....
"So. I'm planning to go out this midnight and return after dawn, just only to find out what's happening outside, and you of course, guard first if there is any one coming to get us and finally you can follow me"
"You dim-witted, I don't agree with your f*c* plan, so here's the plan.."
"Urgh what?--"
"Listen here, I'm the one who's going to look outside, while you, stay guard. First, soldiers outside might be a warning, what I'm going to do is to check them out first, as giving me a signal, what you should do without being caught is--"
The door opens.
Both were looking at the person who opened the cabinet door.
"Uhm?"
"Ises what the hell are you doing here!?" ; Sierinn whispers.
"I'm supposed to be the one who's asking the two of you?"
"You found something to hide in but didn't you realized all of us here in this house only use one cabinet??"
"You didn't realized it either and followed me the way here..?"
"Are you both sharing a secret or OH! ARE YOU BOTH TRYING SOMETHING SPIC--"
Sierinn shuts Ises's mouth with his hands, reaching him.
"Shut up Ises, get out Maxx and help me out here"
"Damn"
Maxx went down the cabinet and helped Sierinn out.
"So what now?"
; Asked Ises.
"What now?"
; Sierinn asked back.
"Okay, I don't want any fight here, Ises you can join us"
"Hey wait, if you're going to let Ises join, do it the both of you"
"But didn't you say you wanted Lean's books?"
"I can borrow whenever I want, besides, I didn't want to come with you since first, I just only want the books"
"Fine.."
"Dealing with something?"
The three of them were startled seeing Lean in front of Sierinn and asked suddenly.
"Uhm, ahh"
; Maxx thinking about a reason to answer Lean.
"It's nothing, we're dealing if Maxx don't cook for us this dinner he'd do as I and Ises say, but if he do, he'd let us borrow the books you gave"
"Ugh? I-I didn't gave any books to Maxx?"
"Wha-what!!!"
Sierinn looked at Maxx knowing that he doesn't have any books of Lean.
"Sorry.. at least I know how to do business here.."
Smiles.
Sierinn is coming to hit Maxx because of letting him come with Maxx.
"Hey.."
"Heyyy! Sierinn I just wanted you to help me since you know what I'm talking about!"
Halt.
"I am. not. coming. with. you. outside. this. house. ever!"
"Right, the universe now heard it"
"It doesn't matter, its nonsense anyway"
"Going out?"
; Lean asked, standing beside the door with crossed arms and legs.
"No, actually."
Because of tricking him, Sierinn turned his back to Maxx and walked out into the room. Being a concern friend, Lean approached Maxx who's looking upset.
"Maxx, what was that about?"
; Asked Ises beside Maxx.
"Oh. sorry you shouldn't be involved here"
"No, it's fine, don't be upset.. you know Sierinn very well"
"Yeah, I know him very well but still bothered to mess with him"
"I see, so what's that all about? if I'm saying all, I mean ALL"
"I wanted to go outside and find out what's happening"
"Do you wanna know what's happening?"
"Yeah, is it that bad that I wanted to find out somehow what's happening behind this roof?"
"No. But it's dangerous. Do you think it'll be fine for the both of you to go outside not knowing what's what may occur?"
"I mean, we're going to be careful though, and going outside without cautions will be a stupid decision"
"Precisely"
As they talk, Sierinn was standing beside the door outside, quiet and seems to be listening at the inside.
Ises, standing beside them couldn't help by just listening, so he joined their conversation as he asked some of his whereabouts.
"So what do you really mean about finding out what's behind this roofs?"
"I--Ises, I never wanted to be useless and all, I wanted to help somehow--"
"Don't you think his family would be glad if you bring him outside without considering warnings?
; Interrupted the answer by Lean.
"No. I'm not saying that I don't consider warnings, there's no alert warnings stated!?"
"There is, level 3 nitros wandering outside and we're all lack of knowledge about them, if so.. we don't know where they hide"
"Are you saying that because I don't have family, therefore I'm worthless?"
"No. I'm just saying is that--"
"I understand Lean. You don't have to elaborate your argument, it doesn't matter and it doesn't make any sense. To make it clear, I am fully aware that Sierinn still have his family and I don't want to bring any danger for him!"
Anger, has brought into Maxx's soul. Misunderstanding points of Lean made him walked out the room.
"Maxx.."
; Whispered Sierinn, looking at him while walking away.
