The five years without gnosis to frighten human existence, man kind had flourished. Gone was their inner struggle to live. Weapons created to destroy gnosis lock away, securely away but accessible if needed.
Big corporations that we're concentrating in weapon development that serve its purpose against gnosis suffered bankruptcy, unable to do anything else but invest in other necessities required for the era of peace, while other companies continued with their developments due to fear that the gnosis will return.
Miltia, Fifth Jerusalem, and the Kukai Foundation had their hands full for the first two years. Trying to assure immigrants and fugitives from gnosis attacks that it was safe to return to the planets they once dwell in fear.
Vector, having lost its CEO and director was left with a greater dilemma. Wilhelm disappearing without any subordinates to take over the company; left the big corporation a massive uproar and debate to the next suited candidate to take over the company and to inherit its humongous responsibility.
The uproar only lasted month's prior to the disappearance of gnosis. Wilhelm's replacement had been decided in secret. The compromise unknown to anyone, even to their employees. Nobody knew who run the company from then on. Only that it was run in secrets. Whoever pulled the strings was officially an unidentified man, even to higher officials in the Federation or any organizations.
Jr. Kukai, now head of the Foundation carried on the life that he and Gaignun had led after the Miltia conflict with much ease despite his loses. He would occasionally diverse in operations against organizations that threaten to severe ties between corporations.
Shelly and Mary Godwin supported and aided their little master on his journeys and struggles as the leader of the Foundation.
MOMO Mizrahi, one hundred series observational unit prototype, officially Juli Mizrahi's daughter in name, now helped and aided her mother in her duties in the subcommittee along with the watchful orbs of Ziggurat 8.
Ziggurat 8, dubbed Ziggy, found himself sheltered in the Mizrahi household enjoying the company of the family that they had somehow created due to close tie connections. Often found in the company of Jr. when the ladies were needed in fifth Jerusalem.
The crew of Elsa, now lifted from their never ending dept, found themselves working as a tourist transport ship just as their ship was meant to be. Their illegal escapades finally halted and work honestly.
Allen Ridgely, the first class working type person and employee of Vector work whole heartedly at the same place for five years, and officially seeing Shion Uzuki.
Shion Uzuki, retired Vector employee and Scientia member quietly settled down in her home in Miltia.
Jin Uzuki from five years prior is missing in action.
KOS-MOS and chaos' location unknown.
Five years ago…
"Damn it," Jr. cursed impatiently staring at the monitor screen. "We're no where near it, are we!" he stated clenching his fist and gritting his teeth shut.
"Well, da's no'thin we can do about it lil master," Mary exclaimed shrugging her shoulders. Shelly didn't respond to his outburst but simply kept herself busy.
The automatic doors to the bridge buzz opened revealing Shion and Allen.
"Well, we sure are the happy bunch." Shion stated pointing at their gloomy faces.
"We're doomed aren't we," Allen exclaimed taking a hint at their defeated faces.
"Oi, Shuddup you wimp, we ain't doom," Captain Mathews whack Allen's head from the back. "Just not getting any closer to our destination, is all." He calmly stated.
All inhabitants in the bridge were silenced hearing the obvious.
Hammer release a heavy sigh. Tony simply shrugged. Captain Mathews simply adjusted his red baseball cap. Jr. glared at the floor. Allen shifted his gaze on the ceiling. Mary and Shelly stared hard on their monitor screen. Shion was staring simply ahead.
All of them were thinking along the same lines.
The whereabouts of Lost Jerusalem.
Jin Uzuki.
chaos.
KOS-MOS.
An alarm snapped them from their deep thoughts.
"A UMN connection," Hammer informed.
"Well, what you're waiting for." Captain Mathews kicked Hammer's head.
"I'm at it…gee…ouch Captain…I don't see you whacking Tony's head or chaos'" Hammer complained but hooked the connection.
Everyone in the room froze when Hammer mention the name of their missing comrade. All of them felt a fang of guilt for not finding their friends sooner. Though everyone was aware that they couldn't rush their search. And even at best they were not reaching that place at all.
"Shion," a cheery voiced and happy face of Miyuki greeted them.
"Miyuki," Shion and Allen said at the same time with surprised in their tones.
"Did you reach your destination yet? Is KOS-MOS there? Ooh and by the way, how are you fairing?"
