It's been 2 years since Recca and Kurei have partnered up with each other and accepted each other as half siblings. One day, they decided to take a vacation together to celebrate Recca's birthday in a nearby island which was also isolated. They arrived at their place in the afternoon and they decided to just eat whatever left overs they have from the morning surprise party Recca's friends held. After eating, Recca went to the most isolated part of the island which was the shore. There, Recca started training with his flame dragons with Kurei assisting him on the process. "Nadare!" Recca summoned after doing the hand sign. Nadare came out roaring loud. "Fireballs! Ah!" He shouted aiming at the big rock on the shore's beach. He busted that rock with ease and let Nadare back into his arm. "Woah! Easy there, boy! You don't want to exhaust yourself on your own birthday." Kurei told his half-brother. "I'm just training, man! C'mon! ease up!" Recca cheered. "Now…Let's train your illusion abilities and see if you have improved them." Kurei suggested. "Rui!" as Recca summoned his dragon, Rui's tattoo on Recca's arm starts fading and making Recca scream in pain. "R-Recca! What's wrong?" His brother ran up to him. As Rui got out, she roared in a way that sounded like a laugh. "R-Rui! What are you doing?" Her summoner asked. "Escaping from your grasps of course!" She laughed. "What the? Aaahhh!" Recca screamed in pain both hurt by the pain the fading is causing and confused by his dragon's actions. "As for trapping me inside you, I will punish you and send you both in a world where humanity has lost all hope and let you die there!" Rui laughed at them and creating some sort of portal made of fire sucking both the brothers in screaming. "Finally…I'm free!" Rui laughed and took her human form using her illusion powers.
Trost's HQ: Dining Hall
"S-so, Eren? What are your plans for tonight?" Armin asked. "Well…I'm going to train but it seems that Mikasa has beaten me to thinking that stealing my training spot in the process." Eren replied looking disappointed at the now smirking Mikasa. As they were talking, all the people in the hall looked surprised when they heard a loud thud outside scaring others in the process. "Prepare for the worst, men!" One of the commanders in the hall shouted. "W-What was that?" Eren asked his friends. "W-we don't know! We're here with you inside! How are we supposed to know?" Mikasa huffed. After the dust and the fire settled, two men emerged wearing strange outfits. The one wearing a blue shirt with a rolled white sleeve spoke.
Recca's POV:
"W-Where are w-we?" I asked my half-brother. I heard no answers from him so I tried approaching him. "Hey! Are you okay?" I asked him and all I got as a response was a grunt so I took that as a no but also a yes that he's alive.
