32 CH31: Women

(A/N: I truly apologize for the late update, I made this chapter long and full of events as a way to make up for it, I hope you enjoy it).

Third POV:

"THEY LET THAT MANIAC LIVE!?" yelled a very angry Xayah.

She was sitting in the dining hall with Rakan, Grey, Ahri and Nidalee. The three roommates just explained that Maia was set free.

Grey was petting Silver who was having his breakfast. Ahri was just as annoyed as Xayah, and Nidalee just came to understand what happened during the mission.

"You think that's bad?" Ahri questioned resting her head on the palm of her hand with an angry expression "they also made her a champion".

"WHAT!?!" the two lovers yelled absolutely shocked that Maia was not only let go, but also became a champion.

"why would they do that?!" Rakan asked angry that the person who tried to kill his lover was given such a position.

"So let me get this straight" Nidalee said and pointed at Maia who was sitting in a table not far away "she tried to hunt you for fun, and wants all Vastaya dead to proof that she's the best hunter?".

"Yes" Grey cleared up ignoring the fact that Maia was staring directly at him.

Aki then reached their table and Ahri stood up "so, do you know why they let her go?" she asked.

The shy summoner nodded "yeah, apparently she was already sentenced for execution".

"Then why is she still alive?" Xayah asked.

"Well... Before the execution, she asked for something called trial through judgement" Aki replied and everyone looked at her confused.

"Is it anything like trial through battle?" Grey asked making the others that were sitting in the table look at him confused.

"And what's that?" Rakan asked what everyone was thinking.

"It's an old costume" Grey replied "it's when someone asks for their fate to be decided through battle. If they win? They live, if they lose? They die" he explained.

"So?" Ahri said looking at Aki "is that it?".

"well, sorta" Aki replied scratching the back of her summoner hood "trial through Judgement is like that, but instead of battle, you go through the Judgement, and if you pass you're let go while also becoming a champion".

"Why would something like that exist?" Xayah asked thinking that such a way to deal with people was stupid.

"T-That rule was made when the Institute was first created" Aki explained feeling uneasy by the Rebel's glare "t-they were really low on champions, a-and they made it to give more people the chance to join, there's a lot of champions that joined like this" she explained what the other summoners had told her.

"I did wonder how they allowed someone like Jhin to stay alive, and I guess that's how" Ahri pointed out while Xayah huffed and sat back besides her lover "So why can't we just kill her now?".

"you can't" Aki said shaking her head "there's a lot of champions that hold grudges against each other, so the Institute made a rule that says the Champions can't attack each other outside the rift while they're inside the Institute".

"I have a question" Grey said making everyone look at him while Aki sat besides Ahri "you said that her kind of Vastaya is supposed to be extinct, so shouldn't you be glad that they spared what could be the last of her kind?".

Xayah rolled her eyes "if it was any other kind of Vastayan, I would be happy, but not a Tengu. I was actually hoping they'd kill her so that her kind can finally go extinct" she said harshly making it clear she doesn't like that peculiar race.

"From what I know, Tengus are a really ancient race of Vastaya, right?" Ahri asked to make sure the information she has from the memories she took was correct.

"That's right" Rakan nodded "and we're talking REALLY ancient, they trace back STRAIGHT to the Vastayashy'rie" he said shocking Ahri, and surprisingly Nidalee too.

"According to my studies, the Vastayashy'rie are a race of spiritual shape-shifters, and are the original ancestors of the Vastaya, right?" he asked referring to the books he was reading and the lovers nodded "so, why do you want Tengus to go extinct?".

"Two reasons" Xayah said raising two fingers "one, they're strong naturally. They have control over two elements, fire and wind, which is why they have two wings, unlike the other winged Vastaya" she said motioning to hers and her lover's single wing "two, because the other Vastaya holds a grudge against Tengus".

"Why?" Nidalee asked. From what she knows, Vastayan tribes are usually really peaceful with each other.

"Tengus used to manipulate the other Vastaya tribes, making them fight each other" Rakan continued for his lover "they used to make them think that the other Vastaya were out for them, and that only the Tengus can be trusted. When the other tribes found out they've been manipulated, you can guess that they weren't happy" he explained.

"That explains that" Grey said still ignoring the stare Maia was giving him while sharpening her clawed gauntlet.

Ahri sighed "well, at least we got a reward for the trouble" she said looking at the bag of gold that was strapped to her waist.

The four champions that went on the mission got the reward earlier today from the summoners, and it was a good amount of gold.

