"Wow. I never cared about this before, but why is my Resistance only 1?!" Gem complained and groaned even more when the pain kicked in her stomach once again for shouting out loud.

"Why can't I do anything to help myself?" she whispered softly while curling up in her bed again.

The tears that she was holding back since the beginning while convincing herself that she can handle it all suddenly fell down on her cheek, breaking her positive spirit and making her slowly succumb to the uncontrollable feeling of negativeness that the evolution seemed to be giving her aside from the stomach cramps.

"I… I need to complete the tasks," she said, trying to bring back her optimistic outlook in life once again but the darkness was just too strong to compete.

"Come on, Gem. I need to complete it! Or else, we would need to find another way to go back to Solitude again. And I don't want to die." She thought while silently sobbing in between her knees. "Not again."

"Come on Fily! Faster!" Von shouted to Fily while they were on their way upstairs.

Since Fily's weakness was her physical strength, she couldn't really catch up to all of them especially since Lei was fit and the other two can fly!

"Come on, I'll help you," Lei said with his eyebrows crossed while offering a hand to Fily but she refused his offer while saying,

"No thanks. I'm fine. You two can go ahead, I don't mind." She said to them continuously before taking a deep breath and recovering her pace that was slowing down everybody even though they were still just twenty steps away from the basement's floor as of the moment.

"By the two of us, you mean me and Von?" Lei said as if Fily said something offensive to him.

And when Von heard this, he immediately crossed his arms and looked away from the both of them.

"I've been meaning to ask this since earlier, but I thought that was not a great time… But are you guys fighting? I mean did you fight? You used to be this close together!" Petunia said and moved her face closer to Fily's face, exaggerating the closeness that she thought was just normal for the both of them.

"What? Eww!" Von said with a very disgusted face while Lei was just sporting a blank expression the whole time.

"So you did fight! Well, that's new." Petunia said as if she was happy for them.

"Why did you fight?" Fily said even though she was already busy fighting for her life against the stairs.

"He's a traitor," Von answered without hesitation which made Lei's expression harden.

He tried opening his mouth to defend himself, but since Von was still a little immature, he just chose to close his mouth again, letting Von think whatever he wanted to.

"See? He didn't even deny it." Von said, further proving his point which Fily and Petunia were both not convinced of.

"I doubt that. Lei is the most loyal person I have ever met and that is coming from a thou- I mean  fourteen-year-old girl, don't you agree, Petunia?" Fily said and laughed nervously for almost saying something she wasn't supposed to say.

"Right… I also believe Lei is not the kind of person that would easily betray you. Why don't you just tell us exactly what happened out there? I mean, he even accompanied you when you ran away from the castle! If that isn't enough loyalty for you then I don't know what is!" Petunia exclaimed excitedly, apparently convincing Von to spill the tea while they take their time striding upstairs thanks to Fily.

"You planned to jump off the island and live a new life with Von on the ground?! On the ground?! Really?! Why would you want to live there where all kinds of nasty and ugly monsters exist!!" Petunia exclaimed exaggeratedly after hearing Von's side of the story.

And although Fily also wanted to say her two cents on the whole thing, she couldn't say a word while dealing with her breathing and annoying disadvantage of weakness.

"Okay, Fily is busy so… you. What's your take on the story?" Petunia said while pointing at Lei. "I am totally on your side even if you don't say a single word." She followed with a whisper to Lei which Von could still hear thanks to his supersenses.

"What? So you're teaming against me now, huh?"

"We're not teaming against you, Von. We're just trying to knock some sense into you." Lei said, finally exceeding his usual five to ten words dialog.

"Well said." Petunia stated.

"See? You're teaming up against me!" Von said stubbornly which would only make the rest of them facepalm out of frustration.

"He's so immature." Petunia whispered to Lei, ignoring Von's presence beside her.

"He'll be able to understand us soon," Lei said.

"Ughhh, I hate it here. Will you please go faster Fily so I can leave this suffocating environment now?" Von said, ignoring the fact that Fily was already having a hard time as it is.

"Von. Can't you just accept that Lei saved you from making the dumbest decision in your life?" Petunia started, seemingly prepared for an argument with Von, unlike Lei.

"What is dumb about wanting to be free?! Free from all of this… from all of you!" Von stressed even more which offended Petunia.

"What's wrong with being with us? It's not as if we did something very bad to you unlike what you're usually doing to us!"

"What did I do?!"

"You're rude, selfish, and immature. And you always hate people for no reason! Including me, Fily, Gem, and most especially Lei. You should stop planting hate in your heart as you please, we're going to be teammates now and teammates shouldn't be fighting amongst themselves." Petunia said, seeing the situation as an opportunity to finally knock some sense into Von as the eldest in the team.
