Sector twenty one, Tiga One, Iris. This… has escalated far too quickly.I close my eyes to take a nap and the next thing I know some incomprehensible stuff happened. Seven’s memories were a mess. Judging by the first few frames I have seen something happened between him and the slut named Lisa, something that wasn’t exactly consensual. However even though humans would usually paint the male, Seven, as the assailant, it seems the situation is far more complex. We were in the ship’s bridge. Everyone, with the exception of the brat, was present. No one dared to speak a word and my host, sitting in his chair hiding his expression with the hand he leaned on, was in no mood for my sarcastic comments. I chose to keep my mouth shut and observe how things go.In the corner Logan peeked in our direction. It seems he made the right choice of staying out of whatever this is, pretending to mend to the ship’s controls. Brayan and Erika stood close by, apparently as confused as I am. Beside them
“Magic, huh…” Seven mumbled, his eyes cast down as he recalled the underground cave. “I almost forgot it’s a thing…”Aley was done with his explanation and the room went back to the deadly silence. No one knew how to react to this, after all magic isn’t something one would account for in this day and age, as powerful a force as it’s supposed to be. Even in the Zesionien empire, which prides itself in mastering all forms of warfare, magic is said to be practiced only by a select few who’re high enough in the social ladder that the public would never hear about.Verta’s seal should’ve been the only time we’d stumble upon a working example. Falling for such scheme isn’t something to blame on anyone, except the witch of course.“I can’t believe I didn’t notice it sooner. I already knew something didn’t feel right. I should’ve… I should’ve…”Not good...Seven’s mind is in disarray and he’s losing control. His veins are flooded with Lightning and it’s adding to his anger a little bit with
Sector twenty one, Tiga one, Seven.Back to my room, I fell face first into my bed. My fluffy pillow felt especially fluffy and I slowly succumbed to temptation to just sleep my worries away.Let’s hope everything turns out fine the next day…As I thought that to myself I remembered that, unlike most people, I have someone constantly monitoring my mind. And she probably heard what I just thought and is preparing herself to lecture me.[Not constantly.] Said my freeloading ghost. [There is a lot I would like to not see.]Then it’s for the best if you don’t look at all.I flipped over to my side and faced the wall. You know I’m not in the mood so…I don’t want to think about anything. Everything turned into a mess all of a sudden and I feel like an idiot. One big idiot who believed things would go his way when that never happened before. What a bad day…I guess this is what I get for overestimating my worth. I let my lust take the better of me and almost became a puppet. But is it my
Sector twenty one, Tiga one."So? this better be important." Seven said the second he arrived at the bridge."Um, uh, yeah… I mean…" Logan was lost as to how he should tell them.He did call for the whole crew to gather -except for Blue, who is sound asleep- and he does have some not so good news, but with their leader still so pissed he couldn’t bring himself to speak.He has yet to cool down! Logan thought to himself, feeling the fur on the back of his neck stand.“Well, remember when I said that we steered away from our intended route?” He spoke after a moment of hesitation, his voice weak and shaky. "Yeah?" Seven recalled him saying something of that nature."Well, I’ve been a little too optimistic, considering we were nearing the first Star Gate…""Quit beating around the bush and say it!""R-right…" Seven sat in his chair, resting his head on his fist while emitting an aura that made the whole bridge tense.He is pissed, he really is pissed! Logan looked at Aley asking for so
Sector twenty one. The ships that had Tiga One surrounded graciously offered to escort it to their mothership. Upon landing, Seven was faced with a whole lot of fur covered anthropomorphic humanoid tigers, each with guns pointed at his face. By now it should already be known that those things don't work on him, however for the ones standing behind him like Aley, Logan, Lilia, Erika and Brayan, facing those numbers head on wasn’t exactly a good idea. After considering the implications Seven decided that it would be for the best to just surrender for the time being.The Herara cuffed both their hands and legs using some kind of space sci-fi device. At first it looked like nothing actually linked the ring like parts, but if one were to move them away from each other an invisible force would quickly pull them back together. That left them with enough freedom to walk but breaking them would be unavoidable when the fighting starts. Lilia told Seven she would look for an opening to remove
Sector twenty one, Logan.For as long as I can remember, I was always fascinated by anything that could fly. Whether it's the birds flapping their wings or the aircrafts roaming the sky, I admired anything unbound by the ground and yearned for the clouds and the never-ending void beyond them. However very early on I learned that life had no interest in letting me have a try.I came from a poor family, one of many pushed into the wildness of the forests surrounding the main cities. What made it worse was my stature. Unlike those my age I had a small built which made finding work hard with no education or connections to rely on, and so I turned to thievery trying to survive.That didn't last long though. I didn't get caught or anything, it's just that one day I met a young female who stole my heart, and to make it work between the two of us I had to have something more stable to build our house on. Between the things I got my hands on were engineering books. Being poor didn't drown my
Sector twenty one, Logan.I was about to pitch in the plan I had thought of, however I was a fool not to expect the fearsome clan head to already have a counter for it. We weren’t allowed to watch. After a quick word with master Seven we would be escorted back to the previous room underneath the arena were we would wait for the results of the duel."Stay calm." Master whispered. "I can do something about that guy… probably.""Probably?..." obviously, I had my doubts. Master seem to have powers of his own, but the uneasiness creeping on my tail told me they won’t be enough."You done yet?" The clan head, standing at a distance, shouted as he waited for us to finish our talk."Yeah yeah, I'm ready, what about weapons?" Master Seven replied."Weapons? You have perfectly fine pairs of arms and legs." I got to watch master Seven train once in the past few days. He never seems to use any type of weapon, but then again he doesn’t do any combat practice. Even if the clan head is going in ba
"So, what are we going to do now?"We left the waiting room through the entrance we came from the first time. According to Ms. Lilia going back using the elevator could get us caught up in the brawl so she plans on finding another way to reach the arena.It's only been a few days since I've known her. From the few times we’ve interacted and seeing how close she became with Blue I formed this image about her being a sweet young female. That image is now being shattered by the blood dripping from her hair and dress and the gun she held in her hands.As we walked down the hallway I gathered the courage to ask what our next step would be. “Wash up, that’s for sure.” Ms. Erika said jokingly, her face a shade paler than usual. "We have to wait for Seven to get done so…” Said Brayan.“I need to get up there.” Ms. Lilia said. “It looks like most combatants are watching the duel. I will go there and wait for Seven’s instructions.”That seemed like the logical way to go through with this, but
