I sat up immediately as I felt the world shift. not in the earth moving but as someone messed with reality to merge two worlds.
it was a gentle reality manipulation that I know can only be pulled off by Lady Nasha. I sighed and scanned the world for differences.
realization soon clicked in... she wanted me to prevent her untimely demise...
"bloody fucking hell" I cursed.
"Something the matter?" Hestia asked.
"tell me Hestia... how would you like to go and be someone's first customer at a concert?" I asked.
"Ooo, are we going out to be the first customer, we have to go now," Hestia said as her kindness was overflowing.
I chuckle and snapped my fingers and put on something nice and teleported us to the concert.
when we got there I bought us some snacks and then went to the concert. there wasn't anyone here except the guards so I and Hestia got a front-row seat.
"your tunning on your guitar is off," I told the guitarist.
"what would you know," the man said.
I chuckle "Twist the middle one to the right a bit more, string is two loose."
I felt Hestia gently slap my head "Quit ruining this."
"yes yes, Hestia." I chuckled playfully.
I continue to say here with Hestia. I was so committed that I pulled up two chairs and we sat down.
I wolf-whistled playfully and laughed as the idols began to be flustered.
"think they would mind if I play some music with them?" I asked.
"you can play music?" Hestia said stunned.
I smiled playfully and asked one of the idols if I could play and they looked stunned before they shrug.
"you guys have been here since we opened... it's only fair" the purple-haired girl said.
she had two beautiful star-shaped eyes and I found myself getting lost in them before shaking my head.
(if you know you know)
"sorry your eyes are remarkable... also I love your hair," I said.
"thank you," she said excitedly, "I love your white hair is it natural? also, you have cool eyes too it almost looks like a galaxy in them"
I chuckle at her enthusiasm and held out my hand "Alice Jackson"
she shook my hand "Hoshino ai" she said.
I picked up a guitar and began playing the song "Die for You" by Starset. the music was captivating and everyone including the guards swayed a little.
my voice sounded like a gentle breeze but it brought comfort as it drifted into the wind.
as I finished I softly smiled and wiped a tear from my eye and when I looked up I saw the idols looking at me stunned.
"ah sorry... it's just this song brings back memories" I said apologizing.
"that was amazing," Ai said as she grabbed my hand.
"if my brother was here the songs we could have down would have doubled since I can't do male voices as well," I said.
"it's true" Hestia yelled from a crowd.
I smiled softly at Hestia "... be careful with fame... it'll lead to unnecessary problems like stalkers and other creepy people"
now that there was a crowd of people here the group of idols played with more enthusiasm.
"What did you do," Hestia asked with curiosity in her eyes.
"... truth be told nothing... I believe you call her chaos, but she merged this world and another because she knew I would catch it. and I knew what she wanted, she wanted me to save her from an unfortunate situation" I said looking at Ai sadly.
"...and If lady Chaos did do it it would make sense no one on the godly side would know," Hestia said thoughtfully.
we continued watching them until the time for the show to end. I smiled and waved goodbye.
I drove us home and when I unlocked the door I hear her voice again.
"Alice?" I looked to my right and saw Ai unlocking the next-door apartment.
"ai?" I said genuinely surprised. I guess she did want me to prevent her fate.
"oh goody, she's our neighbor too," Hestia said giggling.
I chuckle. "if you're ever in trouble or need anything you're more than welcome to come over to our house and ask."
ai smiled and waved goodbye and we entered our house.
I entered the house and sighed. "there goes my plans for call of duty."
I began chuckling before I went to the kitchen to make some food. I made extra and walked next door and knocked.
ai opened the door and I handed her the plate.
"feel free to come over for dinner. since you live right next door. if you ever get in trouble bang on the wall and I'll come over guns a blazing" I wink playfully.
she didn't seem to get it, but she nodded her head and thanked me and I went back to my house.
"... I like her... she's nice," Hestia said.
"...yeah she is" I laughed.
