Chapter 3
"So tell me? Where are we going?" Bido asked as the chimeras entered the train.
"How can you forget? And today of all days," Martel teased.
"Wait… What day is it?!"
"August 11," Dorochet said and smirked.
"R-Really? We're going there?" the lizard chimera asked, exited.
"Yep. Hopefully they haven't demolished it yet," Roa added taking out the new newspaper.
Riza received a hard punch to the gut, as the 'demon's' fist made contact.
At the moment, it felt like Déjà vu.
"What? Done already? My, you're pathetic," he taunted.
She was holding her stomach when she noticed that his voice seemed familiar.
"Who are you?" she asked.
"What's it ya?"
"You sound familiar… And those eyes…" she glared at them.
He hesitated for a moment before asking: "Are you from the military?"
"And if I am?"
"Great… And here I thought you guys gave up on lookn' for me," he sighed in frustration.
"Are you saying you're?!"
"These're the things we need," the pirate said and gave an old man a piece of paper.
The man had a long, thin mustache and was deathly pale.
"And you betta' not run away. We'd be sendn' someone with ya to make sure ya don't do nothn' stupid," he added and motioned someone from the ship to come.
"Take the gramps and get the things. If he runs, kill him," he whispered and smirked.
"Roger that, captain."
"So… What'll we do once we're there?" Martel asked as she looked out of the window.
"I don't know… Drink something maybe? Or just…pahh I have no idea…" Dorochet sighed.
A silence engulfed them as they actually had no idea what do one once they reached the Devil's Nest.
"I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it," Roa said reading the newspaper.
"Maybe… we could… em… Make graves…? I mean… I know their bodies are gone and all… but just a stone… I mean… Mister Greed and everyone else there were like a family to us…" Bido murmured.
All three looked at him with smiles and nodded.
"It's the least we could do I guess," the snake chimera said.
"But you can't be!" she almost yelled and backed away.
Just then, a ray of moon light landed on the female military. The 'demon' almost shouted an 'seriously?' when he saw her.
At that, he lowered his weapons and stepped in front of her.
"Long time no see Tynan," she said as the ray faded.
"Same to you, Riza Hawkeye," he said and narrowed his eyes.
"What are you doing here?" he added.
"Looking for a 'demon' that is apparently a chimera. What are you doing here?" she asked.
"Oh you know… Still going from place to place. Got a new job now too," he answered and shrugged.
"And what's this new job?"
"Bounty hunting," he smirked.
She looked at him in shock, but shook it off. She asked another thing with a straight face: "So you have a job here or something?"
"Not really… Well sure there are people with bounties on their heads but no one I'd wanna fight. I just came by on a visit."
"Visit what?"
"The place where they were turned."
"I see… But that place is a pail of rubble. And you'll have to come with me first. The Colonel has ordered be to see what is going on here. If you don't, he'll send an entire military squad after you."
"How can I be sure you won't try and kill me or somethn'?"
"You can't," she smirked and started heading out of the forest.
"Get to work slave! We ain't got all day ya know?" the pirate yelled as the old man exited the sand sailing ship.
"This way," he motioned and pulled him along.
The two reached a small town and quickly found a store. There, the pirate, waited outside while the 'slave' went to get what was needed.
Once he entered the store, he immediately saw the man dressed in a blue uniform.
"Hello there," the military greeted when he saw the geezer.
"Greeting…" he greeted back.
"Mister Victor, here is your order," the sales woman said giving Victor his bag.
"You're not from around here are you, sir?" he asked one he fully took in the other man's appearance.
"In fact… I believe you are from Xing? Am I right?"
"That is true… Or was true… I am banished."
"And why is that?"
"For trying to kill the emperor," he smirked, like he was proud of it.
"I see… And what is your name, if I may know?" Vic gave him a smirk of his own.
"My name? It's Lee. I guess you're Victor? What interest do you have in someone like me?"
"Let's just say, I need some information regarding Xing. If you would to help me, I could free you from those pirates."
"When do we start?"
"A few more… A few more things and I'll be on the top. And then I'll change everything. I'll make sure no one like you –Hughes is killed again," Roy said to himself as he looked out the window.