"Grey, are you sure you want to give me your reward?" Nidalee asked holding her own bag of gold since the Abyss Watcher gave her his.

Grey shrugged "It's alright, I get a good amount from what the Institute already gives me for matches. Besides, think of it as an apology for leaving without saying anything" he replied.

Truth to be told, Grey wouldn't have even known what to do with that much money, he was never a big spender, so he decided to give it to someone else.

The Abyss Watcher looked at Ahri "why don't we get your mind off things by going to the city below and go shopping for a few things?" he asked.

Ahri's ears perked up and she smiled "sure, that could help" she then glanced at the lovers and took a deep breath "do you two want to join us?".

"why not?" Rakan shrugged "I've been planning to go into town anyway, I need to costume order some shoes" he said looking at his talons.

"Shoes?" His lover asked.

"Yeah, red ones!" Rakan replied looking at Xayah "come on, it should be fun".

"well..." she said and looked at Aki and Nidalee "I might tolerate the summoner since I have to deal with them all the time, but not the 'human' huntress" she said pointing out the word human.

Nidalee scowled, but before she responded, Grey spoke "actually, we found out recently that Nidalee is considered Vastayan".

"Well then welcome to the family!" Xayah said smiling and her attitude taking a 180 "you have got to teach me how to make traps that fast" she said standing up and putting a hand over Nidalee's shoulder "seriously, how do you do that?".

Ahri rolled her eyes at Xayah's personality change. She would have said something but decided against it.

They stood up and started walking out of the dinning hall. Grey saw Maia still staring at him but he just went back to ignoring her, so he didn't notice her look at his other friends.

They went through the hallway, and exited through the gates going down the stairs reaching the city below.

"So, what do you want to get?" Grey asked his roommates.

Ahri put a hand on her chin "well, our room is a little dull, so why don't we buy something to brighten it up?".

"like decorations?" Grey asked.

"or a few plants? Seeing nature never hurts" Nidalee added.

"Not bad, and maybe a few Video games" Ahri said with a shrug.

"well, I'll just tag along because Rakan is coming" Xayah said and her lover kissed her cheek in appreciation.

"I'll never understand these... Video games your so into" Grey said looking at Ahri and shaking his head "technology is such a weird thing".

"you act like you never saw them before" Rakan said raising an eyebrow.

"actually, you're kind of right" Ahri said and the lovers looked at her "from what Grey told me, his world is a little... Premativ, and they don't have any kind of technology" she said and the lovers chuckled.

"let's just go" said Grey and they all walked through the city towards the shopping district.

They entered a big store with all kinds of sections. Ahri took a cart and went to the electronic section with Aki. Nidalee went looking for something to bring some nature to the room, while Grey, Rakan and Xayah just waited at the entrance.

A few minutes later, the huntress came back with a painting of the forest and put it on the cashier table.

The worker there, an old chubby man, looked at it and then at Nidalee "that will be 30 pieces of gold" he said and the huntress nodded before giving him the money.

Then the nine tailed Vastayan came holding her cart with the shy summoner following her. The cart had a new game console and a few video games.

When the worker saw Ahri, his smile dropped "what do you want?" he asked rudely.

"What's your problem?" Ahri asked noticing his anger.

The worker just groaned "Look, just tell me what you want and leave, I'd rather not have any Vastayan animals in my store" he said.

Ahri looked at him in shock and just left leaving her things at the cashier. She headed to her friends at the entrance with Aki following.

"Ahri, are you okay?" Aki asked concered for her friend.

"Yeah" Ahri replied although a little hurt.

They reached them and Xayah shook her head "this is exactly why I hate humans" she said glaring at the cashier with her lover and the huntress doing the same.

Grey, while looking calm, was actually pretty angry. He was resisting the urge to walk to the cashier and rip the man's throat out. He did it before to many people for less reasons.

Suddenly, he had a better Idea "hey Ahri? Why don't you try using your... 'Charming' personality" Grey said.

The nine tailed Vastayan raised an eyebrow at the Abyss Watcher before a Fox-like smile appeared on her lips.

Ahri turned around and walked back to the cashier where her stuff was still there.

The worker scowled at her. He was about to start talking when Ahri's eyes glowed pink and the man felt his anger vanish.

"Are you sure you want me to leave~?" Ahri asked teasingly.

"W-What!? No! Of course not, let me help you" the worker said almost pleading and took Ahri's things from her cart.

Ahri just smirked as the worker started counting for her things 'I didn't even use that much charm, either his will is weak, or I'm just that good' she thought to herself boosting her ego.

