*Starfire's Pov*
[ Host, I can't believe you kidnapped the female lead!]
'I didn't exactly kidnap her, I just knocked her unconscious and brought her with me without her knowledge~'
[ Host, that is the definition of kidnap ;-;]
'Really?! I had no idea~'
{ Host is so annoying when she behaves like she is innocent -_-}
I giggled happily as I dropped the unconscious Shirley on a chair I found in this building.
I got bored of waiting and stole the female lead since most female leads are connected to the cause of the apocalypse. Little que's physical body followed me too since Kyle may kill him without me being there.
[ Host, your main mission is to keep Kyle safe and you are going against that]
'I am not. I gave Kyle that life saving pill for him to use if he gets into trouble and his life is in danger'
[ That even annoys me more, what if he was infected before he takes it? Only his mind will be retained and he will become one of the most powerful zombie which will be bad if he loses control over his urges to eat humans. Also, he might not even take it, thinking that you were joking!]
'Calm down little que, you are so dramatic. Number 1, even if he loses control, he will still be powerful since the pill would heal his body and make him more powerful so he will still be safe. Whether he goes on a rampage isn't my problem since my mission is just to keep him safe, plus I trust the strength of his mind. Number 2, even if he thinks I was joking, he will still use it since he wants to take the last reminder of his sister with him, didn't you notice he loves his sister so much? If he takes it, he will be safe so my mission is still accomplished. Do you have anything to add?'
[... Nothing host]
{Why does my host have to be so smart?!}
Little que huffed in annoyance as he sat on the bed, not facing me.
I laughed at his silly antics and turned to face Shirely.
We are in another building that is very far from Kyle and the male lead's group.
Little que seemed to have thought of something and turned to face me.
[ Host, what about the male lead's life? Shirley hasn't helped him yet and if she isn't back by the time of the attack, Ashton's life will be in danger and he might die. If he dies, the world might collapse since he is the main lead and we would be thrown out of this world whether we have completed the missions or not]
'I know, hopefully we would be done with the mission and bring her back, if not, well, maybe Kyle will give the life saving pill to Ashton and he will be saved. The problem is that Kyle won't want to let go of his sister's gift~'
[ Host, that is a bad thing. Let's just hope for the best... Host, did you remember that Shirley could just escape into her space?]
'Yep, I know that. I have a control measure for that~'
[ What control measure?]
'Well, for one, if she is holding someone when she enters, the person will follow her and since she doesn't completely know all the secrets of her space, she is weak. Also, she can't bring a building or something installed deep into the earth into her space without first removing it. That's why I tied a rope from her hand to the building, if she wants to enter, she would be stopped and won't understand why she couldn't enter, which would give us an upper hand~'
[ Host, how you thought of everything is almost scary]
'Little que, won't you talk with your physical mouth? After all, if we are in the midst of people and you are always mute...'
[ I will, but if it is about the missions, then I won't because I don't want others to figure it out and also so that I don't have to alter too much of the real Fiona's memory when she comes back]
'So you won't say it is because of the world's consciousness?~'
[ No, I am too powerful for the world's consciousness to detect, it is only when something drastic occurs that it can detect us]
I nodded my head and went towards the bed to carry him.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" He asked flustered as I twirled him around.
"You are too fun and cute to tease, I couldn't resist~' I cooed and sat down with him on my laps.
"Hey, stop that! You are messing my hair!" He said angrily as I ruffled his hair playfully.
"Wow! So your hair can still be messed up?! With how your hair is normally, it looks messed up~" I said dramatically as I poked his cheeks.
He huffed and turned away from my face before looking back at me.
"Shirley is waking up" He informed me as I dropped him on the bed.
"About time~" I said smiling.
[ Wait! What are you going to tell her? Don't forget about the real Fiona's life, it would be weird if she just kidnapped someone for no reason]
'Don't worry, I have thought it out'
"Huh... What happened? Where am I? Fiona? Why are you here? And why am I tied up?!" Shirley exclaimed surprised and scared at the same time.
I put on my most sympathetic and concerned face as I faced her.
"I am not exactly sure, I saw you here and decided to help. I don't even know where Kyle and the others are, so I think it is best we stick together" I said using a scared but confident tone.
[ Host, you are the best at forming stories]
'Well, most of what I said are the truth. I saw her and decided to help the rest of the world by finding the cure. I don't know where Kyle and the others are since they might have moved from where I left them and Kyle may be looking around for me, I also haven't asked for their location from you so I am not sure where they are. And we both know it is best that Shirley and I stick together~'
[...]
{ Host is so good at manipulation}
"Thanks for coming for me Fiona, can you please free me from this restraint?" Shirley asked with misty eyes
"Ok, let me look for something to use" I said as I moved out of the room picking up the scissors I stored at the door.
'How many times has she tried to enter her space?'
[ 5 times host, she has given up now though]
'That girl even wanted to escape without me, so rude~'
[ Aren't you supposed to be angry?]
'Should I? I didn't know~'
I entered the room in as if in a hurry and went to help her cut the ropes.
"Thanks Fiona, you are a lifesaver" She said as she rubbed her wrists that are now free from the restraints.
"Let's try to find the others together" She said with a sweet smile as she held my hands.
'What is going on in her mind right now?'
[ She thinks her space is faulty and wants to stick with you since you are still powerful]
"Of course Shirley, we should stick together but we are also taking the little boy though" I said pointing to Little que who is still sitting on the bed.
She turned to him with a surprised face since she just saw him and showed an hesitant face before agreeing.
[ What is she showing an hesitant face for? She is even weaker than me and dares to berate me?! Humph!]
'Of course you are better than her, she just doesn't know~'
"So shall we get going?" Shirley asked, oblivious to our little discussion.
"Of course" I said with a warm smile thinking of what will happen soon.
