-Add's Pov-
Cold, despair, sadness and loneliness. That's what seen in my magmenta eyes. I stared down the window watching the hot-headed siblings practicing their swordsplay.
It's the middle of winter here in the hamel capital, home of the prince of hamel and my comrade, chung seiker. I was lonely. Very lonely.
Many things happened to me, I lost my family, turned into a slave, tortured, locked up, but now that I escaped my cursed fate it's still not enough to satisfy me. I exhaled a big sighed and wore my white lab coat, making my way to the kitchen of the castle that is the property of the seiker royalties.
Maids frantically running around keeping the place tidy up and doing decorations for the upcoming banquet.
"Hey! Add!" chung ran to me panting in exhaustion.
"Have you seen ara anywhere?" I shook my head and continued making my way to the kitchen while he followed me.
"Why are you following me?" I asked still facing forward.
"Oh. We're just coincidently walking the same way hehe" He smiled sheepishly at me from behind.
I ignored him and still making y way to the kitchen. When I was making the corner I bumped into something or rather someone to be exact.
"Tch. Watch where you going." I dusted my coat like there were some dirt on it.
"I'm sorry add, but you were the one who bumped into me." Said the person I bumped into monotonously. It was the nasod queen,eve, herself.
Chung greeted the queen and I tried to ignored her and pass by her but she grabbed my shirt and said "and where is my sorry mister?"
I examined her. She was never the type to bother with someone as lowly as me. I just shrugged and forcefully grabbed my sleeve away from her grasp.
"When did you start to bother yourself with me nasod queen?" I shrugged and continued my pace.
"I do what I desire and demand that you apologize." She said with a stern voice while following me.
"Tch. Leave me alone." I increased my speed but she still kept up with me without breaking a sweat.
"I am the one who will decide that." I started gliding using my dynamos but she also did the same.
"Why the hell are you chasing me?!" I sound irritated when someone starts chasing me.
"To hear you apologize."
"Fine. Sorry! Now leave me alone!" I glanced back but she still keep following me.
"No." said the queen sounding quite annoyed . Why isn't he chasing after me and my codes today?
"Tch." I slowed up and start walking instead. "Do whatever you want"
There was no other conversation after that and we just kept making our way to the kitchen.
"Damnit why does this place have to be so big" I mumbled to myself while looking over the map on a floating screen created by my dynamos.
Finally I arrived now for some food. As I thought to myself and open the door a piece of dough flew and planted itself onto my face. My vein popped and I shouted
"What the hell is going on?!"
Aisha and rena turned and looked at me awkwardly with a bowl of dough in their hands. Looks like they were whipping it to bake a cake huh?
At the corner of the table I saw raven was covered with dough on his hair and places.
"Don't you dare laugh" He shot me a menacing stare.
"So? What are you doing aisha and rena?" eve peered to take a look from behind me.
"Oh we were planning to make cake for everyone" exclaimed rena
"Sorry this got out of hand" aisha was fidgeting with embarrassment
"Anyway can I have a cup of coffee first?" I asked them and seat myself near raven and eve did the same.
"Sure thing just wait a bit" and rena skipped happily to make some coffee for me
Mom…As I thought to myself eve inched closer to me to check on me.
"Are you ok add?" she asked innocently this time without any superiority.
"yea…"
I just slumped my head into my arms hiding my pained face from her.
I'm so pathetic…
Raven just pat my shoulder like he was trying to cheer me up.
"I'm gonna go outside. Rena just leave my coffee in the fridge" I told her and she just hummed out an 'ok'.
…
I walked toward my favorite destination. A café. It was bustling with people but then a waitress came and found me a seat on the terrace. I ordered a strawberry shortcake and hot chocolate then the waitress ran to the counter.
I sighed out and my breath formed into a fog in the air.
"What a cold world" I spoke to myself silently and wait for my order.
Soon a certain nasod queen came and walk towards my table.
"Is the seat occupied?" she asked
"Yes. Yes it is. With my loneliness." I chuckled at the cheesy line I just said subconsciously.
I didn't even look at her but her cheek was forming a pout which was very rare and anyone who saw this would think a boyfriend is teasing his girlfriend.
"So why did you come here?" asked the nasod queen monotonously hiding her emotions.
"It's my favorite shop and the place where I can calm myself"
"I see. Do yo-"
"Here is your order dear valued customer" the waitress cut in and offered her infamous wide grin with my order.
"Thanks"
"and what will your order be miss?"
"Green tea for me please"
The waitress skipped away and I started eating my slice of cake, strawberry first.
"So you like strawberry shortcake?" asked eve while resting her chin on her palm.
"What's with you today?" I asked suspiciously and I could notice a small tink of pink on her cheek if I'm not mistaken.
"Nothing really. I'm just curious" she faced away to the street.
"What? Are you starting to stalk me instead now?" I asked jokingly.
