I went back home from my job at Aether Mental Hospital... I saw that demon thing again. Letti didn't make a sound, so she went unnoticed. Good for her... On the way back, I saw a relatively familiar face. But it wasn't a one I was looking forward to... His name is Lange Benedict. He works as a scientist at Synergy Corporation (SYNCO). I never really liked him... he's too forward and a little bit creepy. Lange came over and greeted me with a smirk and a catcall. I scoffed and walked away, I needed to get ready for my apprenticeship after all! I don't want to upset Ansem! Lange was persistent with his advances and I eventually snapped and yelled at him. Lange got scared and ran off.. My phone rang. It was Ansem... "Heya Amber, I just wanted to ask you to do me a quick favor when you get here... I saw that you had a Cervile's picture on your desk.. Could you bring her over... I want to see if she gets along with Belphagor, my new creature friend. Thanks and goodbye..."  Ansem has a creature? Surprise, surprise... I'm chomping at the bit to see what he has befriended!

*timeskip*

It turns out the creature that Ansem has is a Moonjumper... Moonjumpers are rare and the most famous of which is known as the Grimbeast, an unlikely hero in the teen novels written about his legends...  However, we all know that the Grimbeast is a creature of snappish tendencies in real life... Letti got along with Belphagor quite well... So much so that she didn't want to leave!  Once our meeting was over, Ansem stopped me. He asked me out to dinner tomorrow... A DATE with my dream guy and long-time crush! Every girl's wish is for this to happen, and for me it just came true!
