[ ]: If I told you your fate, would you believe it?
[FrostFang]: No.
[ ]: Why?
[FrostFang]: Things like fate, destiny, doesn't surprise me rather I think of it as a resulting effect.
[ ]: Resulting effect?
[FrostFang]: You know, like if you can read someone's future doesn't exactly mean it's going to happen. Instead, it's more of deciding a path for one to take. As a fact, the person is left with a choice to follow or not making it a result from someone's decisions. Though, it's not like I'm one to talk about it, 'cause most people find fortune telling looking at one's future.
[ ]: Haaa... You surely know a lot.
[FrostFang]: Heehee... It's just a random thought... It's not like I know everything.
[Press 'X' to continue]
[FrostFang]: Anyways, let's continue the game.
[ ]: OK.
[Welcome to Blade arts!]
[Please select your character!]
————————————————————————
Thump!
Suddenly bumping a stranger, what type of encounter could this possibly hold?
_New character staggered.
Blu notices and tries to help out.
"Sorry, are you okay?"
"Eeeehh... I'm completely sorry about, I didn't notice."
_Character bows.
'Black hair.'
It was pretty rare to find someone with black hair in this world, not like I was any different with white hair.
With a flustered face the black hair girl bows with her face gazing on to the train floors.
"Its okay".
It was pretty embarrassing to have someone bowing to you in a public train.
_Raising her head up Blu took to notice.
Wearing a military-type uniform resembling that of the academy... No, it was exactly the same, suited her thin frame very well, with a fully braided hair, a bloomed blossom and pretty feminine figure. It looked like she tried to hide her beauty behind a mask. She was pretty like a night flower basked under the full moon.
"More importantly, Are you injured anywhere?"
"I'm fine"
"A..."
_She walks away in a rush.
"Huh? Did I say something bad?"
_Olrd suddenly appears
"Hahaha..."
_Olrd hovers around Blu in laughter.
"Why are laughing Olrd?"
"No, no, I was just laughing at the way you got shot down, seconds after meeting a girl, it's pretty amusing."
"Sigh... I don't have your time."
Normally, that was what I would say in this situation but having an event where you suddenly meet a girl you just meet run really hits home.
Ahhha... Why didn't it turn out to be one of those events where you meet up and it suddenly turns in to a rom-com event.
And to top it, being laughter at butone of the his words really hit deep
_Olrd hovers round with a pondered look.
"By the way, how does this floating train works?"
"Hehehe... Finally someone asked."
"Apparently the train does exactly float on air it hovers around like a feather suspended in the air, using the principle of ether, its now able to work all day long even during night hours, hey, it's that awesome."
_Olrd nods as Blu continues.
"But, with that much of ether being used it still doesn't run out, is running on renewable ether. Hmmm... I see maybe that's because it uses natural ether and being one off the greatest among the 5 treasures given by the Gods, unlimited Ether its able to run..."
"You surely know a lot."
"Of course. Knowledge about the history of 1000 years is one of the important factors in being the a student of the ponifix academy."
"Yea.."
'Why is he not stopping?'
"Rumors have it that its actually a replica of the magical beast Lazar. Its a large dragon-class beast that roams over the Distinctively though I has an appearance resembling the dragons in the lost Era it known to depends on natural ether to sustain its firm therefore its an ethevore."
"Isn't that awesome."
_Blu glares with sparkling eyes
Unsurprisingly Olrd look at Blu with a somewhat different perspective, as he felt an aura of weirdness
"Y-yeah... Awesome..."
*Shhh!!*
[Please be seated as the floating train is soon to depart]
_Sound off the train taking of resonates as blue lines of nature ether could be seen from below the train.
"Well, we have 20 minutes to our destination so am taking a short nap. Bye."
_Olrd quickly disappears
"Ahh... Maybe I should take a short nap."
_Blu naps.
————————————————————————
"Huh... What's happening?"
_Blu glances through the window as to his surprise it was night.
"When did I fall asleep to the point it became night?"
