~No One's POV~

When did it start to rain? The cityscape is reflected in the puddle, swaying cheerfully with the ripples. The fashionable city, the optimistic people - looks as if the prosperity would last through all eras and never die. You walked through the streets calmly trying to find where the pirate is and what is she doing; over to your right there is a Newsboy selling Newspaper, shouting -

[Newsboy] - EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

[Newsboy] - *Opens a Newspaper* The hero pickles story will be brought to the big screen! Victory blessed England!

[Sonetto] - The hero Pickles ... This is ...

[Rockin' Girl] - Hey, coming through! Tommy, she's not here again today? I'll take this motorbike if she doesn't show up!

[Newsboy] - Shh! Don't be such a bugger! Did you listen to the radio this morning? Her ship has been sunk!

[Vertin] - Are you talking about Regulus of the APPLe?

You didn't mind them a talking since you were busy looking around the city - it's fashion, minds, and people alike are all with such . . . 'Color'. Never have you seen such liveliness in a city before. Well with the exception of New York and Las Vegas that is. Those cities never sleep in these eras even if there's crime, violence and all other things.

[Newsboy] - Who are you?

[Vertin] - I'm her ... friend. She left something here.

[Newsboy] - Huh! These are ... !

Looking at the records Vertin carried with her, the newsboy lowered his guard as he looked around and spoke once more.

[Newsboy] - Be quiet. Don't get caught! Take your chances around that café!

[Vertin] - Thank you very much for your assistance ... Y/n? Sonetto did you-

[Sonetto] - He- well ... She roamed around a bit; seems like they want to know more of the city Ms. Timekeeper.

[Newsboy] - Are you trying to find your other friend? Well as Miss orange hair said she took a sharp turn around and went ... that way! *He pointed towards the café*

[Vertin] - Thank you very much once again.

[Newsboy] - ... You are very serious. If you really want to thank me, just take a copy of the Times?

Vertin did took one as she gave it a look and nodded at Sonetto. Sonetto asked Vertin for the paper as Vertin gave it and Sonetto looked into it. Clearly focus on the paper more than the surroundings.

[Newsboy] - See, it's all good news on the first two pages. Only comes along every once in a thousand years, eh?

[Sonetto] - ... I- I'll take another copy please.

[Newsboy] - Here ya go miss! See you some time again!

Sonetto puts away the newspaper carefully and runs towards the cafe while forcing herself to calm down. Inside the cafe was, well, what you expect a cafe to look around the 60's - well cleaned, well mannered staff, and much more of those round tables with two chairs fit for couples alike. Y/n was seen at a table by the window calmly sipping a cup of coffee well blended as she writes something down on a booklet of some sorts.

[Vertin] - Do you like the world outside, Sonetto?

[Sonetto] - ... !

[Sonetto] - No ... I am just ...

[Sonetto] - I am just curious. I will throw it away when I finish it. Please don't take it to heart.


*Meanwhile ... at the window table*


[You] - ... Hmph. *Smirks* Found you, you bratty pirate ...

[???] - *chewing sound*

[You] - *Just beside her* Huh ... strange that there is FLOATING bread just at this seat. I wonder if I can sit down on it ... ?

[Sonetto] - Hmm? That voice ...

[Sonetto] - Timekeeper, look at that table where Y/n is standing beside at!

A piece of bread is floating in the air above a table of the cafe's, disappearing little by little. And not to mention the floating Apple with a bowtie besides it adding to the suspicion of both the Timekeepers' and Sonetto.

[Regulus] - Hum hum! Yummy! Hmmm, so yummy!

[Regulus] - One more Earl Grey with brown sugar please! 🎵

[Sonetto] - Oh! The optical arcane skill to be invisible ... Now I understand.

Sonetto takes out her pen quickly and points it at the cup held by "the invisible one." Then she chanted a spell and the bright magic almost like a laser was fired at the "Invisible one." like it's a bullet as the cup spilled it's content revealing a one's pirate attire.

[Regulus] - Whoa ... ! Wh- what?!

[Regulus] - Who spilled my tea!

[You] - *Looks down on her* Regulus, cooperate and we will not use any force against you.

[Sonetto] - Please answer us the question Regulus.

[Regulus] - ...

[Regulus] - Your foundation is just an authority working with governments.

[Regulus] - If I register in, my location will be exposed anywhere, anytime ...

[Regulus] - I am not doing it!

Sonetto sighs and looks at the sky. It seems to be her sort of habit before a battle erupts by the resisting ones. Y/n on the other hand was just reloading her Revolver as she also look at the cafe - sad that she won't linger here anymore and also the fact she made friends with a few stray cats along the way.

[Sonetto] - ... May the peace be with us.

[You] - Ich vertraue auf Gott ...
