[Primary Members Arc - #7]
...----------------...
"Hey, are you okay?" someone's voice was heard when Araya had just opened her eyes.
"What ... what happened?" holding his head with his right hand, Araya asked after sitting down. Earlier, Araya had missed several events when she was unconscious for several minutes. Or maybe, a few hours?
"You passed out earlier, now Henry and the others are trying to retrieve that element stone." Lucas explained as he briefly flicked his chin towards the window.
Well, right now they're both on the plane. Something bad happened to Araya a moment ago.
Araya was silent for a moment. He stared at his transformation tool which was still the same as before.
"Shiroi, what exactly happened earlier?" Araya asked Shiroi. Since the sea water shook earlier, he had not remembered anything and woke up when he was on the plane.
"That was the effect of the element stone. He did not want to be taken away, so he refused in such a way." Shiroi's statement made Araya return silent. He thought, does the elemental stone have feelings?
"You mean, he refused to be taken?"
"Yes." Yeah."
Araya tried to think while looking straight at the window. Right now, it's early morning. The sky was not as dark as before.
"Sir Lucas ..." call Araya suddenly. Lucas immediately looked at him with a casual look.
"When have they been there?" ask to make sure. Araya has a bad feeling about this. He hopes that everything is okay. Everyone, both the primary team, and other squads who were struggling around the headquarters.
"Three hours ago." Lucas replied briefly. There was no look of worry that Araya could see. "They're fine, I called her ten minutes ago" she said.
That certainly makes Araya a little relieved. Just slightly. Within ten minutes, there must be a lot going on somewhere else.
"Then, let's go there, brother!" moving from his seat, Araya wanted to quickly help his colleagues who were trying on the mission.
"Hey, you're still not recovering. You better take a break." stop Lucas while holding Araya's left wrist.
"There's no time for rest, brother. Brother Lucas remembered, the friends of the other squads are also struggling. We must also complete this mission immediately so that we can quickly return …." Araya insisted. If his hand could not escape from Lucas's grasp, then another way he could use was to pull him to rush to the scene.
"Based on a stubborn child" Lucas said. The man walked directly behind Araya while several times staring at his hand that grasped Araya's wrist.
However, not even the two of them got out of the plane, they had been startled by a creature that was near the engine room.
"Geez! What is that thing?!" asked Araya while standing glued when looking at the form of the creature.
The animal was small, had rather long ears, and was now consuming energy and damaging aircraft engines. It looks pretty weird and kind of creepy.
"That's ... Gremlin." Lucas replied in a whispering voice. He immediately pulled Araya close to him to get a little away from the little creature.
"Gremlin? What animal is that? I've never heard of him," Araya asked again. From behind the room divider, Araya observed the movements of the creature. The gremlin had already managed to damage and disconnect dozens of cables. Lots of wires scattered in the engine room.
"That mythological creature was popular in Europe. He likes to damage aircraft engines and eat up his energy."
Araya fell silent after hearing the two words, 'creature' and 'mythology'. But isn't that just a myth?
Not long after. There were strange sounds just below them. The sound of his voice is difficult to explain. The two teenagers were staring down simultaneously.
"Park Hana, wait!"
A JDUAK!
"Ouch!" while rubbing his forehead, Araya felt pain and pain due to his head being hit by the wall. He ran while closing his eyes, of course this is the result.
Araya still did not make a shout out from Lucas. Regardless of the man, Araya ran out of the plane. After all, he already knew that Lucas would definitely follow him.
"You okay? Thy forehead bangjol ..." while checking Araya's forehead that was hit by the wall earlier, Lucas again asked her how she was. Researching it while hoping that nothing bumps in the forehead.
"I'm fine." Araya tried to cover her forehead with bangs that were parallel to her eyebrows. Returned it as before after Lucas ruffled a little.
"I-it! It's Gremlin!" Araya stuttered after realizing that the Gremlin was already in the doorway of the plane. The distance between them and the creature was only a few meters.
"Something seems strange. Gremlin is only in fiction. If it's here, it must be Darkness Swordman." Lucas almost muttered. Staring sharply at the creature, Lucas put on a watchful attitude.
"Wah wow. Turns out you're pretty smart than I thought."
SYUU ….
"Darkness Swordman?!" Araya and Lucas spoke almost simultaneously. Right next to the Gremlin, appeared all-black armored creatures that were already very familiar to them.
Right, all they saw was the Darkness Swordman. Not wrong anymore. Seen, the Darkness Swordman lowered his head and rubbed the Gremlin's head.
"Good work, buddy" he said, who immediately responded to an enthusiastic nod from the Gremlin. And in the blink of an eye, the Gremlin had already disappeared just like that.
"Park Hana, he's a level two Darkness Swordman. He's very dangerous. So, you better get out of here and leave me alone!" Lucas looked back slightly while his right hand held Araya's left shoulder so that the girl would not come face to face with Darkness Swordman.
"What's? Why do I have to go? I'll help you, brother!" Araya insisted while dismissing Lucas' right hand that had been on his shoulder.
"No! You're not strong enough! You leave immediately and let me deal with it!"
"Why should I go? If I'm weak, there's no way I'll be a primary member, brother! Anyway, I'll help you! Can't refuse!"
"Hoaahm .. have you argued? Ah, I just found out you're the primary members." Darkness Swordman mediated the debate of the two of them. If only he had not spoken, perhaps Araya and Lucas' brief debate was still ongoing.
The two of them both stared at the Darkness Swordman. Early in the morning, the creature was already making a mess on the plane. Fortunately, Lucas was asked to accompany Araya on the plane. If not, the story will be different.
The two Elemental members were still silent. They had no intention of asking about what the Darkness Swordman wanted. Because they already know the exact answer. He wanted their elemental stone.
"Hey, you two? Where are the others?" as he moved his feet closer to the two, Darkness Swordman asked in a tone as if they were familiar.
"You don't need to know!" lucas replied firmly. He was still putting up the horses and a watchful attitude just in case the Darkness Swordman attacked suddenly.
"I will not attack you before they return. If you two are weak! You two are no match for me!"
