-Chapter 9-

My ordinary life

-Ventisca town-

"Then we could check out that shop near the Windmill" Pyra discussed her plans with Rex.

"It sounds nice to me , lets go back and claim the money" Rex drove faster his Rider Machine before entering Ventisca.

They have been staying at Ventisca over a week since their arrival...

It was suppoused to be a short stay , only a night..maybe 2 to gain more supplies...

Yet..they decided to stay a bit longer..

"Hi Rex!" Greeted a fellow mercenary to him.

"Yo!" Greeting back both enjoyed driving through town.

Ventisca had everything ; Rex couldn't help but feel nostalgia..so similar to Fonsett yet different.

Pyra however..

Felt alive , smell the flowers..be a normal girl and not a destructive weapon for once..

"Get your eyes on the road Rex" Called Azurda from Rex's helmet , he knew his Grandson liked to drive faster better keep an eye out for that.

"Sorry Gramps" Rex apologized before stop , they arrived at the small house bought by them.

Venstica didn't have much citizens and considering the fortune Rex had with [Kamen Rider Lupin ; Genm ; Cronus etc] powers..he bought a small house.

Azurda cried that day ; They grow up so fast...one day they live on your back and next they are buying houses and forming families.

"I will prepare dinner , you can go to the guild and claim the gold" Said Pyra ; Rex nodded agreeing before leave

Pyra took a deep breath before entering...

Mythra will pop up again and she didn't want to make a scene.


Cooking is something therapeutic to Pyra ; just relax herself chopping some vegetables and watch them boil..it makes all her worries go.

[Pyra we need to talk] Mythra echoed with a concern voice.

It shut ups all her worries except one.

[Mythra we talked about it , only this week..let me have a week of peace] Pyra choppen another potato before grabbing another

[You said the same thing last week , you can't escape from our duty] Her harsh voice didn't make it any better.

For how long will she run away?

[Mythra...please I know you have been enjoying it as well] Pyra wasn't stupid and she knows it would be a lie deny it.

[Yes..I have probably been having the Best weeks on my existence , however I can't deny a storm is approaching] Her foresight has been acting weird showing her conflicting visions...

Them inisde Elysium fighting against Malos...

And weird ones..however she can't precisely describe them.

The most accurate description she could say is : Barcode Monster.

[We are not having a vacation Pyra ; we are stopping Malos before he reaches Elysium before us] She had to snap out of that "Normal" life idea as she is the Aegis nothing will be normal.

[Weird , considering our initial goal..] That made Mythra silent...

[...Do you still want it?] Pyra asked a bit afraid of her answer.

[I-I don't know Pyra..what about you?] Her voice broke a bit , totally insecure of what she wants now..

Forget everything and start a new life with Rex..

Fight Malos on what seems a suicidal mission..

It wasn't much to pick anyway.

[You know my answer ; I'm insecure now..] Pyra thanks to her connection with Mythra felt everything as well..

[Me too..Rex has made me feel..alive] Her mind travelled back to simple moments..

The Carnival ; Enjoy mundane activities like shopping ; meeting people who won't judge her..

She didn't do it personally..but through Pyra's eyes..

[And he is still a mystery box , all those powers] A fact both of them couldn't ignore as well..

Rex used his powers only when they hunted or did a mission for the local guild..

Pyra giggled and hummed a little melody making Mythra roll her eyes..

[Please don't make me remember that] Really there were days she just wanted to smash Rex really hard to drag them into his "Weird Rider Powers Shenanigans".

[Don't deny it! you loved the Mammoth Genome suit! even that finisher move! how was it called again? Striking finish?] Pyra remembered it as well , Mythra almost comes out due to their new "Armor" thanks to ReVice's power.

[Stamping Finish] Corrected Mythra with a small blush..Don't blame her! She just thinks the suit looks..nice , That's all!.

Both sides of the same coin talked for hours about their happy days at Ventisca ; How much they have experienced in so little time.

[Just a few days more Myhtra] Pleaded Pyra not wanting to lose her happiness.

Mythra groaned before answering :

[Fine , only one week more then we depart]

[Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!] She cried to her like a small girl whose Big Sister let her play a little more.

There were some minutes of silence before Pyra talked..

[Mythra] The Red Aegis prepared a table for 3 , she did her best preparing a nice soup.

[Yes?] Asked she wanting to rest again..

[When you will meet him?] And here we go again...

[When its necessary Pyra , I can't just go out and say "Hello Pal! how are ya?!"] Being harsh again on herself , Mythra didn't want to come out..

[Should have known..] Lying to Rex wasn't good to her..The young man has been a total gentleman to them.

Not treating them like Blades..but like Friends..

...

Something about that word Pisses her off..

[He's not a bad guy , I can tell he at least treats us better than Addam did] She didn't want to sound rude..but it was a fact..

[Yes...and I don't know why] After all he is doing she doesn't know anything to repay him...

They didn't deserve him..

"I'm Home!" Rex came back with Azurda..making her snap of her thoughts

"Ahh! I can tell we will have another fantastic dinner" The smell of soup made both bellies rumble..

"Yeah! Thanks Pyra" Said he before going to wash his hands..

Pyra smiled..maybe..and just maybe..her life has some worth after all..she just has to find a place in this bizarre world.
