"Twenty-one," someone said in the dark and eerie room, breaking the deep silence. A woman clad in a black cloak right found in the corner by the window raised her head, a dark shadow over her eyes.

She drummed her fingers against the glass table in front of her and turned her head slightly to look at the window.Realizing that she was waiting for a better reply, the young lady who had spoken earlier swallowed deeply, "T-Twenty-one people were killed yesterday." The room was once again silent as the woman clad in a cloak stayed silent.

"Were there any survivors?" she said lowly. The young lady barely heard it though she knew what the woman asked."T-There were no survivors Miss Lucia," the young lady said, her fear slowly disappearing as the woman named Lucia nodded almost proudly.

"Good. Where are Zen and the others?" Lucia asked, muttering a low curse as the headlights of a car shined her eyes, showing her face for just a few seconds."Shall I call them, Miss?" the lady asked, already preparing to leave as she started strapping the belt of her boots around her legs.

"Call Zen."

"Only him?" The lady asked, grabbing her bag and slowly standing up.

"Yes, only him. I have to prepare for a fight tonight with the Bloody Rose gang," Lucia whispered softly, grabbing hold of the dagger that was on the table in front of her.The young lady nodded,

"I'll call him right away." And with that, she closed the door.Lucia gently slid her index finger down the blade as she allowed it to shine in the light through the window. The blade glinted for a brief moment and she stared at her reflection, "Pathetic."

And she threw the blade.Jellal looked through the window of his room and blinked repeatedly for a few seconds before turning around and sitting on his bed. A frown crept up to his face and he stared up at the dark ceiling, a blank look on his face."Fear me."Somehow, his encounter with Lucy yesterday made him think back on the time they had seen her in a café.

He was starting to put the pieces together – from how she warned them up to the point where they (or she) was attacked.Jellal released a long and hoarse sigh as he ran a hand through his blue hair, holding his hand over his head as he stared at the reflection of the moon on his white marble floor.

Grimacing slightly, he stood up and walked over to the door. He opened it and looked down, raising a brow at the little girl in front of him."Why are you here Reina?" Jellal asked the smaller bluenette.

They almost looked identical, except for Reina's bluish-yellow colored eyes, unlike Jellal who had brown eyes. Reina Fernandez was a seven year old girl who had mysterious eyes which was told to be good luck – this was because blue and yellow were always mixed and turned green, but in her eyes, they were mixed (slightly), but not green.

Like her older brother, she too had a tattoo under her right eye. Her long cerulean hair reached just before her knees, with bangs almost like Jellal's."I can't sleep," Reina said, staring at the older bluenette blankly. Her name, Reina, came from the word "Rain". It was an odd one, but she liked it.

She liked the rain sometimes. She liked the cold. People often told Jellal that Reina was like the rain sometimes; cold."Why?" Jellal asked, raising a brow. He leaned against the doorframe, still not letting his sister pass.Reina slowly looked down,

"I had a nightmare about mom and dad dying."

Jellal stared at her sadly and sighed in guilt as he stepped aside, allowing the female bluenette to enter.Reina looked around; it had been quite some time since she had entered his room. Usually Jellal would be the one entering hers, but now it was her turn again.
