-Black Bulls Base-

It had been late at night as Sekke went to get the backup Noelle and Carver had requested. Though the closest squad had been the Black Bulls base itself. He flew there in a hurry the moment the call had ended.

And before he knew it--He had found himself in front of the Black Bulls Magic Knight base.

"Bah...ha!" Sekke said as he flew down before he hopped off his broom, "Jeez... The Black Bulls are supposed to be the closest to Nean. So why aren't they responding?" He soon looked to the building, noticing how---Crappy the structure looked.

"But--" he soon thought, "--The Black Bulls are a group of misfits, aren't they?" He soon had a mental image of how they looked as the very thought of them made him shiver.

"Bah-ha..." He said dejectedly before he went to the door. Oddly enough, he found it open. He took that as an invitation to step inside.

"G-Good evening, I'm here to ask for--BAH-HA?!"

Sekke immediately covered his mouth as he noticed a velociraptor had been fast asleep just at the front of the door. Oddly enough he had been holding a pouch in his claws, and a black panther slept on his back. It looked to be a young cub.

Sekke kept quiet as he stepped over the velociraptor's tail, and tip-toed away. "Gonna pretend I didn't see that--Bah-ha." He mumbled to himself.

As he stepped into the common room, he noticed several bottles on the floor and not to mention there had been a strange aroma in the air.

"Bah...Ha?"

He looked around looking for any signs of anyone, but he had no such luck.

He soon came to an immediate conclusion, "Right. I should go. I-I'm not scared or anything, but--What else can I do if there's no one here? Actually, it looks like I scared off the Black Bulls, bah-ha!" He soon had an immediate thought of what he should do next, "Instead I guess I'll just go ask at the garden of beautiful women, the Blue Rose Knights."

He soon turned to the door, "So why am I wasting any more time... Here?"

Sekke immediately shrieked when he came face to face with Gordon. He quickly backed up from him as Gordon just stood there unphased by his reaction.

"The moon's beautiful, isn't it?" He asked with a mumble. Though Sekke couldn't hear, since he was still panicking.

"I'm Gordon---" He mumbled quietly, "--But you can call me Don."

Sekke still couldn't hear him as he was still shaking and backed up from him.

"WA-WAIT!" He exclaimed, "STOP I'M NO ONE SUSPICIOUS!"

"You're Sekke Bronzazza from the Green Praying Mantises, right?" Gordon asked as he was still mumbling, "Let's be friends. I haven't seen you since the Magic Knights' Entrance Exam..."

"Y-Yikes..." He thought as Gordon smiled towards him, "...HE LOOKS LIKE HE WANTS TO KILL ME!"

Sekke had no hesitation as he got up and ran for the hills. He gave a sigh though---

BOOM!

He soon felt a stream of electricity around his body as he tingled.

"W-what was--" Sekkee asked before his nose began to twitch at a certain aroma. He soon turned to a certain couple giggling, one with fair caramel complexion the other dark skinned though they had been bare as Sekee not only became redder than a tomato, he began to stammer and scream before having a nosebleed.
