[ACADEMY DAYS]
(SCENE)
Anya starts life at her new academy and attempts to figure out how to spy on Glare without getting caught.
(SCENE)
After many days of struggling to find opportunities to get closer to Glarr naturally, the person who had given Anya the mission of spying on Glare finally decided to step in and offer her some help.
Anya got information on Glare from before he was in the academy; the information given became very shallow after the recorded date of his aptitude examination.
Anya learned much from the information she was given as help, along with the magic item that she could use to scramble her thoughts.
(SCENE)
Halfway through the end of the semester, Anya decided to finally try and make her move, and begin properly gathering Intel on Glare.
Anya chose to try to show romantic interest in Glare as she knew from the information she was given that his engagement was broken off after he awakened his amplitude, due to various reasons, so the best means of getting closer to him would be trying to be a sincere love interest of his.
Anya thought it would be the best method, as the tool she got from the person who forcefully recruited her could project different thoughts, and she could use it to manipulate how Glare perceives her.
(SCENE)
Anya begins to subtly execute her plan.
Anya begins to eagerly watch Glare in the background, and projects thoughts of admiration towards him using the device she was given.
As the day goes by, Anya notices that Glare begins to look in her direction whenever she starts looking in his direction.
Anya thinks that Glare is trying to find out who's constantly staring at him, little by little.
After a few days of constantly monitoring Glare, with the identity of someone who just likes him.
Anya eventually gets approached by Glare during one of her breaks.
~{DIALOGUE}~
Glare appears out of what seems like nowhere in front of Anya and starts asking her questions, as if she were a criminal.
Glare Aldo: "Hey, you."
Anya looks back in surprise and starts to act flustered.
Anya Aswood: "Ye- yes. " *She leans her head down slightly*
Anyas' Real Thoughts: "Ugh, what is he doing here? I know I was being obvious with the fact I was observing him, but why would he suddenly come looking for me if I haven't shown any malicious intent towards him?"
Anyas' Projected Thoughts: "Wh- what is Glare doing here? Co- could it be a confession? No, I shouldn't get ahead of myself." *Internal Grin*
Glare reads her thoughts and starts to blush.
Glares' Inner Monologue: "Does she actually like me? I can't seem to get a proper read on her. She acts so strange from afar, and yet keeps showering me with admiration, though only in her thoughts."
Glare Aldo: "Anya, I need you to do something for me."
Anyas' Real Thoughts: "What the hell does he need me to do for him?"
Anyas' Projected Thoughts: "I wonder what he wants me to do for him." *Excited*
Anya Aswood: "What do you need me to do?" *Asks excitedly*
Glares' Inner Monologue: "She's surprisingly willing to help. Might be a good way to test if what I'm hearing from her thoughts are sincere or if she's just trying to deceive me."
Glare Aldo: "I need your help finding someone."
Anya Aswood: "Who do you need help finding?"
Glare Aldo: "It's just an acquaintance of mine."
Glares' Inner Monologue: "I'll get her to come with me, and faked getting attacked, if she doesn't help me and tries to join them, i'll have her killed and if she chooses to run off and not get help or come back later, i'll just ignore possible advances from her, and shut her out of my business."
Anyas' Real Thoughts: "Asking me to help him find someone he's acquainted with is a little suspect, but I'll go along with it. I might gather some valuable intel from helping him, or even possibly get close to him, which would make my life a whole lot easier."
Anyas' Projected Thoughts: "I wonder who he needs my help to find, maybe it's one of his friends. I hope we can actually find them today."
Anya Aswood: "I'll help. Where do you want us to start searching first?"
(SCENE)
Glare tells Anya that they can start searching by the field, since he had searched around most of the academy before finding her where she was.
Anya plays along and tells Glare that they should probably head out, so they can find his acquaintance faster.
Glare agrees with Anya and asks if they can leave and go to the field. Anya runs ahead of Glare and holds out her hand while smiling, and tells Glare to hurry up.
Anya and Glare eventually make it to the field, and call out Glares' aquientences name. After some time, they hearad response back; however, when they went in the direction of the response, they saw Glares' friend fighting someone.
Glare immediately rushes in and tries to stop it; however, he ends up getting pinned on the floor in front of Anya.
Glares carefully looks at Anya to see what she'll do, and expected her to run away or take the opportunity to get blackmail on him if the opportunity was given; however, he didn't expect what was going to happen next.
Anya looks at Glare at the floor, and notices he isn't really injured, so quickly thinks that it's probably a test, and decides to help Glare.
Anya throws a punch at the person who had Glare pinned on the floor, and they completely lose consciousness.
Anyas' Inner Monologue: "What, the fuck."
Glares' Inner Monologue: *Scared* "Wh- what was that? Why is she so strong?"
Everyone stares at Anya in amazement as her punch is outrageously strong.
(SCENE)
Months pass, and Anya successfully get closer to Glare and gathers intel on him.
Eventually, the person who recruited Anya goes back to the academy to catch up on how well Anya is doing at her mission.
Anya tells them all thats happened in the past months, and whats up with the Aldo family.
[TIME SKIP]
Years after finishing academy life, Anya finally finished her mission and was given a cure, but she wasn't one hundred percent back to normal, so she decided to wander around and become an adventurer.
Anya made companions along the way, but eventually ended up being captured by the Aldo family and forced into a contract with them.
After being forced into a contract, Anya couldn't do as she pleased anymore and had to use her abilities to abduct people out of dungeons so they could be experimented on.
Anya lives a life of kidnapping people from dungeons and getting stronger over the course of many months, until one day, she captures someone who could break free of her pocket dimension.
(SCENE)
Anya went to a dungeon near the demi-human plains to get some stragglers from the nearby village or dungeon explorers.
Eventually, she enters a dungeon with some others who were forcefully taken to enter contracts with the Aldo family.
Anya enters a dungeon with those people and finds someone wandering on one of the lower, early floors of the dungeon.
Anya thinks nothing of them and decides to place them in her pocket dimension.
Anya noticed something that distracted her for a second, and she looked away from the person for a second, and noticed that they had gone somewhere else when she looked away for that second.
Anya continued walking through the dungeon in search of that person for a while, until she noticed that she was being watched, and immediately acted. Anya captured the person in her pocket dimension and continued walking through the dungeon seeking out more victims. Before long, as she searched and regrouped with her team, she noticed that she was leaking a lot of mana and began getting more and more fatigued.
Anyas' teammates noticed and tried giving her mana potions so she could recover, then quickly left her, so they could do their own things; however, she just kept getting worse and worse until she eventually fainted.
(SCENE)
James appears in a flash of light as Anya faints, and questions himself on weather his seen her before or not.
Anya's teammates notice a loud noise coming from where Anya was, and go to her to see if something happened, but to their surprise, someone new came out of nowhere, and Anya was lying unconscious on the floor.
Anyas' teammates try to take on the attack stances in case they need to fight the person who was in front of them.
One of Anya's teammates has a slight remembrance of who the person might be and subtly says 'James' under their breath.
James looks up after staring at Anya for a while and notices that there are a few people around him. Among those in the group, none really looked familiar to him, until his gaze fell on someone he saw, whom he once called a comrade and friend.
