Deep-Sea Girl: Lemy! Where are you?!

The smoke from the fire was getting into her lungs, making her cough. She eventually made it upstairs. She looked in the room where she got tied up. There was Lemy! He was unconscious.

Deep-Sea Girl: Lemy!

She rushed over to him, picked him up, and ran out of the room. She found the exit a couple of minutes later. She rushed out, still holding Lemy.

Alexiel: Shelby!

Shelby dropped to her knees and coughed.

Riliane: You are probably the craziest person I've ever met.

Gatt: Do you realize what you just did? You saved a killer!

Deep-Sea Girl: (after getting some fresh air back) Yes, I know that.

Gumillia: Why did you do that?

Deep-Sea Girl: He's only a kid. An orphaned kid.

Elluka: Even if he's still a kid, he killed a lot of people. You should've left him to die.

Alexiel: She doesn't want to see a kid die, even though he's a killer. She has a big heart.

Mr. Gills: He still needs medical care.

Deep-Sea Girl: Right. Riliane, is there any hospital nearby?

Riliane: As a matter of fact, there is. Let's go.


Meanwhile, in the hospital, the group was waiting on the nurse's results.

Alexiel: Shelby.

Deep-Sea Girl: Yeah?

Alexiel: You did the right thing by going back and rescuing Lemy.

Riliane: I didn't think so.

Alexiel: Well, no one asked your opinion.

Deep-Sea Girl: Please, stop fighting. I've had enough of you 2 bickering.

Riliane: I bet you often have fights with your brother, Shelby.

Deep-Sea Girl: Well, sometimes. But not as much as you 2. Besides, Riliane, I think you owe your brother an apology. Or have you forgotten?

Riliane: No, I didn't forget. Alexiel, I'm sorry I yelled at you and slapped you. I just want you and Shelby to have more children.

Alexiel: ...I forgive you.

Deep-Sea Girl: Now you have to hug him.

Riliane: I'm not doing that.

Instead, Alexiel hugged her.

Mr. Gills: Well, this thought just crossed my mind.

Mrs. Gills: What is it, dear?

Mr. Gills: What are we going to do about Lemy? His mother is dead, and his house got burned down.

Margarita: We would take him back with us, but Gumillia or Gatt would just kill him instantly.

Riliane: I still don't trust him. So, he's not living with us.

Alexiel: I guess that just leaves you and your family, Shelby.

Deep-Sea Girl: I don't know what we're going to do.

Mr. Gills: Maybe we should let Lemy decide.

Deep-Sea Girl: Actually, I have an offer for the members of Père Noël.

Gatt: And what kind of offer is that?

Deep-Sea Girl: How would you guys feel about living in Negi Root with us?
