Paul and Vi chose a table and took a seat. The waiter approached, asked the two what they wanted to order, and Vi said, "Just a cup of water," in Hasdivian language.
Paul also asked for a cup of water. The waiter nodded, and walked away.
"If the threat level for this mission is high, then even if the mission reward is divided, it'll still be worth it." said Paul.
Vi sighed, and said, "Well, I just hope we finish this mission fast. I have a date with someone today."
"You and your dates. What, new girl this time?"
Vi's eyebrow twitched. "Hah. At least I'm not the guy who fumbled a 10/10 who was interested in him."
Paul smirked, and said, "Hey, if a 10/10 was interested in me, then that means I have potential. Oh, and thank goodness I'm not the guy who switches girls every week. You even broke the heart of an Assassin-type... I'm surprised you're still alive and kicking."
"I'm not sure if you're insulting me or complimenting me." Vi said with a smile as he crossed his arms.
Then, the waiter returned with two cups of water.
As Vi grabbed the cup of water and was about to take a sip, he paused for a second and put down the cup. "The water's f**king green."
Paul raised an eyebrow, and looked at his cup. "Yeah, mine too..."
They both sighed, already doubting if this world even had water that was at least not poison to humans.
Suddenly, three elephants, no—Hasdivians, approached the two at the table.
"Zah dils ya jivudrerc?" Said the Hasdivian.
Paul and Vi felt their heart skip a beat as they just heard and understood the alien's words. It was one of the abilities of Disguise.
What it said translates to: Are these the intruders?
The Hasdivian on the left pointed at the disguised Paul and Vi and shouted, "Jer! Zeyr Divipors! Divipors!" Translation: Here! They're Visitors! Visitors!
Suddenly, the third Hasdivian wearing a metal glove threw a punch towards the disguised Vi. Vi grabbed his umbrella in time, unfurled it, and used it as a shield.
As the Hasdivian's fist struck the umbrella's surface, Paul immediately pulled out his own umbrella—a foldable one.
Paul extended his foldable umbrella, aimed it at the Hasdivian who struck Vi's umbrella, and four bullets were shot out, striking the Hasdivian.
Paul was a Ranger-type. The customers who sensed the commotion exited the restaurant, and the owner was calling for the "authorities".
The Hasdivian who was shot four times took a step back, and the two Hasdivians beside him took out weapons of their own. The first Hasdivian who approached Paul and Vi and asked a question pulled out some sort of pistol. And the second Hasdivian pulled out a knife.
Vi furled his umbrella, and it suddenly turned into a dagger. Then, he deactivated his Disguise. He had black hair and black eyes. He was quite handsome. He wore a black fedora, white dress shirt, black vest, black double-breasted suit, black necktie, black tailored pants, black leather shoes, and a silver watch. Overall, he looked expensive.
Vi rushed towards the alien who struck him earlier. Then, with his dagger on his right hand, he swung it, but the Hasdivian caught it in time with its metal glove.
Then, Vi made the dagger disappear and reappear in his left hand. He stabbed the Hasdivian on the neck. Vi was an Assassin-type.
"Hey! Sylvia's gonna get mad at you for killing!" Paul shouted.
Vi didn't respond. Then, the Hasdivian with a pistol didn't know who to aim at. A second later, the alien aimed at Vi, but before it could pull the trigger, the alien felt a sharp, searing pain in both its hands. It dropped the pistol, and looked at the disguised Paul.
Paul shot the alien's hands before it could even shoot at Vi. Then, the alien with a knife rushed towards the one closest to it—Vi.
Vi didn't even look at the alien, as if he knew the outcome. Then, as the alien was rushing towards Vi, it felt an abnormal pain its legs. The alien staggered, fell to the floor, and screamed.
Paul shot the alien that was rushing towards Vi on the legs. The first Hasdivian couldn't pick up the pistol anymore because of its injured hands. The second couldn't stood up anymore. And the third wasn't even breathing anymore.
Vi removed the dagger from the Hasdivian's neck, and it turned into an umbrella like before. The two Hasdivians who were obviously in pain couldn't do a thing anymore.
Then, the Hasdivian who was shot in the hands shouted, "Tan gu, Divipors! Na bas Humkreras yamt zih tus?!" Translation: Damn you, Visitors! What does Umbrellas want with us?!
Paul was momentarily surprised, surprised that this alien knew of Umbrella's existence. Vi sighed, but as his gaze landed on the entrance of the restaurant, a ball of purple that was surging with electricity suddenly entered the restaurant. It was too fast, and Vi couldn't even react. It was heading straight for everyone inside the restaurant. The ball of electricity went past them, making contact with the wall behind Paul and Vi. It exploded, and the two Visitors were sent flying.
The two Hasdivians, probably because of their weight, remained on the spot, their skin burning. The two aliens screamed. The two Visitors landed near the entrance, their clothes burned. The doors opened, and four Hasdivians who were holding weapons that glowed a bright purple suddenly entered.
Meanwhile, inside the restroom that had a hidden passageway.
Harold put down the two heavy aliens on the floor, when he suddenly heard a loud bang! It was so powerful that the restaurant shook a little. He closed his eyes after he heard it, and as he opened his eyes, the restroom door had been blown away and is currently burning.
The two Hasdivians who were knocked out suddenly jolted awake because of the blood boom. They kicked and screamed, but couldn't break free from the chains of light. Then, Harold heard footsteps coming from the hidden entrance. It was Donovan, Sylvia, and Sasha.
"What happened?" Donovan went out first, followed with Sylvia and Sasha.
The muscular and ridiculously tall Harold shook his head, "I don't know. I'll head out first."
Harold activated his Disguise and left the restroom. He heard footsteps behind him, turned around, and the three Visitors were following him.
The tables and chairs were absolutely destroyed, and three Hasdivians were burning on the floor. They were no longer screaming. Everything was in flames. Harold and Donovan squinted their eyes, and saw the disguised Paul and the undisguised Vi near the entrance. Four Hasdivians also entered the restaurant.
As the Hasdivian reached a hand towards Vi, the hand it used to reach out suddenly fell on the floor, followed by dripping blood. The Hasdivian screamed and stepped back, and the Hasdivians beside it drew a gasp.
Standing before Paul and Vi was Sylvia with her umbrella that's already turned into a katana. She kicked away the severed hand.
"Don't you dare lay a hand on my team." She said with a serious expression.
Donovan couldn't help but be amazed. What was I thinking... That's a team leader for you...
Harold and Sasha rushed towards the two injured Paul and Vi. The Hasdivians "growled," and pointed their guns at Sylvia. Sylvia just stood there, unfazed. Then, as they pulled the trigger, an umbrella larger than most appeared in front of Sylvia, blocking the bullets. It was none other than Harold, the Tanker-type Visitor.
Harold's umbrella blocked the entrance while Sasha was performing healing on Paul and Vi.
"Agh, they got us good..." Paul said slowly.
Vi didn't say a word as he let himself get healed.
Everyone except for Paul had already deactivated their disguises.
Sylvia crouched beside her injured teammates. Then, she saw the Mage-type Visitor with brown hair, green eyes, and a small stubble approach.
