Alessandra jovially clapped her hands as she sweetly smiled at Nex's answer, "100 points to Miss Nex! I'm glad you went with my expectations. As for the lot of you feel free to go with Miss Ne- -" Nex interrupted her with a cough, "Sorry but this one's a solo mission." Setsuna raised her eyebrows towards her, "Are you crazy? Thats suicidal. That place may look safe but it's crawling with Magitech grunts."Nex stared at the worried Setsuna and smiled gently. She approached her and took her hands softly. She leaned in close and whispered in her ears, "Oh my dear friend Setsuna, Of course it's infested by bugs! Why do you think I want to go there in the first place?" She said as her gentle expression warped into a madness filled smile. Solemne silently stared at Nex who could barely contain her excitement and put her palms in her cheeks and crossed her legs, looking bored as she waited for her orders.Alessandra scratched her chin, "I was planning on it to be a joint operation. Although
Nex stared at Setsuna, "They made cool exits one by one. Who the fuck do you think was watching?" She grumbled making Setsuna giggle. "So what now Captain?" She asked as she leaned her back towards the railing to face Nex. She shrugged, "We are absolutely free at the moment. So I don't know that depends." Setsuna, "Do you have any suggestions to any fun places?" Nex stared at her and raised her eyebrows, "What happened to the Ragnarok thing?" She asked making Setsuna flinch a little bit. "I've put my business with them into a pause for a little bit." She said as she stared at the rain filled clouds about to fall any moment. "I've realized I'm not that strong to face the wolf yet." Nex then tapped her on the shoulders, "Come on lets walk home."Setsuna nodded her head, "So I've been meaning to ask. Do you personally know him? Kazama Haruki, I mean?" She asked a little carefully. Nex nodded her head without intending to hide their connection. "I do. I was at the point in my life where n
It was a lake of blood. She was all alone as she stood withing the murky blackness. The only guiding light she had was of the ethereal flames that stretch towards the endless horizon. Screams of both terror and hatred echoed across the black skies. Ruin and Decay surrounded her as she looked around. From beyond, slightly illuminated by the fire, a series of structures obscured by a thin film of shadow, revealed it's visage. She forced her way to trudge the lake of blood, waist high. With every step she could feel rough hands grab at her ankles pulling her beneath the blood lake. The closer she got towards the structures the harder the pull. Soon enough, bloodied corpses rose from it grabbing her hands to prevent her from getting closer. The woman glued her palms together then she was instantly covered in bright stellarite armor that covered her except for her head. Her long black ponytail that seemingly extend tll her waist. > The woman shouted as the dark skies sp
Morgan sighed as she sat beside Cassandra. "How 'bout this. Freshen up, change your clothes and lets go out. You can tell all of this out and we could figure this out together." Cassandra laughed and nodded her head. "Morgan, it's a monday." She said as she opened her closet and took out some nice looking ones. Morgan shrugged as she stared at her windows as she tied it up neatly. "Blame Aradia, after tasting Baron Samedi's drinks she was all... party this, party that. What a mess of a woman." She sighed exasperatedly.Cassandra couldn't help but chuckle, "I see, The Golden Circles esteemed High Council hard at work." She said as she tied her messy hair into a ponytail. She snapped her fingers and all the dirt from her body vanished. Her messy and frizziled hair turned sliky smooth and straight. She waved her fingers as sher clothes floated around the room and instantly changed. Her sheep pajamas turned into a nice fitting white pencil dress, while being adorned in al sorts of luxurio
It was early morning. The sun's rays have barely peeked through the horizon however by some sort of miracle. Nex was awake. She stared at her ceiling, seemingly unable to fall back to sleep. She lay motionless on her bed staring at the flashing screen of the holo TV. Her hands spread eagle as her left hand was clutching the locket Haruki gave her. She lifted her hand to stare at it only for her to close her eyes. She forced herself to sit up and open the blinds on her windows. She stared at Paradise City slowly turning off its blinding lights. All ready for a hard reboot, as it mimicked the rising sun. She put her palms on the window as she watched the holographic advertisments on the side of the buildings on repeat."Once this gig is over... I'll come find you. I promise." She said as she turned her back against the window. She stared at her bags already packed and ready to go. Nova popped out of her shadow and stretched his feline limbs. [You're up early? Excited for another vacati
After freshening up, Nex along with her companions exited her apartment. She stared at her house one last time before turning towards them. "Alright It's gonna be awhile, I hope we haven't left anything important.Then as she turned towards her left she saw Mrs. Su about to go to the market with their android Qinyue. "Oh my Young Miss! Where are you going this time? You're even taking Blair." Nex smiled and grinned as she waved towards the nice old lady, "Oh, another business trip. I'm getting busier and busier these days." Mrs. Su sighed and put her hands on her hips, "Ain't that the truth. MAke sure to eat properly alright? So how long do you plan on being out?" Nex scratched her cheeks from her question and wired rent for atleast 6 months. "That honestly depends on how long it would take. Hopefully after 2 weeks I'd be kickin it back here." She said as she laughed dryly.Mrs. Su nodded her head as she beckoned Qinyue, "Alright young lass stay safe!" Nex sreplied, "I will Mrs. Su!"
"Ain't it a sight to behold?"Nick's words flowed in and out of their ears as they stared at it's majesty. Too stunned to een sigh in amazement. It was a gilded City unlike the one's they know. The entire City was built on top of a floating island on top of the Planet Xynario's atmosphere. It's beauty cloaked for the universe's prying eyes. Unsullied by modern sensibilities as it preserved all sorts of lost cultures from all civilizations scattered across the vast cosmos. Myriads of Lifeforms, from towering giants to small pixie like creatures interact and peruse the various stalls filled with countless items both magical and exotic.Various building of all shapes and sizes that seemingly extent towards eternity, blend together in creating a golden spire of mythical incandescence. It was the prime example of a city of freedom. The fresh air felt refreshing as Nex inhaled various dished laid out in open restaurants that litter the market near them. In front of them was a golden statue
As they stood in front of the gilded gates, as if sensing their prescence, it immediately swung open. Nick then strutted towards the unguarded mansion. As soon as they entered there were two golems that stood tall posing as statues.Then they reched the central fountain surrounded by a mindbending hedgemaze making Nick chuckle wryly as he brought out an amulet that dispelled the illusion. The hedgemaze disappeared and suddenly they were transported towards the front door.Once more the doors swung open and a maid was standing in wait. She looked towards Nick and his companions. "Good Day Sir Nicholas, Lord Caglisotro will see you now. He thanks you for taking time off your busy schedule and visiting him."The maid said as she led them towards the house owner's study. She gently opened the door, then they were greeted by rows of cabinets filled with books. In the center of the room near the window was a desk and behind it was a tall silhouette of a man looking out the window. "Sir Nich
