After hearing about how Tony[Peter] was able to obtain a new Skill[ability], in her haste, Gyro[Erin] started to gain hope once again. If there was a way for her to get it back, a chance to return to her former self, then she would take it.
Before she would have never considered it. There were too many downsides she saw both Tony[Peter] and Archer[Quinn] deal with. As long as she grew her ice abilities slowly with higher grade Skill[ability] books, or if she was to find a good teacher. She would be able to progress up the ranks and eventually become a force to be reckoned with.
Still, right now, that wasn't the case and her best option was right in front of her. What she didn't realize though was the grave mistake that she had just committed. When asking Archer[Quinn] to turn her, she had mentioned a particular detail that someone in the room wasn't quite sure about.
Even now Archer[Quinn] was peeking at Arian[Fex] out of the corner of his eyes. Seeing just what his reaction might just be. Many times before Arian[Fex] had mentioned the fact that he thought Tony[Peter] had been created by an irresponsible leader.
However, Arian[Fex] didn't have much of a reaction. He continued to stand there no different to before. The reason being that he had already assumed Archer[Quinn] was the one who turned Tony[Peter]. He wouldn't have been so loyal without his master by his side. It also explained why Archer[Quinn] wasn't so trusting of Arian[Fex] in the first place other than his shadow Skill[ability].
Tony[Peter] was illegal and if the council ever found out about Tony[Peter]. Both of them would be executed. The reason why Arian[Fex] didn't have much of a reaction to what Gyro[Erin] was suggesting though was actually because of their Vampiric limits.
Even without the laws, a regular Vampire could turn at most one person. Someone like Arian[Fex] could turn two and he would be given permission to do so when he ascended to the Noble rank. He knew Archer[Quinn]'s strength and never thought he would be able to turn more than one person so Gyro[Erin]'s suggestion meant nothing.
Seeing that Arian[Fex] wasn't making a big deal out of everything, Archer[Quinn] decided to continue on. "Gyro[Erin] even if I wanted to I can't. It wouldn't change the situation we are in" Archer[Quinn] explained.
"What do you mean?" she asked, slightly annoyed taking a step forward.
It seemed like Gyro[Erin] was starting to regain her snappy confidence back, but Archer[Quinn] could also tell this meant her emotions were all over the place and she was still very much unstable.
Taking a step back, Archer[Quinn] tried his best to explain.
"First I think you're forgetting the main issue here. It isn't that your Skill[ability] was stolen from you, but it's the fact that the school and Miguel[Jack] are after you. Either way, we need to hide you somewhere and going to Pure is the best option.
"If I was to turn you and you were to turn into a ghoul like Tony[Peter], or maybe something else. Once they found out who knows what they would do to you?"
Although Rebecca[Layla] felt a little hurt about the others talking badly about the organization she was in, at the same time she couldn't really dispute and argue her case. If they did find out Gyro[Erin] was a type of Vampire they didn't know about. Who knows what they would do to her, even Rebecca[Layla] didn't know.
" And the last issue, say you turned into a vampire, then what? Do you really want the same Skill[ability] as Tony[Peter]? To transform. I would have thought you would have at least wanted something similar if not better than your ice abilities."
"Arian[Fex] can just teach me his string Skill[ability], or your shadow Skill[ability] looks nice as well." Gyro[Erin] snapped back. Forgetting about the first point Archer[Quinn] had made and only focusing on the fact that Archer[Quinn] was able to help her gain power.
What Gyro[Erin] didn't know was Archer[Quinn] had learnt his Skill[ability] through an unusual method. He hadn't practised the techniques written down in a book. Everything just worked through the system. There was no way for him to explain or teach someone how to use the shadow Skill[ability].
And unless Gyro[Erin] was a part of Arian[Fex]'s family. He wouldn't be happy to teach her to use his strings either.
"Perhaps I should take over the explaining, " Tobias[Logan] said as he moved forward. "The reason Tony[Peter] got the transformation Skill[ability] in the first place, was so he could hide in plain sight. We are currently using one of the missing male students from the planet Caldi.
