Akito P. O. V
We were in the car. Zero was driving us to a dinner that was well known here. It was silent. I look back to Azuna who was pouting.
"Aww Azuna don't pout. We're going somewhere to eat. " I said with the biggest grin on my face.
She look to me. And glare at me.
"How could you be thinking about eating. When we need to train for Jellal."
It was Zero turn to talk.
"If you want to get rid of jellal. Then you must rest and eat properly."
There was silence and so much tension between Zero and Azuna.
"So today and tomorrow you will not train. You will sleep, eat, and go do something fun."
Azuna slam her hand on the car seat.
"What no.  We need to train.  Now more then ever. What if Jellal finds us."
Zero never left his gaze from the road.
"You said that three months ago. Right now the war is at a stalemate."
I look about to Zero. I can feel tension rising.
"S-stalemate? No Zero! We lost. The kingdom fell. The king is dead. The...."
I turn to her to see she is about to cry. But shook her head.
"The captin of the business division is dead."
Zero look sad after she said that.
Loki.......hes been gone for 6 months now. I miss his laughter even if I heard it for a day.
Zero sighed.
"Azuna I know we lost. But I'm also right when I said we are at a stalemate."
"How?" Azuna said bitterly under her breath.
"Because we're not waiting for Jellal come to us."
Azuna and I looking at him like he said the wildest thing.
"In two months time we will be looking for him. And end it all."
I laugh liking the sound of the idea. I turn my gaze to the trees as we reach closer to the dinner. In the back of the trees I see a pond with the deer at the edge getting a drink.
Azuna laid back and copy me.
"And you told me not to get reckless."
It was Zero was laughing a little. They bump heads sometimes but when they agree to one thing especially when it spells disaster for the enemy. Just run.
"It not being reckless. Its war. And this time we won't lose."
We finally got to the dinner. We took our seats at a booth by the window. I was sitting with Azuna on the left with her inside. As Zero took the right by himself. The waitress takes our order.
"But Azuna im only saying two months because you need to rest properly. So I only want you training for two days a week. Or an hour a day."
She look at him with intense stare. They stay like that till our food arrive. I order a big cheese burger with fries with a Coke. With a milkshake that's coming afterwards. Zero order chicken tenderlion in a bun with onion rings with coffee and a lava cake for dessert.  Azuna got a steak (medium-rare) with bake potato, cream corn and a butter roll with lemonade. With banana boat for later.
The waitress left and look nervous because these two was having a stare down.
"Fine."
Azuna broke the silence. Even though they would make a great team. They argue alot.
"You know if you two didn't argue so much. I say you two will make a pretty good team."
Azuna pick up her roll and shook her head.
"No we all make a great team. We're family."
She look at me with earnest in her eyes. I love how her eyes are beautiful and how the two color mixes together. And the blonde hair t match the part. A vision flash through my head. It was Azuna when she was a child sitting in a forest like ground but the walls was stones. There was a crystal tree. As Azuna reach her hand to touch it. The vision end and sharp pain went through my head. I grab my head as I tried to stop it from my head. A unfamiliar voice ring in.
"Come back to me."
"Akito?"
