"You are Caroline huh? Then I guess you came to take me in right?"
Floga asked, his whole face was covered with defeat
"I am but not for the reason you think"
Caroline told him
"Then what? execute me?"
Floga said ironically
"The UMP wants to hire you as an attack unit they can use for a mission, and I will inform you that with the crimes you have done you don't have any choice"
Caroline told him, she then released Floga from the chains and broke the mana zone
"Meet us tomorrow at the port, there is where we will all leave for a base of ours"
Caroline told him, she then opened the door of the roof and started walking down the stairs, Luck tried to follow Caroline but he was stopped by Floga
"How long have you interacting in the parallel world?"
"Why do you care?"
Luck replied to him, Luck then tried to leave but he was once again stopped
"She knew about this world too"
Floga said, Luck froze in place when he heard that
"I don't know who are you talking about..."
Luck told him
"Don't mess with me! I'm talking about Hope, she knew about the elements and mana too, she also must have been strong"
Floga said, Luck then charged at Floga without saying any words, He started punching the weakened Floga over and over again
"DON'T YOU EVER TALK ABOUT HER!"
Luck screamed as he hit him, Caroline then stopped his rampage by knocking him out
"I can't believe him!"
Caroline said with an angry tone, she then carried Luck all the way to his house, Floga and the others also left the school quickly before anyone spots them, and before he knew it Luck had woken up into the next day by the smell of fire, Luck then quickly ran to the kitchen, Caroline was there
"QUICKLY THROW WATER AT IT!!!"
Luck yelled in panic, Caroline then created a lot of water in order to extinguish it, the fire was put out but the house was flooded with water
"Caroline quickly get the electronics away from the water!"
Luck told her
"I will as for you, grab this"
Caroline said as she tossed a mop at Luck, the mop was conjured by her, Luck then started mopping the water out of the house and Caroline successfully secured all of the electronics, but there was one thing that couldn't be saved
"Caroline look what you have done! The furnace is completely destroyed, how am I supposed to cook now?"
Luck told her with a sad tone
"Come on now don't get depressed, I will fix it"
Caroline told him to comfort him
"You better! or else I'm kicking you out"
"Come on now you have seen my abilities, do you think that I can't fix a stupid furnace?"
Caroline said with a smug, she then extended her arm and a blue light came out of her hands, Luck could hear metals and plastics crashing with each other and magically moving, for a moment he thought that Caroline was actually fixing it, Caroline then stopped using her powers
"LUUUUCK! I don't know how to fix it, please don't kick me out!"
Caroline whined as she desperately hugged Luck
"Get off me! I will not kick you out, I was simply joking"
Luck told her, he was clearly annoyed
"Really?"
"Yea really! but you have to buy me a new one so I can be able to cook food"
Luck told her, Caroline looked disappointed but she agreed, she was the one that broke it in the first place, Luck and Caroline then packed their things and went to school, it was Friday so the 2 of them were looking forwards to the day to end so they can spend their weekend relaxing, after some minutes of walking they reached the school, Floga was waiting for them at the entrance, he had no sign of injuries on his face
"What does he want?"
Luck asked Caroline before getting close to Floga
"I guess we are going to find out soon"
Caroline replied
"The sin of pride and Luck, what a funny combination of individuals"
Floga said as he laughed
'What is all this sin of pride thing?'
Luck wondered but he figured that he could ask Caroline later
"Don't be so surprised because that's going to be your normal from now on, and either you like it or not you will work with us"
Caroline told him with a smile
"If a beautiful girl requests for my aid with such eager then how can I deny?"
Floga said, Caroline ignored him and walked inside the school, Luck remained behind with Floga
"What? you didn't get enough by punching me yesterday you fucker?"
Floga asked Luck with an aggressive tone
"From now on we have to work together, and we both know that we 2 can't do that for various reasons but I'm willing to try, I suggest you try too, not for me but for the greater good of all of us"
Luck told him with a serious look, he then walked into the school, he found Caroline sitting on top of their desk, she had a quite serious look
"What's the problem?"
Luck asked, Caroline then took out her phone and showed Luck a post of an islander with a cat the post said that this cat was her new cat, but after closer inspection, the cat was sunshine (from chapter 3)
"Oh sunshine found a home, that must be nice for her"
Luck said, Caroline was beyond confused
"Hey you said that those cats can't stay inside a house, and now you are okay with them being taken by someone?"
Caroline said with confusion
"Well to be honest I tell this to anyone that wants to take them in but I can't really restrict them from doing it, I mean I don't own the cats or something"
Luck replied, Caroline then left with an angry expression on her face
'Why is she so mad?'
