Kazdel
Babel Landship
As he walked through the hallway to meet with Theresa Harrison saw Kal'tsit going somewhere.
"Hello Kal, where are you going?" Harrison asked Kal'tsit becoming curious as to where the Feline was going right now.
"Nowhere special Harrison, simply going to the infirmary to patch up wounded operators." Kal'tsit responded as she went to the infirmary.
"Cold." Harrison responded as he made his way to the office door of Theresa.
And he knocked.
"Come in." Came Theresa's voice as Harrison opened the door, and everything went white.
Victoria
After Kazdel civil war
6:30 AM
In a remote Mansion in Victoria's Capital city Londinium in a large bedroom, the windows covered by heavy curtains to block out the sunlight, was sleeping a Draco that was in his late 20s.
When suddenly a Sarkaz in his late 40s, with black hair and red strand and blue eyes, strolled into the bedroom, he was wearing a butler outfit, a pair of Horns was sprouting from his head an arced backwards, his face had a strong look to it.
"Come now, master Artorias is time to wake up and start your day." The Butler said to his master but seeing that he wasn't waking up the Butler walked up to the curtains and opened them letting the sun coming into the room and disturbing the Draco's sleep.
"Master Artorias is time for you to wake up, come along." Said the Butler as he removed the bed sheet from Harrison whose back had some scars here and there and in front of his chest, of which he had "earned" from his time in Kazdel Civil War as an Operator for Rhodes Island.
And with a grunt, Harrison got up and looked at the Butler, who had a smile on his face.
"What is it Manfred?" Harrison asked the Butler.
"Nothing special sir, I just entered and wanted to inform you that you breakfast is ready. Though I am curious as to why you were sleeping so long usually you are an early riser?" Manfred Told Harrison, then asked him as to why he had slept so long.
"I was dreaming of my time in Kazdel, where I was informed to meet Theresa by W, and the later giving me a Kiss. And that I went to Theresa's office." Harrison said as he put his hand over his mouth recalling the kiss W gave him.
"Hmm... Kazdel's civil war did leave it's scars on everyone that participated in it. Though I am still surprised that you are still thinking of W that Succubus must have been truly vexing if she's haunting you in your dreams." Manfred Commented as he picked up the clothes that were laying on the armchair next to the lamp stand.
"You can say that." Harrison said as he got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom.
15 minutes later
After finishing in the bathroom Harrison dressed in a pair of black trousers, normal shoes, a white shirt and tie, and a black jacket and behind him his tail was jutting out of the clothing.
As he made his way downstairs he made his way towards the Veranda where Manfred was waiting for
"Your breakfast is ready and your morning Newspaper his here, and I believe that you will find some rather interesting development that have happened as of late." Manfred said as he placed the Newspaper on the table.
"Such as what Manfred?" Asked Harrison with a raised eyebrow, wondering what could be so curious as to catch the, hard to get interested, Sarkaz's attention.
"Some peculiar events that happened over at Ursus, as such I won't spoil it and would leave you to find out on yourself, Master Artorias, though I will say that the bears have been caught with their pants down." Manfred Told Harrison, who looked at his Butler
"I wanna ask something Manfred." Harrison asked his butler
"Yes, Mr. Artorias?" Manfred replied.
"Have you ever felt emotions so intense that you simply cannot ignore?" Harrison asked Manfred, who simply let out a chuckle.
"That I have, Sir, however I feel as if that were a long time ago. Now if you may excuse me I will leave to your own devices, after all this mansion isn't going to tidy itself." Manfred requested of Harrison who simply nodded.
"You may as well." Harrison said as Manfred gave a respectful bow and walked out of the veranda and into the mansion to clean up what was needed to be cleaned such as the floors.
Now being by his lonesome Harrison pick's his cup of coffee and proceeds' to read the news paper, the front page of which read: Chernobog Uprising, Reunion takes over the city of Chernobog.
This caused Harrison to raise an eyebrow as if he recalled that his Cousin Talulah was the spokesperson for Reunion and also it's leader...
"Curious." Harrison said to himself, while ignoring the refugee crisis that is probably occurring as of now, and proceeded to open the news paper where further detail were shown about the uprising.
Elsewhere
Ursus
Location Unknown
Rhodes Island Landship HQ.
Rhodes Island was having a bit of a manpower shortage after the rescue of the Doctor in Chernobog and the City being taken over by Reunion, so they were looking for new recruits.
Though she was contacting Harrison and Manfred who were part of the "Old-Guard" group.
In the office a Feline woman with greenish white hair and green eyes, she was wearing a white and green uniform that exposed her shoulders of which the left one had some Originium crystals.
The girl was 14 years of age was on the phone, she had brown hair and oddly shaped ears that mostly resembled a donkey than a cautus.
She was wearing a white frilly shirt underneath a jacket with blue linings which had a Pawn's mark in the center of a triangle and on it were the motto "May I enjoy my life and practice my art. Respected by all men and in all times". She was also wearing a skirt with squares, brown leggings, and a pair of black shoes, she also had 5 rings rings on her hands.
"You think this is a good idea?" Kal'tsit asked Amiya.
