Third-Person POV

Inside Amiya & Co's Respective Rooms.....

"We should've acted better. But we ended up being scolded by Doktah. Dr.Kal'sit, I'm surprised you acted the way you did the most." said Amiya with a disappointed look while brushing her hair

"I know....it's just thought a lot of things have happened to Arata. And it's been hard not to worry about him & on top of Ch'en's rude attitude. I should've acted better.... I hope Arata will forgive me." said Kal'sit with a guilt look while glancing at a photo of her & Arata

Obviously, this got everyone else's attention as Blaze, Projekt Red, & Amiya got closer to examine the photo. Kal'sit at first was hesitant...but allowed the girls to examine the photo. In the photo, it showed a younger Arata & Kal'sit in casual clothing enjoying drinks in a pub somewhere.

"Wow. Arata even wore that helmet even back in his early years? How does he even drink from that?" asked Blaze with a curious look while pointing at Arata

"Now that you mention it..... Has Doktah ever removed that helmet of his, Dr. Kal'sit?" asked Amiya with a curious look

"Red really wants to know too!" asked Projekt Red with an eager look while her tail wags happily

"Actually.... I've never seen him remove that helmet. Not once during our early years have I seen Arata's face. He was also so embarrassed about how he looks so he always hid his face." replied Kal'sit with a look of realization

This obviously shocked everyone else, Amiya especially. Amiya always saw Kal'sit & Arata together & had always assumed they were really close. Of course, it didn't take long for someone to say something stupid.

"So..... you guys never dated? Are you telling me he's single-" asked Blaze with curious look until a murderous aura was felt throughout their room

Blaze turned to realize Kal'sit had the most terrifying look on her face with Monst3r standing right behind her. Amiya & Projekt Red quickly took cover behind their bed as Kal'sit approached Blaze with butter knife in her hand with Blaze shaking her utter fear

"Would you like to rephrase that question of yours.......BLAZE?" asked Kal'sit with a murderous glare with terrifyingly calm smile

"I-i-i-i mean.....w-what do y-you think he looks like under his helmet?" asked Blaze with a look of terror with shaking legs

"That's better." said Kal'sit with a surprisingly calm look with Monst3r disappearing in an instant

Deciding that it was time to turn in for the night, Kal'sit ordered Amiya, Blaze, & Projekt Red to turn for the night so they could wake up in time to leave Lungmen. Amiya & co quickly agreed & headed to sleep.

A Few minutes later......

Amiya had woken up during the night because she couldn't shake the feeling of worry for Arata. So Amiya silently exited her room to check on Arata. Little did Amiya know that Kal'sit heard her leave ...but decided to let her go since she understood her feelings.

"Amiya...." said Kal'sit with a worried look until deciding to go back to sleep

Amiya quietly made it to Arata's room & quietly peeked through his door. What surprised Amiya was that Arata was sitting by the desk near the window looking over other operator submissions & their respective files.

"Let's see here....Franka & Liskarm made a formidable duo in battle. Cuora seems like a capable Defender despite being so young. FE Eater? Curious name for an operator....but we could use more Specialists." mumbled Arata as he continued going down the list