She blushed furiously and kept quiet for a while and spoke.
"I'm not" her voice was low like a squeak.
"Whatever" I replied with no interest.
"What's wro-"
"Here is your order miss! Do enjoy" the waitress came with eve order and again cut her words.
"…thank you…" eve slightly irritated that someone keep cutting her words off time to time.
The waitress walked away to other customers in the shop and take their orders.
I ate my cake quietly and sip on the hot chocolate not caring about the nasod queen in front of me.
She just stared at me. I felt annoyed of course when you have someone stared at you you would feel annoyed.
"Your tea will get cold" I said quietly but enough for her to hear.
She quickly took a sip but instead burned her tongue and made a cute face while sticking her tongue out.
So cute… as I thought to myself and blushed a bit while pushing away the thought.
She blew her tea and slowly sipping the tea taking in both the aroma and the taste while enjoying it.
"I gotta admit this place tea is really delicious even more than what rena or ophelia made for me"
I just ignored what she said and finished my cake and my hot chocolate. I then stood abruptly and made my way to the counter and paid for my and eve expense. Eve followed in short and thanked me.
We were just making our way through the beautiful capital of water, watching the water flow endlessly from the fountain. I glance over to eve as she was shivering in the cold.
I took off my coat and flopped it onto her petite figure.
"It's warm" she said as she snuggled up into my coat with a noticeable blush plastered on her face.
"Are you cold?"
She asked me and I just shook my head, shoving my hands into my pockets and continued walking.
People that were passing us thanked us for our hard work in taking back the capital of water and freeing the citizens from the evil clutch of the demons.
They bowed courteously and continue with what they were doing. I looked around and see a lot of things happened. Buildings were destroyed. Their flags were burned, but they still manage to smile to each other and word.
They really are carefree…
A sad expression crawled up to my face. I manage to remind myself of the past again even when I tried to forget it.
Well who could forget it. It's painful… Mom…I miss you…
Eve held my ice cold hand and said "Are you ok? You look like you're very sad.."
Of course I'm sad…I want to see my mother…but she is killed! What can a pathetic man like me do?!
I kept raging inside my own head. Then suddenly…
*BOOM*
Something exploded and ice grew out like a flower budding. It was Avalanche.
"Humans…worship and offer your souls as sacrifice to the demon god…" he ordered
"Let's go help the people nasod queen" I quickly said with dynamos hovering behind me.
She nodded and glided right to evacuate the people and contact the elgang while I hovered myself to battle against avalanche.
"Offer your souls and you shall receive eternal peace…" avalanche still speak out as I close out distances.
"Shut your traps you pile of rotten corpse!" "Flick disc!" I yelled out as I sent a disc towards avalanche and he dodges it with ease.
"Offer your souls and you shall receive eternal peace" He still babbles on about that.
"Shut up! Panzer bust-" suddenly a shadow approach me and kick me in the abdomen, causing me to black out.
"ADD!" eve yelled out and that was what I last heard from her…
.

"Nhghhh…" I woke up, blinking to get a clear vision on my surroundings.
I was tied up to a chair with ropes. Considering my physics, breaking out of this and escape is impossible right now.
Right! Where's dynamo?!
I thought to myself and heard…
"Looking for your weapon?" a figure appear before me and held a bag which seems to contain my dynamos.
"Damn you! What are you going to do to me?!" I barked and raise my head up to see who it is and "CHLOE!"
"That's right fufufufu"
"Why are you here?! I thought we killed you at the heart of ancient waterway already?!"
"Kufufufufu kyahahahaha that's what you thought you loser! I was helped by master ran and was given a new power! Now you and your gang are no match for me! HAHAHAHA!"
"You're insane woman!" I barked at her.
"I know and I love it!" she kicked me in the jaw and grab my hair to lift my face.
"Now I want informations on your little gang little boy"
I spit on her face and she punched me in the stomach causing me to gag and some blood stream out of my mouth. I endured in pain.
"Don't worry deary… we both can take our time~~ especially me kyahahahaha"
She then laughed maniacally and I lost my consciousness again.
I hope the city will be ok…eve…everyone…was my last train of thought before I slumped my head.
_Meanwhile at the city_
-Eve's Pov-
I ran frantically trying to find my friends. I ran and ran without caring about how tired I am.
I reached the castle that we are staying at and fund elesis and elsword in the courtyard training.
I shout of to them "Help! Help! El*huff*esis *huff* Elsword!*huff*"
My lung and throat was burning from all the running, but I didn't care.
"What's wrong eve?" said elesis.
Then elsword followed "calm down first"
"Add was abducted!" I manage to shout out.
"WHAT?!" they both said in unison.
"We better call the rest of the gang! Elsword go find lu and ciel! Meet us in the kitchen! I'll go find chung and ara and eve you go to rena! GO!"
"Yes ma'am!" Elsword and I said and we part our ways to find the others.