The worker finished counting for Ahri's things "that will be 100 pieces of gold" he said in the nicest tone he can muster.

Ahri can easily afford that, but she decided to keep playing as payback for the man's earlier comment.

The Nine tailed Vastayan put a hand on her cheek "gosh, that sounds a little too expensive for me" she said in a sad tone putting on an innocent girl act with her eyes glowing pink "maybe I should go shop somewhere else?".

The charmed worker started panicking "W-What? No! Don't! D-Did I say 100? I-I meant 50, yeah that's it!" he said planning to keep Ahri from leaving. Her charm making him believe she was the most valued thing in the world.

"Well, in that case" Ahri smirked getting the amount of gold and giving it to the worker "here you go" she said paying and picking up a bag with her things "thank you" she said turning around and whispered with a smirk "Idiot".

When Ahri left, her charm lost it's effect and the worker looked around confused "W-What happened?".

Ahri walked up to her friends with her things. Aki was chuckling with a hand covering her mouth. Nidalee looked at her in pride. Rakan was glad to see something similar to his magic was used on the racist worker.

Meanwhile, Xayah was shaking her head "that was just mischievous and evil" she said and smirked "and I couldn't imagine it being better".

Grey took Ahri's bags "thanks" she nodded "for that, and for giving the Idea".

"Trust me, it was the most peaceful way that could have gone" Grey said knowing that if it was him that went there, then blood will be everywhere.

"Well, where do you want to go next?" Aki asked after she stopped chuckling.

"let's go to a clothes shop, or tailor, I need to get those shoes" Rakan said and they all walked out.

They found a big clothes shop with a tailor connected besides it. Rakan and Xayah went to the Tailor, while Grey, Ahri, Aki and Nidalee went to the clothes shop.

"Alright Grey, I think it's about time to get you some new clothes" Ahri said looking over Grey.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing now?" The Abyss Watcher asked tilting his head.

"Well, they look... Kind of old" Ahri replied trying to be nice.

"Of course they'll look old" Grey said with a shrug "they've been with me for over 40 years".

The three women's eyes widen hearing that while remembering Grey's age "Okay, now we're definitely getting you new ones" Ahri said determined and grabbed Grey's arm before she started dragging him around.

She picked a few clothes with Nidalee and Aki. After a few minutes, they picked up clothes for all of them.

The first to try her clothes in the changing room was Nidalee. She picked her own clothes.

The huntress opened the curtains to reveal her new look. She was wearing a shirt with tiger themed stripes under a short green jacket with a brown skirt.

The others looked at her and Ahri was the first to speak "it's pretty cute, I like how the shirt looks like it was made for you".

"I like the jacket, it brings out your eyes" Grey added and Aki nodded.

"Well, I'll be taking this then" Nidalee replied closing the curtain and changed back.

After she came out, Ahri nudged Aki "come on, aren't you going to try anything?" she asked.

"W-What?! But I didn't even pick-" the Shy summoner was cut off when Ahri handed her clothes she had already picked for Aki.

"You're always wearing your robes" Ahri said motioning to Aki's clothes "let's see you out of them for a change".

Aki took the clothes and sighed deciding not to argue with the nine tailed Vastayan and went to the changing room.

After she changed, she came out wearing a short sleeved green shirt with a long yellow skirt.

"S-So, h-how do I look?" the blonde asked nervous about being out of her summoner robes.

Ahri chuckled at her friend's nervousness "don't worry, you look adorable. You should definitely get it" she said and her roommates nodded.

"W-Well, if you say so" she replied closing the curtain and changing back.

After Aki came out, Ahri picked her own clothes "my turn" she said and looked at Grey "no peeking~" she teased poking his chest before going in and closing the curtain.

The Abyss Watcher rolled his eyes "I should be the one telling her that when I change" he mumbled and the other two chuckled.

"I heard that" Ahri said from inside the changing room.

"Sorry" Grey apologized scratching his head.

Ahri then opened the curtain to reveal her new attire. She was wearing a red shirt, a Jean jacket, and a short firly white skirt with red outlines. Her tails were coming out of the gap between her shirt and skirt.

"How do I look?" Ahri asked doing a spin.

"Well, it really looks good" Nidalee complemented.

"Personally, I think red suits you" Grey added and Ahri made a note to wear more red.

The nine tailed Vastayan closed the curtain and changed back. She came out and looked at the Abyss Watcher "alright, your turn".

Grey sighed and gave Silver who was resting on his shoulder to Nidalee before picking up the clothes that Ahri and Nidalee picked out for him. He was about to walk into the changing room but Ahri stopped him.

