Eric stormed out of Mr. Huph's office, furious and wondering if this was the right career choice for him for the first time since he was hired. He went to his work station, slamming himself down in his chair and staring up at the ceiling. He heard something rattling beneath his chair and jolted up, "Eh!?" He heard a chirping sound and scooted his chair back, and a small droid hovered out from under his chair. It was purple, and had a screen to form complex computerized facial expressions, it hovered around Eric, making happy chirping sounds with a smiley face formed out of several dots on its screen. This droid was known as PAL-303 and he was Eric's assistant, friend, and faithful companion. PAL launched himself at Eric, and hugged him with his stubby little arms, making happy chirping noises. Eric chuckled, "Its good to see you too! Did ya miss me?" Several chirping sounds erupted from PAL, and the words "Of course I did!" showed on his screen. "I figured!" Eric smiled as he leaned back in his chair. However, PAL knew his master better than Eric thought, and soon asked the fateful question. “Is something wrong?” Eric sighed and leaned forward, and began explaining what happened earlier, once he was done, he noticed PAL had the icon of a light bulb on his screen. “What if you took the ship for a while? You’ve earned it in my opinion.” PAL suggested. Eric thought for a moment, his anger clouding his vision, “Huh...you know what? You’re right!” Eric stood up and marched down the hallway toward where the ship was being held, unaware that he was headed toward the event of a lifetime. ====== Once he got to the sky hanger, he presented his ID and told the guards he was going to just take it for a test flight. The guards nodded dumbly and stepped aside, letting him step up the ramp of the ship. Inside the ship, there were living quarters for a larger crew than you’d think from looking from the outside. Bathroom, repair tools, food and everything else were already accounted for. The ship was round, and came off at the back with two wings, it was white with red stripes, and was armed with a laser turret and ion cannons, as well as torpedoes...just in case. The thingypit had enough room for four people to sit, including the co-pilot. It was equipped with the latest in navigational technology, and top of the line Hyperdrive. This was the kind of ship, any pilot would kill for. When Eric and PAL entered the thingypit, after sealing the hanger doors, Eric pressed a few buttons to start her up. And prepared to take off....that was when he got the surprise of his life when his little sister popped out from behind his seat and shouted in his ear: “HIYA BRO!” The surprise caused him to hit the thrusters full force, and send them straight up into the earth’s atmosphere, and directly into space, and into HYPERSPEED with all the speed the ship had in its belly. “GAHHHH FUUUCK!”

It took a lot of self-control to not flinch when his charge screamed into the phone.
"What the bloody HELL do you mean someone took the Tsukuyomi for a JOYRIDE?!"
Seiryuu however did allow his light blue eyebrows to raise in confusion. And jealousy. He was after all contracted to fly that ship funded and built by the Straussberg Foundation for almost three years before it was even a metal frame. Plus, it was under lock and key. And it was an experimental ship meant for another purpose...one very dear to his lover's heart.
"So you think you know who took it? Well, that's not going to help me much since he's probably halfway across the galaxy or in another dimension by now, is there?! I want whatever contract he has terminated and once he is found, disciplinary action taken! There will be a severe audit on the entire factory within a week because of this and you can almost guarantee a breach of contract!"
The woman on the phone was a military tactician and head of the Tsukuyomi Project, Lezel von Straussberg. Though barely even twenty, she helped design the ship and for a greater purpose that apparently this jokester had no idea of. So quite frankly, she had every right to be pissed.
"I hope you realize that the General and my siblings will get word of this! You better prepare the Susanoo for a recovery mission and I swear if that ship is destroyed, I'll replace you and YOUR ENTIRE WORKFORCE and make certain you'll never get another engineering position in the entire galaxy! Get to it." Lezel slammed the phone down on the console, dropping into her office chair and covering her violet eyes with a single, slender hand.
Taking a deep breath, she summoned her bodyguard. "Seiryuu?"
Seiryuu came over to her side as she passed her eyes to him, green locking with violet. "Yes madam Straussberg?"
"...go get back my brother's last hope. Do whatever is necessary to bring it back."
Taking her hand, Seiryuu kissed Lezel's knuckles as both devils seem to relish in the hunt.
"With pleasure."

The Tsukuyomi was approaching a planet, the words Earthland appeared on the overhead screen.
"Crap! We're going in hot! PAL! Try to slow our descent!" Eric shouted through gritted teeth, he was being forced back in his seat after all.
Beeping frantically, PAL began to lock into the ship's interface and tried his hardest to slow them down as they entered this...Earthland's atmosphere.
The words FIORE appeared on the overhead now as they breached the clouds, "Buckle your d**n seatbelt, Steph!" Eric ordered.
Having slowed the ship as much as he could, PAL buckled himself up and crossed himself, putting his tiny little hands together in a sort of prayer.
Eric was the only one not buckled up when they crashed outside of the Luminous Lights guild hall.

