N: They both left the guild later on, few minutes pass by and they have finally arrive at a large house that looks more like medical lab or clinical lab.
Ash: We have arrive! Behold Professor Jalmeel house! Well you can say a clinic because he is in fact, a doctor.
* Grin *
Saika: This Is a clinic? And also a house? What should I expect?
* Look towards Ash *
Ash: Well nothing much, just make sure to stay strong! The scent in there in pretty... Let's just say unbearable.* Small smile *
Saika: Does It stink? Not that I will mind it!
* Nervous chuckle *
Ash: The smell is not bad, let's go inside. * Give a gesture to approve her arrival *
* As they both get in, the room in filled with a sweet, floral, flower-like scent. With Professor Jalmeel sitting with his leg crossed in a chair *
Ash: Hey, Professor! Sorry I didn't give you a heads-up about my arrival.
* Professor Jalmeellookedover his glasses to look at Ash *
Professor Jalmeel: It's alright Ash, I don't really mind it. So why are you here? And It looks like you brought someone here too.
* His critical gaze wanders at Saika, Saika shivers at the gaze fell on her *
Ash: She want my help, our help Professor. She is infected by the Blue zone mark curses. * Ash slam his hand softly to Professor Jalmeel table *
Professor Jalmeel: Blue zone mark you say? The same curse that Is almost impossible to cure due to its rarity?
* Professor Jalmeel stop mid speeches *
Show it to me.
*Saika hesitates, before slowly lifting her long black sleeves upward to reveal the Blue X-shaped mark that slowly pulsing on her hand*
Saika: So.. How about it?
*She gulp *
Professor Jalmeel: This Is gonna be...A hassle. * He pinch the bridge of his nose*
I can help but it will probably take a while to gather some information about this curse. You do know that this is rare right? Not to mention it chose you as its vessel. You're truly unfortunate.
* Saika's eyes turn horrified and filled with terror as she heard Professor Jalmeel explanation *
Saika: AM I GONNA BE DEAD? DOOMED?! * Panicking *
Ash: Relax Saika, I'm sure Professor Jalmeel has his own way to solve this problem. * Ash's nod proudly *
Professor Jalmeel: Actually I do not. Especially with these kind of rare curse. Finding a cure for it will be hard. Not to mention I have no experience at all for this kind of curse for me to cure it. But, I'll try a way to help you both out. In fact, You * Points a finger to Saika*
* Saika eyes turn hopeful again *
Saika: You will help me sir?!.. R.. Really?
Professor Jalmeel: Yes, I will help you, but I'll only help you find the cure. The rest is up to you.
* Saika practically beaming with excitement, nods vigorously *
Saika: Don't mention it sir! And yes the rest is ours to handle!
Ash: Yep, just tell us where to find the cure and we will get it in no time.* Small grin *
Professor Jalmeel: Just give me some time to figure how to find it.
* After a few hours *
Professor Jalmeel: After hours of searching. I finally found it. * He stretches His body*
Saika: So where is it prof?? PLEASE TELL US! TELL ME!
*Stands up from the chair*
Ash: Yeah prof, you better tell us and not make us wait again.
* Professor Jalmeel raises his hand,trying to calm them down*
Professor Jalmeel: Patience, young one. All will be revealed in time.
* He takes a few deep breath*
Professor Jalmeel: It's in the Aetherix Laboratories. Yes the same factory that is now—ruined.
Saika: Aetherix Laboratories?? The same factory that got destroyed by a sudden accidental explosion?!
Ash: Wouldn't that be dangerous. I'd bet there's dangerous radiation coming from the destroyed factory.
* Professor Jalmeel sighs *
Professor Jalmeel: Here is a thing Ash, Saika. The radiation is commonly from a healing potions. They are not that dangerous.
Ash: Not "that" dangerous..? Meaning it can be dangerous right?!
* He narrows he's eyes *
* Professor Jalmeel sigh deeply *
Professor Jalmeel: if you were exposed to it by long enough—yes. You can get affected by it. But as long as you are not too long in the laboratories, I personally think you will be just fine. * He smirks while crossing he's arm*
Saika: Sounds... Unbelievable.. But alright, we can make this fast and smooth so none of us gets affected by the radiation. * Small smile as she look at Ash *
Ash: This... Better be worth it. * He stands up from the couch *
* Takes a deep breath*
Ash: Aetherix laboratories it is, I'm going to help you get the cure Saika.
* Smiles while giving a thumbs up, Saika smiles warmly at my gesture*
Saika: Let's make this quick and get back home safely.
*30 minutes gone by after they take off from Professor Jalmeel House, they're walking through a cold, quiet forest wrapped in shadow and unbroken calm."
Saika: Can I ask you a question Ash?
* She stops for a moment before walking again*
Ash: Of course! It will be more fun if we chit chat while walking through this deep gloomy forest!
Saika: How long has it been since you create your guild?
Ash: About 2 months? It's still new and plain looking, don't expect much from it.
Saika: 2 months... Oh look, we have finally arrive at the Aetherix Laboratories!
*The fog clears up revealing a massive facility that has been ruin and old, piles of rubble and rocks stacking up*
Ash: Oh.. My... Is there even a way to enter this Facility?! The door to this Facility seems... Broken
*Stares at the broken bunker door that are already graze and burn by something.*
Saika: If there isn't a way to enter this Facility, we need to make one.
*She creates a powerful barrier and push all of the rubble aside, making a new entrance to the facility*
Ash: Woah you can just create that?! That's incredible!
*Saika blush and look away shyly*
Saika: it's nothing much!
*She clears her throat*
Saika: Let's... Get going then, better be quick in this "safe" facility.
*They both enter the facility, gasping at the sheer size of the chamber*
Ash: WOAH WHAT! This is so big..! There's more room on the other side too! Just how big is this factory?!
*Gently poke one of the untouched potions*
Saika: Something is off, the potions are arranged and tidy. Like someone or something has enter here before and did all of this.
*She ponder deeply for a moment*
Ash: You're right, we better be careful and watch our back for and danger.
*Saika take out a map from her pocket*
Saika: Professor Jalmeel said that the potion might be around on the third floor of this factory. But the elevator is.. ruined and it's impossible to use it.
Ash: I guess we will need to use the stairs..
*Sigh deeply*
*And somewhere else in the factory, a wide grin flashes and disappear, moving fast and smooth*
