Chapter 3 - Chasing Yourself in a Thousand Fleeting Dreams

AAA-*yawns* It's finally time to leave Tlasa for our next scouting adventure.

Lyria- *speaks sarcastically* You're up now? Doesn't it seems a bit too early ..?

AAA- *yawns* Anyways it's time to get Bolt his scouting license, in my opinion he could be a very useful ally for us.

Lyria- Yea I'm with you on that one....he does have a lot of cosmic potential for what the world has become.

AAA- Speaking of... where is Bolt?

Lyria- I don't know but don't worry he hasn't escaped or anything, his luggage is still here and I think he went outside for a stroll or something.

Meanwhile outside the camp

Cecilia- There you have it Mr.Bolt, you're officially a scout of the former duo of AAA and Lyria now supposedly your partners. So that makes you a trio then.

Bolt- Hehe, I might just be a nuisance to them since I don't have any combat capabilities but let's see what's ahead for us

Lyria and AAA hearing Bolt's voice outside head out to see what's happening

Bolt- Oh hey you two, I just got my scouting license seems pretty simple eh, I just had to fill up this 2 page-form and my license is ready.

Normally you would take around a week to provide you a license or even a month if the kind of license you would need is of higher authority or organisation but things have changed a bit huh!

AAA -What??! You got your license without even doing the test? Ms. Cecilia what's going on here???

Cecilia- No dear, it's just that he already showed me his prowess.

Lyria- ...And what exactly is that?

Cecilia- He is able to use Burst as of now but only as far as it can reach out as an Echo, you both will have to be the main fighters in the scouting expeditions but don't understand any Echo Bursters, they are very rare and even if they exist they don't live much long so this might be just more than a special case

AAA- Hold up!? You can use Burst Bolt? Seems like the seeds of the universe has taken a liking to you. Althought you may not be physically capable, keep improving and it could come in clutch.

Lyria- Or...you could become a threat for the 2 of us...but don't worry just being able to use Burst won't be able to even get you past the 0.1st Zone of Lapsa.

Bolt- I don't want to get in a fight with the two of you.....you two who have supposedly woken me up from a deep coma....but Lapsa did you say?

Cecilia- Seems like we've had enough chatter so I'll leave the three of you be and you three can decide wherever you want to go to scout, or you could discuss with me about your desired destination.

AAA- We're gonna have to discuss about this but we'll inform you before we leave, Ms. Cecilia.

Cecilia- Alright I'll leave your trio be- may the universe keep extending for us scouts.

As Cecilia leaves you three decide to catch upon quickly with each other to discuss the area you want to scout.

Bolt- Ok listen, about all that Burst, I don't know what that means but what I do know is we need to get close to CF Corp and find out the real deal because I'm sure....I have a touch with them before I woke up again.

AAA- Right, which is why we both have already planned out which place we're gonna scout first and that place is....-

Lyria- Echelon, the land of skyscrapers.

AAA- That's right, according to intel we came across from the UGG The Multibillionaire CEO from CF Corp is visiting Echelon.

As the most influential person in the entire universe the fate of Echelon might well be in his hands and not even the overseer of Echelon.

Lyria- What we could do...is trust the news from the UGG, and head to Echelon by evening.

Oh right, Bolt you seem very confused as to what's happening here so..ask away.

Bolt- So Daytime and Nighttime are fixed for the entire universe?

AAA- Well yes but no, for the farther end of the universe it's different as to what it is for the scouts of Tsala and even for Echelon.

Considering the constant time flow in places such as the Vanguard Sector, time is complicated....even I wish to understand the truth behind what lead to this, as I believe in history and I believe that the universe was never like this to begin with.

Lyria- You could be right- again but let's put it this way, if something's connected to Bolt who's said to be from 3 Millenia and CF Corp's CEO, then it's definitely worth visiting Echelon, where he's said to head at.

Bolt- Precisely... I might have the same ambition as AAA but I just hope in any worst case scenario the root cause for this universe isn't me.

Lyria- Suspecting yourself won't get you anywhere until we find out the actual root cause....which we hope isn't....you.

AAA- Well then I will inform Cecilia who is incharge of our team by the way Bolt, so please be respectful because she could even cancel our scout expededitons...so your words at your risk.

Bolt- Yea yea it isn't even like I was rude with her at all so it should be fine right haha...

Lyria- You and AAA know how to make a perfectly normal conversation and awkward one.

And the chance that I am your heir Bolt, makes me doubt my own personality.

The previous night when AAA woke Lyria up to chat

Lyria- So *yawn* what is it? It better be *yawn* worth my goddamn time.

AAA- Bolt has shown hints of using Burst I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up dead tomorrow...

Lyria- No, he would've died on spot if he had used Burst there's no way he used it and survived*yawns*

AAA- Trust me he could be the best companion we need or the worst foe with that capability....

Lyria- Ah I hate this complicated crap... I wish things were the way it was before this knock off big bang.

AAA- Well situations change and since we're all able to wield this power and stay alive without deterioration....that makes us special right? Then so is Bolt.

Lyria- If that's all you wanted to say *yawn* then cut the crap and sleep....wake me up and I'll *yawn* punch you in the fa--.
