Fate: Trial Of The Past

The Two

The army Hugo has is strange, much like my team, only they had more experience. Yet the same age. "So tell me what you all know about the Overlord." Hugo brought us to a shed. The place was remade to look like a battle planning area. "I've been meaning to ask, are all of you from the same time." Hugo asked me.

"Yeah, yes." I answered, looking to make sure the whole team was there. "And I do recall you naming some of your team members, however you forgot two of them." I looked at him in confusion, "Wait two more?" But there are only six of us. How are there two more and I didnt know? I turned around to see a face I did not recognize as part of the group.

"Okay bye now!" The guy ran off. "Hey catch him!" Hugo yelled and everyone started chasing him. "Stop, I promise I'll leave. Just leave me alone!" He continued to run even after the multiple attempts he dodged of his own capture. "Yeah, he is not in my group." I looked at the other guy. "Manual!" I yelled as soon as I remembered him. "How did you get here?"

"Oh, he has been with us for the entire time. Ever since we met up with Cayden again." Kaida told me. "You mean, this whole time I have been ignoring him?" I looked over at him. "So it's about time you finally stopped ignoring me." 

"Why have you been there..." I paused, he said I was ignoring him. "Ignoring? What do you mean ignoring you?" He walked up to me. "Well everytime I tried to speak you'd..." So he was with us the whole time. He was there all along. "You would then not speak to me..." But that other guy, what about him? "And so now you know that I am here." I looked at Kaida. "Was the other guy with us too?" 

"Hey! There you go again, ignoring me!" I looked at Manual. Right, you are here, I need to acknowledge that. "Sorry Manny. I will no longer pretend you are gone." He smiled, "Anyway, does this mean I have to introduce you to the team?" He looked at me, "No, Cayden did that." He pointed at Kaida, "The beautiful one, Kaida, is your girlfriend..." 

"What!" Both Kaida and I yelled. "No, she is not my girlfriend, why did he keep saying that?" Cayden, you still give me trouble, even after death. How!? "Okay so, this is your friend. But what about the other guy?" I slowly turned my head to look at Hugo with the captured guy. Who are you? 

"Yeah, I really don't know how he got here?" His clothing seemed of the correct time. Our time of course. "Aiden, I'm Erik." Erik. I don't remember meeting Erik. "You don't remember me?" Obviously not. "Man you really treat us like garbage." How rude! I looked at him in disgust. "Hey, I don't even remember meeting you."

He looked at Kaida, "Yeah because you do what your boyfriend does." Kaida's face was flooded with redness, "I am not his girlfriend." She soon walked away at a fast pace. "Yeah, she is not my girlfriend, yet." He looked at me, "Untie me, I am your friend too!"
