The sound of her heels clicking on the metal, manufactured floors of the ship as she prepared to proceed with her urgent task.
"Obey." Her words strung onto the guard's mind, his body alive but controlled by the woman like a marionette attached to its strings.
Several other guards followed her, exactly the same as the previous ones they were wrapped around her finger.
Moving along, she placed them in certain positions, in front of gates, near the elevators, perfect for ambushing the group coming here, just as Destiny foretold.
Now she had one more action she had to take to push forward the script.
Before she could hologram herself to the train, she heard distinct noises coming from afar.
It was footsteps.
They weren't from a guard she controlled but an unknown variable.
She was sure that no one from the Xianzhou could have followed her. The place was full of guards, yes but she already took control of the forces that were chasing after her.
So who could it be?
It didn't matter who they were. They're already gonna be under her control. No one could resist her words.
She climbed up a cargo container with the assistance of her strings.
Once upon atop, she looked afar at the culprit.
With one look, she can tell that it was a traveler who was lucky enough to make it onto the ship before the Stellaron was sneaked in. Framing her and her co-workers to be the ones causing the problems.
She gracefully jumped over to them, hopping from the containers one by one. The wind blew as she did so.
Landing, she expected a reaction from him but it wouldn't seem so. Having a closer look aside from his elegant fashion choice and blondish white hair the most notable thing was the white coffin placed beside him.
"How unfortunate, the first person I meet here is a criminal." He sighed. "It's a pleasure to meet you. Stellaron Hunter, Kafka."
"So you do know of me! Perfect. That makes things much more smoother." She spoke in an amused tone.
The Devil Hunter lifted her hand up as an array of strings suddenly surrounded him.
"Don't move."
In response, the man summoned a white Rapier in his hand. He slashed once, in a horizontal straight line. As a result, the red strings were all sundered into pieces.
"Nice swordplay. I rather use guns they're more convenient."
She quickly aimed her Uzui at him, attempting to fire an onslaught of bullets.
But to much of her surprise, he disappeared out of thin air and reappeared right beside her.
"Stop." She commanded but alas, the Whispers of a Spirit couldn't affect someone far beyond her League.
The first step he took something happened, and everything darkened.

A large shadowy maw appeared from the sky, its appearance was so repulsive she couldn't move. Its deformed wings resemble the bones of a blacked corpse of a dragon, its body filled with buzzing insects, worming around and festering in its body.
She couldn't even lift a finger in front of this abomination called an insect. It engulfed her in its stomach, and what she saw inside was an unending abyss.
It's inside hypnotically spinning circularly going deeper and deeper until it never ends.
'WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS, WHAT IS THIS.'
Kafka's mind tried to comprehend this foreign sensation she felt throughout all her body.
She fell on her knees, her complexion paled, tears of sweat started to drip from her face, blood frozen cold.
"What's this? A mere Stellaron Hunter was afraid of insects."
He was still there, inside this never-ending bottomless pit. He slowly walked toward her.
She tried to back away but soon realized she couldn't move. Her mind must have recovered though her body was still shaking.
"W..h." She couldn't let out even a single word.
The two were no longer inside of that revolting insect but instead the ship's interior with those familiar cargo containers surrounding the two.
He kneeled down, looking at her with a neutral expression.
She looked at his brightly emerald eyes, a shiver went down her spine upon looking further.
She figured it out. The way her body reacted and the things she's been constantly told. It was the one emotion she never felt until now.
Fear.
She was taken out of her thoughts when a warm touchy feeling suddenly settled on her heart and slowly gently coursed through her body.
Her chest started to warm up and her heart pump furiously.
Was this also fear?
Then he spoke with a fake smile.
"I'll let you play Elio's script but remember this Kafka, even if your Trailblazer reaches the end and kills that Aeon, they'll know in the end it was all a Midsummer Night's Dream."
Even if that false expression on his face was a facade, it along with his gentle tone felt pleasant to hear.
"Before I depart. I have one more thing to do."
-.-
*Ping*
"Who is it now?"
A young silver-haired girl was currently sitting on a couch passing a time with a round of Gacha Hell when abruptly an unknown caller texted the Hacker a picture.
She opened the message.
Disbelief ran through her face.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA." Seeing it she laughed her heart out
Sliver Wolf never thought she would cackle this hard.
A picture of Kafka tied up, hands behind her back and blushing while a blonde man was taking the selfie.
With the caption. "Fear Correction Needed. 😭💢💢💢💢💢💢💢."
The Hacker was saving this and never gonna let this go.
The arrogant, smug Kafka, the one who didn't care about thoughts who thought of her, the fearless Stellaron Hunter, the one who led the charge of a rebellion to overthrow the government of a planet now was a blushing maiden.
She didn't even question how they got her number but kept on laughing to her heart's content.
-.-
A/N: When I saw the Kafka trailer, I thought she needed some correction, and also Oberon.
