Ashes on the Fire
Prologue - Wrest, Crippled, Mental Torture

"ET HQ, this is LOS-1, do you copy?" A blonde girl floating in the middle of an ocean said as she held her ear but no response came

And then, she immediately resummoned the black contraption that have what seems to be barrels before she pointed this to her left side

And on the receiving end of this point was a brown haired woman who has a similar designed uniform to the small blond girl and unlike the small blond girl who has a spear, this woman has what seems to be a large black hand cannon

"LOS-1, unfortunately comms are down." The brown haired woman said in a series town but the small blond girl kept her guns pointed at the brown haired woman

"Elizabeth... You know I'm not an illusion, let's go, we can't wai-" The brown haired woman tried to convince the blond girl only to be met with a laser shot which the brown haired woman promptly avoided

"Hm, it seems I was mistaken." The brown haired said in a totally different voice before her whole body turned 'digital' to reveal a different person on the spot of the brown haired woman

Instead, the person who stands has white hair and yellow eyes, a trademark characteristic of the Lefkians

"Your whole existence is a mistake already."

"Oh hush, we're not the ones struggling to-" But just as the white haired woman was replying to Elizabeth, Elizabeth fired yet another barrage of lasers on the white haired woman causing her to stop talking

"Wow, hate us much?" The white haired woman asked to Elizabeth despite knowing what her answer would be

But instead of actually answering it verbally, Elizabeth just replied with a another barrage of red lasers

And then, jet engines were heard in the distance before the white haired woman said "Ah, that's my cue to leave."

"And who said we'll let you?" Elizabeth said to the white haired woman as she dashes forward to her at breakneck speeds

But instead of abruptly stopping just like last time, she continued her charge and expertly dodging the incoming green lasers aimed at her

But it all ended in naught as the white haired woman dodged Elizabeth's spear charge with almost no effort before she said "Is this what the best of the Last Order Navy has to offer? Then I've got to say, I'm disappointed."

And then a green portal opened near the white haired woman, but instead of walking inside of it, she first turned around to look at Elizabeth who was still recovering "We'll mee-"

Yellow liquid suddenly splashes into the ocean

The white haired woman's eyes widened and her mouth was agape as she felt immense pain course through her, especially on the stomach area

The green portal behind her, her exit suddenly closed leaving her there as she kneels down and looks at her stomach, it was torn open as if something sharp passed through it

But that's the thing, Elizabeth just recovered a few meters away from her and no one (or really anything) else is nearby to cause this kind of damage to her

"An arrogant Lefkian you are." Elizabeth said to the white haired woman

"Y-You..." The white haired woman stuttered as she glared at Elizabeth
