AAA- Alrighty passengers....
Bolt- So you're the driver for this vehicle?
AAA- I'm just a bit of an expert at doing this kinda stuff so just leave it to me.
Lyria- So let's keep this simple, AAA, she is mainly our information and intellect gatherer while I am something like a combatant. It's very normal on our expeditions but since you're here you could just.... hmm
Bolt- Uhh....seems like I'm going to be a hindrance to the both of you
*AAA gives a sideye to Bolt*
AAA- In my opinion it was my decision to trust you and get you onto our scouting group. I believe with the help of you we will be able to find a lot about whatever could have been true about our universe's history...or perhaps it might be the very truth.
Lyria- Let's quit yapping and start already we should reach Echelon by night the day after.
Bolt- I agree with Lyria. We shouldn't overthink things right now.
AAA- Alrighty then, the fuel is loaded, snacks are ready and we will figure out our clothing once we get inside Echelon.
For now let's just wear the usual attire and act normal. Remember; no fights, just get the info and we're out of Echelon. It should hardly take 1 or 2 days while we figure out something.
Lyria- Well then what are we waiting for let's start already.
As Lyria and AAA get into the front seat, Bolt site in the back trying to observe what the world has currently become. To Bolt's surprise, everything looks clean, arranged, unlike whatever was left of his memories.
Halfway through the journey as Bolt noticed there were a lot of buildings and greenery which seemed to make the air quality a bit more.....cleaner? However it seemed like the trees were artificially enhanced to provide better AQI for multiple areas. The path to Echelon is straight from the Southwest side of Tsala, the camp of this group of scouts.
Bolt- So umm, you both haven't come up with a name for the scouting group?
AAA- A lot of people have asked about our scouting duo name...we'll obviously come up with one eventually but I guess we both can leave that to you Bolt.
Bolt- Some of the houses in Tsala looked very familiar for me.
Lyria- !!!
AAA- Anything could be possible, after all we found you in Tsala, I don't know how much you remember, but if you're able to remember you old house maybe, then perhaps it has some connection with you. Both me and Lyria are from Tsala as well so we are the part of the Tsala Scouting group.
Bolt- I guess we could figure that out later but...I'm kinda happy that things are coming to my mind after I have supposedly woken up.
While on the journey, there seems to have been an accident ahead of the Spacecar.
Bolt- Hold up! Is that...
Lyria- An accident.
AAA- Alright, we need to be careful from here onwards because this could be one of those accident prone zones.
Lyria- LOOK OUT!!
Then right before the Spacecar appeared, a tall entity with a dark coat, a mask with a sad face, and with the power of Radiance 🕯️ tried to strike down the space car.
But Lyria, as quick as ever draws out the mysterious dark red sword, able to block the attacks from this entity.
Lyria- You both!! GO ahead, I'll join you after a while
??? - Chatting in the middle of an assault are we? Go on let them leave....I have words before I depart to Skyveil.
Bolt and AAA understand the situation and prepare to move faster away from the area.
Bolt- Are you serious??? You're THAT confident in her prowess?
Lyria- No doubt...we must escape, the only thing that can even physically harm her is that of a Vanguard member or something beyond that.
Bolt- AND? What if that was a Vanguard member?
AAA- No way, the vanguard rarely show up in such odd places, they are always present in huge occasions such as the one we're about to go to in Echelon.
As AAA enhances the Spacecar speed by using Drift, both Bolt and AAA are able to move away really quickly away from the danger spot.
Bolt- From the looks of it, it seemed like that person spared is from getting involved into a fight. That's very kind of him.
AAA - Yea he could've just got the both of us if it weren't for Lyria and her blade.
Bolt- I think we've gotten far enough...is there any way to contact her now?
AAA - Umm Bolt....
Bolt- What...is it?
AAA- I think the three of us just forgot our phones!!! Well I don't know if you even had one to begin with but it's my fault for not reminding us!! Ugh...
AAA saddesns quickly knowing that one wrong mistake lead to all this happening and now none of the two in the Spacecar can contact Lyria.
Bolt- Phones still exist? Those were useful I swear...now why the hell did I not think about that..?
AAA- Anyways, we need to gamble and hope she is well and alive. Let's just pray the constellations and hope she returns back safe.
Bolt- AAA.
AAA- What now? Please....
Bolt- Something tells me that Lyria will be completely fine.
AAA- *completely surprised by what Bolt said* Huh, what makes you think so?
Bolt- If you said that she survived these really strong beings called..vanguards, then she should be able to handle such people, no?
AAA- But as our group member I am just a bit more worried about her. She could get extremely reckless given the amount of power.
Bolt- You know in my opinion...if the two of them fight right now...the entire area surrounding us including us who have travelled quite far...
AAA- 120 KILOMETRES IN 20 SECONDS!!!
Bolt- Yea,yea...more than how much we're gonna travel the entire place will be in ashes....and like you said it's not the best idea to be caught up in the media's eyes.
AAA- Hmm, smart thinking but then our best bet will not for them to engage in any combat.
I mean it all happened so quickly none of it even felt like that entity was going to kill us.
Bolt- Let's eat now AAA, I think Lyria will handle this just fine so, let's be call and trust in her.
AAA - Well Bolt, you're certainly good at convincing people...plus I'm hungry after all that driving so let's just eat.
Bolt- Ok, driver ma'am!
AAA- Hey! That's not what I'm known for!
Meanwhile in the middle of the line route to Echelon where this mysterious entity and Lyria encountered.
Lyria- So....what does the decimator of an entire race want from our group?
???- So with this route? The two of- no it seems you have a new member in your group...not that I care but...it seems like your trip in Echelon won't be all rainbows and sunshine.
Lyria- If you're here to fight, then the one you're looking at is whom you're gonna be fighting.
???- No, I merely have come here....to pass a message. Alright? A message, not a misunderstanding. Keep it modest and things shall favour the way of the Flux Vigor.
