A feverish heat slowly displaced the cold in my body, causing sweat to soak through the brim of my hat. Why was it getting so hot in here? It felt as if the heat of a thousand suns had poured into the room while I wasn’t paying attention. Or the fires of hell coming to take me.

I adjusted my clothing as I stared at the building across the street from me. The Blue Crusade Little Yukoto department sat in all its splendid glory, an ever-intimidating sight for the masses.

I set my boxes down by the door as Feras finished gathering up the last of his stuff. “Zuku! Just who I was waiting to see…”
“Are you finally moving out?” I looked him over, feeling a bit unsettled. I swear his gaze looked off for some reason.
He smiled brightly and slung his bag over his shoulder. “Just about. I can’t keep leeching off you forever… my pay?”
