Chapter 11 - Chapter 11: Reset

Master: "Yooooouuuu have saved Ms. Arias from the impending danger of Hayden."

Master: "who surely would have attacked the castle after the Inn."

Ford looked around. Nothing looked out of the ordinary. He was surprised to have reset a full week.

Normally his reset points were set to a day or an hour in the past.

Ford looked at the master, smiled and said-

Ford: "doesn't that mean I should get a reward?"

Master: "Annnnyyyything you desire!"

Ford: "Well, in that case..."

Just then, Ford looked straight ahead, stood out of his chair, smiled and said-

Ford: "hire me to work here!"

Master: "As you wiiiiiiiiish. Get him fitted in a uniform, would you?"

Maid: "Of course Master"

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Upon entering the closet, None of the uniforms fit Ford, as usual.

Ford laughed and said-

Ford: "None of the uniforms fit me.."

Maid: "We'll have to sew one for you then."

Ford: "Alright! I'm ready! Take my measurements! A man like me can withstand any awkwardness!"

Instead of the Maid taking his measurements, the events seemed to have changed.

Instead the maid said-

Maid: "That won't be necessary right now."

Ford was surprised to see the sudden change in events.

Ford would continue to his bedroom

Ford: "This isn't going how I expected.."

The master suddenly interrupted-

Master: "you'll find that nooooothing goes as you expect them to Foooooorrrrrrd."

Ford: "Woah, don't creep up on me like that!"

The master didn't respond, and instead would give a slight smirk at Ford.

Ford: "what do you want"

The master smiled and said-

Master: "Whyyyyyy that's nooooo way to speak to meeee"

Suddenly, the Masters face went blank, and with a bland tone, he said-

Master: "I was hoping to speak to you privately in the meeting room. I plan on telling you before anyone else.."

Ford was shocked, the course of events is really changing in this loop.

Ford: "about what?"

Master: "I'll tell yooooouuuu in the meeeeeting"

The master turned, and started walking in the other direction.

As he was walking, he said-

Master: "Meeeeeet me in an hooooouuuuurrrr"

Ford wouldn't respond, and would head up the stairs to Rosey's room.

While walking to the stairs, he ran into the Maid, who said-

Maid: "I should take your measurements now."

Ford: "Oh yeah, sure.."

Ford stood with his arms out wide while the Maid proceeded to take his measurements for the new uniform.

After the measurements were complete, he would start heading to Rosey's room again.

While walking up the stairs, Ford would proceed to feel scared.

Ford: "What's going on?"

Suddenly, everything in Ford's mind went blank. He suddenly felt extremely light headed, and fainted.

He woke up 10 minutes later, on the same staircase.

What woke him up?

He got back up, and continued walking to Rosey's room. He felt more and more uneasy as he continued walking to her door.

Ford: "what's wrong with me?!"

Ford: "who or what woke me up?"

Ford: "Why did I faint in the first place?"

Upon arriving to Rosey's door, Ford started shaking.

He slowly moved his hand to the door knob, turned it, and opened the door-

Ford: "Rosey...."

Rosey looked up at Ford, and actually spoke-

Rosey: "Why do you look so frightened?"

Ford was surprised to hear Rosey speak to him so soon. Normally it would be another week before she said anything to him.

Rosey: "Well?"

Rosey sighed, and said-

Rosey: "just not going to respond, huh?"

Ford, surprised, said-

Ford: "oh sorry. I'm surprised you're speaking to me so soon."

Rosey: "What do you mean 'So soon'??"

Ford: "nothing..."

Ford turned around, and said-

Ford: "I should get going now..."

Rosey: "huh? Okay"

Ford walked back down the stairs.

Upon arriving at the bottom, he would run into Arias-

Arias: "Ford? Are you okay?"

Ford looked up at Arias and said-

Ford: "yeah I'm fine..."

Ford said that in a blank tone.

Arias: "Are you sure? You sound confused..."

Just then, Ford had snapped out of it.

He smiled at Arias, and said-

Ford: "Sorry! I'm completely fine, fair lady!"

Arias sighed, and said-

Arias: "good..."

Ford turned to Arias, and said-

Ford: "I should get going now! I have a meeting with the master!"

Arias: "Okay!"

Arias: "Also, please don't call me fair lady!"

Ford: "didn't hear you, bye!"

Ford had actually heard what Arias had said, but he didn't listen.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Upon heading to the meeting room, the Master greeted Ford.

Master: "hellooooooo, Ford!"

Ford looked at the Master, and said-

Ford: "You called me in here, what do you need?"

Master: "Don't like small taaaaaaallllllk, huh?"

The master ushered Ford to sit down, so he did. The meeting then started.

Ford was shocked to hear what the master said-

Master: "straaaange movement was detected in the forest..."

Ford was confused. Why would he tell him this so soon? And why only him?

No one else was at the meeting. The Master had scheduled to have a private meeting with Ford.

Ford: "why are you only telling me this??"

Master: "Because I trust that you can stop the Invaders..."

Ford: "seriously?"

Nothing was going as Ford had expected-

First, Ford's measurements weren't taken right away.

And the Master had scheduled a private meeting with Ford.

And above all else, Why was the Master telling Ford about the forest Invaders so early? This was still a week before that initial meeting.

This loop wasn't making any sense to Ford.
