Flora's pov
As me and Gus head to Gundalia, I start to think about me and Gus's relationship. We ended the relationship because both of our parents wanted us to get married. Neither of us wanted this. So we broke up a month before I left for Alfea. I turn to Gus then sigh.
"What's wrong Flora?" Gus asks.
"Remember how we broke up?" I ask while still flying the ship.
"Yeah. Why?" He asks.
"I really didn't like how we did it though. More like the reason why. We did the right thing, right?" I explain.
"Of course we did. You are in love with Helia and I am in love with Ellen. As long as we are happy, the past doesn't matter." Gus explains.
"Thanks Gus. I don't know what I was thinking." I smile to him while relaxing myself.
"Don't worry. I thought some of those things too." Gus says smiling lightly.
"We're about to land." I tell him while landing the ship.
As the ship lands we rush in the palace. We spilt at one hall, me taking the left and Gus taking the right. I stop when I see Ren down the hall. I smile brightly as I run to hug him.
"Ren! You're ok!" I shout happily as I hug him tightly.
"Flora? What are you doing here?" Ren asks while hugging me back.
"I'll tell you later. Where is Linehalt?" I demand.
"He should be on the balcony. Why?" Ren asks as I grab his hand.
"Gus check the balcony." I order as I run to the balcony.
"On it." Gus says.
As we rush to the balcony, I see a man in black about to take Linehalt. I hold up my gun to the back of his head and cock the gun.
"Put the bakgun down and put your hands up." I order as Gus comes behind me.
"Linehalt!" Ren shouts behind me.
The man puts him down and turns to me. The castle guards arrest him as me and Gus lower our weapons.
"Ren!" Linehalt shouts as he rushes to Ren.
"Are you ok Linehalt?" Ren asks.
"Yeah. Who was that guy?" Linehalt asks.
"I'm about to find out. Please put him in my ship." I order the guards.
"Yes Madam." The guard say as they rush the attacker to my ship.
"Flora what is going on?" Ren asks panicked.
"Illing is taking out the brawlers one by one. We need to get Linehalt out of here now." Gus explains in a rush.
"I'm going with him." Ren says determined.
"No you are not." I tell him as I put my weapon away.
"Why not?" He asked confused.
"If you go, then you put him in more danger. You have to stay here. I swear to you that we'll protect him. Ok. Just trust me Ren." I explain to him slowly.
"Alright. But I want an update when you get one." Ren agrees after a few minutes of thinking.
"Thank you. Now we need to get going." Gus says as he starts to walk to the ship.
"Linehalt be careful ok. I'm gonna miss you." Ren says as he rubs his thumb against Linehalt's body.
"I will be fine Ren. You be careful too. Ok." Linehalt agrees as rubs himself against his thumb.
"Linehalt we need to go." I say to him softly as I hold my hand out to him.
They nod to me slowly as Linehalt comes to me. We walk back to ship and head back home. As we get out of Gundalia, my phone goes off.
"Hello." I answer in the phone.
"Hey Flora. It's Runo." Runo says with a tired voice.
"Hey Runo. Are you ok? You sound a little tired." I ask worriedly.
"Me, Julie, and Alice were having a sleepover. We fell asleep during a movie. We didn't hear anything." Runo says ending with a loud sob.
"Runo, what happened? Tell me." I ask her slowly, already having an idea in my head.
"Someone kidnapped Tigrerra, Gorem, and Hydranoid (the one with 3 heads). Flo what is happening?" Runo asks while sobbing again.
"I know. Can you three get to BBA headquarters? We'll talk then." I ask with a long sigh.
"See you soon. And Flora, find them. Please." She begs me.
"I will. I swear." I reply as I hang up.
"Who was that." Gus asks.
"Runo. My friend. Guys listen up, 2 things. 1, we have a prisoner on ship and he's looked up tight. 2, Runo just called me and Tigerra, Gorem, and Hydranoid were kidnap last night. Get this it happened at a sleepover. Illing's getting bolder. " I explain in the radio.
"Runo's ok right?" Dan asks worriedly.
"She's fine along with Alice and Julie. They're heading to the BBA. Shun, Dan what are you etas?" I ask while I sit down.
"We needed to head back HQ. Something happened with the ship." Dan explains.
"I'll be there we'll be landing in 15 minutes." Shun says.
"Dan when you get to HQ asks the girls questions, I'll go to Vestroia with Gus." I said as I change our course.
"Alright. See you when you get back." Dan says as he gets off the radio.
"Flora, someone is calling my phone for you. I'll put it through to you." Shun says as he gets off.
15 seconds later my phone rings. I pick it up and put it on speaker.
"Hello." I said in the phone.
"Flo. C- can you hear me?" Diablo whispers in the phone.
"Diablo? Is that you?" I ask worriedly.
"Yes. Please Flo, help me. It's Illing. Oh god, Flora, I'm scared." Diablo begs through the phone.
"I'm gonna find you Diablo. Ok. Where are you? Are you hurt?" I ask with tears in my eyes.
"I don't know. Flora help me. Let go of me! Stop!" He screams in the phone.
"Stop looking Flora. Before anyone else gets hurt." Illing's voice says.
"I will find you. Do you hear me? I will find you and if Diablo is dead so help me, I will kill you." I growl to him.
"We'll see." Illing says as he hangs up.
I slowly put my head and fight back tears. I don't need to start crying now. Diablo and the other bakgun need me.
"Flora, was that Illing?" Gus asks worriedly and somewhat knowing the answer.
"Yea. I'm gonna put Illing's head on a pike." I said with a strange anger in my voice.
"Not if I get to him first." Gus says with a sacrtic chuckle.
"Flora, we just landed. We'll call if we run into problems." Shun says quickly.
"Alright. We're heading to Vestroia. Helia, Shun please be careful." I ask as I hang up.
What am I going to do now? That is what I ask myself as we take off.