Please be safe add!
_At a certain place where add is held captive_
-Add's Pov-
"Ugh…" I groaned from the ache on my entire body.
Déjà vu…? I thought to myself as I woke up and saw chloe was holding a tool.
"Oh my good morning there~" She waved while holding the tool and inching towards me.
"What are you gonna do to me?!" I yelled at her.
She held her pointy ears and spoke.
"Geez. Shut the fuck up loser. I'm just gonna give you a bit of torture~~" she smiled menacingly at me.
She took the tool and position it at my finger nail and suddenly forcefully extract my fingernails.
"GYAHHHH!" I scream loudly as the pain was so sudden and too much for me.
Blood was oozing out of my fingertip. Chloe licked her lips enjoying the view of me in pain.
"Oh~ Gosh~~ That felt amazing~ Ahh~~ Ahh~~" and she continued to pluck out my finger nails forcefully until I'm even done with my toe nails.
"Ugh…Guh….uguhhnhuuh…." My tears were letting itself out. I can't endure through it.
It hurts! It hurts…ugh…why do I deserve this…I thought to myself as I couldn't hold back my pain.
"Kyahahahaha I just love that priceless reaction mmhhhhhh~~" she moaned to herself while my mind was blank. The pain was excruciating.
"Oh my..I let myself loose~ now I'm all wet~ You have to take responsibilities ok~~?"
Then she grab my neck and choke me. It was painful. I struggle for air and desperately try to break free from this torture. I was shaking so much that the rope restraining me was loosing itself.
I thought this would be my chance to break free but I was almost reaching my limit and nearly went unconscious until chloe let go of me.
"Fufu~~ we'll play with each other again add~~ and I will bring much more fun toys for y-o-u~~"
She smiled seductively but had no effect on me as the pain was my first priority. She then told the shadow demons to take me back to my very own cell.
Ugh..guh… I need to endure…until they come and save me…please save me soon…eve…
I thought to myself in my cell while crying only awaiting for a worse tomorrow. I keep biting my arm to endure and keep myself conscious eventhough the pain I receive still haven't died down.
_Back to the elgang_
-Eve's Pov-
"We need to go rescue add immediately!" I said to the rest of the gang.
"Calm down eve. First we need a concrete plan first." Raven the wise man of the team spoke up.
"But we don't know what could be happening to add at this moment!" I yelled at him while holding my tears but to no avail and still let it stream out.
"Heh! It's ok eve! He won't die. Even if he dies no one will even care because he was always suspicious anyways. Maybe he were a demon in disguise to get informations on us instead!" Elsword claims his own idea with a big smile. My vein popped and I jumped and slap him till he hit the wall and made a hole in it.
He stood back up and rubbed the back of his head and "What the hell I wrong with you?!" He said angrily.
You little brat!
I was about to jump at him but raven and elesis beat me to it. They beat him up so bad that he needed to let aisha and rena heal him with magic and potions.
"YOU FUCKING SHITTY BRAT! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES HE HELPED AND SAVED US ALONG OUR JOURNEY?! ARE YOU TRYING TO FUCKING PICK A FIGHT?!" raven snapped after he punched the living el out of the brat.
Everyone flinched and cowered in fear of the blade master's fury. Usually raven was a calm and wise man but now he snapped which was to everyone surprise.
"True. Elsword you went too far." Chung said to elsword trying to sound peaceful but still held the anger in his voice.
"Elsword I'm disappointed in you" Elesis glared at elsword coldly.
All he could do was feeling shamed and apologized to me. I won't forgive you easily you dork. You insult my man you should suffer more. Wait! My man?! Stop being so naughty eve! You naughty girl! KYAHHHHHH!
I was fighting with my inner self while wearing a poker face still with a bit of anger.
"Ok! This is not the time to fight each other! Let's think of a plan quickly!" ciel voiced out his opinions impatiently which was to everyone surprise also.
Today we were showed the different side of everyone.
"Eve tell me. What demon took him away?" chung asked me.
"It was avalanche the one you showed us a few days ago and a cloaked figure which I don't know" I replied sternly.
"Ok our biggest lead is avalanche at the temple of frozen water" lu spoke.
"Then we have to move quickly through magmanta's cave and defeat it quickly and get to avalanche!" elesis claimed
"We should start preparing. The faster the better! The girls will go buy the necessary consumptions the guys will check the gear. Let's go people!" raven speak out like a true leader.
"Sir, yes sir" then we set out to prepare as raven ordered.

-Add's Pov-
I was looking around while the low life demon shadow chaser ordered me to walk. My eyes are swollen and red because I was crying due to the pain. I pray that today won't be worse than yesterday.
My hope was shattered when I saw chloe walking towards me with a new 'toy' of hers.
I just clenched my teeth and hope everything will be over soon.
Mom…Eve…guys…
