Chapter 23: To Pull a Miracle
One week later...
The heroes are coming up to a gigantic city in the middle of a more barren landscape than usual.
Ariyae: "I'm just confused that anyone could live here in the first place."
Rox: "You should've seen the first time we were here. Our lungs got clogged with volcanic ash."
Makoh: "F-First time I have heard that story."
Lariat: "You weren't with us yet. It was just me, Owen, Rox, and Thoris coming to get Veld."
Cale: "Only Gigas lungs could handle the ash in the air."
They're almost at the city, only to find Second Page members patrolling the perimeter.
Owen: "What the hell?!"
Owen temporarily gets them off the road so they don't spot them.
Rox: "What's going on here?! Did they get Veld?!"
Cale: "James's radar says he's okay."
Ariyae: "(confused) Who's James?"
Everyone begins to fidget around.
Makoh: "(awkwardly) A-An old friend."
Ariyae: "(suspiciously) Okay..."
Cale: "We c-can't get in with these guys all over the place!"
They have to develop a plan ASAP.
Lariat: "I have a proposal."
Owen: "You always were the brains."
Lariat: "Ariyae, can you soar over the town and try and get us information about their patrol routes?"
Ariyae: "I might be able to."
Ariyae hops outside.
Cale: "All we can say is, good luck."
Ariyae starts gaining altitude.
Ariyae: "I don't need luck, only skill."
Ariyae soars into the sky and looks down from above as she gets an oddly bad idea.
Ariyae: "(in the distance) I'll see about snooping around inside as well!"
She zooms towards town at top speed.
Makoh: "Th-That doesn't sound like a good idea!"
She can't hear a thing they're saying.
Cale: "No! Ariyae!"
Owen: "Now what do we do now?!"
Lariat begins to meditate.
Lariat: "(concentrating) Sit and pray she doesn't get caught."
Rox: "(awkwardly) I was hoping for something a little less stressful."