"No, that's not possible I only took a nap for a few minutes, I woke up and now it's night. How is that possible when did a day become 5 minutes and not 24 hours".
Sigh...
"Looks like my life just changed from normal to abnormal just kidding."
"But, is something weird here, there's no stars and the moon gone. And."
*Sniff, sniff*
Doesn't it smell like thouts oil in here.
A fragrant oil made from a common plant, thouts. Its mostly used in making bug sprays for killing the annoying bugs and insects in household.
Known to be grown in the far east district. Another use of such plant is for creating sleeping gas for beast recreational activities.
Blu is immune to it due to his usual hunting in the dwells.
*Slide*
_Train door open as a large figure holding on to a large sack on top his shoulders.
[adgyb]
[Hey, Quiet down and stay still!]
[Aahhh... Release me this instant]
_Quickly, Blu hides between the seats as he heard the sound of the train door opening.
"Hey, Olrd, something bad is happening."
"Hey, Olrd..."
Oh... I forgot he only answers when he feels like it.
Either way, what's with this situation, why isn't anyone awake, and also what's with this feeling of uneasiness. It was pretty vague before but it's become apparent after a while.
Maybe it's the smoke every one
[I said release me this instant, don't you know who you talking to?]
[Of course. Little princess]
_Blu glances as he notices weird movements at the back.
Back at the train section, a hunky muscular guy dressed in black tight fits and a weird black mask, held on to a large sack. With the way the sack moved in a rough slithering manner, it was very obviously the sack had a human of average size stuffed in it.
[aaahhh]
Hearing the voice of a young girl from behind doesn't this situation seem familiar.
Hmm... I see this is the type of event where a young girl kidnapped by a group of bad guys and later get saved from a them and suddenly falls for her savior.
But, looking up at its ridiculously meaty body, I think it has to be twice my size what's worse was it was wearing armor.
It seems like this is a time for some heroic action. Now as your all wondering as to why a wierd character, a self proclaimed introvert, risk him face to go out of his way to save a girl, it would be between the lines of 'isn't that obvious'. Well that explains it all now moving on to the heroic situation.

_Blue particles appeared flickering as suspended in the air, slowly arranged to form characters displaying details.
Allows the user to live future time-line simulations of moments free of time.
Conditions: User must live a death experience.
So basically like a video game each time you die you go back to your save point
Special skills are abilities given to each person before being bought forth onto this world, they require special circumstances to activate them. All special abilities as no limit but depends on each person's state.
I didn't want to use it at time like this but unexpected situations call for unexpected circumstances, especially am facing an opponent of higher level.
_Blu looks back and chants
[Command System. Generate Target ID. Spirit ID. FF45]
Lv. 5?! You've got to be kidding me.
Right now that's what you might be thinking. Hahaha... Don't underestimate me, because I have a spirit.
[Pipu]
_A small white creature appeared with little blue spark glitching around it, hovering in the air.
"Isn't he just cute?"
[Pipu]
Spirit.
The divine weapon of the Gods.
The 4th treasures of given by the Gods since the fall.
Spirits are divine beings that grant humans a special VIP access to the system command.
Because of its rarity, most people with spirit are ranked higher in terms of strength.
Simply means I can one-shot kill any opponent without a spirit.
Am really greatful to Miss Necrotina for all her training, because all those times having to dive into cold water finally paid off. I finally feel like I was born for this moment.
[Command System. Generate spirit weapon.]
*Spark*
_Glistering blue sparks flickered slowly, taking on the form of a slightly strange sword.
Intantly, a fantasy-like sword appeared with a vague blue transparent blade that a resembling a blue dyed howlite.
[Pipu]
"Thanks Pi, hoo... I can't just get enough of your cuteness".
*Clang*
_Blu unsheaths his sword, taking a drawing stance,waiting patiently for his opponent to pass.
*Thud, Thud!*
_Instantly Blu rushed forth.
Passing over Blu's seat row, a flashing light stroke from the left side reaching up to the right pectoral muscles.
