Lucy felt her pockets getting a little full.
(When are we meeting your little thief squad?)
Lucy had mentioned this to him, Ace was curious to who this little criminal gang she was in. She was a thief and well it isn't to hard she mingled with the wrong people.
But, being with her for just a 2 weeks. He can easily tell how she worked, her personality. She didn't trust nobody and her trust in him was now dependent on him. Even if she bickered with him, he would just dismiss it as nothing.
"Three days"
(Boooo! I want to see the people you mingle with.)
"I don't know why you want to see them, we're a group of mercenaries. Many who just hang out in that one hiding spot."
Lucy hasn't also went to the hiding spot, though she does remain in contact with her current squad. Well, there was no request to take up on yet.
She liked to be alone most of the time. Though she did partake in the group gathering and some drinks they had.
This loner girl was something. Ace expected her to be just some orphan like loner.
'I feel like you're talking behind my back.'
Her eyes narrowed, as Ace chuckled.
(Indeed, after being with you, you're not some loner though you act like one.)
'I'm one.'
(Yeah if you weren't in a gang.)
Lucy ignored him, as she was hidden behind a wall. Finding a hideout for her to take on because she was more confident now.
'Ace.'
(Haaa~)
Knowing her intent, he appeared and was crouching behind her. She felt him breath through her ear, as he blew into it. Making her spin shiver, as she blushed and quickly turned to him. A glare from her was cute.
"Can you not!?"
She whispered with a hiss not trying to raise her voice. As she had multiple in the vicinity.
"My apologies lady Lucy."
His smile was playful making her eyebrow twitch. He knew how to get a reaction from her, even if she imagined him swearing some loyal oath. He wasn't under her control, he did what he wanted since the summoning.
Ace enjoyed her, she liked to have fun and it showed. Lucy concentrated as she scanned with her eyes. She got the information as her hacking skills worked like a charm. Multiple figures were labeled red as they glowed in a virtual map that appeared in her face.]
A map panel that showed detailed information about the insides of the hideout.
"Now."
"On it."
Ace appeared as he made a dramatic entrance.
"I'm lost guys, can I get direction to the nearest burger shop?"
Multiple thugs looked at him, and their weapons aimed at him.
"You want food pretty boy? You stepped tot he wrong place."
*BANG*BANG*BANG*
Shots wrang out and only for him to snap his finger and time stopped for them. Ace snapped his finger again and they were consumed by flames. Unable to scream in pain while frozen in time. Lucy saw this and ran to the door for the second floor.
"Hey!"
One of them guarding the door tot he 2nd floor yelled at her. As she quickly swept him off his feet. Her whip slashing his arms before he could shoot.
"AAAAh! You bitch!"
Her whip then wrapped around his neck and took it off. This caused a scene and multiple of them fired at her direction.
She quickly hid behind a pillar, as bullets grazed the pillar.
"He~"
She grinned, as she quickly ran to another pillar to take cover.
"Lets get this rat!"
She wrapped her whip around one thug's arm using it to have him accidentally blast his friends brains off.
*Splash*
Lucy quickly took cover again. As one got close but he froze in ice. In her shadow, Ace saw the commotion and he let her do her thing for a bit.
She threw an emp grenade and fried the nearby enemies.
"Ah!"
"She fried our shit!"
They fell to the ground, Lucy one by one killed them off with a bullet to their head. With their own gun, she then cleared the areas. One by one, she found herself in front of a door.
*Crack*
Ace busted it open with a kick, revealing a fat man who jolted in shock. As he was counting his money.
"Do your thing."
Lucy didn't need to be told twice. Making sure she rinsed this man's pockets.
*************
A woman who mourned the death of her son made a decision. She went to the a "Doctor", who was able to implant the acquired Sandevistan that she nabbed from the dead psychotic killer who went psycho from the use of the Sandevistan.
Paid using everything she had. Even finding a book that the crazy doctor had acquired not to long ago. Giving it to her because it was just for looks, a useless thing for not being worth jack shit.
She looked at it, as she was at home. She saw the contents and didn't care, she was going to do it and kill those that killed her son.
***********
Lucy didn't know why he was glowing, Ace smirked. He knew when he was summoned in this world, that he sensed another of his books. Even though it was random one of these worlds can contain multiple of his books. Making it multiple users, more summoners and quite the more amusing spectacle he would witness. He can sense them no matter where it is in the world he is summoned to.
"You're being summoned!?"
"I'm."
"Are you leaving me...?"
She didn't want to sound sad but for some reason her heart felt pain. Like a sense of loss hit her, Lucy didn't want to say it. She trembled as she had fun with him, talking even when he was irritating. but he was there beside her though inside of her.
Always helping her, he was the first she trusted completely. She didn't think she would feel this way and she did. Biting her lip, she then felt a hand on her head.
"Stop looking sad, you can't hide it from me."
Trying to maintain a poker face, she was discovered. Feeling his hand rub her head as she felt it give her warmth.
"It's a new summoner and besides i can alter between helping one and the other, i'm a great multitasker."
He chuckled, as he pinched her cheek. Making her eyes widened.
"Don't sulk, ruins that pretty face."
He then disappeared as he went to his new summoner. Lucy touched her cheek unconsciously, staring at the spot Ace was.
