5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido
“Ah?” A young adult catgirl with a slim build. Her eyes are a golden-amber with visible bags under them, due to working overtime in her lab. She has pink hair which she keeps tied in a specialized style consisting of a long ponytail backing up longer tufts resembling large cat ears, which tend to overshadow her actual animal-like ears, which fade into white at the tip. A hole at the lower base provides room for her twin, cat-like tails. She also wears a pair of small spectacles. “So lemme get this straight: it’s been nearly 3 years since i- Hell Anyone saw you after…Mika….Maria…”
“Mirajane.” Nanto Corrected her.
“Yeah that: After her wedding” the girl took out her lollipop and pointed it at him “Then you get this freaking bright idea to leave and we never hear or see you again…well until now that is.” He eyed him off “So why should I let you use the portal? After the shit you put us through?”
“I have a will to fulfil Kokonoe….Liz passed away and she wants me to look after her pupils” Nanto replied in a calm fashion.
“Uh-huh….What do I get out of it?” she said in a pout like tone “I mean…There is plenty of Earthland to research on, so I’ll throw you a deal here, I’ll appoint you mission from time to time, in exchange: you can freely jump world whenever you like.” She smirked, placing the candy back in her mouth. “So?”
“I will accept those terms.” Once again the Black unit replied in a cool tone. However it didn’t sit well with the pink haired girl.
“Nanto…what the matter?” Kokonoe voice was more gentler this time “If it’ your body I can help-“
“Nothing like that…Koko, It’s just…..” Nanto couldn’t say it, but he had to. “Altima is my home…and yet….i don’t have the courage to face them.”
“…….” She sighed before motioning him to follow “it’s a Start…going back to see them..They all miss you, despite being the hardass you are Nanto: Ragna, Lisanna, Hagimura, Izuna…hell Even Noel is tyring to find you.” As they entered a large room, A large portal was in the middle of the room “Give me a moment, I’ll put in the coordinates…”
“Thanks.” A single thanks was all Nanto said…”Perhaps….take Gwen and Stacy to see what The guild Liz was in…might not be so bad..Maybe…it was time to see them once again…..
“Alright, it’s all ready for you Nanto.” She reached into her pocket and pulled something out “Keep this with you, we can communicate when I need you..also-“
“I;m going home…first back the Hidden leaf…and then Back to Altima…” Nanto looked at her “I’m tired of being the lone wolf now….Even Sensei…”
“Let’s…leave it at that, the love feast is killing me.” Growled Kokonoe as she pointed the the portal “Stand there and I’ll do most of the work.”
Nanto nodded as he did as he was asked as he looked back at the cat girl, he gave the nod. “Good Luck..Child from nothing.” She pressed the button.
Nanto saw nothing by White light…