Everyone in the bridge can't believe Miyuki's enthusiasm or her cheery ramblings. They watch and watch her with disbelieve, bringing them all back to their current dilemma.
"Ooh…I can't wait to see you guys back. It's a mess here right now, did I tell you yet that it's been uproar here since the incident was solve. I mean sure there's no zohar and gnosis around to fight anymore…hey where is KOS-MOS? Oh and that cute young boy too! And not to mention, your brother!"
They all release a sigh when she stopped talking all at the same time.
"Aah, guys…care to tell me what's going on…Shion?...Allen?"
Miyuki just give them an odd stare, a worry yet confuse stare.
"Well you see Miyuki, we've not reach Lost Jerusalem yet. KOS-MOS not found, Jin still MIA, and chaos is just the same." Shion informed her friend from second division.
"But it's been three months already Shion, you guys oath to be there by now," Miyuki reasoned.
"Sorry babe, finding Lost Jerusalem is like finding a needle in a haystack. But don't worry we won't give up searching for chaos, KOS-MOS, and Jin. We'll find them…I hope," Tony spoke, tired of the ladies looking so down and worried, but also trying to reassure his thoughts that they were alright, wherever they are.
"Yah, just as he said…we'll find them," Captain Mathews joined Tony in reassuring Miyuki. Hammer merely nodded his head in agreement.
Jr. nodded his head in his corner and opened his purple eyes with blazing flames in his orbs, his resolution adding more determination.
"And when that happens, I'll personally lock them up in a damn room where they can't leave any of us anymore. I'll even stand guard, there's no way they're going to make us worry any more…HA HA HA HA," Jr. laugh and everyone in the room can't help the sweatdrop found its way on the back of their heads.
"Well, if the lil master says he gonna do it, he's gonna do it. Though I can't help but sympathize to chaos when that happens," Mary shrugged at the thought and felt bad for the young man that will taste Jr.'s punishment.
"I think Jr. is starting to turn into Albido," Allen whispered to himself.
"Well, the persona sure is rubbing in," Shion agreed.
"Especially the laughing part," Hammer whispered along them. And they all nodded.
"Mary is right though, I will feel sorry for chaos getting stuck in a room with KOS-MOS and my good for nothing brother."
"I'm sure KOS-MOS and Jin can handle being lock up together, they could stand having no conversations at all…poor chaos will be stuck with anti-social people."
"Now, now, Allen. It won't be too bad, and if chaos goes insane with his punishment…well will deal with that a later time."
"I doubt it Ms. Vector, chaos won't go insane just because he's stuck with robot girl and a quiet man. It's chaos we're talking about here after all." Hammer defended chaos sanity.
"You do have a point, but who knows how long Jr. is planning to lock them all up." Shion mumbled softly.
"ermm…that's not good," Hammer's eyes started to have wools of worry in them.
"So who else has a punishment in mind for the trio, certainly it's not only the little master that had something in mind and planning punishment hysterically." Shelly joined the conversation and already Allen's looking directly at Shion when Shelly made hint of any other punishment.
"Don't look at me Allen…but yes, I do have something in mind," Shion stated huffing and turning back when Allen already had his suspicions about the certain punishments.
"I guess it's my turn to worry about KOS-MOS…huh?" Jr. stated looking at Shion's back.
"Lil master, I never knew you had something for KOS-MOS," Mary teased.
"I do not. She's a friend. Besides we all owe her one. But this is Shion we're talking about, who knows what her mother instincts would do when she meets up with KOS-MOS again." He half yelled.
"And here I thought you decided to go for the mature type," Shelly joined in on the teasing.
"Do not," Jr.'s face was flushed in embarrassment. His cheeks red.
"Good. I'll sure feel sorry for lil MOMO if that was the case," Mary release a sigh of relief.
"errr…guys. In case you haven't notice, I'm still here." Miyuki wave her hands at them trying to get their undivided attention.
"Sorry about that Miyuki. What's happening there in the dammerung?" Shion asked.
"Hm…like I said before it's an uproar. Everyone is biting every single heads for who's going to be the director and CEO now that Mr. Wilhelm is gone. And it didn't help that he didn't leave any instruction to poor little us…and I don't think it's going to end in a few months either."
