Ahmed :"My name is Ahmed Kitagawa a 23 years old, I'm a security guard at a famous restaurant and an ex Combat Medic Specialist, it have been 1 year since i became a security guard at this restaurant, the payment is good but the long job hours are getting to me".

Carrying his helmet he go out of the door, when he was about to walk to his bike he stopped when he heard the owner calling him

Owner: Goodnight Mr. Kitagawa see you tomorrow ( getting closer to him) maybe we should have dinner together what do you say?

Ahmed: "This woman is my boss Togomori Kanae , she have been trying this since i start working here, but i always refuse her, I'm not the type of man that do this type of relationships" sorry boss but i must say no.

Kanae:( Folding her arms and pouting) you always say no.

Ahmed: Sorry ma'am but i think it will be better if both of us got with someone our age.

Kanae: Hey I'm still very young.

Ahmed:Yeah you look young, no one will give you the age of 45 years old.

Kanae: ( Blushing from embarrassment) just go home and forget i said anything( walking away to her car) men these days don't know who to speak to women.

Ahmed:" Damn i dodged that pretty well"( looking at his watch) " it's almost 1AM it's getting late i need to get home"

He wore his helmet and got on his bike and started the engine and start his ride home.

While he was riding he saw rain drops on the glass of his helmet,he stopped the bike on the side of the road then he took off his helmet and faced the sky, closing his eyes he enjoyed the rain drops hitting his face, after taking a deep breath he wore his helmet again and continued his ride home.

Ahmed: "I think i need a goodnight of sleep" ( smiles) "yeah sleeping will be great"

He opened his house door and planed the keys on the small drawer, he then placed his umbrella on it hook then took off his shoes and his coat slowly he walked to his room and threw himself on the bed after a long day of work he was too tired mentally and physics.

Ahmed: Damn i'm too tired today...i think i pushed myself too hard this week.

His eye lids were getting heavy and slowly closing, then it was dark then flashing lights and weird sounds woke him up. when he got up he wiped the dole on his mouth and when he looked down on the room's floor he saw a red haired woman laying on the floor.

Mysterious woman: (moan in pain)

Her vision was blurry when she looked at the man she only saw a dark figure.

Mysterious woman: ( Reaching her hand) please help.

She said these words before she passed out, the young man acted quietly and took off her chest armor and start putting pressure on the wound, he then took off his shirt and wrapped it around the wound.

Ahmed: "Good that will stop the bleeding until i get bandages"

He said as he ran to the bathroom, when got there he opened the small drawer and took a first aid pack and a bottle of alcohol then he ran back to the woman and unwrapped his shirt from her wound he then start pouring alcohol on the wound and wiping the blood at the same time, when the alcohol entered the wound the woman screamed in pain before she went unconscious again. after he was done her wrapped a bandage around her torso and shoulder, then he took off the rest of her armor pieces and placed her on his bed.

Ahmed: "What happened? why is this woman here? should i call the cops" ( looking at his blooded hands) "no it will be a lot of troubles for me, her wound is not deep so i can take care of her."

Mysterious woman:(letting out soft moan of pain) please don't leave me alone.

Ahmed: I wonder what happened to her?

Ahmed went and took a shower after he finished he changed his clothes and slept on a futon on the living room.

after 20 hours.

Mysterious woman:(Opens her eyes) where am I ?

Mysterious woman:(Getting up) What is...this place...where am i?...(looking around and trying to get up) Ouch! my shoulder hurt!

Did someone brought me back home wait!

Mysterious woman: This not my room!...this is not my house! where am i!?

The woman looked around the room and saw her sword and armor at the desk on the corner of the room, she then got up from the bed and walked to wear her armor back, after stuggling for sometime she was able to put all the pieces and then she walked to the door, her hand was about to reach the door handle the door opened, she quickly backed away her eyes widened when she saw the man in front of her.

Mysterious woman: A BARBARIAN! ( pulling her sword) stay away from me or i wi-( dropping her sword and holding her shoulder)

Ahmed: Please don't move your wound is still fresh, and you are wearing your armor, come on take it off.

mysterious woman: W-why ( getting scared and backing away) what will you do to me? ( hugging her body) please I'm still young.( trying to pick the sword again) " my left hand is not strong as the right one but i have no other choice " ( lifting the sword with her left hand and pointing it at him) don't come any closer barbarian.

The man stood there with a plate of food on his hands looking at her without making a reaction.

Ahmed: You are really committed to the cosplay thing huh, can you put the sword down it's very sharp ( giving her the food) here eat you must be hungry.

Mysterious woman:(Looking at the food then gulping) i'm not hungry a-and i don't need your food

Ahmed: You need Nutrients. and you will heal quicker and can you smell that (smelling the food) it smells good...and you look hungry too.

