Tsumomo slipped through the few corridors with a simple fan colored with silver lines. Expecting to find whoever touch its illusion in the entry hall, since her trap created an energy bond. However, she did not felt an movement. whoever entered was waiting at the lobby patiently, without even bothering with the illusion that just disappeared.
The dancer removed the energy bond and answered the person as she was the very recepcionist herself and had to leave for a brief moment. Shia was following her steps and showed up too, but she just stood and observed the scene.
- Hello, sir! I am sorry for your waiting. How may I help you? - The geisha said.
- Oh. Hello! Someisa definitely has nice eyes for her supporters. - The men was tall and used a blue pointy hat.
- How flattering are your words! - Tsumomo blushed lightly. - What kind of knowledge are you seeking in this academy? - Tsumomo covered her face with the kimono sleeve.
- I would like to know this place. And maybe, if possible, the head director. - He used formal vests which made no sense with his hat. It's colors were pale red.
Tsumomo signaled with her other hand, in such way that only Shia could notice, for her to walk around the academy.
- Unfortunately I cannot help you, sir. She is not around right now. - She said, while lowering her hand.
Meanwhile, someone entered the library dressing a lavender student uniform. It was a woman who picked up a book and started to walk around the library. She observed the young one that was looking curiously to the fan that was over the table. She closed the book and went to sit around that girl, taking the fan with her right hand.
Gyff was looking for a place to eat a little bit and stopped in one of the tea houses. There was a party there, but he was not very excited to stay. He simply entered the toilet to relief his stress and looked again to the bottle he was carrying. The bottle cork was missing. He left the flask over the metal surface expecting that something would sip over there, but nothing happened. So he decided to look directly inside the bottle, which was, as expected, empty.
"Bad day. Bad day. Bad day." - He thought. All that effort to grab that inside that maze was gone. Now he has to explain what happened to Cowboy, who was at the Taex district, in another point of the city. The problem is that he did not know what happened. Like he said himself when he arrived at Cowboy's tavern. Gyff sat in on the the chairs next to the bar.
- What's up, Gyff? How did it went? - Cowboy asked.
- See it for yourself. - Gyff handed the bottle. Cowboy looked it for a while and saw it was empty.
- How!? What happened?
- Someisa.
- And what is her role in this mess?
- She almost captured me, Cowboy.
- But you are here, right!?
- Man, something unexpected happened. A lot of flames and smoke. I used this mess to escape, but when I looked back...
- It was already open.
- Yes.
They both stood in silence for a while.
- Do you know what that bottle had? - Cowboy asked.
- I have no idea. I did not opened it before.
- That sucks, man.
More silence.
- Would you like some Whisky? - The bar owner offered.
- I still prefer your beer.
It was not Gyff's first flaw. Getting dangerous stuff has a price, and thanks to that, he was not receiving payment.
