Till's point of view:

''It's been 7 freaking months and you are still haunting me...'', Till tried to shut the voice in his head.

''Did I really have to die for you to see me?'', Ivan's amused voice exclaimed. ''Then I guess I will have to be more annoying'', he stated in an evil tone.

Till growled and pulled his hair, determined not to open his eyes and see him again, for the promise he gave Mizi to do his best effort and set himself free from this paranoid situation, by accepting his feelings. The thing is that Till was merely confused and unable to comprehend the reason his mind was reacting  so greatly to the man's loss, sending him over and over again, as a way to remind Till's ignorance.

''Till...'', Ivan said softly this time, making the silver haired man's heart sink.

However, Till wasn't as surprised as when he felt a hand stroking his shoulder gently. He couldn't help but open his eyes and turn around, jumping like a spring to see a black gloved hand holding him tightly.

<<NO GET YOUR HANDS->>, he cut his sentence in the middle, realizing that in front of him there was standing a flabbergasted Hyuna. Without gloves.

<<Ohhh Hyuna>>, Till greeted in a raspy voice.

Hyuna's smile returned and she impulsively kissed Till's forehead.

<<I have a new mission for you, boy!>>, she announced in excitement and dragged him by the wrist, leading him to the base, not forgetting to include happy little jumps on the way.

When they reached the base, where all the planning of the invasions occured, Mizi, Isaac and Dewey were already gathered around. Till chuckled when his gaze fell on the paper that Dewey was showing off to his friends which had a silly human that represented Isaac, taking in consideration the line that was crossing its head and the toothpick that was glued at the place where its mouth was suppossed to be. Isaac got up and went straight forward to Dewey threating him.

<<I brought Tiiiilll!>>, Hyuna sung.

Hearing Hyuna, Isaac returned casually to his seat, while Dewey laughed relieved.

<<We are not done yet, friend>>, Isaac growled.

Till took his place near Mizi and asked:<<How are you dealing?>>

Mizi huffed and replied:<<You get used to it eventually.>>, a smile spreading across her face. 




<<Okay, so, as you all know we are running out of food supplies...>>, Hyuna said seriously. <<Aaaaaand that's why we are going to strike... Any guesses?>>, she asked, waiting impatiently for someone to align with her crazy idea.

To Hyuna's dismay, no one spoke up.

<<We are going to strike right in the heart of the planet. ALIEN STAGE!>>, she raised her arms with a determined smile, expecting some kind of applause.

To Hyuna's dismay, no one applauded.

<<Is that really necessary? I mean, it is not worth the risk. We could easily rob the local market.>>, Mizi expressed her opinion.

<<Yeah, it is too dangerous Hyuna.>>, Isaac agreed with crossed hands over his chest.

Hyuna sighed, disappointed that she had to explain:<< Guys, I do not think you understand the urgency of the matter. Our team of survivors is growing and our supplies are running out in an extremely fast rate. In what universe do you believe that this time they will not wait for us to rob their pathetic bazzars? Even if we travel for 5 hours to strike an unknown area, they would still be alerted. Hehe, that's the damage we've caused.>>, she bragged. <<But where do those shitty aliens believe we would never set foot on except if it is for a rescue? Where do they think we would avoid going at any cost, except for rescuing a loved one?>>

<<The Alien Stage.>>, Till breathed.

<<Exactly! They are so sure of themselves when it comes to Alien Stage, especially now that our last mission was half baked. But we've learnt and adapted. We have studied their defensice systems and I am confident that we can surpass them! Right Isaac?>>

<<Right...>>, Isaac responded slowly, through gritted teeth.

<<Great! Who's in?>>, Hyuna voiced excitedly.

<<Pfft fuck it. Let's do it!>>, Dewey said.

<<Ugh, fine, if Dew's in, I am.>>, Isaac mumbled rolling his eyes.

<<What about you guys?>>, the woman asked, piercing Mizi and Till with her grey gaze.

<<Okay, I guess you know better. But if you end up getting shot for me again, I will kill you myself.>>, Mizi exclaimed, making Hyuna laugh.

<<Well, I guess Till could stay to deal with his trauma...>>, Hyuna challenged her fate.

Till hit his fist on the table intrigued and said in his hoarse tone:<<Well first of all, fuck off Hyuna. Secondly, I will go along just to save your pitiful asses.>>

<<YEESS, LET'S DO IT!>>, Hyuna was the only one jumping around, like the part in her brain that sensed fear was shut off.

Among the crazy woman's cheers, Till saw Ivan standing around the corner, grinning seductively. 

Till sensed that something about this mission was off... He wished his mind was playing tricks, with Ivan's picture to weaken him, but something about the raven-black haired man's grin told Till that there would be surprises. Bad, good? Both? 





He wouldn't know...
