Royan: “What a small world, huh?”

Sarah: “...”

Camren: “That… must be a bit difficult…”

Katie: [Hey, Cammy, what are you guys talking about?]

Camren: [Oh right, here hold on.]

Camren: “Here Roy… I-is it ok if I call you that?”

Royan: “Took a bit longer than I expected for you guys to say that haha. Of course. What is it?”

Camren: “Could you put this on? Katie wants to know what we're talking about as well.”

Royan: “That's right, thank you.”

Royan: [Hello? Testing testing-]

Katie: [YOU IDIOT! NEVER DO THAT AGAIN YOU READ ME??? ARE YOU ALRIGHT???]

Royan: [Well as you can see… I am intact, haha.]

Katie: [Seriously! Who TF are you???]

Royan: [I was just telling them, that I am a Gilluan soldier, and how I lost my late wife in our last mission together.]

Katie: [Oh crap… You had a wife?]

Royan: [Yes, we used to do everything together.]

Katie: [So you lost your wife, then…]

Royan: [I was asked of the chief to remarry Evangeline.]

Katie: [That must've been difficult…]

Royan: [It was… I had a lot to process when I was told that. It also does not help the fact that my wife's name was also Evangeline.]

Katie: [Oh shi-]

Millie: “AHHHHH!”

Sarah: “Millie?”

Camren: “Ms. Han? Are you ok?!?”

*Shhhhh

Royan: “What…”

Sarah: “MILLIE!”

*Crack!

Sarah: “WHAT- WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HER???”

Ms. Han: “I-its alright! Really! Fred is just adjusting to her body!”

*Click!

Sarah: “GET THAT THING… OUT OF MILLIE RIGHT NOW!”

*Click!

Royan: “Sarah, put the gun down.”

Sarah: “Do you see what it's doing to her body??? HER ARMS SHOULDN'T BE BENDING BACK LIKE THAT!”

Royan: “Miss, what is happening to her body right now?”

Ms. Han: “Like I said… Fred is getting used to her body. I-it may look bad, but I assure you that she will be alright. Any damage she's doing, she will be able to fix-”

Sarah: “SO IT IS BREAKING HER?!? TAKE IT OUT-”

*Crack! Crack!

Sarah: “MILLIE!”

Sarah: “Millie…”

Royan: “It seems like it calmed down.”

Sarah: “W-when is she waking up?!”

Ms. Han: “I… do not know… That could depend on her compatab-”

*Crack!

Millie: “AHHHHHH!!!!!! FUCK! IT HURTS! IT HURTS!”

Sarah: “MILLIE! ARE YOU OK???”

Millie: “SIS MY ARM! MY LEGS THEY ALL HURT!!!!!”

Sarah: “DOC WHAT DO WE DO?????”

Ms. Han: “L-like I said, Fred will be able to fix any damage done to her body! If anything, she should have-”

Millie: “Fuck… It- huh, it doesn't hurt anymore?”

Ms. Han: “Ha… there we go.”

Sarah: “Millie!!!”

Millie: “Sarah, where are we- WATCH OUT!”

Sarah: “W-wait, we lost Millie. He saved us…”

Millie: “YOU- what did you do with my sister!”

Sarah: “Wait it's true! I-I’m sorry but he really did save us.”

Millie: “Sis… I don't understand. What happened?”

Sarah: “He shot you down… and me too. In exchange for some info they agreed to bring you back to life.”

Millie: “I… died?”

Royan: “Enough talking. You two, go back home. From what you told me neither of you are going to be safe here any longer.”

Sarah: “We’re not safe anywhere… Like I said, we can't go back home.”

Royan: “If what you said is true, then I cannot ensure your safety myself, on top of my own village. I will have a lot on my plate, and I have to head back to Gillua to inform everyone about the plan. You there, Amelia, am I right? Do you know what the other nations want from Gillua?”

Millie: “You told him?”

Sarah: “I- I'm sorry…”

Millie: “... We don't know why, but all we know is that we've been getting more hits on you guys recently.”

Royan: “Then I really must go back. Ma’am, when do you suppose Miss Evangeline will wake up?”

Ms. Han: “I-I'm not certain. I was able to get all the poison out of her body, so now her body may just be recovering from the damages, along with the stress and shock.”

Royan: “... Would it be dangerous to relocate her now?”

Ms. Han: “I… cannot ensure her stability.”

Millie: “... Listen hotshot, Sarah and I will be fine- urgh… what was that?”

Sarah: “Are you alright Millie?”

Millie: “Yeah, it just feels like something knocking on my head.”

Ms. Han: “You may be feeling the side effects. I don't know how much of Fred is left inside you, but there will be traces.”

Millie: “Something's inside me?”

Sarah: “I'll… tell you later, but Millie’s right. You don't have to worry about us. You may be able to kill us, but we've gotten to this point for a reason.”

Royan: “Well in that case… could you look after Miss Evangeline in my absence?”

Sarah: “?!”

Millie: “!?”

Camren: “?!? Roy are you-”

Millie: “Yeah, are you crazy?”

