Chapter 12 – Chelsea
"Hey you two, how have you been?" They auburn haired friend says as she embarrasses the two of them.
"Chelsea! How did you get here? Where are the others? Are they okay? Are you okay?" Tatsumi says as he is still enlighten by sight of an old friend. Mine tries to look around to see if anyone is close by as she closes the door.
"Slow down, one at a time. Everyone is fine, they are surviving like you are. Najenda and Susanoo are hiding in a build inside the city. Akame and Lubbock are outside the wall were those monsters are and killing then with ease. Leone is around the land gathering information and supplies. As for me, I have been better. Still not comfortable to this new world. I would have meet you guy sooner but I found out more about this world that threatens our safety." Chelsea says as she gets up and looks out the window to see if anyone is watching her.
"What do you mean?" Mine inquiries.
"Apparently, there is an underground organization trying to start a war." Says Chelsea.
"You mean a revolutionary army." Tatsumi comments.
"No, I mean a terrorist group that wants to kill people for their personal gain. They are not fighting corruption, they are using it as an excuse to get what they want. The worst part is that the Jaegers join this group." As soon as she said this, the two go into shock that they now realize there enemy is in this world.
Chelsea continues, "I found out about this after witnessing three of the Jaegers killed a couple of teens. I then followed them to their base. A woman in a dark red dress and a man with a red hair and a white mask seem to have been the leaders. He is the leader of a group called the White Fang that wants to be kill others so that his species can be the only one that stands. The women said she wanted to destroy this kingdom and gain some mystical power, I had to get out before they could find me."
"Why would the Jaegers want to help them out?" Tatsumi asks.
"I do not know for sure, but I think that this group is going to help them try and kill us, Night Raid. They have a plan to attack this school tomorrow, midday. Both of you get ready to go, because were leaving this area and finding a new place to live."
"What about the people here at this school?" Mine says in a judging tone.
"Not our problem, we have to focus on saving ourselves and finding a way home." Chelsea says as she gets ready to walk out the door. She turns back to see her friend are standing still. She looks back, "What is wrong?"
"We are not leaving, we should stay here and fight." Tatsumi looks into Chelsea's eyes with determination as he says this. Mine gives the same look to agree with Tatsumi. Chelsea gestures why they would act such a way. Tatsumi explains, "The people here are students, learning how to fight creature to save their kingdom. I not going to leave them behind to die by the enemies from our world."
"You two are insane! You know how strong the Jaegers are and I do not think these other enemies are a pushover. Why do you want to fight them and most likely die in the process for some people you have known for only a day?" Chelsea tries to find reason in what he was saying. Mine walks over to Chelsea with a serious face.
"You said you saw Esdeath kill a couple of teens. Was one of them were in white and had long white ponytail?" Chelsea nods, wondering how she knew what one of them looked like, "That was Weiss, I was just trying to cheer up her friend after we found out she died. I am not going to let anything happen to her or anyone she cares about again." Mine says not moving an inch on the topic.
"Are you serious?" Chelsea says trying to gain control of the situation.
Tatsumi interjects angrily, "When you saw those teens die. Why did not you help them?" Chelsea offended at this remark, looks at Tatsumi. "What could I have done, my job is to watch, follow, and report. I do not fight monsters like that. That is your jobs on this team."
"And that is what we are going to do then." Tatsumi say unflinching on the issue with Mine. Chelsea sees that neither one will change their mind as realizes what she has to do. "Why did I have to join this team of stubborn fouls? If you two are serious about it, I will call Najenda and see how we can help out. Knowing her, she will most likely be on your side on the issue."
She says as she pulls out a scroll and two others and gives them to Mine and Tatsumi. "Here, these are a type of technology in this world that allows for long range communication. I stole them from a few students around here. Pretty helpful actually, tap the name of the person you want to talk to. They Auburn haired friend walks toward the door, "I will see you later. Sleep well, this may be your last time to do so." Chelsea says as she walks out the room. Mine and Tatsumi look at each other and realize the commitment they just made and the reality of what may happen tomorrow.
