Third person

After exchanging some words over tea, Yve eventually bid William farewell and left the Golden Dawn Base. She overlooked the entire Clover Kingdom as she hovered on a broom that William had lent her, she focuses on pinpointing Yami's mana signature in order to locate the Black Bulls headquarters.

After a while of traveling over the countryside, she came upon a heavily wooded area where a old building sat right in the middle. Swooping down, she landed on the ground to get a better look.

It appeared as if it had been taken apart and reassembled, and had dark moss growing on the sides of it. It wasn't nearly as well kept as William's base, to be quite fair it looked like a random abandoned building Yami just happened to find and claim as his.

She snorted. 'Leave it to Yami to find a dump like this to live in...'

The door suddenly opened. Speak of the devil. "So you just gonna stand around out here, or are you gonna come inside?" Yami asked with a bored expression, a cigarette lazily dangling from his lips.

"This place looks like a damn dungeon, I'm afraid to see what's inside."

Yami chuckled darkly, "Oh you should be afraid, very afraid princess. Now hurry up and get in here." He said, moving aside to allow her to come in.

She complied, just as she stepped through the doorway, she saw sparks of lightning and fire flying as two mages were in the midst of an intense battle. Suddenly, a blue ball of lightning came hurdling towards her. Acting fast, she grabbed ahold of the boy's wrist, causing it to fizzle out.

Yami sighed, "Cut it out, what'd I tell you guys about that? You wanna fight, take that shit outside."

"Sorry Mr. Yami." The blonde apologized before looking towards Yve, who released his hand. "Who's she? She seems strong, I wanna fight her!" He exclaimed excitedly.

"This is Yve—yve meet Luck, and that one over there is Magna." Yami pointed to the boy with two-toned hair wearing a dark pair of shades. Gray eyes met jade ones and the teen could feel heat rising to his cheeks, but he quickly put on his tough-guy persona, "Nice to meet ya, Lady Yve!"

"I'm Vanessa! Its nice to have another lady around~" the pink-haired woman on the sofa hiccuped drunkenly. In the corner, there was a fully stocked bar with several stools, and a large dinner table where a small black haired girl fed Asta with all sorts of foods. "That's Charmy." Yami pointed out.

"Try some of my food!" The girl insisted, suddenly appearing in front of her while holding out a kebab. Yve graciously accepted it, taking a bite of the food—an array of flavors exploding in her mouth, her eyes widened the slightest bit in surprise. "Why, it's delicious! Thank you, Charmy!~" she cooed, resting a hand on her cheek admiringly.

"The guy over there staring at a picture of his sister is called Gauche." He pointed a thumb at said man who had a nosebleed, "My goddess Marie...." He muttered repeatedly, unaware to the fact there was a new presence in the base.

"That masked guy right there is Zora." The red haired man didn't say a word and merely scowled as he looked Yve up and down. Well, he seems like he hates everyone.

"And last but not least, the one hiding is Grey." The blue haired girl trembled as she peeked out from her hiding place, but quickly hid again after making eye contact with Yve.

"I'm not surprised that you've managed to recruit some of the most interesting people I've ever seen." The woman hummed, causing Yami to look at her sideways, "Coming from you, that sounds pretty backhanded."

Yve smirked raised her hands defensively, "Don't make it out to be more than what it is, I mean it in a good way—well, for the most part."

Her statement itself attested to the fact that he knew her far too well, Yami chuckled, "Want a drink?" he offered, nodding towards the fully stocked bar in the corner.