Deep within one of the many forests of Fiore, Luminous Lights mages were on a mission to stop a group of bandits. It was nothing out of the ordinary for Luminous Lights mages, but Mira was once again taking the mission straight to her head. She had already swooped into the bandit hide out and lit the place on fire, causing quite a bit of chaos.
The bandit boss stepped back hesitantly, and then held his hand out and aimed it at the young mage before him. "Stay back, you little nuts."
Mira stood only a few feet away, her face covered in dirt from the previous battle and her hand resting on the hilt of her sword, which hung at her side. "I've already beaten your buddies, and you're next."
"Like hell I am!" A spell circle appeared before his hand. "Sandstr-" The bandit froze, feeling cold steel on the side of his neck.
"The authorities are on their way." The voice belonged to a woman with dark hair, dressed in a vest, pants, and long sash. Her cold, grey eyes sent a chill up the bandit's spine.
"Yo-yo-you're-" He paled, dismissed the spell, and flung his arms up. "ALRIGHT! I GIVE!"
Evelyn held the blade at his neck for a few more moments, before withdrawing and sheathing it. It was then that law enforcement officials rushed the bandit site, apprehending the bandits and thanking the Luminous Lights mages.
"Sky-Sensei," Mira said, rushing after her mentor as they retreated from the scene. "I could have taken him, y'know!"
Evelyn kept a neutral expression on her face as she walked. "You exhausted too much energy fighting those bandits. There was no use in you exhausting anymore."
Mira pouted.

"SHIELDS UP!" Eric shouted, engaging the shields so that the ship wouldn't be damaged much when they crashed, he couldn't have this ship destroyed....he'd never reach retirement.
Fortunately PAL was able to at least slow the descent enough that they only tore up some cobble stone and earth with their crash, and nicked some rooftops with the bottom of the craft before they slid to a stop.
When they came to a complete stop in front of the Luminous Lights guild hall, they had carved a large path where the ship had dragged itself through the middle of the city, thankfully they didn't damage any buildings except to knock off a few shingles and bricks and such.
The ship wasn't damaged...much....but it was in need of repairs...as was the street and some of the city.
Eric and Stephanie pulled themselves together
"I-Is everyone alright?" Eric asked.
"I-I think so...." Steph answered.
"Beep beep" PAL beeped weakly.
The hanger doors were switched open, and Eric stumbled out to see what kind of trouble awaited them outside, unaware that he was bleeding from the forehead.

The commotion out in front of the Luminous Lights guild brought a number of it's members out, including one of it's S-Class Mages, Isaac Emerald. He came to the front of the pack, eyes searching for what had caused all of the damage.
"What in the world is that?!" One of the guild members shouted, pointing at the ship that had crash landed.
"I'm not sure." Isaac brought his hand up to keep the others at bay. He watched as a boy stepped out of the ship, sluggishly moving. The boy didn't look familiar. "What guild do you hail from!?" Isaac shouted.

Eric looked over at the crowd, at the man who had shouted at him, he felt the blood dripping down his face now, the faces of the crowd swam in front of him. He steadied himself on the hanger door.
He began to speak, his vision blurring all the while.
"Guild? What's a..guild? I-I'm Eric, my sister and my....friend, are in the ship." He thumbed over to the massive metallic smoking thing to his right, "Didn't mean to cause any trouble, or make a mess.....But....I don't know if they're hurt or not, but the way we came in...my sister, s-she could be hurt...and my co-pilot...could need repairs." Then, Eric seemed to have exhausted all his strength, his head wound having gotten to him, he collapsed on the spot.
His sister Stephanie came rushing out, leaning down next to him and shaking him at first, muttering something about it being "all her fault."
PAL hovered beside her, making sad booping sounds and patting her on the shoulder, then noticing the crowd, PAL hovered over to Isaac and in blue text the words: "Can you tell us where we are?" and "I am PAL-303, we require assistance if you would be so kind as to help us?" appeared on his front screen.

"Careful, Isaac! It could be a trap!" Called one of the members.
"Yeah, I'm aware." Isaac wasn't an idiot and kept his wits about him. "I don't see a guild crest anywhere on any of them. Get me some help! We need to get these guys fixed up!"
"Oh man, Sky is not going to be happy about this." Another member commented as some of the guild members hurried over, helping to pick the mysterious boy up and help the sister and... robot?
Isaac kept a worried eye on the three as they were hauled and assisted into the Luminous Lights guild. He had a feeling that whoever they were, they weren't from this world.

