It was 4:00 in the morning. Joyce thought she heard the voice of Angel whispering, "Joyce, Joyce". She would not wake up. He then yells a little out loud, "Joyce!" Still nothing from her. Joyce finally wakes up at 6:00 A.M.
She looks down on the floor of her room only to notice Angel was sitting down, fully awake. And to her, it seemed as if he was thinking about something. She asks him while yawning, "Hey is everything okay? What are you thinking about?"
Angel ignores the question and asks Joyce, "Hey, do you know anything about your friend's parents or anything about her?" "No, she never really talked about her parents." "Hmm, what's her name?" "It's Lucy. Why are you asking me this?"
"Last question Joyce, when did she leave and why?" "How the heck do you know that?" "She couldn't have just left. There must've been a reason she left. I don't think it's your fault Joyce, but I do believe that there was an argument between the both of you. That could be a reason as to why she left."
Once Angel said this, he looks up at Joyce. "Okay, first off, that's none of your concern. Second, she left because yes, there was an argument between both of us. Let's just say that I hurt her feelings, but it wasn't my fault! You have to believe me, Angel."
"I know it's not your fault Joyce. Although, if her feelings were hurt while making her feel hopeless and... If she left on her own alone then... There is a possibility that your friend might be in danger or she could be dead."
"My friend might be dead!?" Joyce says in a guilty tone. She puts her head down and begins to think about it for a little. "You know Angel, I do miss her. She's been the bestest friend I've ever had. She's the only one that has supported me throughout the years. That is until you came along and now you're the one that has been supportive." "Joyce, I think I have some good news," Angel says. "Really? What is it?" Joyce asks.
"There is a possibility that maybe she's not dead, but she could be in a difficult situation or she's trapped in some dark place. Although you see, there are two possibilities here. One possibility is that the shadows took her and she's being held captive. The second possibility is that she's okay, but wherever she is, she might not be in a safe condition. So my question to you here is: Do you want to find your friend Lucy?" "Yes, I do Angel." "Good! Then we need to start training after breakfast." "Training?" Joyce asks.
After they both had their breakfast that Nana made, they go outside to train. "Okay Joyce as said before, Just in case we face any kind of danger, you need to know how to defend yourself."
Joyce then takes out a gun she was hiding from behind her back. Angel's eyes opened widely, "Woah! Are you sure you want to be holding that firearm?" "Yeah! You never know if I might need it," Joyce said. "Well then let me see if you know how to use it."
Joyce then shoots three shots to three cans she aligned outside. "Okay, but you also need to know Martial Arts. Look, if someone is about to hit you close to your face with their right arm, you can block them with your left. That is if they are in front of you. Now, if someone is going to kick you from a side, you block with two arms as you turn your body first! Or, if you're lucky, grab their foot so that person is unbalanced and you have the advantage to flip him or her off their feet.
