Sorry guys! Just finished midterm. Ugh I so done with school! Anyways...yea...enjoy!

Disclaimer: I own nothing except my OCs.

"Sorry I'm late you guys." Maki was breathing heavily after running to make in time. "I think I have figured out why these disasters are occurring." The girls sat around at a table. Maki explained the theory that Lycid had told her earlier. "If this theory is correct, then we need to protect the jewel and find out who is behind all of this." Lucy sighed and leaned back in her chair.

"Hinata and I tried to get information from an old lady but she disappeared and we couldn't find her afterwards. " Maki looked at Lucy with interest.

"Did she tell you anything important?" Lucy sighed again.

"Nothing we didn't already know. She told us that these storms have been constant and have destroyed homes and businesses. She warned us to be careful." Lucy finished her story.

"Well we found this." Nami reached into pocket and showed off the compass. "It looks like a compass but look." Nami pulled out her own compass and set it next to the other compass. Her compass was pointed straight ahead while the foreign compass was pointed straight to the right. "This compass doesn't point North." Maki reached over and grabbed the compass and examined it.

"You're right." Maki confirmed. "This seems to be pointing somewhere else." Maki stood up from her seat. "Let's see where it goes." The girls followed the compass. The walked for 10 minutes before they reached a destination. "This is..." They were at the Royal Cosmos Museum, supposably the current home of the infamous Union Jewel, but the jewel moved around so often no one was able to really pin point it. "Why does it lead here?" There was a sudden scream and a flash of lighting. There was a tornado headed straight for them. The girls jumped out of the way and the tornado hit a building causing it to collapse. The building parts almost hit a bunch of civilians but Maki stopped the parts in mid air and held it there so that the civilians could run before she released it. Orihime had activated a shield so that nothing would fall on the fleeing civilians. As suddenly as it had came, the storm disappeared. 'What is going on?' Maki thought in confusion as the others helped any hurt civilians. Maki walked up the steps of the museum and entered the museum. The museum security was stuck under some rubble and were receiving help from Hinata. Maki entered the museum's main hall. She walked down the halls until she found it. The Union Jewel. The compass was moving rapidly in the direction of the jewel. Maki stuffed the compass into her pocket and walked back to the other girls. The security guards rushed passed Maki at the entrance, not even taking notice of her.

"So. Did you find anything?" Nami asked. Maki nodded her head and saw a police officer walk up to them. The officer was clearly a Phythea in his early thirties.

"Are you girls alright?" The officer asked. The girls looked at each other before nodding at the same time. "Good, because I need to ask you girls some questions back at headquarters." Maki's glare on the officer hardened as he pulled out a badge with the title "Detective" engraved at the top. "The name's Detective Tarks. I'm hope you girls are smart enough to come without problem." Nami was about to fight back when Maki held her back.

"No officier." Maki responded. "There are no problems." The girls were brought to Mergton City Police Station to be questioned about what happened before and after the natural disasters. Maki was currently being interrogated by Tarks.

"So. What were you doing in the museum?" Maki signed.

"I was just checking something." Tarks eyebrow went up.

"What could that possibility be?" Maki smirked.

"Nothing too important." Tarks tsked as he looked through some files.

"If I am correct, you are familiar with Lycid Flaster." This grabbed Maki's attention. Tarks noticed this and continued. "Well she was found dead in an alley way this afternoon." Maki's heart stopped for a second. 'Lycid's...dead?!' Maki thought in total shock. Right then an there, Tarks slammed both hands on the table and made Maki jump from her seat. "You do know something! Tell me everything!" Maki recovered from the sudden shock and coughed.

"Well..." Maki started. "She found me at the library and explained a theory about the sudden occurrence of natural disasters."

"What interest do you have with these natural disasters? Investigating is not for civilians." Maki signed. She didn't want to pull out this card but at this point, if what Tarks had said about Lycid is true, they need to catch the enemy before he reaches his goal: The Union Jewel.

"Well Detective. I'm not ordinary civilian." Maki pulled out her Lieutenant badge and flashed in from of Tarks. Tarks stood there in shock.

"You're...a Legion Lieutenant?" Maki smiled in response.

"Not just any Legion Lieutenant but the Lieutenant of the legendary Head Commander Hikari Ōtsutsuki." Maki responded in a slightly bragging tone. Tarks was absolutely speechless. "Now I need you yo answer some of my questions. What happened to Lycid?" Tarks coughed in his hand to recover from shock.

"Well...she was stabbed in the chest. There were no weapons recovered from the scene." Tarks explained. "Why is the Legion interested in a murder case?"

"We aren't." Maki replied quickly. "But Lycid helped me figure out what has been going on with these natural disaters. I have a feeling that if we find the one who killed Lycid, we will find the one responsible for all of these natural disasters." Maki paused. "Release my comrades. I need to talk to them." Tarks scampered a bit before reply.

"A-Yes! Right away!" He saluted and ran out of the room. Maki sat down and grabbed the folders with Lycid's information in it. Maki stared at Lycid's picture in slight guilt. If only she stayed longer, this would not have happened. Lycid would still be alive.

"Your work won't be in vain." Maki said out load. "I promise you that much."

A cloaked figure walked into a dark alley, beyond annoyed.

"Damn it!" He shouted to himself. "I wish I hadn't lost that stupid compass! Ugh!" An object started vibrating in his pocket. He reached for the device and answered it. "What is it Shax? I'm a little frustrated right now and I don't need your ass to make it worse."

"Must I remind you that you are below me Aldinach." Shax emphasized. Aldinach froze for a bit before scoffing.

"Whatever. What do you want?"

"You have been careless Aldinach."

"What are you talking about? I almost have the jewel. I just need to recover the compass."

"The Legion is here." Aldinach stood in shock. "Because of your carelessness, ours enemies are suspicious. We want that jewel by tomorrow, no later."

"What?!" Aldinach shouted. "There is no way-"

"You have no choice." Shax replied calmly. "Master is growing impatient. Get it done." Shax left the call leaving Aldinach to himself.

"Asshole." Aldinach muttered under his breath as he put the device back into his pocket. He started walking out of the alley and began to think of a plan. "I know the jewel is in that museum. Royal Cosmos Museum. I just need to get it better they moved it again." Aldinach raised his hands in the air and the clouds started to darken. Aldinach wasn't the demon of natural disasters for nothing. "The Legion isn't going to know what hit them."

Sorry this chapter is a little shorter. Promise the next one will be longer with more action. It'll be the climax of the mission. Thank you darlings!
