Explaining things to Zarya is a landmine! How do I know why is it like that! And stop asking me philosophical questions!
gasp gasp
"And that concludes our lecture, please refer to Gugel-sensei if you need more study material."
"Who is Gugel-sensei?"
"Ah, do you have a phone?"
Zarya cutely tilts her head.
Ughhh how can I forget the only thing that makes us humans! Social connections!
"Wait a moment!"
I said that and rushed to my room to find an older model phone. Father always gave me the latest and newest model so it's not a big deal for me.
"Here you go!"
I said as I handed her a phone which was purple in color like Zarya's hair.
"You can learn on how to operate this yourself, and now I think it's time for bed! "
shake shake
Eh? Why is Zarya shaking all of a sudden?
"Eh… um…. Do you not want to sleep?"
"... Zarya wants to sleep herself, but Zarya is also afraid."
… well Zarya is one blunt kid huh.
"Hmmm… I know, We'll sleep together in one room, but we can have a separate bed, I think I have a spare futon somewhere!"
And… she stopped shaking, aww what a cute kid!
"Thanks Sister!"
As she beamed into a smile. And there goes my heart.
[Psi, come in, this is Sigma, there's an infernal portal opening north east of you, 25 km out, can you provide support over.]
My ear piercing suddenly vibrates as I heard Councilor Sigma's voice.
[I'll be there as soon as possible]
"Ummm Zarya, I think you should watch a movie first before going to bed! And wait for me, I just remember there's something I need to get at the convenience store."
"Umu. Zarya will watch movies, Zarya acknowledges the secret rendezvous.Sister's secret is safe. Zarya's mouth is shut!"
She even gave me a thumbs up! DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT A SECRET RENDEZVOUS IS ?