Sarah: “I mean I get that you don't wanna marry her, but damn dude.”

Royan: “Well you guys are no longer in need of carrying out the mission anymore right? Also, as you said, you know that I could kill you again, and if your fingers get itchy at any point, Camren here could keep you guys in check for me!”

Camren: “Um…”

Millie: “HA! You think this twig can do anything? Don't look down on us you bitch! I don't know what you did with Sarah, but I can still kill the girl, even if you’re gonna kill me after.”

Sarah: “Millie… he's right, we're done.”

Millie: “What- Are you insane? Think about mom! Think about Alex! Did you really give up on seeing them-”

Sarah: “I'M NOT RISKING YOUR LIFE ANYMORE!”

Millie: “Wh-”

Sarah: “Ever since you left home with me, you've been nothing but stubborn! ‘I don't have to go home!’ ‘I’ll be fine!’ Millie you just died! Snap the fuck out of it!”

Millie: “...”

Sarah: “WELL!?”

Millie: “You… you know that if it weren’t for me… you would have been in my shoes.”

Sarah: “! YOU-”

Millie: “You think- You think you’re the only one who feels the way you do? There was never talking you out of joining the King’s Gambit from the start… Do you really think I would’ve ever let you do this by yourself? Remember when coming out of bootcamp… we promised each other that no matter what, we would be there for each other… And now! Now that I died! You say you don’t want to risk my life anymore?!? I’d rather die again being with you, than let you do this by yourself anymore!”

Sarah: “You can’t possibly-”

Millie: “Yeah, you can’t possibly think I would rather have you die on me, right? Then let's do this together! Let’s promise each other, to not die on one another. Is that too hard, sis?!?”

Sarah: “... Don’t…”

Millie: “?”

Sarah: “Don’t you ever… Leave me alone again, got it?”

Millie: “I’m sorry.”

*Hug

Sarah: “I guess… neither of us had a choice to begin with, huh?”

Millie: “Yeah, you weren’t the only one.”

Sarah: “...”

Millie: “Say… can we really not go back to mom and Alex?”

Sarah: “I don’t know… but KG won’t hunt us down as long as we’re away from P.H-”

Royan: “I apologize for interrupting,”

Sarah: “What? Can’t you see we’re busy?”

Royan: “Could you tell me, are there any further details about the ambush on Gillua you forgot to mention earlier?”

Millie: “...”

Sarah: “What do we get out of it? We’re already supposed to watch over your girlfriend here.”

Royan: “I promise to keep you both safe, and eventually, get you home.”

Millie: “That’s a bold claim, freak, one too risky for us to rely on.”

Royan: “I promise. After all, I am a man of my words, remember?”

Millie: “... Do we tell him sis?”

Sarah: “Ha… Fine then. If you’re gonna act, better act now. Don’t know how much of it you can prevent, but by tonight, there’s a plan to burn down the village, from the ground up. People will be sent from everywhere, P.H, Hilland, BBK, New Brone, and a few others, they know your military won’t go down easily, so they pulled every possible string they could to make sure the plan was executed, to an utter perfection.”

Royan: “Why?!? Why are they going after us with such force???”

Sarah: “Beats me, like you said, we’re just pawns.”

Royan: “...”

Sarah: “And last I checked, Terrado doesn’t have a military, isn’t that right, shrimp?”

Camren: “... Uh- Oh, me?”

Millie: “Who else man…”

Camren: “Um… Yeah, we don’t have a military.”

Sarah: “Figured, no wonder we were sent so far to just kill you guys. As long as you’re here, they won’t stop sending people to kill you guys.”

Royan: “Are they… looking to get rid of every Gilluan?”

Sarah: “Looks like an ethnic cleansing of sorts.”

Millie: “But like Sarah said, you better go now if you want to do anything, how long did it take you to get here?”

Royan: “2 days…”

Millie: “Tick tock~”

Royan: “Camren, could I trust you here to look after Miss Evangeline?”

Camren: “I- I promise… You don’t have a choice, do you?”

Royan: “Right… And you two.”

Sarah: “Yeah yeah, so long as no one else’s sent from Point~”

Royan: “...”

Millie: “We’re joking, go save your village or some shit.”

Royan: “Thank you both… Here Camren, take this.”

Camren: “Woah- is this a real gun?”

Royan: “Stay safe out there, until we meet again my friend, and don’t forget to keep these two in check from time to time.”

Sarah: “Asshole.”

Millie: “Yeah, just get out of here.”

Royan: “... Also, thank you ma’am, for taking care of Miss Evangeline. Please continue to stay by her side.”

Ms. Han: “O-of course, you have nothing to worry about.”

Royan: “Well then-”

Katie: [Wait! Where are you going?]

Royan: [Oh, that’s right. I must get back to Gillua by tonight, or apparently everyone could be in danger.]

Katie: [Tonight??? But it’s at least a day’s worth traveling away!]

Royan: [That’s why I must leave now. I apologize for not repaying you in any way, however I truly appreciate you taking care of me. I will return with plenty of-]

Katie: [That’s not what I’m worried about! Are you going to be ok???]

