Well I'm glad for Master Alucard for helping me out on both of my stories, and Sydon for replying to my other story.

Flashback Starts-Flashback ends (I'll be sure to type it in as well.)

Last time,

Lance and Blake went their separate ways. They had promised to keep contact by mailing each other every week.

But something is going to happen to them. And it might be their last glances of Earth by the end of this mess.

"Welcome! Where are you to go?" A nice voice replied from the other side of the desk.

"Oh, I'd like to take my test to try to be a Raven here." Lance said shakily.

"Oh sir please. Don't be nervous, everyone was when they first came here. Even, him." The clerk just pointed to a name.

"Anyway sir, what's your real name?"

"Lance Gunner."

"Your registry name?" Lance had to think about that one. At his hometown, they just called him by his real name. Then he thought of something he liked..

"Zero."

"Okay, now all I have to do is look at your letter you have received and you'll be able to try out for the test."

"Uh, oh! That letter! I think it's right here." After a few minutes of struggling, Lance finally found the note he was looking for. "Here it is... miss?"

"How about you just call me Mira."

"Okay miss Mira, here is the qualification papers." Lance was becoming less nervous and more hyper. He had already lost his patience while walking all the way here. His AC would be brought a few days later.

"Okay! Your ready!" Mira was turning around to her seat as she heard Lance ask a question.

"Um, Mira? When will I take the test?" He had just remembered that question. He was going to say it sooner as he gave her the papers.

"Well, you could take it now, or wait till tomorrow."

"If you go today you might make a friend that is also new to the Raven fold." "His name is Harry. But he registered under the name of Apple Boy. He's also my little brother." Mira said with a laugh at the end.

"Really? I wish I had my sister with me. My whole family was killed by a Raven. My purpose is to find him and show him the mercy he once showed my parents and sister." Zero was becoming really mournful right now.

And Mira was sensing this. She knew something that most others did not know. She just had to make sure.

"Um, Zero? I hate to bring back a sad past, but what was your sister's name?"

"Why would you want to know?"

"Just thought I might know her."

"Well, I guess I could tell you this. All I can remember about her name is what people had told me. Her name was... Crystal." Zero, for some reason, had almost forgotten her name.

I knew it! This is the boy that I had seen all those years ago. And I can't believe that he has come so far...

Mira had thought this as she looked through his battle records. His shortest match was 2 minutes and 16 seconds against a Guy named Blake.

"Well I guess since he's your little brother, I guess I'll go ahead and take my test now." Zero had said once he thought about her brother.

"Alright then! Tell my brother I said good luck and good luck to you to mister Gunner!"

"Alright thanks Mira!"

Hate it? Review in the nicest way possible. Like it? Just say so!

ZM - Updated, all those typos from 3:48 AM should now be gone. Lol.
