The New Feeling

Daath Inn

Tear opened her eyes to the light shining through the window. She sat up as she tried to remember what happened last night.

'I was helping Luke with his hyperresonance.' She tried to think back 'Then nothing...'

Tear decided to find the others and see if they knew anything. She quickly got out of the bed, noting she was still in her dress, and walked to the door. Tear then opened it and went down stairs. She took notice of the group sitting around a table. Tear moved closer, but stopped short when she noticed someone missing.

"Where is Luke?" She asked them.

Daath inn, earlier

Luke woke up from a very short, yet great sleep. He turned to Claire, who was still in a bliss, as she slept. Luke, it seemed, was a master of the art of love making.

He may have used his power to last longer, but all is fair in love and war.

And Claire didn't seem to be complaining.

Quickly getting up he gathered his clothes as he checked the time.

'4 am.' Luke thought as he pulled on his shirt 'Jade isn't up until 6 so I should be good for now.' He pulled on his pants and socks. 'Might as well wander around the city.' He pulled on his coat, slipped on his shoes, grabbed his sword, slipped his revolver through a belt loop, and walked out the door.

Luke looked down the street and saw some of the stores were opening. With no destination in mind he started to wander down the street. After a few minutes he noticed a quaint little cafe. He quickly entered and got a white chocolate mocha.

'This is amazing!' Luke thought as he took a sip and continued walking. He then came to a stop at a familiar store.

Luke looked at the outfit in awe and sadness. 'I would do anything for it, but unless I can pull a couple thousand gald out of my pocket I'm not getting it today.' Luke sighed 'If only gald just appeared when I needed it.' he sighed again and started to walk away. After two steps he stopped.

'Wait a minute. I CAN create gald whenever I need it.' He thought as he slapped his palm into his forehead and throwing away his coffee cup. 'No wonder people think I'm an idiot.' He mused sadly as he created the gald and walked into the store.

The person behind the counter, a young women with blonde hair and brown eyes, looked up as the bell on the door rang. Luke then walked up to her.

"May I help you?" she asked tiredly. Luke looked at her for a few seconds before nodding slightly.

"Yeah I would like to purchase the outfit in the window." Luke told her as he pointed to it. "And I was wondering if you wanted to get a coffee with me." He added with a smile.

"Well if you got the gald, you can have the clothes." she told him "But I don't get off work until 3."

Luke then turned and walked out the door. After a few minutes he came back with two more white chocolate mochas.

"Here." he said as he offered her one. She took it suspiciously.

"Something tells me you are nowhere near awake." Luke said.

"Why did you do this?" She asked curiously. That made Luke stop.

'Why did I do it?' He wondered. 'Is it because I'm a sucker for pretty girls? or maybe I did it because I can?' He mused 'Or maybe it's because...'

"You don't need a reason to help someone." He said, more to himself than her. "So I'm going to help everyone I can, for it's the right thing to do." He finished. She looked at him as she took a sip and raised an eyebrow.

"Okay." she said, in a 'What the hell man' voice, as she brought the cup down. "Are you gonna buy the outfit or what?" she asked him.

"Right yeah." Luke said as he scratched the back of his head. She and him then grabbed the outfit of the mannequin. Luke took the pieces and walked into the change room, after three minutes he walked out in his new outfit. He walked back to the counter and placed a large bag of gald on it.

"Thank you for your purchases." She told him as she eyed the bag. Luke just nodded and walked out. He continued down the street, looking at the shops as he went. He stopped at a bookstore and went in. He quickly started to scan the books until he found an interesting one on hand to hand combat.

He quickly found a place to sit and started to go through it. After a few minutes of drinking his coffee and reading, he noticed his coffee was empty.

'Damn.' Luke thought. 'I was enjoying that. I wish I had some more.' And just like that the coffee had refilled. Luke stared at in shock.

'Whoa, awesome.' Luke thought as he took another drink. He then paid for the book and went to the Cathedral courtyard. Where he noticed a clock in the middle of some flowers.

'5:30 am.' Luke mused. 'Might as well practice some hand to hand.'

Luke practised the movements in the book, referring back to it when he was not sure if he was doing it right. Thirty minutes later he flopped onto the ground, sending the book to his room, with his back on the wall. Luke looked up to see some birds flying above him. Luke smiled as he saw them.

'To be free, like a bird.' Luke mused, not for the first time. 'I wonder what it would feel like?' Luke thought as he moved his hands behind his head as his eyes closed. 'To be able to fly.'

Luke imagined himself flying in the sky. The wind pushing him to new destinations. No one telling him what to do or where to go. He was brought out of his daydream when he felt the ground.

The lack of ground to be specific.

Luke's eyes shot open as he looked around, noticing Daath miles below him. Luke then did what any man would do in that situation.

He closed his eyes and screamed like a little girl.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Luke screamed waiting for impact with the ground. When it never came he opened one eye to see he was just floating there.

'What the hell?' He thought in awe. He then willed himself to go forward and watched as the ground slowly moved below him.

'I'm, I'm actually.' Luke realized 'I'm flying.'

With that Luke shot towards the ground.

"WOO!" He yelled out as he pulled up before he hit the ground. Flying into the streets of Daath, he swerved and curved to avoid people. When he got back to the gate he pulled up and flew back to the Cathedral. He started to fly around it.

