ZODIAC GALAXY "PLANET CAPRICORN"
WITHOUT IAN

Eri and I were having a look, we understood each other what we thought. It will be in vain the training, the fighting and the pain of many. But we can't force this either.

“Ian, maybe you really want to be here with your family, but just briefly lend your strength to your own country.” All the time from Eri. Ian did not flinch at all, he remained with his stance. Eri took a deep breath, not only him, I had also repeatedly persuaded him. “Then why did you bring us here?, Our training for weeks with Uncle Yian, wasted.”

I held onto Eri's shoulder, she was already on the verge of her patience. I could see the veins on his face starting to pile up, his jaw hardened and his hands clenched. Not knowing how else to persuade him, whereas to fight Kil needs five men, without Ian, our team is incomplete.

I also just realized the other nature of Ian, he was very contrary to what I thought. Ian became stubborn and thoughtful of himself, but he was the one who always put common interests first, he was the most good at strategizing. But now that Eri has given up on Ian, this is not the first time we have persuaded him. Yesterday, morning, afternoon, evening and tonight. There is no more time to relax, you must immediately practice more seriously.

Eri left the living room, now it's just me and Ian. I know growing up alone in this cruel world is not, so he deserves to be happy with his family that he never had before. But this isn't just about him, your original purpose here was to help him fight Kil.

I stared at Ian's black eyes, I didn't know what to do with them either. “Ian, you are a good boy, please think back to this.” I said before I left that now I don't know what's in his head.

I caught up with Eri who had been sitting on the beach, leaving his legs wet by the waves of water pacing. He lowered his head between his legs with his hands as a buffer. Seeing made Mother's words repeat in my mind that Eri was a lonely child, had a deep sadness and was also a fragile person.

Sitting next to him and leaving half my legs exposed to the waves. The beauty of the beach is never lost, I think the more beautiful the day just this beach. However, it is a pity, this beauty can only be enjoyed by people who are in sector 5 only, while other sectors can only settle in their place. Surviving even though the place was like hell to them.

“What does family mean to you?” Eri asked while drawing a family in the sand, just like Ian at that time.

Discussing family being a sensitive thing at this time, I also do not know the meaning of a family. What I felt was distress in my chest, I could not describe what I felt like but sadness. I don't know the true meaning of a family, I just have a mother who in fact she is a servant of the kingdom.

Then what was it like to have a Cemara family like Ian, Ian had passed his storm alone without family. And now, if he chose his family it made sense, he would definitely not want to lose to his family twice.

“What do you think?” I asked her to stop describing, she looked at me with a different look than usual. His gaze was like full of sadness, his gaze filled with wounds. When I looked into her eyes, I was like I was drowning deep into the dark, cold, and alone ocean floor.

The corner of his lips curled thinly then shook his head “I don't know.” Not yet understood the contents of his head, he stood up while patting the part of his clothes that was hit by sand. He reached out his hand “Come, I think Jian and Ken are already waiting.”

I nodded and tried to grab her hand, but she quickly pulled her hand and patted it as if it were a mosquito. Just now I felt the other side of Eri, now I feel the old Eri back. He pranked me again.

He ran when I chased him. We were chasing each other, splashing water and pinching each other. I'm happy that Eri is like this, full of laughter, ignorance and troublemaking. We were romancing until we didn't realize we were at the training ground, Jian and Ken. Two people who are handsome and very tall, it feels unable to focus if training with them, because the heart is like thrashing out.

“You were so old.” Ken said as we approached him, he was wearing casual clothes like those of Planet Earth. Eri and Ken shake hands as best friends, they embrace each other and hit each other on the shoulder. “You are like a child, sometimes quarreling, shouting, laughing indistinctly, then judging each other and getting angry.”

Me and Eri stared at each other, who would laugh with him, he was so ignorant of me. Like if he hadn't cheated on me for a day, then his life wouldn't have been wonderful. After all, if I get angry a lot, it's all because of her.

“Is Ian not coming?” This time the voice came from Jian, before I had told him and he told me to persuade him. Without answering him, only through a glance, Jian understood what I meant. “He's a strong and kind boy, maybe because he hasn't seen his parents in a long time, he doesn't want to lose them again. Also, Ian's parents didn't allow Ian to join.”

I looked down, kicking sand at my feet. I feel guilty, Ian is my best friend, I must feel the same way with him.

“It's okay, maybe I'll fight twice.” We all looked at Ken, he was the oldest here and he was definitely the most powerful among us. What a dream guy, he's strong and smart. Ken embraces Eri's shoulder “Alright, let's practice. I will train you from morning to morning.”

“Alright, SPIRIT!!.”
