09:48 AM, SOMEWHERE IN THE DEAD TOWN
(Melantha Pov)
I was scared.. And nervous. Kal'tsit gave us a mission to investigate a dead town, she said that there is a Reunion base camp somewhere...
Uh oh... I-I think I see it..
"U-Uhm." I stuttered before continuing, "I-I think we're here..."
Cardigan nodded before replying, "Hooh, it's so empty..! Scary..." She does a little spooked face before smiling back,
"Don't worry Melantha! I'm sure there's no ghosts or anything!" She pats my back, "and I'm sure we can handle Reunion! If they are here..."
"B-But what if they're t-too strong..? What if we-" I was cut off by Ansel, "Calm down, Melantha. I'm sure we can do this mission easily, Kal'tsit trusted us in this one." Melantha quickly closed her mouth before smiling, "I-I see... T-Thank you.."
Cardigan snickered, "Ara~? Is my friend Melantha flustered~?" This quickly made Melantha blush, "N-No..! W-W-What do you mean by that?!"
(Author Pov)
"Well, there they go again..." Adnachiel sighed while facepalming, Steward nodded in agreement. Both Melantha and Cardigan were arguing, it wasn't a pleasant ride...
"Hey, Adnachiel..?" He looked at Ansel giving a 'what's up' face, "So... Why were we picked to go on this operation..?" Ansel asked Adnachiel, "Hmm... Melantha did say that the others were out on a mission... Especially Chernobog." Ansel hums, understanding what he meant.
Amiya and the rest of the picked Operators were on a mission to rescue the "Doctor" from Chernobog. He heard that the Doctor was a ruthless man that would do anything to win, He shivers at those thoughts... Sacrificing others just to win... The impression he gave disgusted him.

"Hey... Heeey.... Ansel...!" Adnachiel snaps his fingers in front of the medic operator, startling Ansel, "Were here y'know, you thinking about something..?" Adnachiel asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Ah.. No, I'm fine... My mind is just full of thoughts right now.." It was a half-lie and half-truth, Ansel was thinking about something... But it wasn't the best situation to talk about it right now. "We should get going then, if you're really tired, we should finish this as soon as possible." Adnachiel said while pointing to his team. Already prepared and was waiting for him
"Alright, alright... I'll get ready.."
After a couple seconds, Ansel came out of the car, bringing his medical equipment and tools, "I'm sorry I took too long." Ansel said, walking to his team, he saw how dead the town was.
"Hey, Ansel! What took you so long!"
"Sorry, I was spaced out for a bit, I'm fine now." Ansel answered Cardigan, who nodded before going back to their leader
"A-Are you guys ready..?" Melantha asked nervously to her team
"Yes!" Her team said in unison, scaring Melantha for a second before starting their mission
"O-Oh...! A-Alright... Then... Let's g-go..." they all started to walk into the dead town, already prepared for the worst... or the good.
(Y/N Pov)
'...'
'Ow....'
'What the fuck happened...?'
'...'
'Oh right...'
'I was attacked out of nowhere.'
Right now, I was laying in a pool of blood... My blood actually.
A pack of dogs suddenly attacked me, can I even call them dogs? They're fucking savages.
Right now, I was surrounded by them, circling around me, ready to do the finishing blow.
'Goddamnit... Is this how I'm gonna die..?'
I can at least count there's 20 of them.
'By some fucking dogs? This is stupid...'
Breathing heavily, I closed my eyes. Pain going through every inch of my body, I was about to die...
'No... Not yet...'
'.. I'm not fucking dying yet...'
Coughing up blood, I struggled to stand up using my right hand, well. What's left of my right hand.
It hurts.
It hurts so much.
But I have to keep going, I promised to go travel around the world.
I promised to go travel around the world like Salvadore.
A dog bit my right hand, ripping a chunk out of my flesh, I winced at the pain, "Arrgh! You fucking pieces of shit!"
I punched the dog's face, earning a 'smack' sound.
...
...
It did nothing. Hell, my left-hand hurts. I guess I'm still that weak, huh...
Now agitated and angry, all of the dogs rushed in. I had no way of escaping.
'Well... It was worth the shot...' I closed my eyes, smiling. Accepting my death... And stupidity.
'...'
'Any second now...'
'...'
'Okay, what the fuck.'
"Hey, you okay?"
"Gah!?"
I opened my eyes, shocked to hear another voice, but it sounded like a girl.
And then I saw her. Blue dark hair, blue dark eyes, and...
"You have horns?!"
What the hell?! Since when did humans started growing one!?
Not to mention, she has a halo above her! Am I dead?! No no no. Is she an angel? Why does she have horns!! Aargh she also has a tail?! Since when did angels have horns!? Wait, am I dead? I mean I guess that makes sense but... Wow that's a cool staff- No! This is weird, really weird!
"Ah.. Sorry if I startled you, I saw you were in trouble there~" she said with a pleasant tone with her sweet smile... Too sweet, actually.
"Huh... Uhm... Are you an angel..?"
(Mostima Pov)
Hmm? That's weird... Is he not scared of me? Well, whatever. He'll realize it soon enough.
