The Regio immediately arrive at their destination, which is their mansion or their main base.The long ride from Roppongi to the mansion was painfully quiet, just like the ride the day before, and they were serious the entire ride, which felt intimidating. They didn't talk like they usually do, spitting out banter and laughing. No, they didn't, and they would only speak if it was about business or gang matters, which they were all serious about.And until now, I still got no replies or any responses from Mask, which worried me.As I quickly got out of the vehicle, I walked inside hastily, but then I stopped in my tracks as Zacharias spoke."Bring Allura to her room. Don't let her out until we say so." He commanded the workers."H-Huh?" I looked back and saw some of the workers grab both of my shoulders."Don't touch her." Lorenzo sternly said."Sorry, boss." The workers said as they let me go and guided me to my room instead."Mask, psst." Haru called his friend while they were inside

(Mask) :hey allura, i have my phone back, we can text each other here now.Sent 19:42After Zacharias and I went home from the hospital, I immediately ran to my room and locked it again, then checked my phone.(Allura) :oh slr and how about the walkie talkie? should I still keep it?Sent 22:09(Mask) :it's up to you Sent 22:09(Allura) :ohSent 22:11(Mask) :why?Sent 22:15(Allura) :nothingSent 22:15(Mask) :are you doubting? it's really meI just got my phone back.anywaythere are scratches here and there on my screen as soon as I received itidk what the fuck did our bosses do to our phonesI feel invaded Sent 22:15(Allura) :ohsorry about thatthey're unpredictableeven if they confiscated phones, giving them back with damage is unnecessary.Sent 22:15(Mask) :yeah, it's really weirdthey are weird fucking delusionalsSent 22:16(Allura) :try to calm down for a whileI wish I could help but they're not allowing me to see anyone in this building right nowSent 22:1

I'm still inside my room for days now with no phone, yet they still give me daily meals, but even so, I have no appetite and energy to do anything.Everything that happened in the last two days almost made me lose myself. I wasn't taking care of myself like usual, my heartbeat always racing, sleep-deprived, and most of all, I lost interaction with everyone, as if I wanted to talk to them anyway.There are still no updates from Mask and Hasen also.I stood up from my bed to face the vanity mirror on my desk, finally deciding to maybe fix myself today, but I winced as I saw myself in front of it, looking so groggy and just out of place."God... 'm so fucking ugly. What happened..." I thought as I ran a hand through my scalp and gripped it with stress.I bent down to grab the hairbrush that fell on the floor, but I noticed a small drawer hanging on my vanity. Out of curiosity, I opened it, and what I saw made my eyes widen.A bottle of unfamiliar drugs and pills, possibly some poisonous.

Five days have passed.I'm inside Araoluwa's mansion. It was like Regio's. I have my own room, daily meals served, basic needs, etc.And most of all, I'm back in Araoluwa.Right now, I'm laying down on my bed, just staring at the ceiling while mourning Azazel's death since today is the day of his funeral."Allura, are you ready?" Amanda asked as she knocked on my door.I just nodded, even if it was the complete opposite.I exited my room and followed Amanda downstairs, where I saw Raven, Goro, and the other members, all dressed in formal black attire, waiting in the living room.All of us then went inside the car, with Raven driving, Goro in the shotgun seat, and Amanda in the backseat with me."Allura," Amanda softly called me.Allura didn't hear Amanda call her as she was too busy staring outside the window, and she soon then blinked back to reality and looked at her."O-oh sorry, what was that?""I'm sorry, I'll just give you more time. I was just about to ask you if you needed any

"Good morning, Callista!"The morning dew, melancholy violin music, and birds chirping in the side alley set the tone for the small village named Callista, which is one of Japan's villages inside a district, a rural area. A village where many people celebrate happy occasions with endless tables of food, remnants of memories from festivals that bring every villager's heart closer, families bond with smiles and laughter, crystal clear lakes and ponds that serve as tourists who feed fishes, with the perfect weather, blue skies, and clouds that almost never get dark when it's night time, perfect scenery of the sunrise and sunset, just the perfect serene of Village Callista.One place always stands out, and it's the main church in this village.Every weekend, holy mass is held, and the majority of people attend with their hearts closer to their saints, gods, and beliefs, causing money to flow quickly.The church is regarded as the most beautiful place in the Village of Callista, and it is
