ChiggerXninja: Death may lurk near... But will you run away in fear or brace yourself for the end


Noctis wonders around town looking for fresh ingredients until a ringing sound catches her attention she takes out her scroll seeing Yang's name, Noctis answers bringing the device up to her ear.

"Hello."

"Hey Jaws what's up?"

"What do you want?"

Yang sighs before speaking "It's Blake"

"What's wrong with her?"

Noctis looks at the fresh produce waiting for her answer.

"She looks like you"

"Yang... what have you taken did you steal someone's pills again?" Noctis quickly said worried about the Lioness health.

"WHAT NO!"

"Or are you drunk again?"

"NO"

"What is it then? That makes me look like her?"

Yang explains how Blake has been skipping out on meals and sleep because of her non-stop research of the White Fang.

"I told her about the barn incident but I don't know if it is enough..."

Noctis rubs her face in frustration before answering "Tell her a good place for coffee"

"You mean yours?"

"Yeah... Call me again if you need anything else" She hangs up then scratches the back of her head in frustration.

Blake sits down at the bar staring at the cup of coffee.

"Not a coffee drinker?" Noctis asks drying a jug.

"I prefer tea..." Blake takes a sip of her coffee cringing at the bitterness.

Noctis takes the coffee from her hands add some sugar and cream before giving it back to her.

"Why did you want me here?" Blake stares taking another sip.

Noctis sighs before taking off her glasses and leans in looking a Blake face to face. "Yang was right you are starting to look like me, not in a good" The bartender stands up straight crossing her arms.

"So what?" Blake looked away avoiding eye contact.

"You'll die if you keep this up" Noctis's monotone voice echoes through the empty restaurant.

Blake stares at her in disbelief as she starts to shake in fear of death. "The reason I'm still alive is that of my semblance eating fire provides me with energy, yes there are nights I wish I could sleep again but my dreams tend to be..." Noctis falls silent not wanting to finish.

"Blake, you want to save the fauns correct?" Noctis changes the subject.

"Yes more than anything!"

"Then save yourself first then learn to save others, I'm not saying to always save yourself, but to take care of yourself so you can save other what's the point if you fall?"

Blake looks down thinking "Just think about it, you're making people worry" Noctis takes her empty mug and walks towards the sink
