Nyla and Yukki's conversation continued for hours and before they knew it, nighttime had rolled in. "Looks like it's getting pretty late." Yukki mentions. "I should rest, father said it's important to get all eight hours!" Nyla says. Yukki nods. "I'm gonna go check how things are up front." Yukki says. Nyla nods to him and Yukki leaves the room.
He returns up front to see most of the soldiers also sleeping. "How long until we reach Mozam?" Yukki asks. The older man still awake and behind the wheel looks at him. "About a day, as long as we keep pace." He says, his fatigue heard in his voice. '
Yukki sits down and rests his eyes.
He wakes up to the sun slightly in the air. "I fell asleep?" He asks. Yukki begins stretching.
As he's stretching he's alarmed by someone yelling. "I see a flag!" He yells. They all look out the window and see three vessels riding for them. "Not good, we got adventurers, non friendly!" A woman yells out.
The roof opens up. "Get your arcane rifles and protect the crystia bulb, if it blows we're dead!" The older man yells. "Sir!" The soldiers quickly grab the rifles and climb up to the roof. Yukki goes to grab one. "Not you, you're not trained, and you need to be protecting Miss Nyla!" He yells as the vessel shakes from a blast. "Sir!" Yukki salutes and runs over to Nyla's room.
She's covering her head ducking under a table. "What is going on?!" Nyla asks frightened. Yukki runs over to her. "We're being attacked!" He yells. A hook is shot through the window sending glass flying everywhere. it latches onto the vessel and begins dragging it towards the adventurers.
Yukki looks out of the window and sees what looks like their boss standing on the roof. "Give up all your valuables, and everyone lives, fight back and it only gets worse!" He shouts at them.
"They must've been following us and waited until we got to the mountains!" Yukki says. The adventurers begin climbing across the hooks blocking the rifle shots. "Dammit there's too many of them!" A soldier shouts from the roof. The adventurers jump into the window and kick Yukki into a wall.
One slashes a sword at him, and Yukki quickly dodges. Yukki unsheathes his sword and stabs the adventurer thug in the arm. He drops his sword and Yukki slams his head into the wall and kicks him off the vessel. Another one much larger then the other slams Yukki into the ground.
Kaito is woken up inside of his box by all the trouble. "Five more minuets!" He groans. Nyla looks confused like she heard talking.
The man tries to stab Yukki and he moves his head. Nyla slams a vase on the man's head. He didn't even feel it, but he still turned to her. Yukki grabs the man and headbuts him and then flips him out of a window. A man with a Mace jumps on board.
Yukki goes for him. He swings the heavy mace and slams it into the ground. Shaking the entire vessel. Yukki struggles to hold himself up and the man shoulder charges him into the wall. Yukki punches him, the man just laughs it off and then drags Yukki across a table and then throws him into a wall.
The man laughs. "Boss told you it'd get worse." He mocks Yukki. The man raises the mace to hit Nyla. She covers her head, But all their attention turns to the box. Kaito comes from the box yawning. "What good sleep!" He happily says. Kaito looks around and notices he's in a devastated room. "Where am i?" He asks.
The large man charges after Kaito. Kaito reacts quickly and dodges him. The man swings his mace at Kaito's head. He dodges under it, and then kicks the man in the stomach.
The man winces and then tries to charge Kaito. Kaito smiles and then hip-tosses the man onto the ground. Kaito allows the man to get back up.
Nyla is watching the fight nervously.
The man shakes the mace and the head comes off attached to a chain. Kaito stretches his shoulders. The man swings the mace again and Kaito jumps back. He dodges attack after attack and the man gets angry. He swings down at Kaito again. Kaito jumps towards him this time and lands a knee to the mans chin dropping him.
Yukki looks at Kaito as he holds his side. "Who is this?!" He says amazed by Kaito's fighting talent.
Kaito reaches into the box and grabs his bag. He then notices Yukki and Nyla. "Hey, there any idea what's happening?" Kaito asks. The vessel shakes again as it's hit by another attack.
The back of it is blown open and Nyla falls out. Yukki panics. "Ms Nyla!" He shouts. Before he even notices Kaito jumps out after her. Yukki looks at the trouble behind him. "The soldiers will be ok, they're trained for this." He says. He then looks at the opening in the vessel. "More importantly, i cannot leave Miss, Nyla with this stranger!" Yukki braces himself and then jumps out after them.
He regrets it quickly as he sees that he's now falling downhill.
