Ashley yawn, opening her mouth widely, stretching her hands, "Close your mouth. You want flies to go in your mouth?" Zeolite ask raising one of his eyebrows. "Yeah, sorry. I'm going to the sleeper room." Ashley said standing up and walks away. "Where did Ashley go?" Celine ask who just arrived holding two canned drinks, she gives one of them to Hector. "Thank you!" Hector said happily, "sleeper room." Zeolite answers Celine's questions. "Oh okay." Celine said sitting down beside Theresa.
"Here's the money!" Hector said giving her 2.000 shards. "But it costs 1.000 shards!" Celine said proceeding to return 1.000 shards to him, "I insist. Think of that as my gratitude for buying me this!" Hector grins, returning the 1.000 shards back to her. "I can't deny this, am I?" Celine sigh in defeat, "Of course you can't!" Hector said in victory.
"I need another view…I'll be right back." Theresa said walking away with her book, "Yeah see you!" Hector grins waving his hands, "Hector, Arkus, remember something? Before we went here?" Zeolite ask didn't even bother looking up from his book, "dunno. What is it?" Hector ask. "Shion words." Zeolite said visible terror on his eyes.
Sudden realization hits Hector and Arkus like a truck that sends the protagonist to another world. "W-What should we do?! He'll be very mad!" Hector said panicking, as Arkus just stood on Hector's shoulder froze, unable to says anything. "Tell him. But I'm not gonna do it. Think of it as the punishment for losing the Chess match." Zeolite said handing him his communication device.
"Ugh, I hate you." Hector muttered glaring at him, "what's wrong? Why'd you guys look scared?" Celine asks tilting her head. "I'm not scared." Zeolite said declining the fact. "You're visibly scared Emo boy, just admit it!" Hector grins teasing him, "Just hurry up and tell him." Zeolite said glaring at him. "Fine, fine!" Hector said in defeat.
"H-Hello! S-Shion!" Hector stuttered, sweats run down his forehead, "Hello Hector. Why do you call at this hours, it's like 10 PM here?" Shion ask, his voice filled with the intent to kill. "U-Uhm…W-We're not going home f-for 2 or 3 days! U-Uh so…don't make foods for us!" Hector said nervously, "Thank god. I was waiting for you guys to realize. I already know that you two are going on a trip." Shion chuckle, "Eh? You're not mad?" Hector ask confused.
"No, of course not! I'm honestly happy that I don't have to cook three breakfasts and dinner!" Shion laugh, "Ah I see." Hector nod in understanding. "Just to make sure. Where's Zeolite?" Shion ask, "Yo, right beside Hector." Zeolite said acting cool. "Good. Then. Have a good day!" Shion said before hanging up.
"God, that makes me so nervous!" Hector sigh in relief plopping himself to the chair. "Is that Shion?" Celine ask, "Yea. Our dorm mate." Zeolite said, "You know him?" Hector ask giving the communication device back to him. "Of course! He's very kind! He always helps me with my struggles!" Celine smiles, it's already clear how much gratitude she is showing. "Mhm! Yes he is! But…he can be very scary sometimes…" Hector said dead looks on his face.
Hector's stomach grumbles, "I'm hungry. Be right back!" Hector said standing up, "Count me in!" Arkus said, "yeah, yeah." Hector said walking away to head to food cart.
Celine put her head on the table using her arms as a pillow, "You can go to the sleeper room if you're tired." Zeolite said while reading his book, "Nah…I'm honestly pretty curious about this girl that I meet on the foods cart." Celine said her voice a little muffled because of her arms. "Hm? A girl? What's with the girl?" Zeolite ask looking up from his book, "Somehow. She look really similar to you." Celine said remembering how she looks.
Zeolite eyes widened, "Is she short?" He ask closing his book in sudden interest, "How did you know? Well yea, she is." Celine reply doesn't have a clue why he knows. "Hair color, eyes color." Zeolite said with a demanding tone. "Uhh…Black as yours, Emerald green as yours…" Celine said completely confused with his sudden act.
"…She's alive. I'll be right back." Zeolite said hurriedly running off, "what? Wait!" Celine yelled, she didn't really catch the first words. "What's with him?" Celine muttered leaning onto the chair. She closes her eyes until someone speaks, "Hey there! What are you doing all alone?" A man ask grinning, he has red hair, a brown eyes, he's wearing a black crop high neck tank top, with two katanas on his back, a black pants, and a red cloth tied around his hips.
"my friends left me here…" Celine reply closing her eyes again, "you got some friends? I even come here alone!" The man said scratching his head, "You're alone? That's must be sad." Celine said pitying him, "It's not a big deal! Say, are you from Fiery Spirit?" He ask looking at her guild pin.
"Yes, I am." Celine nods, "Cool! I actually finding for a guild that suits me the most." He said, "can I sit here for a while? Oh! Pardon me. My name is Leon! Leon Hansford!" He grins offering her a handshake, "ah, nice to meet you, my name is Celine Apocalypse!" Celine smiles accepting his handshake. "You may sit here Mister Hansford." She said smiling.
"Don't call me Mister, that sounds old! Leon is fine! And thank you!" Leon said sitting down, "What are you doing here on the train, Leon?" Celine ask curious, "I'm heading to Rivertown! I heard it's relaxing there! But I might give Kenryoku a visit later." Leon grins telling her where is his destination. "Well, me and my friends are heading to Flower Village!" Celine said. "Ooh, Flower Village! Nice destination!" Leon said chuckling. The two conversation goes on about 30 minutes.
"I'm so full!" Hector said happily rubbing his stomach. "So delicious." Arkus said in satisfy beside him, as a butler sweatdrops at the two. "Here's the bill. Sir? Oh…" The butler said when noticing the two is asleep.
"Where is she?" Zeolite muttered looking around the cart. He has walk around a couple of carts to find someone. Suddenly he feels dizzy. "My head…" He mumbles leaning to the wall behind him. He feels the urge to close his eyes. "Not yet…" He muttered trying to keep his eyes wide open. But ended up falling asleep.
"I'm feeling sleepy…" Theresa yawned closing her book, "I should go to the sleeper room first…" She mumbles opening the caboose door, but she was beaten by her sleep urges. And ended up sleeping there.