"I know you may not like it Kal'tsit it's not as if we have much of choice, and besides we need to replenish our manpower, if we are to face Reunion again." Amiya told Kal'tsit.
"The rescue went bad didn't it?" Kal'tsit Remarked.
"Yes." Amiya answered with a sad tone, not liking being reminded of the large number of fallen operators that gave their lives to ensure hers Doctor's .
"Very well, I'll tell Closure to make a route for Lungmen city then." Kal'tsit said as she closed the phone.
"Now, for the old guard." Amiya said as she started to call Harrison.
With Manfred
As the butler was cleaning up the room he heard the telephone's ringing.
"Who could it possibly be in this ungodly hour?" Asked Manfred wondering who it could be that is calling, and so he proceeded to walk towards the phone to pick it up, though he would be picked by surprise that it would be some former associates from Rhodes Island.
Back with Amiya
"Hello, who is this?" Came Manfred's voice over the phone.
"Manfred, It's me Amiya." The Cautus, said told Manfred in her normal soft-spoken voice.
"Oh Miss Amiya, quite the delight to hear of you again, how have you been?" Manfred asked the Cautus, wondering how she's been.
"I've been fine Manfred, I wanted to requested a favor, and I would like to speak with Harrison." Amiya said catching the Sarkaz's attention.
"Very well, though I will say it upfront that Master Artorias is currently busy with personal... stuff for the lack of better word." Manfred said causing the cautus to nod.
"I understand, I still want to speak to him." Amiya told Manfred with a firmer tone.
"Very well, I will inform Master Harrison right-a-way." Said Manfred.
"Thank you." Amiya said.
"No Problem." Manfred responded as he went to inform Harrison
With Harrison
After putting down the newspaper Harrison finished his coffee and began to wonder what happened to cause Reunion to go into a full on military force.
"Could it Theresis? He perhaps may have sent Sarkaz Mercenaries to serve under Reunion, but considering the roster of persons they have in the command Echelon's they may as well gotten training from the General of Ursus himself. Or perhaps it could be Kashchey? No, that's a stupid thing for me to think the guy's been dead for years." Harrison thought to himself counting the people that would benefit from Chernobog uprising, and thus far there were only two folks.
"Master Harrison, Miss Amiya wishes to speak with you." Came Manfred's voice as he entered the veranda.
"Amiya? What for?" Harrison asked wondering what the girl was calling him for.
"Indeed." Manfred responded with a nod.
"Alright." Harrison said as he got up from his seat, and went to the phone to talk with Amiya.
After what felt like minutes someone finally responded.
"Hello Amiya." Came Harrison's voice over the phone.
"Harrison, I hope that I haven't caught you in an inappropriate time." Amiya said an in an apologetic tone.
"Hardly little bunny. Now what's the reason you called me?" Harrison asked Amiya referring to her by the nickname he used when he was part of Babel.
"I wanted to request a favor of you and Manfred." Amiya told Harrison, who raised an eyebrow.
"Of what?" Harrison asked wondering what this favor could be about.
"I...I want you to come and work as an operator for Rhodes Island." Amiya said after finding the courage to ask Harrison.
"Out of curiosity what happened to your operators, if you are calling two of the "Old-Guard"?" Asked Harrison.
"We were on a recovery mission to Chernobog, a few days ago, to recover the Doctor from the Sarcophagus we placed him in, but it went awry after the Uprising and the Catastrophe happened." Amiya informed Harrison, who nodded in understanding.
"So, you want me and Manfred to come over and help you, with Reunion group, why?" Harrison asked Amiya.
"Your cousin was the one that orchestrated the Uprising." Amiya informed Harrison, though she cringed a bit, since she knew that Harrison and Talulah were close as from he told her when she was 11 Harrison would often meet with Talulah, when the Duke of Ursus allowed it.
"Tell me why I shouldn't call you out on such slander?" Harrison asked Amiya.
"Ace faced against her as we prepared to leave Chernobog." Amiya informed Harrison getting a sigh from the Draco.
"Anything else that I may need to know about?" Harrison asked Amiya.
"I think that you'd like to know that W was involved in the uprising when she attacked me, and that I am going to meet Kal'tsit over at Lungmen city." Amiya told Harrison, catching his attention at the mention of W.
"Alright, sign us up. We will meet you at Lungmen. Good bye." Harrison responded as he closed the phone.
Amiya for her part let out a sigh.
With Harrison.
"So... how did it go?" Manfred asked Harrison, who turned and looked at the man.
"Pack up we are going to Lungmen." Harrison told Manfred.
"I beg your pardon?" Manfred asked Harrison.
"I mean what I mean, we are going to Lungmen and are going to meet with Rhodes Island, pack up everything even your gloves, and my sword." Harrison told Manfred who nodded.
"Very well sir." Manfred said as he went to pack up the combat equipment.
Leaving Harrison by his lonesome in a contemplating posture, as he thoughts drifted at the meeting with W.
Though he felt far from prepared, as he felt like she'd be more than happy to stick a knife in his neck.
"Lord above give me strength." Harrison said the prayer, hoping that when he met with W he'd be ready.
