Sunni sat nervously on the sitting room's couch with Hana sitting opposite her on another couch and looking at her, suspiciously. "Speak... Don't you have anything to say?" Hana inquired. Sunni had wanted to hide the fact about Lucas, at least until she's ready but right now, she didn't think she could hide anymore. But she also had no way of explaining! "You're gonna be quiet? Really?" Hana asked as Sunni looked up at her. "Well, it's nothing so don't bother..." "You call it nothing. Late at night...you're with a guy who seem to have passed out and you call it nothing? Judging from the fact that he smells like alcohol, could it be that the both of you went for a drink??" "No no... it's not like that" Sunni had to explain something before Hana misunderstands entirely. she had no other alternative "Well, the thing is.... I....he.....he's a partner" Hana was mute looking at her " Partner?" Sunni nodded "Well that agency you opened up for me....he was the only person who applied so he became my partner in my little job" Hana watched her friend for a while "How could you keep the fact from me? Such important thing how could you not tell me that your detective work is already blooming with a hot guy as your partner?" Sunni knew it was a tease from Hana so she couldn't care less " It's not successful...I've already broken up the agency....and got employed into MI agency.. ." Hana froze on also hearing that news" What you've been employed?? since when?? Sunni there's lots of things you're really not telling me!" "No no.. it's not like you think. I... About the employment thing, I was only employed today. " She explained as Hana looked fixed at her. "Really? then I'll believe you this time. But you'll have to tell me detailedly about this your Partner..Tell me your relationship. " "There's no such thing. We don't have any relationship. He's just my partner and nothing more" Sunni said. Hana was her very good friend who helped her always and saved her from homelessness or anything worse. and keeping anything from her disturbed Sunni. She felt the urge to tell her things but couldn't reveal Lucas's identity....at least not for now ", Well actually, while you were away and I employed him I thought he was pathetic, he had no home, no family, no friends and had poor experience with the world with a bad EQ, so I to initiative to invite him to stay here for a while....I hope you're not mad I made him stay here..." Hana smiled suddenly "Why would I be mad? Rather I'm glad that my Sunni has finally found her guy" Hana teased. "What? ...I said it's nothing like that" "Okey Okey. I won't say again. But still. since you told me the truth, I'll pardon you. But why did he pass out drunk?" "Well I reported to my new job today and he insisted on following me, and got drunk with a teammate there" "Oh...I see" Hana smiled, " He even insists on following you everywhere.... that's cute" She teased again as Sunni gave her a murderous Stare "okey. not talking. But look on the bright side...you got a job! how did that happen? I thought that detective general guy slandered you.. why did he employ you?" "Well, let's just say he saw through my talents" Sunni smirked , proudly. "Okey then. why don't we celebrate it? Getting into your dream job!" Hana said. "I don't think so. I'm really tired tonight after working. Maybe tomorrow night because I have a mission tomorrow" Sunni said getting up. "I guess we'll have to sleep here tonight' "Yeah... because your sweet partner is unconscious in our room" Hana teased again and smiled on seeing sunni's murderous Stare. "Sure. sure ...I won't talk" *********** Opening his eyes, Lucas found himself in a blue scenery. Everywhere was literally blue and plain and there didn't seem to be anyone around. Looking around, he didn't seem confused or surprised, it was like he knew where he was. "How come you can still come to me?" Lucas suddenly asked as there was a moment of silence before someone appeared before him. The person was in a human form and was a man likely to be in his late forties. For his attire, he wore a black suit looking like a business man. "Why do you have to call me into myself?" Lucas asked looking at the man whom he seemed to know. The man smiled. "You careless boy .. isn't it obvious that your physical self has shut down for a while?" "Shut down? why?" Lucas asked. "You act as if you know nothing when years ago I explained the whole situation to you when you first got stuck on earth. I told you that this is not your home and you may not be able to cope properly here. And so to maintain your life before finding a way home, the comet night provides you of a way to feed by killing humans. it works like eating and this way you can keep on sustaining yourself, Didn't I say this?" "Yes, Why?" Lucas asked. "Well I don't know how you went against it. I also did tell you that if you ever, by any chance go against the will of the comet and do not feed on this day, you're physical self will be damaged and if care isn't taking your soul and then you'll perish into non existence" "So....you mean that my body is down now because of me not killing someone on the comet night?" "Sure. But yet again I'm still wondering how you managed to resist the Comet's urge?" The man inquired curiously. Lucas hesitated for a while recalling how he had calmed down the previous night all because of Sunni. "I have found it" "huh? found what?" The man inquired. "My instrument for returning home" He said. "Really?? Then take it and get back home! What are you waiting for??" The man inquired. "It's.... it's in a human" Lucas explained "What? Then take it from the human!" The man snapped. "Take it?" Lucas repeated "How?" "Eh....well I'm not too sure...but I'll return home and ask The alien doctor about this and tell you the next time we meet, but isn't the best way of taking it killing her?" "Killing?" Lucas asked. "Yeah... it's quick and easy" The man explained leaving Lucas in thought. "But still....You don't have much Time left you see. If you get back your tool as soon as possible, then you can leave here and return home quickly. And for your current state, you'll have to find someway to restore your physical self first" "But...how?" Lucas asked as the man thought, rubbing his jaw. "Well...i can try gaining you few hours of your physical self on earth...but few hours and with this chance, you got to compensate by killing a soul.... tonight" "Tonight?" "Yeah. If my calculation is correct, there will he another night of comet tonight." "Again?" "Yeah. It's getting rapid recently and a feast for you. But if you don't get back soon....You'll end up a human slayer and might advance to killing even on normal days" "Well. make human for few hours, let me restore myself" Lucas requested. The man made a sofa appear as has sat down, comfortably crossing his legs. "Well that...I can't...you have to wait till night so you'll have greater chances of success. Because I can only assure you 3 hours. so going now is useless" "So what should I do?" The man looked up at her "Wait of course"