"Wait" Ahri said and opened her palm "give me your hat".

Grey raised an eyebrow "why?".

"Because I know you'll keep wearing it, so give it" she replied and Grey sighed before giving her his hat.

He walked into the changing room mumbling to himself "this is stupid".

After he changed, he opened the curtain to show that he was wearing a black short sleeved shirt with dark red pants.

"Now that's what normal clothes looks like, it looks good on you" Ahri said and the other two girls nodded.

"I guess" Grey said feeling uncomfortable outside his armor "the shirt is a little small though" he said moving his arms around.

"That's definitely a good thing" Ahri and Nidalee whispered enjoying how the shirt outlined Grey's muscles.

To their disappointment, Grey closed the curtain and changed back to normal clothes.

He walked out and picked his hat from Ahri and Silver from Nidalee before they all picked their clothes and a few others before paying for them.

After they came out, they saw that Rakan and Xayah were still at the tailor "guess they're waiting for the shoes to be made" Nidalee said.

A store caught Ahri's attention and she smirked "well, there's still something we should pick up. How about you come with us there Grey" she said pointing at the store.

"Sure, let's just-" the Abyss Watcher stopped when he saw that Ahri was pointing at a lingerie store "No" he said firmly.

"What's wrong?" Ahri chuckled seeing Grey's cheeks turn pink.

"I... Why would a store like this even exist?!" Grey asked shaking his head.

"Let me guess" Nidalee said smirking at Grey's flustered reaction "you don't have them in your world?".

"Of course not!" Grey replied and sat down on a bench "just go without me".

"but we need someone to look and give us opinion" Ahri teased further leaning towards Grey.

"Just look at each other" the Abyss Watcher replied and shook his head "I'm not going".

"M-Maybe I should stay too" Aki said embarrassed about Ahri's choice of store.

"Oh no, you're coming with us" Ahri said as she grabbed Aki's arm and started pulling her to the store with Nidalee.

Grey shook his head and sighed getting his blush under control. He tried to look for something to get his mind off the subject when he noticed a flower stand.

He stood up and walked towards it "excuse me?" he said looking for the owner.

The owner revealed themselves as brown haired teenage girl "Yeah, how can I-" she stopped when she looked Grey and her eyes widen "oh my God! You're the Abyss Watcher, from the League of Legends" she said.

Grey groaned remembering that champions are celebrities "do you have any roses?" he asked trying to avoid the subject.

"Y-Yeah, sure" the girl replied and pulled out a vase full of red roses "how many do you need?".

"Just one" he replied and the girl nodded before giving him the rose.

"That will be one coin of gold" she said and the Abyss Watcher nodded before paying her and turning around "w-wait!" she said and Grey looked at her "uhmm... If it's not too much trouble, can you sign this?" she asked holding up a poster.

The poster was about Grey on one knee, his head down with ashes and fire falling from him. ''''from ashes and cinder, I shall rise'''' was written on it.

Grey sighed "sure" he said taking a pen from the girl and signing his name "this is my real name" he said.

"Thank you" she replied and saw his name written on the poster "Grey Ashnex, huh?" she asked and then noticed Silver on Grey's shoulder "awe~, is this your pet?".

"You can say that" Grey replied while Silver barked. The Abyss Watcher found the word 'pet' a little demeaning, so preferred 'friend'.

He turned around, and walked back to the bench he was sitting on before. After he sat down, the lovers finally came out of the tailor.

Rakan was wearing red shoes with gold trimming that were a little different than normal. They were wide at the front, and small at the heels. They also made a clicking noise with each step.

"I see you finally got those shoes" Grey pointed out.

"Yeah" Rakan replied kicking his feet a few times "they're really comfortable, and they'd make great sound when I dance" he said doing a couple of dancing moves with his shoes clicking.

"Now I got to deal with that noise" Xayah sighed and looked around "so where's the others?".

Grey pointed at the lingerie store without looking. The lovers looked at where he was pointing.

"Oh" Xayah said raising an eyebrow "guess that's why you're alone, they told you to stay here?" she asked.

"Well, Ahri did try to make me go with them to take my... Opinion" Grey replied a little embarrassed "but I declined".

"Wait" Rakan said raising his hands "they invited you to go and see them, but you said no?" he asked and the Abyss Watcher nodded "you're either gay, or have the strongest will-power I have ever seen in a man"

"I assure you I'm not gay" Grey replied and sighed "and about my will-power, that's something that Ahri's really testing whenever she feels like it".

