Wriothesley's

After I read Marie's letter, we quickly run where she is... It is just easy to decrypt where she brought Neuvillette and Sigewinne. It is obviously at our previous house.

"Are we really gonna go there without proper plan?" I heard Clorinde asked,

Plan? I don't need a plan, it's Marie we're talking about. She's insane, even though I've known her for quite some time, I still can't predict the ideas encircling in her mind.

There are hundreds of what ifs are running in my mind right now. What if I come too late? What if I'll never see Neuvillette and Sigewinne again?

I can't take that. I might as well die than live in this world without them in my life.

Oh God! Please keep them safe, please...

"We don't need plan," I answered her.

I heard her sigh, "I know how much you want to save them now, but we should have a proper plan first before we attack." She said.

"I can't just stay still knowing that they are in danger." I said brushing my hair in frustration, "I need to take them back as soon as possible!"

"I know Wriothesley, and I swear we will bring them back," she said as I felt her pat my shoulder, "Let's go to Poisson and meet Navia there, let's discuss the plan I have in mind."

Third Person's

at Poisson...

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAID?! NEUVY AND WINNIE GOT ABDUCTED BY YOUR STUPID WIFE?!" Navia exclaimed as she started to face back and forth, "Oh archons! This is bad! This is really really bad! We need to get them, before it's too late! I'll gonna call Melus and Silver and maybe bring some Grades too-"

"Can you calm down for just a second?" Clorinde said while massaging her temple. She's clearly annoyed, but she's trying her best to hide it.

"HOW ON EARTH CAN I CALM DOWN, MY BEST FRIEND AND MY LOVELY NIECE'S LIVES ARE ON THE LINE! WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING!" Navia answered.

"That's why I drag Wriothesley here with me to discuss my plan!" Clorinde said,

"...You have a plan?! Why didn't you tell me earlier?!" Navia exclaimed, pouting her lips.

Clorinde facepalmed, totally done with Navia, and still trying her best to control herself, "I was about to tell you but you suddenly overreacted," she said.

"You should've stop me!"

"Can you two shut up? Let's just discuss your plan Clorinde." Wriothesley cuts them.

A little bit of silence envelops them, until Clorinde speak up, "So, about the plan I had in mind-" she was about to point a gun to the one who cuts her off again, but she stop when she saw who it was.

"Am I too late on your supposed plan?!"

"L-lady Furina?"
