"Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that...this might lead to the 4th Honkai Eruption. And with this new threat, a Herrscher is coming along with it."
Silent, attentive voices turned into murmurs, then one voice spoke up, it was Karina. "So...does this mean that we're going to go back to Soukai City?" Her voice held no joy or excitement, fear was splattered in the pages of her tone. Of course, Soukai City was Karina's home, but having to go there because of an emergency terrified her. Einstein nodded concernedly, "Yes, it looks like it."
Theresa suddenly spoke, "Alright then. We have no choice but to comply and go back there," she held her breath, looking to the side as she uncomfortably added, "or else..who knows what World Serpent will do with this information."
Everyone agreed with her, and soon, it was time to immediately prepare and plan for the mission.
What Einstein and Tesla also addressed is that the severe Honkai energy has slowly been creating explosive rocks that surround the whole area. So, the people at Salt Lake base had exactly 18 hours to get ready and pilot the Hyperion, as well as have it land in Soukai City.
No one was calm, and no one was stressed either, it was a 50/50 tension. For Eleanor, however, her mind was racing and her heart was beating out of her chest. Her family was right near where the Honkai energy took place. She got all her stuff, packed it up, then grabbed her phone, dialing her sisters' number. The painful, eerie ringing sound of the phone blared through her ear as she impatiently tapped her foot on the ground. Waiting, begging, that her sister would pick up.
Meanwhile, Kiana and Karina were in their room, talking about what the next step might be.
"For anything we could've gone to Soukai for, why this?" Kiana muttered under her breath, catching Karina's ears as she finished packing. Karina empathized with her sister, agreeing on how she didn't want to go home this way. Kiana nodded and listened as she zipped up the luggage, throwing on her jacket as she stepped in front of the entrance door, Karina catching up to her. "If anything happens," Karina spoke hesitantly, the hollow sound of shoes clacking on the smooth floor echoing through the corridor, "and you're not able to fight anymore, I'll cover for you. Besides, I've learned a lot from Fu Hua and Ms. Doyle. So I'll be fine."
