Okay. This chapter is about Serenity's date with Havoc. There's still some fighting though... so... don't worry! nd there are some surprise guests too...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Uh Havoc? Where is it that we're going anyway?"
"Oh... nowhere that special..."
Havoc led Serenity, who was blindfolded, through the crowded city and took her to the top of a large, grassy hill. He took off her blindfold and she gasped at the sight of the city from what looked like a mountain to her. Serenity's eyes kept shining when she went into the little house on the top of the hill, too. She ran up the rest of the way, and right into the house. It was dark inside, so Serenity looked around for a candle to light. She found one and Havoc threw her his lighter and she lit the candle.
Once the light was on, Serenity saw something strange. She noticed that the entire house was... empty. There weren't even any bugs, which surprised her even more.
"Uh, Havoc? What's with this place? It's completely empty."
Havoc wasn't there. Serenity shone the light to where he was before, but he was gone. There was a crash coming from upstairs and Havoc fell through the ceiling along with someone else.
The other guy was a tall, brown-haired, brown-eyed guy with a blue and white uniform on. He fell on top of Havoc and Havoc was smashed underneath him. Serenity walked slowly to the other guy and asked, "Excuse me. But, who are you?" The man looked up and smiled.
"Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Mullin, Mullin Shetland. I was hiding here and when I heard someone come in, I panicked and this guy came upstairs and then the floor broke. Funny huh?"
Serenity couldn't help but giggle. She helped them up and Mullin dusted off his uniform. Havoc stared at it strangely.
"What uniform is that exactly? It's not ours."
"Oh this? I am a Musket soldier on the Silvanna."
Havoc stared at him with a stupid look on his face.
"The wha...?"
"Oh, you'll never see it. The Silvanna's up in the sky."
Mullin looked and pointed upwards to the sky. Serenity looked too. Havoc just sat there and stared at Mullin. He was starting to get a little angry. (oooooooh... jealousy!)
There was a crash outside and Mullin ran to the door. Outside, there were two very strange looking ships attacking the town. They looked like giant white stars with spider legs. Serenity looked at them with a terrified look on her face. Havoc saw the ships and asked Mullin, "What the hell are those things!"
"They're the Guild. They're the ones I was hiding from. I think it looks like they're looking for something."
Serenity backed up a little and bumped into someone. She turned around and saw a boy, about nineteen, with medium length white hair and a braid on the left side. She tried to run, but he grabbed her arm. Mullin and Havoc turned and saw Serenity struggling in the boy's arms. The boy covered her mouth as a giant ship flew by. He sighed a sigh of relief when they were gone.
Serenity got free of him and ran to Mullin and Havoc. The boy stood up straight and smiled. Mullin stepped forward and said, "Dio! What are you doing here!"
"Oh, I was just helping. That was my sister's ship that flew by. I think she's looking for the litle girl."
Serenity wondered who his sister was and why she was trying to find her. She walked over to Dio and asked him, "Dio. What is your sister's name? Why is she looking for me?"
"My sister is Queen Delphine. She told me the other day that she was coming here to look for a little girl. She said that you are 'another key to Exile.'"
Mullin and Havoc looked at each other and gasped.
"Another key! I thought only Alvis and Alex were the keys!"
"Apparently, there is one more. And she's in this room right now."
-----------------------------Central HQ-------------------------
Hughes was pacing back and forth in his office, thinking to himself, I hope they're both okay... Havoc better not try anything funny or I'll...I'll... He sighed.
"Oh. what's the point!"
Roy came in the room as Hughes was putting on a coat.
"Hughes wait! I got a call from Havoc! They are on their way back here."
"But, why?"
"He said that it was urgent!"
--------------------------- ------------------------------------
Havoc, Mullin, and Serenity ran as fast as they could towards Headquarters. When they finally got there, Serenity was pulled backwards by someone. She looked behind her and saw a woman with a pale face, gold eyeshadow, a large black dress, and a big, half circle crown on her head.
"Delphine!"
"That's right..."
