The Vice Captain of the Crimson Lions

Aphi

Mynx hugged Mereoleona, Fuegoleon, and Leopold as they stepped outside the portal that Finral kindly opened for the four to go through with some of Mynx's most prized possessions.

"Feel free to visit whenever you want to. I know it's not what we planned. But hey, I'm free if you ever need to talk,"

Leopold frowned as he wiped his eyes,

"But it's not fair,"

Mynx smiled and ruffled his hair,

"I will be okay. Don't worry about me Leo."

Leopold looked down and hugged her,

"I'll miss you,"

Mynx smiled and patted his back,

"I'll miss you too, lil lion,"

Fuegoleon pulled her into a big hug and sighed,

"Randal will call when he has any questions. He's been praying for years to have you back just because no one does the job better than you,"

Mynx laughed and hugged him tighter,

"I know. I kinda destroyed the expectations huh? But you gotta take care of yourself, flame boy."

"I will. But only if you take care of yourself, moon girl,"

Mynx smirked and tapped her right wrist where the sun tattoo was,

"I swear,"

Fuegoleon smiled and tapped his right wrist where his moon tattoo was,

"I swear,"

Mereoleona yanked Mynx into a hug and grumbled,

"Two days,"

Mynx laughed and hugged her back,

"Two days."

Mynx watched the three leave before she turned to the door and entered. She was surprised to see one extra person in the church,

"Aphi?"

Aphi immediately dropped the sticks he had on the floor and turned around to see Mynx staring at him,

"Eh?"

Father Orsi wrapped his arm around Aphi's shoulder,

"Mynx! Your friend here wanted to pay a visit! He asked if we had extra space until he could get back on his feet, he just went through a bad break-up. Girlfriend took everything from him, do you know his girlfriend?"

Mynx deadpanned at Aphi but quickly recovered by walking over and smiling sadly at him,

"Oh, I'm really sorry, Aphi. Stay as long as you need."

Father Orsi clasped his hand,

"Fantastic. Now, what are you doing back so soon? I thought there would be a lot to do?"

Mynx scratched the back of her neck,

"Eh? Well...The doctor said I needed some days off cuz of my ribs. My captain gave me a week off so I decided to hold true to my promise, more visits from me,"

Father Orsi smiled,

"Great! I will tell all the kids now while you catch up with your friend,"

Mynx nodded and she crossed her arms when he left,

"So, you just got broken up with?"

Aphi laughed nervously and sighed,

"I'm sorry, Mynx...it's just that...I have no where to go...and you said I would be welcomed in Hage if I deserted."
