Shit. It was the exact same as his own right down to the fucking second. What are the odds that it’s just a huge coincidence that both systems would have a timer with the exact same countdown? Yeah, that’s an impossible coincidence. It was obvious that she would be going to the mission with him as well. Han didn’t know how to feel about that, Fey wasn’t someone he was ever close to and he didn’t like how she was always looking at him like food she wanted to eat since that fight with Alcatraz. It was supposed to be something like newfound love from her, but it was just unnerving.
Fey saw Han looking at her and she blushed while twirling her hair around her hand. What was he looking at her for? Did he want to say something to her? I hope I look alright today. I even put on a little makeup! There’s no way he won’t notice!
Han blinked at her reaction before he sighed and turned to leave. Fey’s mouth fell open in shock and she grew depressed as Ragnar began to laugh loudly at her! This sister of his was going all out, wasn’t she!? It’s like watching a trainwreck in slow motion whenever she tried things like this!
Fey glared at Ragnar for a moment before turning back to where Han left to. What in the world happened!? Did he not notice, or did he just ignore it? Fey didn’t know which one would hurt worse! She just wanted a chance to talk to him! How hard was it for the universe to give her one chance! And now she’s even going on this silly mission and so she won’t have time to see him. Fey groaned and plopped her head on Poloma’s shoulder beside her.
Poloma could see the distress that was going through the girl’s mind and so she smiled while petting Fey’s head.
“It’s alright little dragon, maybe he’ll look towards you again next time, and then you can talk to him”
Ragnar snorted and then said something about Fey being a coward before he yelped as Fey slammed her feet into his shin under the table with a glare. The entire interaction quickly stopped once someone came out with some plates of food for them. Fey thought it would be Han, but she noticed that she could hear the person’s footsteps. She never hears Han’s footsteps, so it had to be someone else.
Kim gave the table a smile while dropping their food down. She knew that these were Han’s subordinates, so she tried to make sure they weren’t nervous. When she was back on Earth, her subordinates would always get nervous when they were having a meal with her.
But Kim didn’t put into account the differences between Earth and the Temple! These motherfuckers don’t know the meaning of uncomfortable! Fey glared at Kim and Kim released a low yelp! What the hell did she do!? Why is this girl glaring at her!?
Poloma smacked Fey on the back of the head and Fey’s head shot forward sharply. Poloma then shook her head while apologizing to Kim. The reason why Fey did what she did was obvious. Kim thought she hid it well enough, but this was a world filled with superpowered people, the limp in her steps was so obvious it might have well been a big sign on top of her head that said ‘I fucked last night! And it was damn good too!’.
Fey folded her hands and pouted. She wasn’t jealous at all! She just let her emotions get the better of her for a moment! Ragnar if you don’t stop giving me that stupid smile then I’ll send a lightning bolt into your ass!
“Uhm… I hope you enjoy your meal. Han was busy at the back with another order so he couldn’t come himself”
Poloma smiled and thanked Kim. A voice from behind them called on Kim and they saw Lily waving her over from the other table. Fey felt her brow twitch! Lily wasn’t even trying to hide the limp!
“Sis you’re going to turn your hair white at this rate. Just talk to him if you want to. You’re an adult and there should be more than enough time to talk before you have to go”
“Shut it, Ragnar. You expect me to just walk up to him and say ‘Hi, Han, do you want to marry me?’ Are you insane?”
“I’m sorry, do I want to marry who?”
The last person that spoke was Han! Fey felt her blood freeze in her veins and Ragnar grew a wide-eyed expression! Nobody even noticed Han coming from behind Fey! How the hell is he so silent!
Fey wanted to die! No, she wanted to go into the ground and be buried forever. I can’t believe he heard what I said! How can I even show him my face now!? Fey grabbed onto her staff and just kept looking away from Han with her mouth shut. She wouldn’t do anything to make her image worse in their leader’s eyes!
Han waited for a while for someone to say something, but after some time he grew bored and dropped the issue. He told them that they forgot to grab some sauce for the chicken and so he brought it for them himself. Once he dropped it and began walking away Fey sighed and thunked her head on the table. Poloma gently patted her head in consolation.
“Uh.. cheer up sis. At least you proposed. – Ow!! Stop kicking me!”
……
Later that day, Han finally told his girls that he would be going away to bring someone from another world. The reactions were as expected. They didn’t want him to just leave like that, but it wasn’t like he had a choice. Han was going to get pulled into that other world whether he liked it or not. Their opinion on the matter didn’t matter.
[Departure time – 00:05:00]
Han stayed upstairs in his room so that he could leave. It felt nostalgic for him to be in this position again and he wondered if it was something that would occur more than once. Well, it depends on the system, so Han didn’t have much of an idea about it. Even Yuuma said that she didn’t know the sort of pattern they use to choose who would go or not. It was more random than Han thought it would be.
[Departure time – 00:00:40]
Well, fuck it. I guess I’ll figure it out as I go ahead.
[Departure time – 00:00:00]
[Host will now be transported]
Han closed his eyes and disappeared.
…..
When Han opened his eyes, he couldn’t believe what he saw right in front of him. He was in the void again! That same void that he usually went to whenever he was going to the future! Or wait, was it the same one? It was possible that it was just another void.
“Fufufu~ And here I thought I would be the one to surprise you, instead you just keep surprising me, Han”
Han scoffed. This is definitely the same void. He would recognize that stupid sexy voice anywhere. He turned around and came face to face with that vixen once again, Dorea. She was wearing a simple outfit like always. The lab coat over her jeans and shirt and she had a small smile on her face while looking at him. It made Han realize that she really was glad to have him here again. With how their last meeting went, Han didn’t think she would be so happy. Didn’t he threaten her before?
“I can’t read your mind anymore, but I can easily see the confusion on your face. Do you really think that something like that is enough to make me hate you? If anything, I think it just made me want to know more about you. But I can’t believe that you are already going on recruiting missions, you’re really one of a kind -”
Han cut her off before she could continue. He wasn’t going to let them try to fool him.
“Invasions. Call this exactly what it is. It is an invasion of another world and a forceful extraction of someone who doesn’t even know anything about us. I don’t know why you insist on calling it recruitment when it is anything but that”.