Mysterious woman: ( Gulping on her saliva) No I'm not!

Ahmed: You are literally gulping on your saliva.

Mysterious woman: Wait those aren't my clothes...how did you...put...the bandage ( blushing) how could you do that to me!? you looked at my body.( covering her face) if my father found out...if everyone home found out i will never get married.

Ahmed: Well i had to, You we bleeding and if i didn't you will be dead and i will be in prison, and that's not a good outcome for me. eat while i clean your wounds again.

Mysterious woman: I'm sorry...i got scared of you...thank you for saving me. my name is Rubbia. Rubbia Lionheart

Ahmed: Where are you from anyway?

Rubbia: I'm from Skygate kingdom.

Ahmed: And were is that?

Rubbia:(Shocked) You don't know Skygate you're kidding right, you must be living under a rock if you don't know that place.

Ahmed: (Looking at her armor) so you're a real knight huh?

Rubbia: Yes i'm a knight the best female knight on my village actually.

Ahmed: Really how did you get defeated then?

Rubbia: The last thing i remember that i was fighting a group of orcs with my teem( gripping on the bed sheets) then...they out numbered us...my whole team ran away and left me there...i fought the best i could but... then i got hit by one of them on the shoulder...then...i was here...woke up on your bed.

Ahmed: Don't be sad, you will go back home, if there's a way to come here surly there's a way to go back.

Rubbia: Thank you, i will make sure that you will be rewarded.

Ahmed:(sigh) So you're from another world. i thought i was dreaming or exhaustion has took my mind.

Rubbia: I think that blade was covered with a drug, I'm glade that i was teleported here,( looking disgusted and uncomfortable) the things that they were going to do to me( tearing up then crying)

Ahmed: It's okay you're safe now and that's what matter, When you go back make sure to kill all of them okay.

Rubbia: Oh i forgot! can you bring me a potion bottle from the small bag on my armor it will make the wound heal faster.

Ahmed:( Getting up and walking to the armor) it must be this one (walking back to her) so you supposed to drink it or pour it on the wound.( giving it to her)

Rubbia:(Taking it) it work both ways but it's better if i drink it, It will clean my blood from the drug and heal my wound ( drinking it)it works so fast i think by tomorrow my shoulder will be in good condition.

Ahmed: Wow i wish we had those here.

Rubbia: This is one of the expensive ones it is also hard to obtain the ingredients.

Ahmed: So how do you plan to go back?

Rubbia: (Getting under the blanket) I don't know, but i will think of something,( blushing) pardon me but i must ask you a favor, can i stay here until i find a way to get home.

Ahmed: Sure.

Rubbia: ( Smiles while blushing)

Rubbia: Again thank you, you're really a savior, i can't thank you enough( smiles) it's nice to be able to meet good person like you.

Ahmed:( Smiles) You're welcome, now that you will be staying here you will have to get some clothes and other things, but don't worry just eat your food before it gets cold and rest for now, i will take care of everything ( standing up)i will come back after a hour, don't get out of the house or let anyone sees you or everyone will start asking me some uncomfortable questions.

Ahmed stood up and left Rubbia alone, she looked ones more around the room before she picked up the plate that was on the small drawer beside the bed and start eating it like it's here first meal in months.

Rubbia:" It's my first time having a good conversation with a man, not to mention he such a gentleman and very handsome wait! what am i thinking i just met him now, he said to not get out of the house or let anyone sees me, Rubbia he might be dangerous, maybe he's lying and this's an illusion i need to explore this place"

She finished eating her food and got up and went out of the bedroom, while she walked around the house she looked everywhere and start inspecting everything she see, when she saw the window she imminently ran to it and opened it, he eye widened when she saw the lights of the city and the tall buildings her eyes sparked she then opened the window and got her head out.

Rubbia:( Smiles) This is so magnificent ( looking at the opposite house window) why is that woman looking at me like that ( closing the window) maybe that is why Ahmed told me to not get out of the house, is she dangerous?( walking away and setting on the sofa) this feels very comfortable.

She saw a red apple on the coffee table an pick it up and start eating it, then she looked at the TV black screen with curiosity.

Rubbia: What is that.( getting closer) is this a black mirror ?

She then heard the sound of the front door being unlocked, and when it opened Ahmed got inside with a bag on his hand.

Ahmed: Oh you're here, here take this ( giving her the bag) it's few clothes i got for you.

Rubbia: (Taking the bag) Thank you for the gift( bowing) you really proved to be an ally, i'm sorry that i called a barbarian.

Ahmed: And why did you think that i'm one in the first place?