*Slash*
*Shluk*
_Fountain of blood spills out from the lower half of his opponent as the top half falls down slowly.
Blu sheaths his sword as he notices a clean slice.
As Blu attempts to see whats in the sack.
*Slash*
Huh?
_Blu's head rolls over as he notices his body standing still.
"A second guy... Where did he come from? Well it doesn't matter I'll try again."
Blu was unstartled by the sudden development as he closes his eyes slowly, this was not a new to Blu rather it was just an experience out of reality simply a phase.
'Come to think of it, wasn't I doomed the moment olrd surprisingly appeared with out a notice.
Sigh... Who am I to blame him, thats just his character instead why did I think of my situation now.
I think it's about time for...'
*Slash*
_Blu drops into a pool fully naked.
The usually sound, the very sound of being dropped in a pool darkness, freezing cold, at first it was scary by now its feels more normal.
Usually I would feel a bit of empty in the inside.
Hmm...
[Conditions have been met for use of
_A deep voice sounding like notifications off a game system.
[Do you wish to activate skill?]
[Yes/No]
"Yes"
[
Now, it looks like I have to fight against two bad guys now, the first guy is not much of a problem but the second might prove difficult, I didn't even notice him till is blade reached me.
Well since that how it goes I would have to find a way to draw him out before he reaches me, basically making my self bait.
[Subject would now be resurfaced back to save point]
[Please select a save point]
Hmm... It would be better if I resurfaced at back to the beginning, but it's going to be a risky gamble because if future time-lines interface. I see it best to resurface after I finish the first guy.
*Click*
***
*Shluk*
_Fountain of blood spills out from the lower half of his opponent as the top half falls down slowly.
Blu sheaths his sword as he notices a clean slice.
"I know you're hiding."
"How did he notice?"
_Shocked at his sudden discovery, sounds of his hesitant movement showed.
Immediately Blu took notice, as the second person position appears slightly and later disappeared.
"Back over the section door."
_Blu draws out his sword.
*Swish*
_Quickly he jumped over to the left flank landing on the top of the passengers' chair.
Dashing forth to the back train section, drawing his sword from the top left with his hands widely opened.
His movements were pretty fast as the second guy couldn't catch up his movements with his eyes.
*Slash*
_Before he could react Blu's sword struck slashing with blue lines that crossed from the left shoulder reaching the ground.
*Thump*
Delivering and instant one-shot kill, his body dropped to the ground with a vague sound of blood spilling on the floor.
"Well, that was pretty easy for a second time".
Remembering the feeling of each kill, Blu pondered 'Each time my blade stuck I couldn't fell a single thing, probably just my body acting up.'
[Pipu]
_Pi hovers around Blu.
*Slap... Slap!*
_Blu slapped his face with both palms in attempt to change his conviction.
"Now, not the time to brood of such thing its time for the hero to redeem his prize."
*Tear*
_Blu tears up the bag, as to his surprise he founds a little girl swelling up with tears in her eyes.
"Huh? Who is this?".
————————————————————————
Meanwhile, back at the [Sanctuary].
After, Miss Tina makes her nightly patrol round the [Sanctuary], she sits back at her room writing down the
_Suddenly a which seemed like a spy
"Ara... You surprised me there."
"Am sorry about that
"Ahh... How many times have I told you not to sneak up on me what are you going to do if you wake up the kids".
Sorry
"... So what are you doing here?"
"I apologize for my rudeness, but I'm here to delay your request."
"I see it seems like Blu have made it out of Area 02 district successfully."
"But, are you sure about that master"
"Huh? About what?"
"The boy [Blu],
"It seems that the power bestowed to him is much of a danger to the [Order] and letting him go might be of great cause... "
_Miss Tina glares intensely
"And... Is there a problem with that"
"No, I'm just curious as to why you did such a thing"
"Hmm... It just seemed fun."
"Huh?"
Shocked as what could be seen from Miss Tina was a surprisingly different face from her normal.
What could be behind this misterious look?
