Pea Hardsh.e.l.l happened to locate the unconscious Lucas and brought him to the infirmary with the help of Zanc and Maru.Moon was also there and the two cousins were being treated. There was also the bystander, named Light, that was also a handpicked member.
"I heard Lucas shouting that Doll Nova was abducted.." Light spoke to Pea Hardsh.e.l.l. He has his cobalt blue hair, highlighted with few white strands on it. Also, bunch of piercings were seen on his right ear, but there was no earnings place on each hole.
However, Pea was a beautiful girl with a nice character. She looked pretty concern even to the two that she didn"t made friends. "The Headmaster will be there soon, to take charges of this two patients.."
In front of Zanc and Maru, Pea decided to leave the infirmary, leaving the five boys in the room.
Zanc and Maru seemed tensed. Light was keeping his eyes on them. They can"t look to Lucas, even if the boy was unconscious.
"Is there any problems between you two and Lucas?" Light asked.
Zanc slightly panicked. "Uhm.. We"re okay.. I-I am just concern, m-maybe if wouldn"t heal quickly.."
Maru faked a smile, wiggling his feet back and forth to help himself to be stable from nervousness.
Suddenly, Moon woke up, shocking Zanc and Maru, who both avoided to be stared. However, Moon"s eyes was easily be captivated by them.
"Two Bastions!"
Zanc avoided his stare by looking down. Maru"s face was supported by his palm, and his elbows were resting on his thighs.
"Lucas, wake up!" Moon shook Lucas" chest. Lucas frowned and opened his eyes. It dilated when he saw Zanc and Maru.
"You, two!!" Lucas stood and glared at the two. "Do you think I won"t found out?!"
Light became pale. He was there when the Bastions left the Null Room. He was also there when Lucas also left.
"L-Lucas, s-sorry.." Maru whispered. "I was very hesitant at first, but Zanc insisted.."
Zanc bowed his head lower. "Spare us. We will accept any punishment you will give.. Just don"t burn—"
The creek on the door stopped Zanc from speaking. A man with formal attire entered it as if hurrying.
"So you were Doll"s friends..?" the man asked. Maybe he was the Headmaster they were talking about.
"Yes."
"No."
Lucas and Moon answered oppositely. The man looked at Moon who answered no. "Then who are you to her?!"
"Uhm.." Moon cleared his throat. "We love each other. Is there wrong with it, Sir?"
"You surely was a transferee, huh? You don"t know that Doll is my daughter!!" the man shouted. "I wasn"t letting her to have boyfriends like you."
Daughter..?!
"If you love her, you must"ve protect her! That was surely a moment of confusion or attraction, but not love!!"
"Headmaster Nova, please calm down." Light interrupted, and prepared to leave. "Please excuse me.."

So he was Doll"s father. "Sir, Doll"s abduction was purely accidental. No one knew that she was targeted.."
Lucas stepped closer to Headmaster Nova. "Sir, if there was to be blamed, please put it to those ArmorBoy and BladeGirl. They defeated us, and transport Doll using piles of ashes while we are not looking."
"Sir, we protect each of us that needed to be protected.. Maybe it was enough for an apology for you to accept." Lucas ended.
"Apology?!" Headmaster asked angrily. "No, I won"t accept it! Go ahead and find her as soon as you can! No, now!!"
"How can we go out and find her with our condition like this?!" Lucas" tone raised slightly noticeable.
"Hmph," Headmaster chucked, covering his mouth with his closed palm. "People nowadays are lacking respect, how rude.."
"Respect?!" Lucas retorted.
"Lucas." Moon warned, but Lucas continued.
"You first to show respect as a higher up, before receiving what you wanted." Lucas exclaimed. "Respect us lowered people first, and we"ll respect you back!"
The Headmaster felt tensed, and a rising angriness went straight on his spine. "You—"
"Stop your s.h.i.tty lessons, and lend your ears for others, too." Lucas abruptly said. "Remember that the one who became rude should be the one to be rude at!"
Headmaster Nova was stopped by Lucas. He was right. Respect begets respect. That precept should not be forgotten.
"Whether you order us to search for your beloved daughter, we will surely do that. She was our friend. We will protect —not hinder— each other from what we want."
Lucas turned back and sat at the bed he previously laid on. Moon heave a sigh, as the Headmaster turned to leave.
He held the door handle, but turned back for a while. "I trust you now. But made sure to save my daughter, Lucas Martin.."
Headmaster Nova finally left, while Lucas looked to Moon whom he found sad.
"Is there a problem?" Lucas asked in a mild voice.
"No, never mind." Moon replied, but truly, he was minding what Headmaster Nova said:
— "If you love her, you must"ve protect her! That was surely a moment of confusion or attraction, but not love!!"