Stephanie didn't want to be separated from her brother, and outright refused to let him out of her sight until she too nearly collapsed from shock or...perhaps something else, she felt a sharp pain in her leg and she would have passed out had it not been for some strapping young LL members surrounding her.
PAL beeped and booped, concerned for his friends as he followed them inside.

"Derek, prepare the medical room for me!" Isaac shouted as they entered the Luminous Lights guild building. "And someone tell the Guild Master not to worry, I have this under control!"
"Until Sky-Sama gets back."
"JUST DO IT!" Isaac roared angrily.
Eric and Stephanie were brought to the back rooms of the guild, and into the medic bay where a few Lights were preparing two beds for the two off-worlders. The siblings were quickly sat down, while those with medical experience prepared to stitch and wrap any wounds.

Inside Luminous Light guild hall, Mana was cleaning up the tables and chairs. Well, she was a barmaid in this guild. Her two guy friends were not here since they were currently on their mission. All of the sudden, she heard a loud noise outside all of the sudden and caused most of the guild members rushing out to check what was going on. A few minutes later, they came back with some newcomers. A guy, a girl and uh...a robot? The first two were brought to the medical room fast.
"Whoa there, what's going on outside?" Mana was a bit surprised to see them and ask one of the observers.

Steph sat on the bed, looking concerned over at her passed out brother. "He got a good bonk on the head when we crashed, I hope we didn't hit anyone...or any....houses or anything?" Steph looked around nervous.
PAL decided this would be a good time to test out the upgrade he'd been given by Eric, and switched himself to Voice mode instead of text.
"I hope so too, Stephanie." PAL spoke in a posh accent.
Steph stared at PAL, "Since when can you speak?"
"Since your brother gave me an upgrade before we set out on this oh-so-fruitful journey." PAL said sarcastically. "And by the way.....where are we? Our ship said Earthland and then Fiore when we got close but then....we really don't know where we are even then."

"Mana!" A young blond with pigtails rushed over to the barmaid. "A ship crashed outside! Some super cool, outta this world ship!"
- - -
"Let's hope you and your brother didn't hit anything." Isaac emphasized on 'anything.'
"Yeah, Sky-Sa-"
"Quiet!" He ordered angrily, looking over to Stephanie. "You're in the Kingdom of Fiore of Earthland. You landed in Cedar." He told them. "And just who are you?"

"A ship from outside world? Really?!" Mana's dark brown eyes were brightened up as she heard one of the trigger words: ship. Seeing her expression, the pigtailed blond shivered a bit and has to keep the mouth shut, supposing not to tell her that since everyone in this guild knew Mana was known to crash any vehicles that she saw.

Stephanie jumped at the man's shouting, but answered all the same.
"I'm Stephanie, that's PAL-303, and he's Eric..my older brother." She pointed to each in turn.
It was then that Eric started to finally sit up, "Uhhhhgh......my head." Then his eyes widened as if something horrible dawned on him, "The ship.....THE SHIP!" He hopped off the bed and ran to the door, looking out and putting his hands on his head. "Why did you have to jump out from behind me like that Steph!? Now not only will they know I took the ship, but we're probably halfway across three galaxies or more, and the ship is probably fried!"

"That's right!" The blonde pointed towards the medical room. "Those kids came out of it too!"
- - -
Isaac quickly grabbed Eric by the collar of his shirt and dragged him back over to the bed.
"Sit." He ordered. "You have a mild concussion. Let us wrap it and you can be on your way." Though Isaac seemed rough, he was also very caring. More caring than his partner. He looked over at a few of the guild members. "Bring our guests some cold drinking water."

"Kids?" Mana tilted her head as she remembered the newcomers who were brought into the medical room. "I think one of them is like...same age as I am."
Later, one of the guild members came out of the medical room and walked to Mana's counter, "Mana, two glasses of cold water for the guests. Issac's order."
"Right on it." she nodded, bringing out two empty glasses off the cabinet and pouring the water off the jug into the glasses before she put them on the tray along with the jug of water. She carried the tray and brought it to the medical room.
"Hello, your order's up." Mana knocked the door of that room with single hand holding the tray. Okay, she has no problem on balancing the tray since she was a barmaid.

Isaac glanced up to the door and waved Kana over.
"Over here, Kana." He said, before looking to Eric and Stephanie. "Drink some water. It'll refresh you a bit. And hold still, we have to wrap your head."

Eric took up the glass of water, as did Stephanie and began to drink.
"Um....by the looks of that smoke we might not be leaving all THAT soon." Stephanie said.
Hearing this, Eric choked on his water. "Oh...noooo."

Mana quickly put the tray onto the bedside table and gave a pat on the guy's back to stop the choking.
"Whoa, sir. Are you alright?" she asked the newcomer.