Royan: [I promise to take care of myself. Until next time, Katherine.]

Katie: [... You better.]

Royan: “Oh here, you can have this back.”

Camren: “That’s right, the communicator, thank you.”

Royan: “I’ll be back, everyone!”

*Clank!

*Creak-

*Clank!

Camren: “...”

Sarah: “...”

Millie: “...”

Katie: “...”

...

Camren: “...”

Sarah: “Well?”

Camren: “?”

Millie: “Well this is awkward.”

Ms. Han: “T-then, I must go for now. I’ve been away from the preparation for quite some time now, so they must be wondering where I disappeared to.”

Camren: “But, will Eva be ok?”

Ms. Han: “She’s just asleep as of now. Her vitals have become stable, so I’d say she just needs someone to make sure nothing else happens.”

Camren: “So there’s nothing to worry about, right?”

Ms. Han: “Yes, that’s right.”

Camren: “Alright, that’s good.”

Ms. Han: “Let me know if anything happens, I will leave that communicator with you.”

Camren: “Oh right, thank you.”

Ms. Han: [Katie, I will be going back now. You look tired, you should go back home as well. I presume that Camren will be fine with the two.]

Katie: [Oh… Alright. Wait, are you sure he’ll be fine?!?]

Ms. Han: [Yes, you can trust me.]

Katie: [Okaaaay… But I don’t think I need to-]

Ms. Han: [You should.]

Katie: (?)

Katie: [Alright.]

Katie: [Hey, Cammy… I’m going back home now.]

Camren: [Oh right, wait are you sure? You’ll be fine?]

Katie: [That took you long enough…]

Camren: [What do you mean?]

Katie: [Nothing, but yeah. Ms. Han said I should go home for now.]

Camren: [She did huh…]

Katie: [Yeah… But hey, watch out for her.]

Camren: [? What do you mean?]

Katie: [Idk, but something about her isn’t right.]

Katie: (You too Cammy…)

Camren: [Okay? I guess I will.]

Katie: [And you sure you’ll be fine with these two?]

Camren: [I… Guess I have no choice… I have to be here for Eva.]

Katie: [Right… That you do.]

Camren: [Stay safe. I love you.]

Katie: [I love you more, idiot. Let me know if anything else happens, promise me!]

Camren: [I promise!]

Katie: [... I’ll see you soon.]

Katie: [Let’s go, Ms. Han.]

Ms. Han: [Alright sounds good.]

Camren: “…”

Millie & Sarah: “...”

Camren: (... W-w-w-w-w-waitaminute? IT’S JUST ME AND THEM NOW?!?!?)

Millie: “Psst”

Sarah: "?"

Millie: “Hey sis, wanna just kill ‘er now?”

Sarah: “Hm… Should we?”

Camren: “WHA-”

Millie: “AHAHA! Look at your face! Don’t wo- WOAH! Don’t worry, I’m just kidding, so put the gun down.”

Camren: “...”

Sarah: “...”

Millie: “Ha… what now? Are we just supposed to stay here the whole time? For how long?”

Sarah: “Until the freak comes back, I guess? Or till she wakes up.”

Millie: “... Hey, Carmen was it?”

Camren: “I-it’s Camren, actually.”

Millie: “Whatever, say… Do you have any experience?”

Camren: “Wha- What kind of experience?”

Millie: “Sex?”

Camren: “WH-”

Millie: “AHAHAHAHA! SERIOUSLY! YOU’RE SO-”

Sarah: “You see, we’ve been lacking some action in a while. What do you say?~”

Camren: “A-a-a-a-a-a-”

Sarah: “Ptffff”

Millie: “AHAHAHAHA!”

Sarah: “Seriously… how gullible are you kid…”

Camren: “W-w-w-what are you talking… about…”

Millie: “No way would we actually want to do anything! Wake up man!”

Camren: “S-so you’re not serious…”

Sarah: “No but actually, do you have any experience?”

Camren: “About… sex?”

Sarah: “No… with the gun…”

Camren: “O-oh…”

Sarah: “You were quick to point it at us, and I can tell you’ve never shot one before, are you really just going with whatever he told you?”

Camren: “W-Well! I have to make sure you guys don’t do anything to Eva!”

Sarah: “Ooouuu~ Aren’t you brave!”

Millie: “Even if we did, do you really think you can do anything to us?”

Camren: “...”

Sarah: “Seriously… men are so stupid. In any case, we won’t. So don’t worry.”

Camren: “Right…”

Millie: “...”

Camren: “...”

Sarah: “I can tell you still don’t trust us.”

Camren: “How can I…"

Millie: “Just consider the fact that he left you with us, that should be enough.”

Camren: "..."

Millie: “Hm- aaaaaaanyways~ I’m going out for a bit, need air.”

Sarah: “Are you sure you’re alright to move Millie?”

Millie: “Yeah, nothing hurts anymore, so that should be good, right?”

Sarah: “Well, come back if you do.”

Millie: “Will do~”
