Days after preparation Akechi and Sugar packed there things and left the world behind them to pursue something greater that weighs more than the cash the two are being paid 

Akechi and Sugar were seat in the back of a cargo plane quietly doing something to occupy their minds. Akechi was scrolling through weapon blueprints carefully noting each upside and downside before stopping and taking off his glasses to rub the bridge of his nose 

He looked up from his screen for a small break "You really have got to stop looking at those blueprints it's going to give you grey hair just like your teacher." Sugar didn't remove her eyes from her shotgun still cleaning every part piece by piece

"Sugar she has white hair not grey hair." Akechi corrected as Sugar rolled her eyes "Well then she has a gray personality" Sugar causing Akechi to chuckle "Well your right about that" Akechi said as Sugar placed her Shotgun back in the case "Did call her about your new job?" Sugar asked Akechi "She most likely couldn't care less. Sure she has my best interests but sometimes it's best if I do my own thing like always" Akechi answered causing Sugar to frown

"As your partner all I can recommend you to do is try connecting with her once in a while" Sugar suggested leaning back in her seat as silence took over once again 


3 hours later


The cargo plane had landed at a Antarctic "research" base owned by the same organization the two will be working for "Once you exit another pilot will take you to Chaldea by helicopter" The cargo pilot said exiting the cockpit and walking towards the back and pressing a button causing a ramp to lower "Thanks for the smooth trip Pilot" Akechi said as the pilot shook his head "It's my job don't need a thanks for doing it well" The pilot said "Well for what it's worth a thanks goes a long way" Sugar said grabbing her things "I guess your right." The pilot said as the two walked down the ramp as Akechi looked around before his eyes landed on a person standing by the helicopter and began approaching

"You two must be the new staff Marisbury hired?" The man asked "That would be us" Akechi answered "Alright then get on and we'll be there shortly" The pilot said hopping onto the pilot seat as Akechi slid the door open allowing Sugar to enter first before following her in "What's the approximate time it takes to get to this Chaldea place?" Sugar asked the pilot "Well it should be 20 minutes or less so sit back and enjoy the scenery hell we might see a colony of penguins on our way there" The pilot said jokingly as he flipped a few switches and buttons 

Akechi sat down next to Sugar "Are you cold?" Akechi asked Sugar "Kind of but it's kind of expected from weather in the negatives even with insulated clothing why?" Sugar wondered as Akechi scoot closely "Oh is this your attempt at making moves?" Sugar asked bluntly "I guess... did it work?" Akechi asked as Sugar giggled "God your so stupid" Sugar smiled before pulling him close "Your shivering" Sugar said as Akechi blushed lightly which he hid with his scarf "Your tolerance to any type of cold weather is pretty low for someone in our line of work" Sugar said mockingly "It's not like I expected to work in the Antarctic" Akechi said 

"Well that makes two of us"

A few days ago

Time: 1500 Chaldea, Antarctica


"So we have two new staff members joining us today what do you think they're like?" A blonde man asked "Huh? Are you talking to me?" A grey haired grump said "Of course." He answered while staring out of the hallway windows "I swear all I've been hearing this entire week is about those two people Marisbury hired" The grey haired teen said rubbing his head "Really? I haven't heard" The blonde said surprised "Man your really hopeless when it comes to reading the room, if you want to hear about the rumors ask the staff around here they won't shut up about it" The grey haired teen said before walking away

"Hm...maybe I'll do just that" The Blonde said to himself before walking away from the window to do some info digging himself despite knowing he could just ask Marisbury but it would take away both the fun and surprise so he dropped the thought of it immediately and so began asking around

"Oh Mr. Wodime! Hm the new staff members? Don't tell anyone I said this but  I heard one is a killer... no not like a regular killer like hundreds dead type of killer it gives me the shivers thinking about it, oh right there's a second one but I don't know about the rumors so it's best if you ask someone else sir" The Mechanic said before walking away

"Hm..." The blonde man grinned at his first piece of info and moved along to ask more staff about the rumors

The second person he asked was a control room worker that was consuming probably unhealthy amount of coffee signified by the two cups in his hands that were meant for himself "New hires? I heard there's a smoking lady out of those two but I heard she killed a large magus organization herself... what? There's a lot of weird stuff in this world I wouldn't be surprised if it's true but rumors are rumors now excuse me I need another cup of coffee" The coffee addict said

The blonde pieced together one is a male and the other is a female and hypothesized they may be partners "Interesting..." Wodime said to himself as he walked by a brown haired girl and a pink haired girl conversing with each other as they stopped to look at Wodime as he passed by deep in thought 

The third rumor sounded ridiculous but it's not something he could possibly rule out

"I heard one of them hunted a clocktower lord and killed them with zero effort... that reminds me they could be watching at any point in time even now!" Before Wodime could calm the panicked staff member booked it down the hall

every rumor from there sounded less believable 

"I think one of them is the infamous Black Silence. Scary... that means one of those two probably killed thousands of magus' in a year" A librarian said shivering

"I heard one of them was trained by the Crimson Weave! Like anyone would believe that" A magus said

"I heard from one of the tech nerds that a guy made a Railgun... Seriously who the hell could make that" A engineer said

"I think one the two enjoys pot full of sugar in there coffee... who the hell doesn't die from that" One of the medical staff wondered

"The thing is about one of them is he's a real killer not someone who just ends a regular human beings life but one those Servant killers... hard to believe because it's a dead project. Wait don't tell me your after that kind of trouble feel bad for those poor sap" A hardened security staff said in a gruff tone


The blonde man asked all day listening to every absurd or normal sounding rumor and came to conclusion when he sat on his bed  "All these rumors... are getting way out of hand" Wodime concluded ending his investigation and causing his feeling of curiosity to grow
