Back at the hide out, later that evening…
Jerry holding in his pain; ahh, ah, that hurts.
Lisa; sorry, but I have to get this bullet out.
Jerry; but I said I would just wait till I got to a hospital.
Lisa; and I told you, I can't risk you getting an infection, because this would is really bad.
*also, I really wana do this*
Then Lisa pulled out the bullet quickly.
Jerry; ouch!
Lisa; how does that feel?
Jerry; better.
Jerry then healed the would almost instantly.
Jerry; thank you.
Lisa; it's nice you've mastered healing yourself.
Jerry; it's just a perk of having a nite reserve as large as mine.
Lisa; I can do that too.
Jerry; ah right, because you're directly related to the founder.
Lisa; you want to know something interesting?
A few minutes later…
Jerry to Lisa; wait, so you're saying that Ga-denians have nite as part of their souls?
Lisa; yes, and only by using the two at ounce can the true power of nite be unlocked.
Jerry; you know, I've seen a lot of crazy shit in 6 years, and it just gets crazier and crazier.
Lisa; yes, but remember, this is nite we're talking about, it's like a magical energy that came from space.
Jerry; no, I'm pretty sure it was the ancient chief that placed all his power inside the stone instead of passing it down to the next chief.
Lisa; huh, it would have made more sense it had just came from space.
Jerry; yeah, it almost makes you wonder where the power came from in the first place.
Lisa; who knows.
Jerry; also besides nite, I've had to deal with black magic.
Lisa; black magic?
Jerry; yeah, back during the Con incident. We dealt with is or what we thought was black magic, I don't know. At first I was shocked cuz I never believed magic existed but then again, C and K didn't know what it was either.
Lisa; maybe it could be some quantum phenomena we don't know about.
Jerry; quantum huh, that's what they do in movies whenever they can't explain what's going on. Still regardless of whether I can explain it or not, the issue still remains.
You know, I've been wondering, and there's something personal I want to talk to you about.
Lisa; alright, but first, how has been being the leader of Ga-den?
Jerry; to be honest, it's hard. And also a lot of pressure.
Lisa; I thought Kurotsuchi and Yuzawa where handling everything?
Jerry; that's the thing, before any decision is made, it comes to me first to see which option is the best. They said they wanted to show me what being the leader was truly like.
Lisa; how bad was it?
Jerry; 2 years ago I had to decide what I should restore first, the orphanage, or the ballroom, fund the suits, or give the money to those who lost their homes. It was bad enough they made me choose but whichever discussion I made they implemented. Thanks to me several restorations where delayed for months and several people froze to death.
Lisa; don't blame yourself, it was Con who attacked the estate so you're not at fault.
Jerry; I told myself that every time I see the families of those who passed on, it's why ounce a month, I would visit their graves, it's the best I can do, visit the ones I couldn't save.
Lisa; come here.
She then pat her lap as she sat on the floor, the Jerry came and rested his head on them while she placed her hand on his head, and began playing with his black hair.
Lisa; remember that other time when we were kids I got lost in the park., I was so scared I thought I would get dragged away at any moment. But then you came along, you got me back, but because of that, you got late for your father's award ceremony and got in trouble because of it. You see, I feel guilty, after all, you're going through all this, because of me. While you make all those hard decisions I've been traveling around the world enjoying the freedom you gave me.
Jerry; listen to me, I'll never regret this decision, back then, I saw a friend in need and I decided to help, what kind of friend would I have been if I had done nothing?
Lisa; Thank you, you know it's things like this that make you a great person, and a wonderful boyfriend. But I think I've had enough fun.
Jerry; wait, are you saying?
Lisa; yes, after we're finished here, I'm returning home.
Jerry; I'm very happy to hear that.
In a different room…
Kongou to Hei; So, you learned how to fight from Lisa?
Hei; actually I used to do martial arts when I was a kid, however Lisa taught me a few new things.
Kongou; I see.
Choki; …
Hei to Choki; hey you, what are you so sad about.
Kongou to Hei; he's just down because he got captured and Jerry got injured trying to save me.
Hei; well that sucks I guess.
Kongou; he's always taken his responsibility extremely seriously, as the rest of us ranked.
Hei; I see.
Meanwhile…
Lisa, overjoyed; Yes… Yes, I will.
Then they both hugged.
