, you won't see me taking it off nor "123" ever did, which makes me…safer to go back.

Wreck:-[smirk]do you think and enhanced mask can save you? I programed "123" to be more cautious about finding you.

Gaplock:-[laugh]you'll never know!

At the mean time the team travelled to "South West" nation where the village is calm and cozy, it is a great place for architectures, builders and fishermen to live their lives, they went to an abandoned colosseum for camping.

Klai:-alright, now that we're here we can train as much as we like.

Shimarai:-this place looks abandoned, couldn't we sleep somewhere cozy?

Klai:-like I said, we're going to train here, we will not sleep in the inns, just a camp and a campfire.

Kira:-and lots of fishes.

Blakes:-I don't think I can handle that.

Samuel:-me either, I hate places where it is small and that there's nothing to climb on.

Shimarai:-it is the greatest place to train in, the opportunity to get ready before entering a desert, what's wrong with that?

Armel:-I think I could take a few lessons, I would like to know what kind of training is he giving you.

Yaguto:-you might suffocate at first, then a few times later your body will be capable of handling the a lot of "Ki" control.

Shanks:-by how you explained it you're telling us to die instead of preparing for the greater good.

Yaguto:-then how would you explain it?!

Shanks:-you should find the person within you, the only thing that kept you strong, once you get him to cooperate that way you'll be stronger.

Shimarai:-what about you "Klai"? aren't you going to train?

Klai:-I'm going to have less training, cause right now we don't know what they're cable of, those psychopaths have a similar action "Xephor's"…although there's one of them who can pin point us anytime we get close.

Kira:-they are deadly…but how are we going to figure out what they are capable of? Although.

Shanks:-I slept the whole fight between them and him.

Blake:-I see…so it's more like the time is different between here and "Ever Frost".

Samuel:-and that means it was almost morning, so what were you doing at that time?

Shanks:-I was busy helping out my father for early morning travels, he is probably in the "South" nation.

Shimarai:-alright then, if we can't get the information of what they can do I guess we should train really hard then go for the possibility that their strengths matches ours.

Klai:-okay then…let's begin training.

It has been about 2 days since they've been eating fishes and training and sparring together while "Wreck" kept working on a circle, the mood around the team's camp was like an everyday life and youth, however at "Eblees" is torture and "Gaplock" is waiting the whole not making any move at all.

Zuhair:-you look so unwise! He's your target and your just sitting here doing absolutely nothing while he's completing a circle, don't you want him dead?

Gaplock:-he will die one day and that predict is a reality for sure.

Zuhair:-oh "Lar", oh dear "Lar", just feel the joy for once and stop getting so worked up about this plan your making.

Gaplock:-it is how I choose to do things and not things that are chosen for me, if you go back and make the joy forever…it is a definition of a devil.

Zuhair:-…[chuckle] suit it yourself…no one will stop you, or perhaps no one can stop you.

The team are having fish for dinner and no one looks wounded or hurt.

Shimarai:-well it was a great spar back then, can't believe how much it took me to scratch "Samuel" here.

Samuel:-ha ha, you won't get me next time.

Blake:-good thing we've got someone good at healing people, I just wonder how "Armel" here…well I'm not gonna say it.

Stella:-guys, can you stop talking about these kind of things? Cause we should focus on looking for "Wreck".

Samuel:-so what kind of a dude is he, this "Wreck" you speak of?

Shanks:-do you know that day when 3 children shooting yellow crystals? It's not a myth and he was one of them…it's more like he's an alien friend now, travelling around and what whatever he wants…that is until he decides to leave.

Blake:-now that's bummer! Leaves just like that? That is not what a normal visitor would do.

Samuel:-of course not, I mean visiting then leaving is more like a cult to me, he should know better than to leave a present for his future.

Blake:-yup, it's a crime to let a quite all on her own, does that mean he's too picky about it.

Samuel:-seems to be that way…in that case…let's tie him up here and show him how it's done.

Blake:-after that he better confess face to face without such rejects.

Samuel:-I feel you, man…I think we might be ready to take off, the plan has already been set, right?

Klai:-not yet…we still need to find a way to go through the mansion unseen.

Kira:-we might need some kind a camouflage so that no one knows that we're around.

Shanks:-well I checked for some clothes that resembles the ones from "Red Sand" clothing, although non is available at anywhere, even though we tried to hide there is no good spots around.

Kira:-that sucks!

Klai:-guess we have no other choice but to rush in…we get in and out, no wasting time.

Yaguto:-we rush in? we would be fools at this point.

Stella:-remember, we're doing this to get him back without killing ourselves.

Yaguto:-this isn't what I'm talking about, you have seen what "Xephor" can do, I'm not talking of how powerful he was, it's about how much he likes to torture a child.

Shimarai:-oh right, I've seen how much he didn't hesitate to rip "Wreck" apart, his intentions were too fiend like.

Tika:-don't worry about it…everyone will live, I'm sure of it…there's no need to worry so much because I now we will save him.

Shimarai:-"Tika" is right, it's not like we can't do it, we better be prepared for this.

Yaguto:-…I hope so...(he got me unpromoted and told me that we're done…I want to talk this out, cause I'm not just a fool).

Shanks:-there is no need to rush in, right? It's okay to just try to think of an idea while we're going!

Klai:-we will leave at the morning, straight to "Red Sand".

Kira:-that is quick! Oh right, we can't leave someone suffering for a long time, can we?

Everyone went to sleep after talking, "Yaguto" wakes up in front of his potential gate not knowing why he sees the gate half open.

Yaguto:-why am I here? Am I dreaming this?

He sees a copy of him coming out of the gate although he has no eyes and smiles at him.

Yaguto:-what is happening here? Who are you?

Copy:-the one you hate…you are not going to help anyone just by blaming yourself, can you?

Yaguto:-what are you talking about? I have enough power to do this.

Copy:-I know…it is all because of this gate right here, I can shut it down for you whenever I feel like it.

Yaguto:-…what in the world do you want from me? You're not here just to shut down my potential get, all that is written on the gate shows what I must do.

Copy:-[smile] that is correct, but did you go through it all? There is one thing that is left…[join me].

It is morning and out of nowhere came the "North West" troops to search in the colosseum, everyone woke up but more confused.

soldier (1):-children, this is a restricted area for now, you may please leave before we could cause any harm.

Klai:-[shocked] is there something wrong in the colosseum? No one barely use it anymore.

Soldier:- (2):-haven't you heard? Lord "Ghufran" is about to take over this area so please with your 7 children.

Klai:-…(dammit)…[surprised] wait, how many children did you say?

Soldier (1):-he said leave, you, that girl and 7 children.

Klai:-…(something's wrong)!!
