Hello. I know I said I would put a lemon in here if people asked, but then I realized two things. One, I am going to put the lemon in the next chapter, because there was already too many things to write in this one before I get to the lemon, and two, I remembered I am going to have to write people's attacks pretty soon, and there will be no way of getting out of that. Anyways, thank you all for the support. Yet again, I own nothing but Jacob, for he is a slave for me to control.

Jacob woke up at the normal time, which was six thirty. He started doing his push-ups, sit-ups, etc. When he got finished with all of his warm ups, it was roughly seven. He decided that was as good a time as any to making breakfast.

Alice was curled up next to a tree. He walked over, and said, in a loud voice, "Alice, wake up. The mornings half over, and we haven't even eaten breakfast yet. Get your rear in gear."

Alice woke up, looked at Jacob with sleep filled eyes, and said, "What's with all this noise so early in the morning?" She then rubbed her sleep filled eyes, and said, "I am seriously regretting ever deciding to travel with you. Anyways, make me something to eat."

Jacob rolled his eyes, and said, "Do you think of anything other than food? Anyways, it is almost done. I have some sausages, hotcakes, and scrambled eggs."

Alice nodded, and when the food was done, they both sat down to eat. It was a rather good meal, if Jacob said so himself. Which he did. "That meal was rather nice, actually." "Hm. I agree." Alice stated flatly. Jacob raised his eyebrow, and said, "Did you just compliment me?" After he said that, Alice rolled her eyes. "Even an idiot can get something right every once in awhile."

Jacob shrugged. They then packed their stuff, and continued towards the next town. Jacob looked at their map, and estimated that they should arrive there just before evening. He looked up from it, and struck up a conversation with Alice.

Jacob looked over at Alice, and asked,"Anyways, other than watching my fabulous adventure play out, what reason do you have to travel around with me?" Alice replied, "I am going around as a food connoisseur. I am excited to go to Illiasburg, because of an amazing food that they have there. The Sutherland Inn at Illiasburg is known for their Happiness Honey Filled Ama-ama Dango. Any gourmet would salivate at the thought of tasting such a magnificent food item such as that one."
Jacob nodded, saying under his breath, "I should have guessed it would be food related."

They continued traveling, passing a strange plant in the middle of the road. However, Jacob payed it no heed, as it might just be a plant native to this world. No need to inspect it. He wanted to get to Illiasburg as fast as possible.

Alice appeared next to Jacob, startling him a bit. "You ignored it? That was smart."

Jacob looked at her for a second, and then asked, "Wait, you were gone? And what did I ignore?" "I hid because there was a chance of combat. The plant in the middle of the road back there was a monster."

Jacob looked back, and shrugged. "Well, there is no reason to attack it. It doesn't seem to be hurting anyone." And with that, he turned and continued walking to Illiasburg.

They stopped on a cliff near Illiasburg. Jacob turned to Alice, and said, "Well, here we are. However, it seems like people here do not enjoy the presence of monsters. Is there any way you could possibly…" Jacob trailed off, not wanting to insult her.

Alice glared at him, and said, "I do not like having to be a human. Why should I have to take on the form of a human?"

Jacob thought about this for a second, and then smiled evilly. "If you don't turn into a human, you will never get your Ama-ama Dangos."

Alice glared at him for a straight minute, and then without speaking a word, turned into a human. He felt itchy on his head and his butt, but when he went to scratch his head, he noticed something. His fox ears were gone. "If I have to look totally human, you do too." Alice said annoyedly. Jacob shrugged, and they went into the city.

The first thing Jacob noticed about the city was how empty it was. There was nobody anywhere. All of the houses were fully closed up. Jacob looked over at Alice. "I would think in a city like this, there would be quite a bit of bussle, even in the evening." When he said that, Alice looked around, and replied, "Yes, it is a bit strange."

As they got near to the center of town, Jacob saw some sort of commotion. He got to cover, and looked around. Alice was gone, which was an amazing sign. Jacob sighed. He could already tell this wouldn't be fun.

