Calio: Ray! Remember, yourself!
Raymond:...
Calio: Ray, it's me Calio... You remember me right?
Raymond: haha...
[Raymond, stop his attack and look at Calio]
Calio: Yeah, it's me Ca-
[Suddenly an ice shard penetrated his chest]
Calio: Lio...
[Raymond vanish into thin air]
Raymond: He... He... Hahahahaha!
_______________________________________________
Calio: Aaaaaaaaaaaa!
[Calio woke up from the nightmare screaming]
Calio: What was that...
[Then someone come running to the door, then the door slam open]
Dynamite: What happen!
Calio: Huh, Frog, Is that you?
Dynamite: Yea, Is everything good man?
Calio: Yea... I just have some nightmare...
Dynamite: *sigh* I see... Dude, if anything happens to you, Syah's going to kill me
Calio: ...
Dynamite: Don't scare me like that
Calio: Umm... Where's Syah?
Dynamite: Hmm, he when out with Raymond
Calio: I see
[Calio stand up from the bed, and put on his clothes]
Dynamite: Where you going?
Calio: Outside
Dynamite: Becareful
[Calio walks outside]
[While he's walking, his mind is still riddled with the question of what was the nightmare supposed to be. He knows that there are still fragments of Jestrings strings around Raymond... But why didn't he act now? That dream is from the time he and Raymond were sparing, but nothing happens to like the dream describe]
[Then he bum onto someone]
Calio: Oh, sorry I was spacing out...
???: Nah, it's ok...
[Calio look at who he's bummed onto]
Calio: Liam?
Liam?: I'm sorry, who are you?
Calio: You're, Liam right? It's me Calio
Liam: I'm very sorry, sir I never know anyone name Calio
Calio: (Wait... This is not my dimension) No neverminded... I-it's my mistake, I thought you were my friend his name is Liam
Liam: It's a coincidence that my name happened to be Liam too
Calio: Hehehe... Yea, I'm very sorry for being rude just now, see ya
Liam: It's ok, people make mistake all the time
[Calio walk away from him]
Calio: (I need to get used to this world)
[Meanwhile, after Calio walk away from Liam]
*Phone ring*
Liam: How many time I told you don't call me right-... Uck!, Argh!!
[Liam body began to deform]
[Calio turn around to look back at Liam, he disappear]
Calio: Uh, he's already gone... Wait the minutes how old is he?! Damn, this dimension is a mess...
[After a long walks Calio still can't solve what his dream try to tell him. He gave up, but his lone walk was not meaningless. In his walk, he stumbles across his old house which is still intact but abandoned]
Calio: (Right... In this dimension, I didn't become the beacon of war. Well, I'm nothing wrong right? I'm just going to breaking into my own house...)
[Without any hesitant he walks into the abandoned house. Surprisingly, nothing was broken, as in someone just left the house]
Calio: Hel-
[Then he quickly close his mouths]
Calio: (It's probably a bad idea to make noises)
[Calio continue ravaging around the house, hoping to find some clue about his other-self. Lucky for him, he found something useful]
[He when to the living room which near the front door, but not in the plain view of the front door. Near it's a stair going up and a dining room]
[He found a diary the only thing that full of dust]
Calio: This place...
[A bitter memory glance through Calio's mind. The time a new kindred of fire was born "The Warflame"]
[Calio pick up the diary and blows the dust off it. The book itself looks like it about to turn to dust so he opens the book slowly, but he was interrupted by the front door slamming open... Someone is here]
[While the book still in his hand he when upstairs and hide between the grid so he can peek at what happen]
[A group of four walks in, one of them wearing a formal outfit and the other guy is wearing a casual looking shirt, the other one is unrecognizable.
Dapper Man: So this is the house?
Cheerful Man: *whistle* This house looks amazing
Unrecognizable Woman: ...
[Then, Calio almost choke himself when the last person walk in]
Calio: (I-I-It's Raymond!!)
Dapper Man: Hm? Did you guy hear anything?
[Calio quickly holds his mouths]
Cheerful Man: It's probably nothing... Why you so cautions today EL?
Dapper Man: How many I tell you, don't call me EL that's not my name!!
Cheerful Man: Well, what are your name then?
