[Original/Outdated]Honkai Impact: A Merc's Involvement

Chapter 5: Arrival

[TimeSkip: The Next Day]

After spending the remainder of yesterday just staying on the airship and sleeping through the night, it finally had arrived and docked itself at a port as the group of four all began to exit and leave the ship as they were finally back on solid ground completing the mission.

"And we're home!" Shouted an excited Kiana. "So, what should we do know to celebrate!? How about walking around the city!?"

Mei simply chuckled at Kiana's excitement while Bronya sighed.

"Kiana idiotka is trying to get out of returning to St. Freya." Said Bronya.

"I-I promise that we'll all head out to celebrate once school is over. For now let's all report to Major Himeko. Besides don't forget that Principal Theresa also wanted to speak with Alex." Suggested Mei.

"I could just ask for directions and go see her on my own. You three don't need to accompany me." Replied Alex.

"Major Himeko is most likely gonna be in Principal Theresa's so the Bronya also suggests that we all go together." Said Bronya as Alex sighed but accepted.

With that the four walked down the path and after a nice view of the area, they all arrived as Alex caught his first glimpse of St. Freya High

As Kiana and Mei had a relieved expression to finally be back, Bronya noticed Alex looking around for a bit, surveying his surroundings as he especially looked at the school for a bit.

"What does Subject Alex think of St. Freya?" Asked Bronya.

Alex heard and looked at her for a bit before looking ahead and responding with, "None of your concern. Anyways should we be on our way to your principal's office?"

"We are, but, could you give us the chance to shower and change back into our school uniforms? I promise we'll be quick." Said Mei.

"You better not follow and peep on us you hear me!?" Said Kiana as Alex just shrugged her off.

"Sure thing snowflake whatever. I'll wait, though, where exactly?" Alex asked.

"There's numerous branches around here that Subject Alex can find and wait for Kiana idiotka and Mei." Said Bronya.

With that, Kiana and Mei both ran off to hit the showers as after walking around the circular hub for a bit, he found a bench to sit on and sat down.

Bronya would follow and sit next to Alex which confused the young boy.

"Aren't you gonna go with them?" He asked.

"The Bronya doesn't need to. The Bronya's already wearing her school uniform." She said.

"Wait, that means your uniform and battlesuit are the exact same." Said Alex as Bronya nodded.

"Subject Alex is correct. Why? Is that a problem?" Asked Bronya.

Alex simply nodded his head no and opted to just drop the conversation as the two just sat there keeping silent as Alex rested his head back and closed his eyes.

That was until he heard whispers as he opened his eyes and looked around to see numerous valkyrie students that attended there talking amongst one another while looking and sneakily pointing at the bench he was on.

Just from that Alex could easily tell that they were already forming rumors and ideas about what they were seeing and while Alex was annoyed he couldn't blame them.

Most if not all trained Valkyries were indeed female so if anything he was at an all girls school so naturally seeing a boy sitting with a girl here was definitely gonna cause gossip.
