Inside Jin's pocket dimension and 1 day after Jin's disappearance.
The place looks as grayish and monotonous as always, with the experiment junks lying around the place both of them call home.
It's been a few hours since that snowball fight Serina had with Jin. Now she's just lying down on the couch, waiting for her creator to arrive. Due to him taking so long to arrive today, Serina turned on the TV to see what her creator was up to. For a while, it only showed up statics, and so does the sounds which never happened before. Upon waiting a little bit longer, she could barely see the image of what seems to be a village and inaudible noises of people she hasn't heard of before. She turned the TV off and thought that Jin might not have paid the electric bills yet and went outside.
Before Jin left, he shared a portion of the his permission connected to the pocket dimension—to be able to manipulate the space and reality within it. This allows the pocket dimension to feel as an actual place with trees, grass, weathers and it's own seasons. Though she doesn't know why she was given such a thing, she doesn't question it. Heading outside to test such powers. She watches over the monotone area around her for a while before closing her eyes. She starts imagining back to that time when she first played snowball with her creator in that snowy environment. That cold winter wind blowing through her face that somehow carries a warm feeling. Then she opens her eyes, revealing the vast white snowscape as far as her eyes could see. Those same snow covered trees from memories pop up from the ground with a single thought, the flat surface of the snow rises to form up hills and mountains from afar. There is more to be tested, but she likes the current one, and so she stops there and head on inside to continue waiting for her creator.
Just before she touches the door handle, muffled footsteps are heard approaching from behind her through the snow. She turned around, expecting it to be Jin, but was met with that same deranged face that attacked her previously. In an instant, she draws a gun manifested through her power to shoot at him without hesitation.
Savant: "aw c'mon pal, that's not how you greet an old friend, ay?" he says, appearing right beside her without her even noticing.
She swiftly aims for the side of his skull and missed but continues the assault anyways. At some point, she turned the floors into nothing but bursting exploding lava, made the entire dimension rain icicles, increased the surroundings gravity with her power. The entire dimension shook, just for the attempt of annihilation for this one invader. But not one of those could let her hit this skeleton a single time. The skeleton swiftly and accurately moves accordingly with each corresponding situation, like making bones from below his feet as a footstool when the ground is melting hot, dodging every projectiles with pure speed alone and withstanding the immense gravity with his own strength. After many failed tries, she stood her ground, reassessing the situation.
Savant: "are you done now, missy?" he asked, right hand in the jacket's pocket while the other hand raised as if shrugging whilst the area around them slowly turn back to that snowy landscape from before albeit a little fiercer in its weather.
Serina: "What are you doing here, and where's Jin?" she asked, with the sword on her hand shining bright red, enough to see through the snow's blizzard clearly.
Savant: "listen here, believe it or not, but i'm a friend of that guy you just mentioned."
Serina felt perplexed, seeing as how that deranged skeleton from before was now talking much more of that like a normal person compared to the last encounter. Nevertheless, she wonders what he could've meant by that sentence and told him to keep going.
Savant: "now now, i won't just give it to you in a silver platter like that. hm, aha, how about this?" he taps his fist on his palm. "i felt bad for your terrible performance earlier, so I'll let you hit me this time. on the house, of course. and if you manage to, say, hurt me, depending on how much i felt, i'll tell you that much. capiche?"
Serina doesn't hesitate, she puts away the sword and starts enveloping up her entire body in faint red. Before long, she launches herself towards Savant, who was standing there unshaken with both eyes closed and hands in the jacket's pocket. Serina lands a clean punch on his face that sends him flying miles away at supersonic speeds, clearing all blizzards and falling snow in the dimension that reveals the grayish sky once again.
Savant lies down there after the hit for a few seconds, then gets back up no problemo like he didn't just got sent through the air like a bullet just a second ago, patting away the snow residue on his jacket and skull. Then notices Serina already there in front of him.
Serina: "Now spill it." she says in a serious tone.
Savant: "jeez, that didn't even tickle me and you want your rewards already? looks like daddy didn't teach you how to behave." he mocks and laugh for a bit "but fine, i'll tell you. he's taking a short vacation far farr away from here. and that being said, he told me to take care of you for the time being. makes sense to you?"
Serina stays silent and stares at him for a few seconds, looking like she's contemplating about something. Before sighing and turning around, walking back towards home. Savant follows behind shortly after patting away the remaining snows off his pants.
Savant: "soo can i stay?" he asks.
Serina: "Just don't touch anything."
Savant: "by the way, won't the house get destroyed if you do all that?"
Serina: "It's something of higher asset compared to this dimension, so it doesn't get affected by the change outside."
Savant: "hm, neat."