Rubbia: You know you're very tall and large man, but you don't have the traditional tattoos. now let not dwell too much into that, the city look amazing i have never saw anything like that even back home.

Rubbia: There a woman lo-

Then the both of them heard someone knocking on the door urgently.

Rubbia: It must be the woman from the other house she was giving me a death stare, should i get my sword just in case ?

Ahmed: There's no need for that:

Satou :Ahmed! open the door now! i saw her! who is she! come on open the door and tell me!( sound of a knife) i just want to talk to her.

Ahmed: Miss Satou just go home.

Satou: (Crying) I can't believe it after all that effort, a small redhaired woman comes and takes you just like that, what did she do to get you? i need to know her secret.

Ahmed: That small beautiful redhaired woman is only my friend she's my guest.

Satou:...Alright...i will go home...hey whatever your name is... don't try anything with him( walking away home)

Ahmed: Finally she( turning to Rubbia) went ho..me

Ahmed: Why are you so red?

Rubbia: B-b-beautiful?!

Ahmed: Relax i just told her that so she can leave.

Rubbia: Y-you think I'm beautiful?

Ahmed: You don't look at the mirror that often don't you.

Rubbia: Well it is the first time hearing it from a man, back home no man ever told me that, they actually avoid me.

Ahmed: You look very beautiful, you have a natural beauty i think that what makes you special, now go take a hot bath and change your clothes you will feel refreshed trust me, those clothes will fit you well, my sister was a cosplayer so she have a lot of those things.

Rubbia: Sorry for bothering you again but can i get more food? i'm still hungry.

Ahmed: Well you lost some blood, i will make you some food while you're in the bath, just be carful your wound is still new.

Rubbia: It's okay that potion works so fast, but it seems that what ever you poured on it cleaned it perfectly and allowed the potion to work better than expected, i think by tomorrow it will be as good as new.

Ahmed: I'm going to work i will come back in the next morning, i have a busy night, if you need more food you can find everything in the fridge.

Rubbia: And what is a fridge?

Ahmed: Here follow me

He then lead her to the kitchen, he stopped in front of the fridge and point it at it.

Ahmed: This thing is called fridge ( open the fridge).

Rubbia: Oh it is like a closet but you store food in it, it is very cold too. you have very amazing things in your house, it feels cozy too.

Ahmed: Now follow me i will show you where the bathroom is.

Rubbia: You have a bathroom as well?! you must be very rich.

Ahmed: Not exactly we're here ( open the bathroom door) after you my lady.

Rubbia: It's very white and clean, do you have maids taking care of the house?

Ahmed: Maids?! of course not, i just clean it myself.

Rubbia: Yeah i clean my own house too.

Ahmed: Here we are, wait until the bathtub is filled then turn off the water, here's a towel and you can use my champo, it for your hair. i will leave you now, i will be here late at night ( looking at his phone) around 3 AM.

Rubbia: What is that you are holding in your hand?

Ahmed: I will explain everything when we have time, goodbye.

Rubbia: (Waving her hand) goodbye.

After watching him leave through the door, she went inside the bathroom and closed the door, she took off her clothes and went inside the bathtub.

Rubbia: That is so satisfying ( holding the champo bottle) what is a champo, he said that it is for my hair( opening it and smelling it) it have good smell~.

around 3 AM:

Rubbia was setting on a chair looking through the window watching the city and again she saw Satou looking at her from the window, then she heard the sound of Ahmed motorcycle she covered her ears and looked down and watched him park the bike then unlocking and opening the house door.

Rubbia: Welcome home.

Ahmed: What the...you still awake.

Rubbia: I'm not sleepy and besides that woman is still looking at me, listen if she tried anything, i will have to fight her.

Ahmed: Enough about her, did you enjoy your time while i was away?

Rubbia:( Excited) The bath was so great! i feel so refreshed, sorry i ate most of your food.

Ahmed: It's okay, you're my guest it's my duty to provide you with anything (giving her a bag) here some sweets from the restaurant that i work in.

Rubbia:( Taking it) We can eat together if you want.

She took the sweets out of the bag and placed them on the table and start dividing them equally.

Rubbia: Here is you portion and this is mine.

Ahmed: You really eat a lot.

Rubbia: I might not look like it but i eat a lot but i don't get fat most things go to my bones and muscles.

Ahmed: That can't be true you are small and light as a feather.

Rubbia:( Pouting) I'm little taller than the average woman back home, but you're the one who's very large and tall but i bet that when i get better i will beat you in a fight.

Ahmed:( Laughing) Sure ( patting her head) come on go to sleep, i need some too (getting up and walking away) good night.

Rubbia:( smile) goodnight~