"Ehe~ your half right!" He seemed... Confused..?
"Huh..? You are..? Am I dead?"
"No, you silly! You're still in Terra!" I said jokingly, He's pretty badly damaged, I'll treat him later..
"Terra? What's that...?"
Ah... I think he hit his head.
"You know, the place we live in?" I curiously asked, and he answered, "You mean Earth? I don't know what a 'Terra' is.."
He suddenly grumbled in pain, "aah... They got me good..."
"Stay still, you're badly damaged, I'll try to patch you up."
I put his hand on my left shoulder while supporting him with my right hand, he's surprisingly... Lightweight.
He feels pretty skinny, I don't think he has eaten, and the bags under his eyes were pretty dark
"Urk!" He groaned, "S-Sorry..." He held me right, or at least tried to. His grip was really soft and shaky, "Hey, can you keep up and not die right now?" I asked, I didn't have really high hopes for him, he was almost at death's door.
"S-Sure.. I can keep up..."
"Alright... Suit yourself..."
We slowly limped toward a nearby wall, occasionally earning a groan from him, he's really hurt. Duh.
"We're almost there, I'll fix you after this.."
"Hum... I-I haven't gotten your name yet.."
This guy... Heh, alright. "The names Mostima, now. Let's get you patched up tough guy."
"W-Wait! There's savage dogs around he-"
"I already killed them, don't worry!" I said cheerfully
"Oh..."
He went silent after that.
I set him down against the wall, He leaned down at the wall and sighed heavily, "say, what happened to you?" I asked curiously, "Oh I... I was- Ack!" He jolted in pain
"Aah sorry, I'm not that good at theis stuff~" I wrapped his right arm with cloths I found, it was the best I could do right now, "you're skinny and pale there, what happened to you?" I said as I finished bandaging his arm, tightening it.
"Urk..! I'm fine.. Being locked up in a cell your whole life is-"
"Locked up?"
"A-Ah... Nothing.."
That got me interested, but I decided to ignore that for now, "Mhm, what's your name?" I asked,
"My name..? Ah right..." He said while rubbing his head, "My name is... (Y/N).. Yes, my name is (Y/N)." leaning against the wall. It was a great name...
"It's nice to meet you.. Erm..?"
"It's Mostima."
"Ah.. Sorry... It's nice to meet you, Mostima."
I snickered at his answers, which made him relax a bit, he looked like a regular boy... But those eyes he has.. It tells a different story.
"Heh, it's nice to meet you too (Y/N), do you mind telling me what happened to you and everyone in this town?"
"What... Happened...? I-I don't know.."
There it is.
"I-I was... For the longest time.. I was... Locked up in a cell..."
"You were a prisoner?" He shrugged at my reply,
"I-I don't know... All I remember was.. Waking up in that cell.." He said while pointing at a tall building, it didn't look like a prison to me, hm...
"For all I know... It was Dr. Money who kept me there.. For what purpose? God knows why..."
"Dr. Money?" I asked, curious about who he is, "Dr. Money... He.. He said he was the one who held me in there." He said while sighing, "I-I didn't do any crime.. If I remembered. I just woke up in there suddenly, not remembering what happened before..."
"You were kidnapped then?" Putting my hands behind my head in a comfortable position as I leaned against the wall, he seemed like a nice guy.
"Heh, I guess that works too."
We both laughed and continued talking, he always said that he dreamed of wanting to travel around the world like his friend "Salvadore", I told him that I travel around the world as a "Messenger" and he was astounded, always asking me questions on what the outside world looked like
"W-What does Victoria look like!? C-Can you tell me more!" He said eagerly, I guess he really liked my stories.
"Ehehe... Calm down! I'll tell you more... But I think it's better to tell you in a more suitable place."
He sighed in disappointment, was he... Pouting?!
"Hey, why are you giving me that look?" I asked sarcastically,
"I-I want to talk to you more... You remind me of.." He suddenly stopped
"Hmm? Who do I remind you of?"
He went silent for a second, I was worried I said the wrong thing, but he quickly answered back, "ah.. I'm sorry but... Can we not talk about this..?" He said with a tinge of sadness in his tone
"Oh... Sorry.."
"No no... It's fine... It's just nice to talk to someone again after all that time in prison..."
"Weren't you lonely? Staying all that time in that cell?"
"I.. People.. My friends, they send me letters to me when I was locked up."
I listened intently
"But... I didn't respond to any single one of them..."
"You didn't write back to them?" I curiously asked, which was quickly answered by him
"No I... I couldn't. Dr. Money he... He wouldn't let me respond, I was stuck in that cell w-without any way of-"
He was crying. Tears formed in his eyes.
"H-Hey, are you okay..? Your kind of tearing up..." I said to him with a worried tone
"I.. I-I can't take it anymore... He.. He let them die. I-I couldn't save any of them... It was.. All my fault..." Tears started falling from him as he covered his face with his hand
"I.. Sniffle ..I just want to talk to them again.."
"I... I missed them Mostima."
"I really do..."
