Chapter 2: Celestial Being, and an old friend.
"Welcome To Celestial Being… Lost Destiny." The man said, chuckling softly. Lost took a step back as he wasn't able to fully comprehend the man's words "What… are you talking about. Who the hell are you!" he snapped in response. "My name is of no importance right now Lost… what is important is that you have met the qualifications to become a Gundam Meister and join us in our endeavors to change this world." The purple haired man explained. Lost gave the purple haired male a questioning look "Gundam… Meister…" he repeated in a confused manner "That's impossible, Celestial Being was destroyed four years ago, as well as the gundam meisters. Fon, the last remaining meister also disappeared with his gundam about a year ago." He kept himself in full alert, his gun still pointed at the male. "That is true that we were defeated, but we were never taken out." Said the purple haired male as he let out a soft chuckle. Lost staggered a bit at all this information "What… do you want, I mean what would Celestial Being want with a simple Katharon member like me?" He questioned the male. "Well it's quite simple, you are quite the tactical forecaster as well as an amazing pilot, for a child anyway…" the male teased before Lost interrupted "I'll forget you said that last part." He said as he leered at the man "Moving on…" Lost said annoyed "Yes, anyway, due to your… remarkable abilities for your age, and the fact we are currently without a forecaster, we would like you to come and join us." He said "But, it is your decision and yours alone." He said as he handed Lost a crystal looking chain "All our information is on there, as well as the rendezvous coordinates. If you choose to join us, well you know where to meet with us." He said as he began to leave the room. Lost turned to him "And what if I decide to hand this over to the ESF, how can you trust me enough to know I won't betray Katharon and celestial being?" he asked. The man laughed "Because, I know all about you and your past, you wouldn't trust the current ESF." He said smiling. Lost growled a bit "Who… who are you?" he asked. "I guess I can say my name. I am Tieria, Tieria Erde." He said, and with that he left his room and apartment. "Tieria… Erde…" Lost paused as he looked at the crystal "I'll remember your name…" he said before clenching his fist.
The young lad sighed as he stood there in the shower. The cold water beating at his warm skin felt nice at this point "I've been in that desert so long… I got myself a stupid tan." He said sighing. His arms, thighs, neck, and face were all tanned from the scorching heat of the Middle East and it annoyed him since the rest of his body was still the usual pale. "It feels nice to take a cold bath though after all that time in the disgusting sand." He said as he chuckled. Turning the water off and stepping out he grabbed his towel and dried off. After getting himself a glass of pop and some of the leftover dango from the airport, lost plopped down on the chair and turned his computer on "Hm… Celestial… Being…" he thought to himself as he looked at the chain which was sitting on his coffee table "Should I…" he said aloud before pausing "No… how can I even trust if it really was them, what if this crystal is a trap by the ESF to get data off my computer… I guess I'll wait till next month, have Mellow look at it for me. Maybe… Noah can help me out." He said as he finished the last of his Dango "….. Sukiyaki…" he said as his stomach growled
The sun rose on another day, it was already December in Japan though Lost wasn't use to the cold air "Dammit its freezing." He said as he was heading to the supermarket. He'd been gone for so long, most of the stuff in his fridge had spoiled already. He gave a second sigh as he passed by someone "What is known, but cannot be seen, what is seen and always feared…" the man said. Lost turned to look at him and smiled "Death… long time no see Lyle." Lost said as he turned and faced the tall man. He gave a small chuckle as they shook hands "What're you doing here in little ol' Nihon?" he asked him curiously "I just came to check some things out before I head back to Ireland… what are you doing back here?" he asked Lost. "Well I am a native here you know." He said, chuckling softly "What about the… well you know." Lyle said, trying to be discreet so as not to draw too much attention "Well, let's talk about that in private, don't need someone listening in." he said as he handed Lyle a slip of paper with his address "That's my apartment number, be there later, I'll explain the details later." He said before turning to head off to the grocery store. Lyle looked at the paper for a moment before putting it in his pocket "Noah was right about him. Lost… you need to…" Lyle's words were dulled by the sound of a truck passing by him as he watched the boy continue to run off. "Well, I might as well head to his place now…" The brown haired male said as he turned and walked off as well.
