The pinked haired girl volunteered to help Yon walk, as both she and Yon weren''t in any condition to fight if they encountered the Nebula.


    Continuing through the forest they were suddenly shot at from a distance the three of them dropped to the floor, originally Chi-Sun thought it was Nebula until she realised it didn''t look or sound like beam weapons, her mind jumped to the possibility of it being North Korean soldiers, if that''s the case why are they so deep behind enemy line, she thought to herself.


    She heard someone in the distance shouting, "Stop shooting you damn idiots!" it sounded like a man.


    The South Korean sergeant jogged up to Chi-Sun saluting her, in many cases military personnel viewed Familiars as higher ranking officers than themselves, Chi-Sun had to be honest though being saluted by grown men when she was only sixteen made her feel uncomfortable.


    The sergeant didn''t waste any time, "Everyone is falling back we''re preparing to evacuate"


    "What''s the word from the academy?" Chi-Sun asked, it had been a dozen or so hours since she left Essensu South Korea Academy, and it was where the first years were still stationed at prior to the Third Nebula Invasion.


    "Sorry, we''ve heard nothing about the academy..." the sergeant turned around to glance at the Nebula Titan Platform in the distance before looking back at Chi-Sun "...when that thing emitted the electrical blast it fried all the systems we have, we''ve lost contact with pretty much everyone".


    Chi-Sun turned back looking at Yon, the other girl their faces showed a hint of fear at the thought of what might have happened at the academy.


    Chi-Sun, Yon and their third comrade were redirected along with the small detachment that encounters them earlier by a forward operating base to this location, as they entered the vicinity to see military personnel, Familiars and Coordinators rushing around the base.


    In the distance Chi-Sun caught a glimpse of the academy Mistress, in a more casual attire, her unkempt short light brown hair showing off her more laid-back approach to life, however right now she was in serious mode.


    Chi-Sun ran over to the mistress leaving Yon and the pink haired girl behind, "Mistress, what''s going on?" she called out.


    She paused for a moment before responding, "We''re evacuating the remaining Familiars and Coordinators out of the country to Japan" she swiftly responded.


    At first, Chi-Sun was shocked to hear those words, "Why! We should stay and fight!".


    "We don''t have time for this Chi!..." paused for a moment before motioning for Chi to look around "...we were lucky to have these many students make out alive, so we can''t risk anymore" the Mistress turned away not giving Chi-Sun a chance to talk.


    If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.The girl looked up her red eyes with tears spilling, Chi-Sun clasped the girl''s slender face in between both her hands as tears came from her eyes too.


    "E-Elizabeth" Chi-Sun quietly said Yon and the pink haired girl walked by the duo with the latter still helping the former walk, not wanting to interrupt their moment, continuing on towards one of the military transports.


    As both Chi-Sun and Elizabeth embraced again, the two were interrupted by a military MP announcing the departure of the last transports for the Familiars and Coordinators without further ado, the duo quickly boarded one the modes of transport that both Yon and the other girl happened to just board.


    Suddenly something came across Yon''s mind, she turned to the pink haired girl, "What''s your name, we never asked you".


    At first, the girl didn''t say anything, "It''s Namita" she responded.


    "Wait, that''s a Nepali name isn''t, so you must be from Nepal?" Yon asked Namita nodded to confirm Yon''s question.


    As Chi-Sun sat down, she looked to Elizabeth, "I''m glad you''re safe I don''t know what I would have done if you were killed".


    As the transport took off from the base, everyone onboard was in deep thought wondering what was going to happen from here on out.<hr>


    In the distance, she could see the faint flashes of explosions, and the purple, pink and orange combination of lights mixed in with them.
