As the door opened, it's bells chimed, signaling someone was entering the building. Emilia abruptly closed her book and took off her glasses.
"H-Hello? Somebody there," she asked aloud, standing up from her chair. "It's closing hours, I recommend you leave," her hand harnessing void energy, ready to let it go at will. "This is [i]not[/i] funny, please stop," she pleaded. Footsteps, first faint but got louder and louder at each second.
Emilia checked her surroundings, if anything, it could be someone waiting to capture her, or the Stone. The footsteps got louder, no... closer to her. She clenched the void energy in her hands, breathing nervously.
"This isn't funny," she called out, anxiously. "Seriously, stop!"
"Dismantle mines, yessss? Or you die," a voice called, imitating Variks. Emilia turned toward the sound, and threw the ball of void energy into the general direction. The Nova Bomb released into an explosion of void light and energy, destroying whatever was in it's radius. "Oh sh--."
Bookshelves were torn apart, pieces of paper filled with literature, ruined, scattered across the air. Emilia breathed heavily, clenching her heart.
"Chill, Emmy..." Rush jumped out of the destruction, landing behind the Warlock. "It's just a prank."
"Rush," Emilia tried to hold in her anger, "Do you know... How much destruction you have made me cause?!" She pointed towards the crater in the Library, which radiated purple.
"Uhh," Rush turned backed, looking at where the Nova Bomb had landed. "Eheh... yeah sorry... Yeah, actually, I came here to talk to you," he finished, rubbing the back of his neck. Emilia crossed her arms, sighing.
"About what?" She asked.
"Things."

"O Kell, my Kell," a voice clicked in the darkness. "We must do something about our current situation..."
"Speak," Urksis growled, sharpening his shock blades. "I do not have much time. I wish to restore order to this House," the Kell finished, resting his shock blades. The Kell turned around, walking towards his throne.
"As you wish... We have gained Intel from our scouts. About... [i]her[/i]," the voice inhaled heavily . "I hope this pleases you," he set down a computer chip, next to the control console.
"What does it contain?" Urksis asked, confused but interested.
"Back in the Vault Of Glass," the voice clicked, walking toward the light. "A lowly Dreg attached a tracker to the girl, yes? We now know her every location, every second. We can capture her easier now, yess?"
Urksis chuckled, grabbing the computer chip, beeping in his hand. He fiddled around with it, chuckling louder by the second. [i]Order will finally be restored to House Stone.[/i]
"It also... Can. Be. Remotely. Detonated," the voice smirked, chuckling silently, leaving the throne room. "Have fun, my Kell, O Kell," the voice cackled, walking away from the throne room.
"I will..." Urksis cackled, examining the chip. "If we do capture her, we will keep her alive until we can restore order to our Prime Servitor. Her friends will not save her, she will pay..."

Emilia let out a deep breath, putting her hands on her hips. She smiled warmly at the newly cleaned Library.
"Thank you for helping, Rush... And thank you for talking to me about said 'things'," she giggled, picking her book and glasses up. "We should leave now. I'm only allowed a few hours after closing time."
Rush nodded, standing up and dusting off his clothes. "Be there in a second, Em-" the Warlock confronted Rush, looking him in the eyes.
"We leave now," she strictly said, grabbing Rush by his Dead Orbit t-shirt, and practically dragging him across the library. "I'll be gentle if you listen to me. Hunters," she scoffed.
"[i]Ooh~.[/i] Feisty." Rush snickered pulling his collar away from Emilia. "Yeah, well... Hunters," he said mockingly. Chortling, he caught up to the Warlock, walking alongside her.
"Come on, let's go. The others are surely waiting..." Emilia quietly said, blue from embarrassment.

Urksis fiddled with the device the figure had gave him. He put the device down near a Fallen monitor, bringing up all the data it had stored. The Guardians, their weaknesses, their strengths.
"Interesting..." Urksis chuckled, skimming throughout the device's data and folders. "This is perfect," he scrolled profile by profile, memorizing each Guardian's information. The Guardians in the Vault Of Glass. He was focused especially on Emilia. Memorizing as much as he could to capture her, interrogate her, and kill her.
A Baron walked into the Throne room, looking at the monitor. He looked curious and spoke.
"What is happening, my Kell," the Baron asked, bowing before his Kell. "Is it something of importance to us?"
"Gather our troops," Urksis extracted the device and attached it to his cloak. "We are going scavenging..." He chuckled, louder and louder by each second. "We are restoring the House of Stone."
