     After a hour of training and a whole lot of electrocution it was noon and Noct was left panting on the ground on his side. And for some reason the lady supposedly named Aranea finally decides to stop the training for the day.
    I need you to follow me." She said with a monotone voice.
    Noctis slowly got up sweat covered the sides of his head his sea blue eyes shaking in pain. He slowly started to follow her into another small room. This room had new clothing and different weapons hung everywhere. There was a light panel on the ceiling with a tint of green coming out of it.
    Noctis slowly observed each piece of clothing first noticing a pair of clothes that look like his but the sleeves were longer and it had a cape attached to it. The cape want all the way down to his his feet which made it look mysterious. The coat that has the attached cape was black, and  the shirt that was hidden behind the coat was a dark blue. It also came with a leather belt that had pouches attached to them to hold small objects, the shorts were leather too and so were the boots.
    Noct couldn't keep his eyes away from the the outfit, Aranea noticed and she snapped her fingers the some soldiers went into the room and picked up the outfit and put it on a small table.
    "Now pick a weapon we don't have all day." She said very impatient.
   Noctis went up the one handed sword rack, not really into any other type of weapons even though he can use them.
   He finally decided on a sword that had a black type blade and the handle hand small designs with a blue gem in the center of both sides.
   "Ok, now let's take you to the bathroom, take a shower, and get ready." She said walking out of the room waving her hand indicating him to follow.
   The soldiers picked up the outfit and weapon following them toward the restroom.
                            *the group*
    Everyone was still silent not really knowing what to say. Prompto was fidgeting with his camera looking at past pictures. Gladio was nose deep in a book. And Ignis was driving still.
    "We should be there in about 10-15 minutes." Ignis said having Prompto snap out and a sparkle of energy glistened in his eyes.
    'We're almost there... just hang on okay?' Prompto thought crossing his fingers.
                              *Noctis*
    After Noctis's short shower he put on his new outfit, it's fit him just right which was a little shocker, but continued to get ready.
   He walked out of the bathroom to see the guy with the white hair again.
   Noctis found out his name was Ravus. Aranea said a few things about him, and that he was also Lady Lunafreya's brother.
   "Come on, I'm going to show you were your going to be staying." He said walking down a long dark hallway.
    Noctis followed looking down not wanting to to be here, he felt a urge of wanting to be somewhere else. But where? Is there a thing he needed to do? Something urged the back of his head but he pushed it aside continuing to follow Ravus.
    The walked felt like forever but when they were about 2/3 of the way there, a alarm went off. Green and yellow lights went off in the base, soldiers ran to there ships. One soldier came up to Ravus, "Noctis please stand over there." He ordered him,
     Noctis went and watched as the soldier told him what was happening. Ravus walked up to Noct, "follow me we have intruders, and your going to come and help." He said walking to a ship, Noctis close behind.
    Noct didn't really worry what was happening, he just followed orders as if he's been doing this for a while now. Nothing fazes him, if he got slapped he would yell or hiss in pain he wouldn't care, he would follow orders, and try to stay alive.
    They got into the ship, the doors closed and off they went.
                               *the group*
     "Thanks a lot Prompto." Gladio said smacking him in the side of the head.
     "At least we know the base his here..." he said with a small smile.
     "Now lets go bust a base!" He said excitement in his light blue eyes.
     "We're not here to bust any base, we're here to get Noct remember." Ignis said pushing his glasses back in the bridge of his nose.
     Promto new why they were here he just didn't want to think of it as getting Noct back but as if something fun, and less hurtful.
    About 5 air ships started heading into their direction, noticing they ready there weapons.
    But something weird happened only one of the ships opened up leaving the rest behind it, there doors were closed.
                                *Noctis*
     "Okay put this in your ear." Ravus held out a ear piece so they could talk to each other from a distance.
     Noctis picked it up from his hand and put it in his right ear. "Okay, when I tell you to come down, I want you to follow the order and jump out and stand right by my side, got it." He ordered Noct.
    "Yes." He said no emotion in his voice.
    "Good." He said jumping down out of the ship.
                             *the group*
    They saw the same man who took Noct jumping out of the air ship, landing on the ground in front of them.
   "Where is Noct!" Prompto said walking out in front of the man but being stopped by Gladio's arm dragging him back.
   He just stood there looking at the three of them with a smirk.
   "You three must be so eager to see him don't you?" Ravus said still smirking.
    "Something's up." Prompto whispered.
    "Well where is he." Ignis asked crossing his arms.
     The man held out a finger 'one second' he worded out with his lips. He placed a finger to his ear saying something, they couldn't make out.
    Foot step could be heard from inside the the air ship, they all looked up, they were filled with relief, but also fear.
                              *noctis*
    Noctis heard the words from his earpiece say, "we're ready." He slowly walked to the opening of the door and jumped with his new cape flowing the wind and landing about a few feet behind Ravus. He walked to his side just as ordered.
   Noct couldn't help but feel so much familiarity with the small group. But he pushed it aside.
  "Noct your alright!" The blonde one said running up to Noctis.
   On high alert Noctis summoned his sword, and pointed the blade out toward the blonde ones neck making him stop in his tracks. Noctis's face showed no emotion toward the group, or the blonde who was foots away from him.
   "N-Noct...?" Prompto asked fear replaced the excitement in his eyes.
