Kiana And Sal's Bizzare RomCom Drabble Collection

KiaSal Drabble 44: 'Forgotten Memories 3.0' Ragna's Counterattack Act 2

"What is happening?" The Shicksal Academy student body assembled at the administrative building. It was a big marble mansion, that had Gothic architecture along with Greek pillars and arches. Sal had always found it to be an ugly medeley of multiple culture pushed upon each other.

"Father really needs to stop Amber from doing whatever she wants." He sighed but continued his ascent towards the ten-foot-tall gateway. Behind him was Susannah, who had removed her heels and was now walking barefoot.

"They are really creating a ruckus downstairs."

"Can't blame them," He got back into character as his eyes glinted with brooding-Gundam-protagonist's pain. "That's what war does to civilians. Those who have nothing to do with these meaningless affairs and yet getting caught up in them. How everyone from White-base would feel if they saw this, how their sacrifice after the One-Year-War still led to more conflict rather than peace." [^1]

"Okay...?" replied Susannah, she had a lot of questions, more than her head could handle but for the sake of her best friend she decided to ignore it. Just for the next few hours she wanted to see what was her childhood friend up to. But that doesn't mean she has to stop teasing.

"So is that your sad backstory, Gundam pilot? [^2]" She stuck out her tongue and winked. "Though I have one complaint, why am I not in it?"

"I have no idea what you are talking about, Scramble Br- I mean, ahem, Miss Manatt."

"I see how it is." Susannah had an evil smirk. Slowing down her pace, she placed her right foot behind her left, purposefully tripping herself. However, Sal noticed the fall and moved down, catching her in his arms.

"Princess are you okay?" He asked frantically. Though she could see the fading smile, holding back his complains.

"Oh my gods," She replied overdramatically. "Gundam pilot, I can no longer walk seems like the sniper got my leg. Whatever shall I do now?"

"I see..." Sal replied courteously, concealing his annoyance. "I guess I will have to leave you behind, Princess."

"Is that how you Federation pilots are? Leaving a wounded woman behind? [^3]" Susannah mock cried and gazed at him accusingly.

"Fine, I will carry you."

"Yay- I mean, you are amazing, Gundam Pilot."

Picking her up bridal style, Sal whispered: "Such a pain you are, Scramble Brains."

"I can hear you, idiot."

"I know."

"So much for being heroes together."

"..."

Susannah in his arms giggled to her heart's content as the boy ran towards where Otto Apocalypse along with Bianka, Theresa, Amber and Nagamitsu were waiting.
