Chapter 2: Confrontation
2 team champions revived, they shook hand and hugged each other, Graves had farewell with all of the champions except Caitlyn and so did she. Then blue ring appeared to bring them back to home. Graves stared at Caitlyn, she noticed and yelled just before they disappeared: "Don't want to see you again, you giant".
_ What...
Graves hadn't completed his sentence yet, he had been back to home already. He looked at his room and sighed: "What a woman". It's the end of the afternoon, the sun started to fading away. Graves, unlike others going for dinner, he went to the training ground. The training ground was indeed a series of chambers. Each chamber is an battlefield where the atmosphere are created by Summoner and can change to suit a champion's request . The guardian Josh nodded when he see Graves: "Nice fight, but good luck next time". He looked at him, smiled: "You still got room for me"? Josh shook his head: "room 90 has been taken, I'm sorry. You can take..." Graves raised his hand, he look at Josh questionly:
_ You know that only me will be here at the time of diner and you also know that the room number 90 is on me. Tell me, why?
_ Well, today, unusually there was another champion come here alone and wished to train. Only her by this time.
_ A woman and you let her in my room? There are plenty of room, why's 90?
He sighed:
_ At 1st I told her that there was Graves who would use this room soon. She laughed and told me just give her the room, if you come and mess up she will deal with it.
_ Who in the name of God is she?
_ Caitlyn.
Graves opened his eyes wide, rage filled his head, "What kind of woman is she? HER? Again?".He held his gun tight. Josh started to freak out, he knew Graves because they have diner every time after he had finished his "diner time training". And Graves have never gotten mad, not even when he mentioned about Fate, but he seems to be enraged now. Graves's face suddenly relaxed, he asked if Josh could let him in his room with that woman. He raised an eye bow, totally surprised about Graves's attitudes. He nodded and used his magic to open a portal. Just before Graves enter, he clapped his shoulder: "I will wait until my time guarding is done and if you don't get back in time, I will drag you out, ok"? "Just an hour and I'll be off". He entered the portal, before vanishing, Graves yelled: "Thanks Josh, diner will be on me". Josh shook his head and smile softly, he wondered why...
Some minutes ago, Josh sat on the chair near the door to the Training ground. He sighed. He always had dinner alone until he found Graves. They become friend. Josh realized that Graves is a silent man, always calm and humorous, but deep inside is a hatred for Fate. When they talked about him, he didn't show it but by his eyes Josh knew about his rage. This man's eyes were burning even his voice was calm. Luckily or unluckily for him, Fate didn't live in the League's quarter and no one was permitted to tell him about Fate's location - order of the council. Graves noticed this but he was still befriend with Josh. He thought: "A man, truly he is, I feel shame for thinking that he was using me for Fate's location". While he was thinking, a woman appeared before him, her voice dragged him back to present:
_ Excuse me, are you alright?
He turned to her: "oh, Miss Caitlyn, what are you doing here by this time, it's diner"?
_ Oh, I don't feel like I could take diner today, I need to train a little bit,
_ At this time? There are not so many.
_ I want to be alone Summoner, training alone, you know.
He bowed his head:
_ I see, call me Josh. Now, as you wish...
_ Can I chose my room number?
_ Ah yes. And what number do you want?
_ 90.
_ 90? Why 90? He seemed surprise
_ My weapon can shoot a 90. cal net, because of it, I got myself killed today. So, I think about it and 90 is a good idea.
He shook his head:
_ Sorry miss but room 90 is already taken.
_ Too bad, mind if I ask who?
_ Graves, he'll be here in a minutes.
She laughed and took her rifle:
_ Really. I have never thought about that. Josh, just let me in, then tell him this...
He opened his eyes wide after hearing her offer: "I, ah, well miss, this seems weird, what if he accepted to change room"? She laughed and enter the portal: "Just do as I say, I have pissed him off today so I can guarantee that he will come, if he don't, still good for me. See ya".
