Robin asked Essence "Why did you close that thing?" "Oh!" Essence went with the flow and did the most heroic think he could think of and closed the Laptop even though he needed it. He scratched his head and then opened his laptop again. There he saw someone has messaged him. Someone he he did not expect too. It was Raven. A person he thought was long gone away form his life but now he faced her again. He was happy and shocked at the same time. He did not speak any words. Robin asked. "Are you OK Essence? You seem to be lost in thought. May I know the reason why?" Essence still staring the screen said "It's Reven....." Robin angrily replied "I can see her name too. I mean who is it?" Essence was not annoyed, not even a single bit. He was just staring at the screen. Robin was again about to speak but then Essence spoke "She is number 3 of our team." Robin questioned "So u decided it on your own? What about her? Does she want to participate in this?" Essence answered "She will. She should." Robin was not happy with Essence just forcing people in this. It's going to be a not so pleasant that even the strong willed might crumble. Still Robin added " I can't allow you to just add someone without their consent" Essence spoke "Ok then!" And started to type on his laptop "Hey Raven. It's been a long time Hru?" Robin is still skeptical of the Hru. He thinks it's a spell that Essence uses to hypnotize people to join the team. Then Raven types "Hey, its been a long time. I'm good Hbu?" When Essence read these words, he felt... happy. It's been a while he thought and started typing. "I am best. Good to know your are fine." Essence looks at Robin and again looks at the screen to type "Hey Raven do you believe in Fate?"
Now we see Herb. He look confused at what he has taken part in, he goes "Should I have rejected Essence's offer? Like if the world is really going to end, who is me, how can change the course of the end... well I guess it's better than dieing to m-
We are back to Essence and we see Raven type "What? You want me to prepare weapons? For the.... light out which is going to happen on the new year? It's not like I am going to kill tho" Essence replied "What if others want to? That's the reason I want you to prepare weapons. Also tell your family and people you want to protect this or try tp gather them in one place. Helps yk" Raven replies "Ok..... not the thing I expected after so much time... Anyways have a good day. Also I will remember to do as you said. Bye." And she goes offline. Essence takes a while to rest after lieing to her about the thing and makes up stuff right there. Then he goes to Kibo and asks him about the others and Kibo has prepared Sutairu, Cinder and then he saw a name he least expected. Mikaeel the one who does not have a good relation with Essence. Robin argues "Do you want an enemy in your trustful people? That might be the reason of your down fall." Essence answers " Nah! He is my enemy, that's why I trust him." Robin did not say a word and continued observing. Then Essence looked at members list and saw that one more person is needed. He was trying to think of people but then he saw his friend who he calls sister, Muriel. A person he believed is too soft for the task. He was going to scroll over her name when suddenly he receives a message form her. Essence was taken a back due to the coincidence but still opend her chat. She typed "Hey Essence! Hru? Not online in weeks ? You busy?" Essence texted "Hey Muriel. Yea I was out. Why you ask out of the blue?" Muriel replied "Idk, I felt like you needed me. So I came online to check on you. Do you need me or any sort of help?" Essence went silent. Robin looks at Essence dead in the eyes. Essence gives out a small smile. He types "You really are special Muriel." Muriel replies "Really! you actually needed me?" Essence responds in the positive. Muriel starts laughing in happiness. But then Essence types "Muriel, the things I am about to tell you, might steal your smile. Do you believe in Migic?
We skip to see Kibo, feeding his cat some new catfood. He was thinking did he make the right choice choosing the right people? Why even is he doing this? Is the world really going to end like Essence says? Then his cat jumps on his arm. He continues feeding the cat ignoring the doubts and plans to go according to how Essence said it. He still feels bad about lieing to the 3 of them, but he overcomes the bad feeling by saying. "At least they won't end up dead in an instant."
Back to Essence. He told Muriel about the truth. Muriel also did not believe him trying her hardest to not offend hi but also saying to stop day dreaming. Finally She agreed and said "Ok. I will save people form monsters and fight back and I totally believe you. Still plz get a check-up. Also I will wait for you. Ok?" Essence answers in the positive. Muriel says "You need a checkup asap. Be safe. Bye and I will remember the stuff....yea Bye!" Essence laughed at the silliness . His laughter slowly became smaller and smaller till he stopped laughing. He looks at the screen for a little time then closes it. Robin watches his actions form afar. Essence walks out of the house and and says
"We are prepared. Bring it on!"