As soon as Maxx left the room, Lean and Ises went out and stopped seeing Sierinn standing beside.
"It's fine, I'll talk to him"
; Sierinn, looking down.
"It's never fine. He wanted something that both of you can put into danger, and maybe he misunderstood what I was implying"
; Lean talked back.
"Maybe he was carried away of what happened back there that he doesn't want to experience it or ever happen again.."
; Ises, standing beside Lean.
Sigh..
"We have to talk to him"
Axis, out of the sudden appeared at front of them, as he heard what they were talking about.
"Uhm?"
"Axis?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
"Ugh.."
"Is there something that you don't wanna talk about while I'm here? I'll just leave then.."
"No, wait, why you're here?"
"Oh, I-ugh.. scratch I just wonder what happened to Maxx, he walked away stomping so I wonder what happened to him, and I guess there's something that has to do with the three of you?"
"Well.."
"Well, yes."
"Lean?"
"We live in one roof, so we share secrets"
"Sorry? but Sierinn did you just mean not to share the problem with me?"
"No, I called Lean because I think that'd be sensitive to just talk about"
"I don't mind.."
"I'm glad"
As Sierinn said his words, he bowed down, upset. Lean and Ises patted his back and continued to walk pass, they started walking.. Axis came to follow the two while Sierinn stayed a bit there outside the room standing.
Maxx was sitting outside the house, on the floor near door since they cannot go anywhere, he seems disappointed of what he heard back then. Seeing him alone staring at the empty roads of Cratter Spring, quiet, as the clouds starts to form in darkness, moon being covered.. Lean approached Maxx slowly as he was there to comfort the friend.
"Maxx.."
Didn't respond.. Lean started to stand beside Maxx who was sitting on the floor.
"I'm sorry if you get it the wrong way.. I didn't mean anything"
"Its fine actually.. if you haven't told me anything like that I wouldn't thought about what will Shwif's family would think once hurt, even Ises.. I invited him to join us, I'm not even thinking"
"I truly understand.. but you don't have to be upset, they're not mad at you, not even me"
"You have to be.. I get it, there's nothing more than what I've expected and I should be the one that's apologizing"
"I guess you would now like to head back inside?"
"Sure.."
Lean managed to let Maxx head back inside and talked to them as supposed to.
Everyone inside turned heads to Lean and Maxx entering the house, sitting on the floor, doing nothing.
"Everyone here's to talk"
; Lean, standing beside Maxx talking to all of them.
"I wanted to apologize"
"Why?"
; Asked Sierinn.
"I was very careless when thinking, uh.. no, I'm not even thinking, you're right Sierinn"
"Hey, I'm not implying anything"
"But it's true, and I guess I just have to accept it whether you all say that I don't have to think that way"
"Maxx. We understand what you've gone through, after all we don't want you to think that you're the same as your past, we're here to help you, and it doesn't mean anything about thinking that your below among us"
; Axis, suddenly spoke.
"And I'm sorry if I handle it the wrong way"
"There is no right or wrong way.
Lean, looked at Maxx.
..It is your decision of how you handle things that you think you can manage, we don't have anything to do about that but to support of how you interact through points.."
Ises spoke as he suggest.
"If you really wanted to work with your plan, you should've talked to us, it's a matter of fact that we can agree about, if it is necessary or we have to alter the plan.. we should all be helping each other here considering as one, right?"
"You're right. I'm sorry yet again"
"You don't have to keep apologizing. Shall we discuss it?"
; Answered Ises.
They all gathered in one area to discuss the matter about sneaking out, some agreed and some are not, everyone suggested their plans and choose who's plan is going to follow, they analyzed every detail careful and not to mess up with the operation they were making.. everyone suggested again and again, analyze it all over again because non of them gives a better plan in which they haven't figured out not to get caught. Soon as they continue, finally one of them was being agreed because his plan was almost near the goal.
"Maxx!!"
; Shouted Ises with excitement.
"Maxx!! I think you should stop suggesting by now because we can all agree to Axis, aren't we?"
"Oh yeah! I'm sorry, I was just too excited about this"
So Axis got his whole members to his plan.
"That's how we do it."
An end of conversation for them to rest about, so they gradually confirmed that the 3rd day of this week, without further announcements, they will continue the plan which they call..
: Vgaíno éxo sta kryfá Operationes.
"That's extravagant.."
; Sierrinn commented.
They call it a day and rest after the discussion.
