"Sometimes I always thought was that supposed to happened and it did and here I am in this situation where my life here is decided by my actions... when Aki told me I can join them I would've said it right then and there but somehow a part of me told me I'm going too fast and I should think it over.... but I knew this was sudden and during that time I really was thinking I need a reason for this and what she said because is to get rid of the Empire. then what? Them little things I always thought might get in the way till that moment happened right when I get out of the room"

As Masao get out of the room he see Famila, she was wearing a black and white ballet dress with a huge red ribbon on her neck and a umbrella. She come out of her room and gave Masao a particular look.

Masao: hey what up with that look?!

Familia walk up to Masao and headfirst grab his right arm

Familia: where is it....

Masao: where what?

Familia: your C-Grid.....

Masao: my what?

Familia: tell me... how can you fight without a C-Grid setup...

Masao: what is that anyway?

Familia:.....

Familia let go of Masao arm then she pull out an unused C-Grid and showed the setup of what the grid look like


Masao: what the-

Familia: touch it

Masao:.... fine

Masao and saw the grid glow

Familia: there it have awaken... your power

Masao: um can you tell me what going on


Familia: this is a C-Grid( Chrono grid) which is a mana sphere device that tap into the person potential, when wearing this it give you abnormal power and can grow by your will and only your will.... the more you keep fighting the more your willpower will go into the C-Grid and straighten it.

Masao: tell me why are you doing this...

Familia: because...

Familia look at Masao one more time however her eyes change and it was that of an unknown person with no heart, without any emotions.

Familia: i want you to live longer.... I really don't know how is that you could fight them Soldiers and you still survived.... like me

Familia walk away and went to the hangars

"As that moment pass I was wondering what she was talking about till now it seem like more than a fluke but i was wrong it was really something dark.... something I couldn't find out yet my heart was telling me to continued onwards drawing me in to her and now it make sense why im in this situation"

Meanwhile in Arcane

The emperor was looking outside the window to the west. The Emperor was wearing a red robe and noble clothing that was make of leather, his age was in his mid to late 30s and have white short hair. After a couple of minutes a Soldier came inside.

Soldier: excuse me my lord we bring you news that Ria is taking over by our forces.

Emperor: Bring news to the troops that we continue to push onwards to Lake Vepart and continue to downward to Lass.

Soldier: yes sir.

As the Soldier went out the emperor look at the window.

Emperor: how much time I have

Suddenly a dark figure appear sitting in the emperor bed with a book, the figure have a robe with a hood covering his face.

Unknown figure: it nearing the time

Emperor: I need more mana before opening the gateway to Hexvia.... the timeless land....

Meanwhile

(Outside of the Airship)

Masao went out of the Airship and he realized he on the port of the ship. he look up in the sky after a few minutes Ken walk next to him.

Ken: you know we're halfway there to Hondea


Masao: I know I know it just... why

Ken: Hm?

Masao: why is it everytime I try to figure out what happening and should I even be here.

Ken: listen don't talk that way

Masao: huh?

Ken: don't talk that way. There a reason behind everything simply because of your story

Masao: story?

Ken: yes story. your life didn't end that moment the Empire attack your hometown and that moment when you took Aki arm when you made a choice between life and death.
It not reason enough to believe that all of these events happen for a reason and one reason alone...

Masao:...

Ken: I'm going in it your decision whatever or not you want to go along with this. however just know that we won't go against you about this and it was only you alone.

Ken walk inside the airship however Masao call out his name.

Masao: Ken tell me your reason of why you joined Aki

Ken:.... you find it more difficult for you to understand and besides everyone have skeletons in they closet so if you want to know you need to do "Equivalent Exchange" with me before we talk about reason.

Ken continued to go towards the bridge

Masao:...

After a few hours they arrived at Hondea port and everybody went out of their airship however Masao told them to stop for a moment.

Aki: made your decision...

Masao: yes I don't know if this was meant to happened but I came to a conclusion that is

"I want to join"

Ken and Aki: To be Continued!!!
