"gil....this isn't right...i know its...my fault. i was supposed to get them both out...i screwed up...i should be the one to fix this" jacob said, his head down. he looked over to nuri. "i pretty much found my way around the order last time...why not send me in alone...then you nuri and ada can pull the exorcists away from the order. bell can stay here with addie...i'll be quick about it...i'll go in, get arisa, and get out..."
"and what happens when that exorcist shows up again jacob....or when you lose control...then what? do you expect us to just let you play the hero because its what you want?...you can't get everything done on your own and your acting like a brat...thats my daughter in there...she is in danger and she is scared, so do NOT sit here and tell me that i shouldn't be there when we take her out of there!" ada shot at him quickly, her words amplified by her worry that she was concealing sounded venomous and cold. gil placed a hand on her shoulder and ada turned and walked to her room to change into something more suitable for what they were about to do.
jacob just stared blankly. he'd been expecting gil to scold him or reprimand him, but not ada. ada hardly ever even spoke to jacob. she stood there a moment, totally stunned then snapped out of it. "...i wasn't trying to play the hero i was trying to fix my mistakes" jacob said. while everyone prepared jacob and addie were in his room. he explained about merri and aris being one person and such
"but miss esther...your taking me away from my mommy now...she wants me back too....doesn't she?" she asked, feeling more confused than anything else. there was a light knock on the door to esther's bedroom. "esther...its me...let me in please" laurent said, his voice coming through as soft and kind.
Esther looked sadly to the little girl that was her daughter, and back to the door once her husband had knocked. Walking over to it, she peeked through, ".....Why..? What do you want..? Merriella is eating, I don't think you should interrupt at the moment." She said with a small pout on her face, wanting to keep their daughter for herself at the moment.
Once everything was explained to Addie, she tried to comfort Jacob. He was obviously still taking it roughly. "..Mom's just worried..you know that right...? Arisa and Merri are important to her...just as they are to the rest of us..just try to understand, if it was our own baby, we'd do anything in our power to get him or her back right...?" She felt awkward saying this..since just a few days ago, she'd admitted she didn't want to have a baby, but she hoped that Jacob would understand that way. "They have to do it on their own. If you feel you made a mistake, the best way to help them, is to do as they want things done. The better we all cooperate, the faster Merri and Arisa will be back home, and that's all that matters."
She gave him a pat on the back, and just as she finished speaking, the Earl called out to everyone to come get ready. He was going to open an ark door to get the family in between the countries, which definitely beats having a passport any day, and into the city where they previously lived.
"Stand back children~" The Earl said, his voice sounding jolly as usual, despite the situation, but that was just how it sounded, and he stepped aside himself, to let everyone going inside the Ark.
Once they were all gone, Addie looked to her Uncle, Casius, and gave him an awkward wave, not having spoken to him despite his living in the building. "...What to play a game while they're gone...?"
once back in the city they broke up into their respective groups. jacob and nuri had everything they needed to do set in order. jacob walked towards the order, trying to be visibly hidden, so as to draw attention as he approached the order. nuri followed the same idea from another direction. they moved towards each other. as they were spotted silent alarms went out.
'perfect timing...whatever the issue is i'll send esther...' laurent thought to himself and smirked a bit. "that's the alarm...better go check it out esther...i'll watch merriella while your gone" he said and she reluctantly opened the door, letting him in. she turned to arisa and smiled "i'll be back soon...don't you worry" she added the last part at laurent, almost to serve as a warning. as soon as she was gone laurent looked at arisa and signaled for the scientists to enter. they quickly lifted her and carried her, fighting all the way, to the science department. she was strapped down to a table as they began to run preliminary tests
"LET ME GO!!!!! I WANT MY MOMMY!!!!" she kept crying again and again for her mom and dad, and as they ran tests they began a memory wipe, trying to erase the 'brain washing' that arisa had under gone in the past ten years.
jacob and nuri confronted the exorcists outside, which was no easy task, but working together they managed to stay pretty well guarded. bell snuck gil and ada inside, and as they made their way esther caught sight of them. "h-HEY! STOP!" she shouted and bell froze, recognizing her general's voice easily. she turned slightly, fear in her eyes, and saw esther approaching them, armed and poised to attack.
"d-don't do it general....please" bell begged as she saw esther arm herself with her innocence. ada too was in a fiery mood. "you're the one who took her aren't you..." ada said to the woman, stepping out in front of bell. gil...bell...go get my little girl.....NOW" her last word being sharp and cruel as she placed a hand on the wall, forming a closed wall behind her, separating her and esther from the other two. "where is she?! where is arisa?!" she demanded of her "WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY DAUGHTER?" she grabbed and electrical cord that ran up the wall and formed a scythe of it, the weapon sparking from overcharge
bell led gil around, stopping and checking anywhere arisa might be held that she could think of.
"Y-YOUR DAUGHTER!?" Esther, whose innocence consisted of of a long pole-arm , it's tip being able to change shape, not to mention length, spinning it around and stopping it behind her back, ready to strike. "I gave birth to her....I carried her for 9 MONTHS..SHE WAS STOLEN FROM ME, SHE'S NOT YOURS. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL HER YOUR DAUGHTER!"
Pulling the weapon forward and running ahead, she changed the tip to a small axe like point, and slashed at Ada, intending on killing her right there, to get to the group trying to take away her daughter.
Meanwhile, Gilbert and Bell, who were still searching around for the little girl, suddenly heard her screams out in the end of the hallway. "THIS WAY HURRY!"
There were alot of guards set up around the area, but Gil forced his way through, pushing the doors open, to find the Arisa on the table, trying to get away. "GET AWAY FROM HER" He punched Walker in the face, pulling him far away and tried to untie Arisa as fast as he could. He was feeling too intense at the moment, and no matter who ran towards him, he was able to sense them easily, and knock them away. He was here to get his daughter back, and by God he was going to do it.
