"Kaden... what have you gotten yourself into now?"
"Oh well, no problem. Asleep here and there... Good thing I gave you another chance, right?"
"Maybe..."
"Indieglut Lugh..." Haseo breathed after Kuhn told him what Kudan said.
They sat in the 'Serpent of Lore,' a place that had been abandoned for so long. Luckily, Yata had agreed to meet with them, since Kaden was often tied to AIDA.
"There of all places..." Ella whispered
"What?"
"You don't get it?"
"No... what am I missing."
"Yata, do you have any footage of 'R:1?'"
"No..." Yata answered.
"But I do."
Ella
turned and frowned.
"Balmung? You're late." Yata growled.
"Yeah, yeah. What footage do you need sweetie?"
Ella blushed and Yata growled again.
"Indieglut Lugh, eight years ago."
"Alrighty."
Balmung jumped over to the 'Serpent of Lore' and began pressing buttons.
"That, and that, and here!"
The screen flickered and came to life.
A person moved across the screen. Another person appeared behind her. The first one was a wave master, and the smaller one was a heavyblade.
"Miriam, what's that noise?"
"What noise sis? I don't hear anything."
"It's... strange..."
The first voice was obviously Miriam, but the second was unrecognizable.
"KADEN!"
Miriam's character pushed Kaden behind her. A PC rushed out and struck her, hard. She flew back, knocking Kaden back as well.
Kaden's scream ended the footage.
"My god I look fat in that image."
"Miriam?" Ella whispered
"Hiya!"
"Ella, who are you talking to?" Saku asked.
Saku had gotten closer to Ella in the past months. She really seemed to miss Kaden.
Everyone did.
The voice ebbed.
"Umm no one."
"Who was that that attacked her? And it was just a PC... what did it matter..." Haseo asked.
"The PC was infected, it was basically a Data Bug."
Silence.
"Ella, let's go, before things get worse."
"Yeah, of course."
