The clock ticked by rhythmically. Only the sounds of the Holo-Clock echoed across the smoke filled room. The Bulky man named Desmond languidly sat at the large sofa barely enough to contain his large features.He kept staring at the clock impatiently, ignoring the noise of the TV. He's more focused on the time rather than actually watching, so the image on the TV slowly faded into the background.Finishing his stick he put out the embers on the small butt. Creating a tall pile of ashes on the small tray. His room then rang, notifying him on a visitor. He quickly stood up and dusted his ash filled shirt.A languid man in a black suit stood in front of his door. He ruffled his messy hair as he waved his free hand on the intercom. "You can come in Z." Desmond said over the intercom.As soon as he opened the door a pungent aroma assaulted his senses. The smoke and the slightly minty air entered his lungs making him cough several times.He carried inside a large case rather carefully. Desm
Luckily as soon as Nex entered Nadja just pulled the operation blinders across covering Skadi's entire body. It hid her behind the thick fabric, making her heave a sigh of relief. However, knowing the Devil May Care attitude of Nex she still stuck her head inside to take a peek and see what's going on and she saw a tall masked woman lying down on the operating table.While Nadja wore a deadpan expression, "Nex! Manners please... I'm already trying to remove this killer hangover. Don't make it worse." She berated Nex slightly as she popped painkillers inside her mouth. Nex however just gave her a wry smile, "Naj, I have a better solution than those things. Why don't you grab the coffee grounds we got off world, The expensive ones..." Naj stared at Nex in complete disbelief, "I Don't think I need that, but whatever..." Yet as she said it she still went inside her kitchen.Nex on the other hand open the blinders fully. Revealing the full countenance of Skadi. She then drew her brand new
Nex hummed along her way, feeling that everything nobody had said fell into place. Whether it's for the better however, nobody knows. Nova then came out of her shadow and asked her, [You're gonna carry that the whole time?]Nex raised her eyebrows towards Nova, "What else am I gonna do? Not have bullets?" Nova then chuckled in his eerie and gravely voice, [You can put it in my pocket dimension, you know?] He said in a confident voice.Nex put her hand on her face as she glared at Nova, "Now, how the fuck am I supposed to know that? If I knew that I would've stored a lot of shit in your pocket dimension." She then grabbed Nova and waved him around, "It would've made my damn shopping easier if I knew that you little twerp."[I was recovering most my energy these past few weeks. Trying to form a contract is hard work you know. Besides, now that I have absorbed enough mana of the world's and yours. I'm capable of doing a lot more convenient things.]He said as he hovered above her. She th
Mica led the group along. They stopped at a large empty space near the docks. The large empty containers pile up on one another as they obscured the flickering lamp posts lined up to illuminate the Bayview. In front of them were rows of expensive black cars. Men in black suits came out one by one. They stood shoulder to shoulder wearing the same expression, Tense. The man in the middle holding a small briefcase slowly stepped forward. Mica mirrored the man as they faced each other. They were smack dab in the empty area at the middle separating the two groups. Nex on the other hand remained in the shadows observing the entire scene unfold. Chewing on her bubblegum she said to Nova. "Are you done yet?" Nova then came out of her shadow with a frown. [Yes, it's done. I won't do this kind of shit again! ever!] Nex chuckled softly, but she noticed a pale blue flame from inside the middle car. It vanished as quickly as it appeared. "Interesting. Nova go spy on the inside of that car." She
Thunder roared across the skies as lightning fell relatively close to them. Mica opened his eyes wide when Nex came out and looked around as he bellowed, "What the fuck is going on? Are you controlling the weather!?" But the other party was equally clueless to what's happening. They immediately aimed their guns at one another as soon as they regained their bearings."What is the meaning of this!? Are you colluding with Magitech!?" The man in the black suit growled. "I assure you Mr.Habatake we have nothing to do with this."Then as Habatake was about to order his men to open fire. A large bolt of lightning hit the boulder blinding everyone present. When their visions cleared there was a woman clad in black leather clothes. Sporting a Pink rock shirt as she stood atop the boulder.It was Setsuna. She held the jet black blade tightly and swung it. Instantly cleaving the boulder in half. a small ball of lightning sparks came out from inside the rock. It sounded like thousand of birds wer
As the Icemage found an opening to shoot his shot a metal debris suddenly smashed a meter away from his head. It was lodged in quite deeply. As he slowly turned around he saw a woman clad in a black jacket carelessly chewing gum as she eyed him amusedly."So you can fire off Ice bullets huh? Something tells me that gun of yours ain't the regular kind. Mind if I take a quick look?" She said as she slowly approached the already wary man. "What's a guild lapdog doing in this small scale op? tired of getting scraps and want a slice of the meat?" He said as he aimed the gun at her temple.However this didn't deter Nex, she only smiled widely. "Don't be like that we're playing for the same team." The man however scoffed "My loyalty is to the clan not to some random weapon seller. Now step aside and let me do my job or we're feeding two corpses to the fishes tonight.""I don't give a fuck about where your loyalty lies. What I want?" She said as she slowly got even closer. When she was half a
Outside the large villa of AU's CEO. A figure was standing observing the movements of the androids partolling the area. It was Solemne, She was dressed elegantly as usual. Seemingly exhuding a regal air as she was waving her hands in a circular motion. She then snapped her fingers and every single android that was patrolling on the outside, stopped moving as if frozen in place. They could not even used their internal network to signal a warning.She then pressed the doorbell but what came after was silence. She pushed open the pearly white gates and strutted in confidently. As she looked at the villa from top to bottom she couldn't help but let out a gasp of admiration by its sheer idyllic beauty.She then grasped towards the air and a wisp of red smoke formed into a rectangular shape revealing a map of the entire household. Within it were red glowing dots to represent the living beings and blue for the androids. She scoffed by the sheer amount of people inside the house guarding it l
On the docks the battle was still going on. Nex was whittling away the mana reserves of the nameless icemage as she kept slamming her chains riddled with the flames of hell against his barrier. Setsuna was chasing after Mica as he used his last remaining henchmen to block her bath albiet reluctantly.[Nex, you're wasting your mana. Try and think of something else i'm getting bored here.] Nova said as he brought out her guns from her shadow and presented it to her. She then snapped her fingers as the chains disappeared. The Icemage on the otherhand noticed the barrage has ended so he took out a whistle from his pockets. After blowing the whistle he immediatly dematerialized and appeared just as instantaneously. There was quite the gap between him and Nex as he was also quite a trek away from his gun.He stared at Nex as he drank a vial filled with blue liquid. Glowing blue veins were seen through his skin. He put his palms together and made a grasping motion towards the air. Then multi