"I'm sure everything will be alright once it's all settled. It's understandable that their trying to make sure the best fitted will take over the company. After all this is Vector we're talking about."
"Shion's right Miyuki, just don't worry much about it…we'll be back soon, once we find chaos, Jin, and KOS-MOS…okay."
"HEY, I should be the one telling you not to worry you worrywart. Since when did you reassure others that it's going to be okay ALLEN."
"Geez, no need to bit my head off," Allen complain and flinched when she yell his name.
"Well Shion, I better let you guys search for the princess in one piece, make sure you find chaos and your brother too…bye."
And with so much of a click Miyuki was gone. Everyone in the bridge return to their constrained behavior.
"I must say, this is the best tasting homemade curry I've ever eaten in my entire life," Shelly praised.
"Thanks," Shion blushed at the complement, she oath to be used to being praised with her cooking skills but everytime it comes she would be flushed and heat find there way to her cheeks.
"Hey, lil master there's no need to rush…I mean surely Shion have cooked lots for us all hungry bunch. No need to chow down every thing." Mary was horrid stricken watching the way Jr. eat his food with speed, and amaze at how much he could store in his stomach; but was starting to worry that he will have a stomach ache later on.
"Need…my…strength…so…I…could…kick…their…asses…once…we…find…them." Jr. chewed, swallowed, and spoke in between making Mary shrugged at his lack of manners.
"Shame on you lil master. If Master Gaignun saw you like this, I bet he'll send you back to an academy to teach you how to eat properly." Mary scolded. Earning a hard look from Jr. that made her flinch.
'I forgot, master Gaignun is no longer with us…I made a terrible mistake, I'm sorry lil master,' Mary deep within her thoughts didn't notice Shelly pinching her arm, and when she felt the pain she simply welcome it.
'What the heck, they can't see me upset over Nigredo…curse you to hell Yuriev and I sure hope you rot in it too," Jr. fought his inner battles and decided that it wasn't worth it. His eyes soften a bit, he was sure that Gaignun wouldn't want to see him suffering like this.
"Yah, I bet he would do just that…then he'll never hear the end of my complains…eheheheheh…not that you can't blame me, this curry is good. Shion remind me to ask for the recipe later," he breathed deeply and continued his marathon like eating.
"Sure thing, Jr., but you know you can always asked MOMO to cook the curry for you, I thought it to her during our travels," Shion wink and teased Jr. and was rewarded with a blush on his cheeks that could match his hair. Shion merely giggle and Jr. simply ate faster.
The others in the room couldn't help but smile, they all miss MOMO…but it was just like Jr. said before they left chaos, Jin, and KOS-MOS with the original zohar.
'They still have things to take care off, and we too have things that we have to do.'
'Yes, that's right…I still have to meet up with you again KOS-MOS. You promised after all." Shion smiled looking at the stars.
"I think I ate too much," Jr. complained clutching his stomach walking like a crouching tiger about to loose consciousness.
"What I tell you lil master. Hmhp I did warn you after all and all you did is chow everything cleaned," Mary snorted, raising her chin up and looking anywhere but at him.
"ALRIGHT ALREADY, I'm sorry for eating like I've never tasted one damn food in my life and devouring like there's no tomorrow." Jr. apologized. "There, happy." He said clutching his stomach and about to retire and call it a day.
"Lucky for you lil master, I've anticipated that you're going to suffer from a stomach ache today," Mary smiled, and dig her pockets, looking for something. Jr's face lifted up, he knew that she was digging her pockets for medicines.
"Hm…that's strange. I'm sure I put it in here somewhere," she searched her pockets again.
"So much for relief, sigh," he whispered sarcastically.
"ARGH, I'm sure I have it in here somewhere, just you wait lil master I'll have it in no time."
"I'm going to take a break, see you later Mary, and forget about the medicine, I'll just sleep it off. That'll work." Before Mary could say otherwise Jr. already disappeared on the halls of Elsa, heading towards his room, the one he shared with chaos.
'Everything sure looks like the same, even though three months have passed. You all better be alive. I swear…I'll…I'll…oh what the heck my stomachs hurts…sleep think later,' Jr. climb to his sheets and was of to dream land. A dream he shared with his brothers as if they still existed.