Jacob crept up until he was on the outskirts of the town center. What he saw amazed him. It was a lizard Faunus with a large sword. She had beaten about twenty people, who were all on the ground at her feet. He could hear them groaning. There were three more people fighting, but none of them stood a chance. They were taken down like trash.

Suddenly, he heard the lizard Faunus yell out, "Well? Are you just going to watch while I take control of this city? Or is one of you going to be a hero and try to face me? Well? Hurry up and decide!"

It took Jacob about a millisecond to decide what he planned on doing. He stood straight up, and started walking towards the lizard Fausus. When he got right up to her, he said, "Excuse me miss, but you are disturbing the peace, and that is not ok. I am going to have to ask you to leave this city. If you would be so kind."

This shocked the woman, who looked at Jacob for a couple seconds. She then asked, "Is that all you have to say to me? Please go?" To which Jacob responded with pulling his swords out, grimacing at how they were no longer beautiful, but ugly, and he said, "If you don't leave, I will evict you."

The woman's eyes lingered on the blades for a second, like she had seen them before. Maybe she had seen the broadsword that they were combined with. Either way, however, she picked up her sword, and said, "Well then, I guess we are going to fight, aren't we? Comeon! I will even let you go first."

Jacob smiled, thinking that her cockyness would be her undoing. He rushed forward, and did an overhead swing with both Katanas. Suddenly, Granberia vanished. He felt something trip him, causing him to fall on his back.

Granberia had appeared behind him. He shot to his feet. Granberia looked at him, and said, "You're still green. I commend you for your bravery for coming out after most of the adults were hiding, but still. It was foolish. You are young, so a mistake like that is to be expected."

Jacob tried to come up with a witty comeback, but just blurted out, "I am not green. You're green. Haven't you seen your scales recently?"

Before he could contemplate the full range of his stupidity, he felt a huge force hit into his stomach. Next thing he knew, he was in quite a bit of pain, and the woman was holding him up against a wall. She said in an annoyed tone, "Anyways, where did you get those swords." Jacob replied, "I made them." Which he had. He technically forged the original versions of the swords himself. However, the snake woman was not happy with that answer, and so he felt a lightning quick knee to the stomach.

The lady asked again, "Where did you get those swords?" Jacob replied, "A friend gave them to me." Which he was rewarded with another knee.

Her voice was dead serious. "Where did you get those swords." Jacob wheezed, and said, "Ok, the original swords were forged by me. They were turned into these monstrosities by some ass-hole I met yesterday. Are you happy, ass-hole?" He received another knee. He was pretty sure all of his internal organs in that area had exploded by now. Suddenly, he heard Alice say behind Granberia, "Excuse me, Granberia? What are you doing?" Granberia dropped Jacob, and turned, with a look of shock on her face. "Y… you?" She then fell to one knee. Jacob continued to wheeze on the ground, feeling pain like he had never felt it before. Granberia said, "I was going to destroy these annoying heros." Alice said, "And on whose orders?" "I decided to on my own."

Alice looked at her with an annoyed face, and said, "Go away you annoyance." Granberia started stammering, "But if I go now, more heroes will show up!" Alice said, even more annoyed, "I told you to go away. If you keep on going berserk like this, how am I going to be able to eat the Ama-ama Dangos?"

Granberia continued, "I could just take over the city first if you want something like that!" Alice looked at her with a pained expression, and she said, "How can I go sightseeing with such an unsightly event going on. And also, is this how you show your loyalty Granberia? Making me repeat myself three times? I told you to go away."

Granberia closed her eyes in submission, and said, "If that is your will. Then, if you will excuse me." And with that, Granberia vanished without a trace.

Alice walked over to Jacob, and started to stand him up. When she did, Jacob said, "Aww, you do care." Suddenly, he felt a blow right to the top of the head, knocking him back down. He started to get back up, and, seeing Alice leaving him, started to follow.

I am so thankful for all the support. As I said before, lemon in next chapter. Thank you all for reading, and have a wonderful day, readers.
