  "V-v-verglas!! You h-hurt him!!" He whimpered

  "Shut up Cooke" Verglas scolded rolling his eyes "Now Mr Tanseys huh? It's a pleasure"

  Verglas laughs as the old man freezes in place "W-who are you?!" Mr Tanseys cried,

  Verglas turned behind him looking confused "Uhh Feiticeira why is he stupid" Verglas stroked his chin confused

  "It's cause he's asleep stupid you need the.. chant" She turned to Cooke who jumped back

  "I-i-i don't wana!! But i have t-too.. I'm sorry.." he took a long pause as Verglas leaned bored grabbing a bar of chocolate and scoffing it down in one bite "Arise awaken your rest arise awaken my Lest" Cooke chanted,

  "Just let us under the tree buddy" Verglas laughed putting his hand on his shoulder before instantly creating a ball of ice around his friends a sound of a gunshot strikes the ice not even denting it

  "Looks like we have some company..?"

  "You're too god damn fast!!" Kurai ran after Nozomi as she sped past him Even Katsuo couldn't keep up

  "And you just awakened??" Katsuo shouts and thinks to himself "Well she obviously doesn't have the combat ability so that's why she's sticking at a distance it's too avoid physical conflict that must be her weak point! If I can just close the distance I can catch up to her" but just as Katsuo finished his thoughts Nozomi sped by hitting him a kick to the shin and an elbow to the nose making it bleed he leapt back and wiped his nose

  "I'm impressed you're fast"

  She giggled "And you can't even catch up.. thought I was the Noob here"

  She mocks before sprinting at Katsuo who smirks "All that trash talking made her forget her surroundings"

  4 beats surrounded her in an X shape Katsuo screamed "Beat! X COLLISON" The 4 Beats shot a condensed stream of water piercing Nozomi dropping her to her knees

  "You're fast but you lack awareness and combat prowess.. but you have unreal potential" He extended his hand

  "I'll grow and I won't disappoint Katsoo!" She beams a smile

  "That's not my name!!" Katsuo screams

  "So what's for dinner" Nozomi asks sitting on the Couch watching TV

  "Well it depends It's usually something new every day and well Shikis is the biggest foodie in the world so every day it's something new Imports into here are crazy expensive due to the whole secretism it usually resorts to Shiki flying there" Kurai jokes

  "Shiki can fly!!?" Nozomi shouts in shock "Lucky.."

  Kurai and Katsuo stare at each other before bursting out laughing "No he can't fly but he's so fast he may as well.. the guy made it from here to Italy in like 25 minutes the pizza was still hot!!" Kurai replies

  "Italy?!? Jeez I mean Polaret is landlocked right i mean I'm not from here"Nozomi strokes her chin

  "You're not from here Nozomi?! Ooh, where are you from then?" Katsuo inquires curiously

  "I'm from Michigan but my parents are Brazilian ain't that cool?" She smugly grins

  "Wait so if you're from America how did you make it to Polaret i mean we're not very close to America and landlocked too Plane trips are expensive too I mean I've never left so.." Kurai replies

  "You've never left Polaret?? I mean it's giant so I can understand but never anywhere else??" Nozomi raises an eyebrow

  "I don't have anywhere else I'd even want to go anyway! I bet if I left Grey would go on tour and I wouldn't miss that for the world" Kurai beams

  "Grey..? Grey.. oh Oh! You mean Greystone.." Nozomi questions Kurai

  "YEAH!! She's like my favourite singer ever are you a fan too!!?" Kurai grins

  "No I think Grey's really bad.. her music's so boring!' Nozomi replies smirking

  "IM GONNA KILL YOU!!!" Kurai shouts at the top of his lungs and he turns red with anger