"THIS IS SO AWESOME!" Luke yelled out as he flew backwards. He then turned around.

And face planted into a window.

Inside Daath's Cathedral

Legretta woke up for her unconscious state. She quickly sat up and tried to remember how she got there.

'I was fighting the replica and then he hit my gun. Which hit me in the face.' She recalled. 'Someone must have moved me here then.' She deduced as she got out of the bed, even as her body screamed at her to get back into the sheets.

'The Replica could be a threat to the Commandant's plan.' She realized. 'So I should try to find him then and eliminate him.' She found her guns and walked to the door, but stopped as she noticed her reflection.

"You look better with your hair down."

'Maybe I'll try it down today.' She thought with a blush. She quickly shook it off and moved to the door but a loud thud caught her attention. Legretta turned around as she drew her guns. She then noticed what made the sound.

The replica was pressed against the glass and slowly sliding down.

Legretta holstered her guns, her face filled with confusion. After a few seconds she turned to the bed.

'A few more hours of sleep won't hurt.'

Outside Daath's Cathedral

Luke slid off the window and was falling fast. He quickly righted himself and softly landed.

'That hurt.' He thought as he stumbled a bit. He quickly got his bearings, cast First Aid on himself and walked back to the inn.

Daath Inn

Luke walked into the inn and noticed his companions sitting at a table. He moved towards them and took a seat. Everyone turned to him as he did this.

"Where have you been Luke?" Tear asked "And what happened last night?"

Luke took a deep breath "We started working on my hyperresonance when you passed out, I then carried you up to your room and dropped you on a bed. I came back downstairs and started to read a book on the seventh fonon. Then this noble bastard came in and attacked the innkeeper. I threw him through a table and told him I would end him if he attacked either of us again. After that I slept with Claire, the innkeeper. I woke up around 4 and hit the town. After going to a cafe I went and bought this outfit. I went to a bookstore after that and bought a book on hand to hand combat. I relocated myself to the Cathedral courtyard and practiced for a bit and came back here." He finished, out of breath.

"Wait, what?" Tear asked shocked.

"Yeah, I walked from the Cathedral to here." Luke told her.

"No, before that." She told him

"I went to this cafe with this awesome white chocolate coffee thing." Luke replied.

"Before that." She repeated.

"I read a book on the seventh fonon." Luke responded.

"After that." Tear said getting agitated

"...I slept with the innkeeper." Luke said after a moment of silence.

"You had sex with the innkeeper!" Tear exclaimed.

"Tear." Luke said firmly "There are children present." He said as he gestured to Ion and Anise.

"How could you?" She asked quietly.

"Well I took my-." Luke started before Tear cut him off.

"I know how to have sex Luke." She told him. "What I meant was, why did you sleep with her?"

Luke looked at her for a moment and then looked down.

"Because sex is awesome." He told her with a bright smile as he brought his head up.

Before Tear could respond the same noble who was there earlier came back, only he was accompanied by three oracle knights.

"There she is." He exclaimed "She was one of the people who attacked me."

Luke looked at the scene and then got up and approached them, as he gestured to the others to stay back.

"I know you." Luke said. The man inflated at the recognition. "You're the bastard who broke the table." Luke continued. The man turned to see Luke and became a shade of purple.

"And there is the accomplice, Arrest them." The noble yelled. The knights moved to grab Luke, Each of them approaching menacingly.

Then they saw Luke's sword.

"My apologies fon master guardian." The head knight said "But this man has says you assaulted him."

Luke looked confused for a moment, but quickly retorted.

"Yes I attacked him." Luke said "AFTER he attempted to rape here and pulled a knife on me."

"He's lying." The noble screamed.

"Prove it." Luke said with a smirk.

The noble then pulled out his knife and rushed Luke. Luke then grabbed him, disarmed him and pinned him to the wall.

Luke's eyes became cold as he used his left hand to pull out his sword.

"Remember what I said?" Luke asked the man as Luke pointed his sword at the nobles stomach. "I said if you tried that again I would end you." The man turned pale.

"Alright, I admit it. I attacked them, I tried to rape her, just make him stop." The noble screamed as he cried. Luke smiled as he put away his sword.

"That's all I needed to hear." Luke said as he tossed the noble to the knights.

"Get him out of my sights." Luke told the knights. The leader quickly signaled the other two to take the noble away. He then walked up to Luke.

"New guardian huh?" He asked Luke. Luke nodded as he scratched his head.

"How'd ya guess?" Luke asked him in reply.

"You took a moment to acknowledge your post." The knight told him. Luke just nodded. The knight then produced a bag of gald and handed them to Luke.

"That bastard was tough to catch, he has countless crimes. This is for getting him in." The knight told Luke. Luke just waved it off.

"I did it for justice not Gald." Luke told the knight.

"Well you are better than Anise Tatlin." The knight told him.

"How so?" Luke asked.

The knight looked left and right, before leaning in.

"Apparently, she has been sending reports to grand maestro Mohs, just for gald." The knight whispered to Luke. Luke's eyes widened as this was said.

"Well I better get going I hope to work with you again." The knight said as he left. Luke then walked back to the table.

"What did the knight say Luke? Anise asked as none of the party heard the exchange. Luke glared at her a little bit.

"Nothing worthwhile."
