Chapter 14: Escape from Madrid
Atlantic Ocean, 4:45 am
You look at that situation ... Gerel has come to Earth looking for revenge and nobody does anything to stop it!
She thought Ajatar, furious, as she headed for the empress's quarters.
When she arrived at her destination, she found Jeremiah standing in front of the door.
"May I help you, miss?"
"I have to talk to the empress!"
"She's sleeping, and she does not want to be disturbed."
"It's urgent."
"For no reason."
"Then with the defense minister!"
"She sleeps too."
"All asleep ..."
"Natural, since it's 4 am."
"True."
"You can tell me if you want."
"Those aliens are hostile, they want to attack the Earth! Gerel, their sovereign, is thirsty for revenge towards mankind! If you want to win the war you will have to attack first, even using the FLEIJA if that is the case! "
"I see ... I'll report as soon as she wakes up."
"Thank you…"
"Nothing."
Ajatar snorted, then turned her heels away.
I can only hope that Jeremiah will really report to Cornelia, and especially that she will listen to my warnings.
She told herself, though she was skeptical in her heart.
Madrid, 11:00 am
She was having breakfast with her little brother Garcia when suddenly someone knocked on the door.
Who will ever be?
She wondered, depressed.
She went to open and found herself in front of Roberta, who was staring at her seriously. Instinctively she hugged her.
"You're back!" Nadie exclaimed, happy.
But the woman remained cold, and said:
"Not to be brief by you."
"And so why?"
Roberta pointed up into the sky, and when the landlady saw the ship gaped.
"What's that?" She asked.
"An alien spaceship. This has arrived on Madrid. And it is not alone, others have appeared over various cities of Europe and the world. "The maid explained.
"I did not notice it!"
"There is no time for talk, we have to leave Madrid and head to a safe place, until their intentions are understood."
"To go where?"
"We will decide on the way. We have to hurry up, before the streets fill with traffic. Prepare your luggage and your car, the sooner we leave, the better! "
"Thank you…"
"But what a thank you! Had it been for me I would have left alone! Do not believe that she forgave your behavior yesterday! I only do it for Garcia! "
"Ok ..."
"Now move!"
"Yup."
Tokyo, 7:15 pm
Two cars and a motorbike had stopped in front of the Ashford institute: from the first two the complete Gremory family descended, Akeno, Kiba, Koneko and Xenovia; from the third Issei. Minerva was waiting for them, near the wide open gates.
"Welcome, I was waiting for you." She greeted them.
"Take us immediately to the basement. That colossal spaceship gives me the creeps. "
"Of course, Venelana ... Follow me, please."
She drove hrt guests to the high school library, then opened the secret passage and sent them down into the basement. Immediately they were greeted by a stench of closed.
"I have not been here for three years ..." Minerva said.
"Yes, she hears!" Rias commented, closing her nose.
"It does not smell like violets, but you'll have to make do with it."
"We know it. Where are our rooms? "
"I will show them to you. Follow me, please. "