Luck wondered, he then placed his backpack on the ground and placed his head on top of the desk, he tried to sleep a little before the classes begin
As Caroline was walking angrily in the schools halls he saw Destiny, she was still very sleepy, Caroline didn't want to talk to anyone right now so she used the element of illusion to make her self invisible, Destiny and Caroline passed by each other without noticing anything, Caroline then created a clone so she can accomplish her plan, the clone went inside the school to attend the classes, Caroline then flew to Luck's house she was still invisible, she took out her phone and once again looked at the photo of the cat, she closely inspected the house that was seen in the photo and she then closed her eyes and she created a huge field that surrounded the whole island, this was an ability that was commonly used to locate targets that don't use or are not good at controlling mana, after some time Caroline located the location of sunshine, Caroline created a mana zone and flew with an immaculate speed at the location of the cat, not even 2 seconds passed and Caroline arrived in front of the house that sunshine was held
"Don't worry little guy, I will free you"
Caroline said, she then created a mana zone and barged inside the house, the house was filled with familiar spring bears but their size was very small compared to the others from before, when Caroline tried to inspect the bears an attack was quickly directed at her, the attack came from a huge mutated brown cat, Caroline easily dodged the attack
"How did you figure out where I live?"
The woman that had posted the picture asked, Caroline chuckled
"Do you really think that a trash user of mana like you could have stayed hidden for such a long time without being caught?"
Caroline told her with a maniac-like smile, the woman was kind of scared seeing Caroline but she had her cat mutant to defend her so she felt safe
"Come on Brownie attack the bad lady"
said the woman, the cat tried to attack with a punch but Caroline easily blocked the attack, the strength of the attack was so great that the ground shattered, Caroline then grabbed the hand of the cat, the cat had a very hard time freeing itself
"What are you doing brownie? Don't tell me this little lady is holding you down?"
the woman told to the cat, she was clearly worried
"A weak guardian like that can't win against me"
Caroline told to the woman
"NONSENSE!!!"
The woman screamed, Caroline then chopped down the mutant cat with air slashes, the woman was very scared and surprised by what she saw
"What was that? nonsense? If you don't believe me I can show you more!"
Caroline told her with a scary smile, the woman then quickly went to her kitchen and grabbed a knife, she then tried to assault Caroline with the knife, Caroline allowed herself to get hit by the knife but as soon as the knife touched Caroline's skin it quickly snapped
"Your turn is over! now it's my turn"
Caroline said, the woman screamed from fear, Caroline then hit her with an incredible punch, the hit managed to shatter her teeth and broke the woman's nose, the woman also lost her consciousness
"Now that this is done I have to check on Sunshine"
Caroline said as she cleaned her hands from the blood, Caroline then ran up to the chairs that the house had, she saw sunshine on top of a bed, she then quickly ran at the cat to check if it was alright
'Thank god nothing's wrong with it'
Caroline thought, she then opened her phone to report the woman she beat to the UMP but before she could contact Kamira a punch that launched her through the wall of the house distracted her, Caroline landed outside the house with her phone in her hands, the thing that punched Caroline was not other from sunshine, it turned out that the woman managed to mutate it too, Caroline laughed from anger
"Turn out we have to get rid of you too sunshine"
She said as he was griping her hands, she ended up breaking her own phone from her anger, she then created a ball of air and channeled it for a long time, when the mutated sunshine tried to attack her she launched the ball at her, sunshine instantly disappeared, the attack was so powerful that it made sure that no remains of sunshine were ever found, the only thing that the attack didn't dispose of was the blood of sunshine
"Oh damn it, I smashed my phone"
Caroline said with an emotionless voice
'Now that I don't have a phone I will let my clone deal with it'
she then used the element of space to swap locations with her clone, surprisingly the first period had ended and Luck was still sleeping, the first subject was economy, it was something that didn't interest Luck so he didn't mind sleeping through it, the day then continued as if nothing happened
Once school ended Luck and Caroline were waiting at the port for Floga, Destiny was with them too
"Guys did you see the post of Lola, the sewer, she took Sunshine to her house, now Brownie will have company"
Destiny said
"Caroline showed it to me in the morning, I was a bit sad that sunshine was taken away because she was my favorite cat out of all but if it's Ms. Lola, then I guess I'm alright"
Luck told her
"Come on guys, it's just a cat, it's nothing to get sad over, also Luck you said it didn't belong to you so it was bound to happen"
Caroline replied with a smile
"I guess you are right, wait Caroline why are you tearing up?"
Luck asked her when he notice a single tear drop coming out of her right eye
"Oh it's nothing, something just got in my eye"
Caroline said as she scratched her eye