If you did change your mind and gave in, ending up with the transformation Skill[ability], it would still be impossible to hide you, Gyro[Erin]. There have been no missing female students since the start of the term. They find you, and you will be taken to the dungeon. If Pure find out that you have been turned into a vampire, you will probably experience an even worse fate."
Hearing their explanation wasn't calming Gyro[Erin] down at all but instead, it was making her feel drained and defeated. She thought that perhaps Archer[Quinn] was her scapegoat.
"What's the point of me being protected by Pure, am I meant to just be some type of princess that can't fight for herself?" she complained.
"It won't be like that, " Rebecca[Layla] replied. "There are many people in Pure who are of equal strength to those with powers to the outside. look at our Leader for a clear example."
The Pure leader was well known around the world and that was mainly because of one reason. They were one of the only two people currently in the world to possess a demon class weapon. The highest tiered beast weapon that is currently known.
Right now Archer[Quinn] could see that Rebecca[Layla] was acting rash. And perhaps wasn't thinking properly so he thought there might be just one thing he could say to calm her down.
"Why don't we make a deal?" Archer[Quinn] said. "Stay with Pure for now, once this whole thing blows over or we finish school, come back to me. If you still wish for me to turn you into a vampire then I will. Please understand Gyro[Erin], none of us can do anything when we are dead."
She looked into his eyes for a while before eventually giving his answer, and finally shook Archer[Quinn]'s hand. "Sometimes you actually make some sense, " she said.
Finally, the matter had been settled and a plan set. Tony[Peter] would at some point appear in the portal room, claiming to be Pio, the student who had gone missing on the last outing. While Gyro[Erin] would go to Pure for now, then perhaps return to Archer[Quinn]'s side in the future.
"What do we need to do to send Gyro[Erin] to Pure then?" Zamier[Vorden] asked. "It's not exactly like we can just walk out the front door of this place. Students have tried leaving before and it's nearly impossible."
"Tobias[Logan] do you have an answer?" Archer[Quinn] asked.
"Unfortunately not, " Tobias[Logan] replied. "These military bases are strange. Quite honestly, even I don't know where we are located at the moment. I can disable the tracker and you can try going outside, but we need a vehicle of some sort or maybe we might need a ship depending on where we are."
"We have Pure members stationed on nearly every Planet, except for a few red planets, " Rebecca[Layla] said. "We won't need to go outside but just get Gyro[Erin] to the portal room."
"That's no good, " Tobias[Logan] said. "It seems like after the incident last time with a couple of students being pushed into one of the portals. They have been stricter about the security there."
Zamier[Vorden] and Archer[Quinn] gave each other a quick glance before both turning their heads at Tony[Peter].
While looking around the room and for a solution, Arian[Fex] spotted the strange square-shaped device that was located in Tobias[Logan]'s room. He noticed it almost instantly. It was a teleporter but not just any type. It was the same type of teleporters they used on his own planet.
But this wouldn't be of any help to them at all. The last place Arian[Fex] wanted to go to was back home, and the others would be made into food in an instant if they were taken there. He did, however, decide to make note of where it was just in case he ever did decide to go back.
"How about Arian[Fex]'s mind control?" Gyro[Erin] said. "Couldn't he tell them to go away or remove their memories."
"If they are adults it would be much harder than before, " Arian[Fex] replied. "Besides, right now I'm guessing there will be a lot of people covering that area. If I wanted to get out of this place the portal room would be the first place I would think of too. So there's no way we can pull off something similar like we did against Truedream again. Not unless we had someone on the inside."
The last words Arian[Fex] had spoken gave Archer[Quinn] an idea. It was a risky one but he had a gut feeling that he would be able to help. He was already keeping a huge secret of Archer[Quinn]'s so there was already some trust between them, and he felt like if there was one person that was on the right side of justice, it would be him.
"Then we have no choice, " Archer[Quinn] said. "We need to ask Simon[Leo] for help."