Dapper Man: Find it yourself...
Unrecognizable Woman: It was a mistake taking you two here... Don't you think the same way Dai?
Raymond: ...
Unrecognizable Woman: Oh wait I forget... That's not your real name
Cheerful Man: What's it again, Ice Ray?
Dapper Man: It's Raymond, you idiots
Cheerful Man: I know that...
Unrecognizable Woman: Listen here Ray, Dai or whatever your name is... I only doing this because the boss told me to, the only thing that protecting you from your inevitable death is him... So be grateful
Raymond: ...
Dapper Man: It's no use to talk with an empty vessel ████
Calio: (What... Did he just say??)
Unrecognizable Woman: You idiot!
Dapper Man: My mistake... My tongue slips for a second...
Unrecognizable Woman: Ceh, nothing to worry about... He already gave me the spell before we go out... Hah~ he always thinks about me
Cheerful Man: Sure...
Dapper Man: Apart from that, what we doing in this junkyard?
Calio: (Junkyard?! this is my house you son of-)
*Clank*
[A sound of book fall from upstairs]
Calio: (Oh no, the diary!)
[They quickly look in the direction where the sound come from]
Unrecognizable Woman: EL, PUP move
{EL and PUP is a codename}
Dapper Man: *sigh*
Cheerful Man: Got it
[They slowly walk to the living rooms, Calio try so hard to hold his breaths so they can't hear him from upstairs]
Unrecognizable Woman: Be careful I detect something... Ice move-in go check what was that...
[Raymond walks to the diary he picks it up, then he glances at Calio directly]
[Calio heartbeat when crazy]
[Everything when silence for a while, for Calio it feels like the time has been stopped]
[Then he smiles at Calio, a warm innocent smile, Calio feel relief]
[Suddenly a vision appear, It's him getting stabbed by Raymond from behind. He instantly moves out of his hiding spot and exposed himself]
[Raymond already behind him ready to stab him with a defective smile on his face]
Cheerful Man: *whistle* His bloodlust still scare me
Unrecognizable Woman: Kid, you think you can hide there forever? I saw you from the start... Do it, Ice I don't like it when someone is peeping
[Raymond walks slowly toward him... Calio desperately try to run away from him]
Calio: Ignis!!
[But nothing happen...]
Calio: Huh? What happens where's my power?!
Cheerful Man: "Neutral: Negative effect" *phew* That was close
[Calio shaking in fear knowing there's nothing can protect him]
Unrecognizable Woman: Ice, stop!
[Raymond stop walking...]
Unrecognizable Woman: An Elementalist huh? what a rare sights
Dapper Man: Don't tell me...
Unrecognizable Woman: Shut it, EL. Listen here kid, come with us and we will not kill you
[Calio too focus on Ray that he didn't hear what she said]
Calio: Ray! Remember, yourself!
Cheerful Man: Ohhh, Look like he already loose
Unrecognizable Woman: Kid... You really messing with me...
Calio: Ray, it's me Calio... You remember me right?
Dapper Man: Don't blame him he's a child, he already been devoured by fear
Unrecognizable Woman: I don't care if he a child or not... I'm still going to kill him, Do it, Ice finish him
Raymond: ...
[He doesn't move]
Unrecognizable Woman: Grrr... Move you stupid puppet!!
Cheerful Man: Look like she's also losing it
Unrecognizable Woman: Do I have to do everything by myself... All of you are useless
Dapper Man: Here we go...
Unrecognizable Woman: "Bloody Mary-Bloody Mary stared down upon this mannequin and may it move again"
[Raymond started to move in an impossible way cracking all his bone]
Raymond: Arghhh!!
[Raymond his scream echo through the room, then he stop moving...]
Calio: Ray-
[An ice shard penetrated his back]
Unrecognizable Woman: Heh...
Dapper man: You look worn off... Was it worth?
Unrecognizable Woman: Shut up... *Huff*
[While it happens a tear falling from Raymond's face...]
*Crash*
[A car suddenly busted through the wall of the house]
Syah: Dyna! Pick up the book!
Dynamite: I'm going, I'm going!
[Syah look at Calio]
Syah: I'm not losing you again...