[Galactic Guardian Psi Reporting I'm 2km away from the reported position, anybody copy?]
[Lambda here, hard copy. over.]
[Rho here, read you loud and clear. over]
[Ok. rendezvous at my location. We will engage together. Over and out.]
[Roger] x 2
The area is apparently in an ocean, Ugh. if the enemy has high mobility in the water we'll be in trouble.
[Psi reporting, the location seems to be by the coast, we are not equipped to deal with underwater enemies, I repeat we are not equipped to deal with underwater deltas. If anyone else can provide backup it will be much appreciated. over.]
[Psi, Sigma speaking, there's a few portal openings and we're stretched thin, I will be providing backup when I finish in my end, over. ]
Hmmm this sounds bad.
"Psi!"x2
"Rho! Lamda!"
"What's the situation?"
Rho, wearing a flaming red Eastern inspired armor, on top of our standard operation armor is probably expecting a hard fight. But sadly I'm not sure how to break the news to him… even his flaming spear is exciting.
"Are you hurt, you seem to be deep in thought? Are you ok PSI?"
Lambda, wearing a skirt to battle carrying a gigantic battleax with yellow outline. I can see quakes forming in the vicinity of the ax, it seems that everyone's ready for a good fight…
I shook my head a bit.
"I'm ok guys, it's just I'm just in thought. Everyone else is occupied with different portals, and we're currently stretched thin."
I told them that basically we need to hold on no matter what happens.
"Ah, isn't that just any other tuesday? Let's finish this fast, I still have to help my old man at the restaurant!"
"It's not like there's any customers that are lining up!"
"Argh… you sure know how to kick a man when he's downed lambda."
"So where's the portal anyway? I didn't see anything Psi, did Councilor Sigma send us a bad coordinate?"
Ah it seems lambda did notice.
"Ah, for that the coordinates are correct, it's just that it's… below us."
"Huh? You meant underwater?"
"Yep."
The flaming spear suddenly extinguished itself, as the burning armor also lost its energy as if it's drowned in disappointment.
"Hey don't be like that [Kelvin], we can provide backup! We're gentlemens, how can we let the girls have all the fun!"
"Tch, listen to that [Richter], the flaming boy wanted to fight. But too bad it's underwater, let show them what we can do."
Ah, these two hot heads.
"Rho, you'll be on backup above sea level, Lambda on me, we can go all out since it's nowhere near civilization."
"OH I like the sound of that! Hear that monkey boy? We actually get to smash things!"
I turned towards [Plato], my quarterstaff, as it shines pink.
I'm glad I ready my weapon as moments later, swarm of demonic fishes came out of the portal, before it closed. I sense a bit over 50.
"Permission to let loose?"
"Granted."
"Oh yeah! Let's go [Richter]!"
Lamda jumps off the cliff as she swung her ax downwards to the ocean.
BOOM
The ocean split apart. Sending all of the demons airborne
Whistle
"Lambda sure knows her stuff. Hey leader, when's my turn?"
"Ready up."
I jumped off the cliff following Lambda, a magical circle appears below me as passing it allows me to float.
With the energy gathered in my staff, it manages to encompass a huge area.
"[Gravity Well]!"
I casted a spell as it gathers all the demons into one sphere, as even water is pulled, resulting in a transparent liquid prison that houses 50 odd demonic fishes.
"RHO! NOW!"
"Thought you'll never ask. [Kelvin] Obliterate!"
It seems that Rho did charge up, and as soon as I gave the signal , a crimson beam of pure destructive energy blasts forward obliterating my sphere and all its prisoners.
… or so I thought. It seems that the energy beam didn't kill the prisoners but instead it broke my water prison.
"[Richter] 2nd form!"
Suddenly a strong wave of energy is fired off from below me, it manages to pierce through the majority of the demons, the pierced demons shriek painfully before falling down.
"Good job Lambda."
I said as I saw lambda sending swordbeams towards the gathered demons, but some of them are trying to run away.
"[Plato] Orbit."
I feel a magnetic field gathered around me as anything remotely magnetic is pulled towards me including the blood of the demons.
"Take off."
The blood turned into sharp projectiles as it is sent back to the demons, like a .50 cal bullet, it leaves holes in the demon's bodies.
stab stab
There's also a melee fight going on below me and above me as it seems that there's demons that are capable of flight.
I'll provide support then.
"[Plato] Reactor mode."
My quarter-staff turned into a pair of mechanical wings.
It seems that Rho can handle himself as they're fighting airborne, but Lambda may need my help, so I quickly dived onto the ocean.
The demons here are mostly low leveled ones. My mechanical wings have the added function of shooting hyper pressurized water, so it makes a good propeller if nothing else.
It turned into melee combat as it's not efficient to cast spells under the water, where it's impossible for me to create a vocal component.
A shark like demon came from my side, I dashed sideways as I use my wing to cut off a part of it's soft underbelly.
I made eye contact with Lambda as I gave her a sign to use an AOE.
She started spinning her hammer immediately, as suddenly a whirlpool is formed with her in the center. I floated to its center and extended my wings, turning it into a pseudo blending machine.

[This is Sigma come in. What's the situation, over.]
[Councilor Sigma, this is Psi, we're cleaning up the strangers, over.]
[Acknowledged. Begin the cleanup process, I'm sending the support crew over to collect, and finish up the area. Over and out. ]
"We kick ass now, don't we?"
"We could've finished sooner if someone didn't screw up!"
Well that's true. I said that in my heart.
"Enough Lambda. Rho. We learn everything everyday, And I believe you'll be hitting the training center Rho?"
"Ugh. Although I hate to admit it I probably will."
"Good. Lambda, Rho, let's get back. We still have school tomorrow"
"Oh yeah."
"Oh right."
"We're saving the world and all, but we still have to go to school…."
Well he does have a point.
"Don't complain Rho, me and Psi smelt like rotten fish blood. It's gonna take forever for this to wash off. Especially our hair!"
This is the struggle that only a Mahou Shoujo knows!

"Fishy smell confirmed, Zarya conclude Sister's rendezvous is a success."