The lovers raised an eyebrow in confusion. A few minutes later, the three girls came out with bags in their hands.

"Oh! You two are here" Ahri said noticing the presence of the lovers. She then looked at Grey with a smirk "Grey, you should have been there. There was all kinds of things and I got-".

"Please don't tell me" Grey pleaded with a blush on his face. He knew that if Ahri put that image in his head, he'd never get it out.

Ahri chuckled at Grey's reaction "well, the point is there was many kinds" she said and looked at the rebel "they might have had something for you Xayah".

Xayah scowled "and what's that supposed to mean?" she asked suspiciously.

Ahri chuckled putting a hand on her mouth "well... How should I put this... You're a migit" she said 'trying' to be nice.

"what the!?" Xayah said shocked "I am not a migit!" she yelled in anger. Rakan just looked away deciding not to comment on that "first of all, for my type of Vastaya, I'm considered average hight" she said in a matter of fact manner and pointed at Grey "second, compared to the undead, everyone is a migit" she then crossed her arms and looked at Grey "because, and I'm seriously asking, what the hell have they been feeding you as a kid?" she asked.

They all understood why she said that. Between them, Ahri and Rakan were the tallest, they were about the same hight, a little taller than average, but even then they just reached about Grey's chin.

"If you think I'm tall, you should see Pontiff Sulyvahn" Grey said and shook his head "he is like a walking tower with swords" he said and shivered "that man seriously scares me" he mumbled.

The Abyss Watcher heard Silver bark from his shoulder. He saw the wolf pup excited and looking at a store.

"A pet store?" Grey asked and Silver barked "well, I do owe you for just leaving without saying anything, so let's get you a toy".

The wolf pup barked and started wagging his tail while Grey started walking towards the pet store and the others started following.

They entered the pet store and Grey sat Silver on the ground "go look for something you like, and I'll buy it for you" he said and the wolf pup nodded before leaving and searching.

"Wow, they have everything here" Nidalee said looking at the animals and equipment "they even have poroos" she said pointing at furry balls that had tiny horns and tongues hanging out.

Grey heard a small bark and saw a small kid fox "oh look, a little fox" Grey said and knelt down to pet it.

However, when Grey's hand got close, the fox started whimpering and took a step back.

The Abyss Watcher raised an eyebrow while the fox kept whimpering. What he didn't notice, was that the fox wasn't even looking at him.

The fox was looking at Ahri who was standing behind Grey, and she didn't look as kind as the Abyss Watcher.

Ahri was giving the fox a death glare. She pointed at the fox, then at Grey, and then did a slitting motion on her neck.

She was clearly telling him 'touch him, and you're dead!'. The fox got the massage clearly and backed off.

Grey stood up and turned to the nine tailed Vastayan who immediately changed her expression into a smile "that was weird. Do you know what's up with him?" he asked thinking that Ahri should know.

"Some foxes tend to be paranoid" Ahri replied waving her hand "Trust me, it's normal".

The Abyss Watcher nodded deciding that if anyone should know about that subject, then it would be Ahri.

The nine tailed Vastayan then noticed Xayah smirking at her "paranoid, huh? You forgot to say that some also get territorial" she said.

"Oh, would you look at that cutie" Rakan said noticing a red bird in a cage. The bird started panicking "woah, what's your deal?".

What the charmer didn't see, was that Xayah was behind him glaring at the bird with three knives in her hand.

The rebel put the knives away and saw Ahri smirking at her "what?" she asked.

"Nothing" Ahri replied looking away and then started coughing in her fist "jealous much" she said between coughs.

Grey then found Silver who already picked a toy, it was a toy small sword that the wolf pup held in his mouth from the handle.

"You want that one?" Grey asked and Silver nodded "alright" he said picking Silver and going to pay for it.

The worker saw the toy and nodded "that'll be 3 pieces of gold" he said and Grey paid for it before they left.

"So where do you want to go now?" Xayah asked.

"Let's look around, I'm sure there's something interesting" Ahri replied and the girls walked forward while the only males stayed together.

Grey and Rakan looked at each other "let's hope we survive this" Rakan said as they followed the girls.

Time skip: (brought to you by chibi Ahri and chibi Nidalee trying to drag chibi Grey into a lingerie store).

It's nighttime by now. Ahri, Aki, Nidalee and Xayah were walking the stairs to the Institute.

Grey and Rakan were behind them, and they had a lot of bags in their hands "I'll never understand what's up with the women of this world and shopping" the Abyss Watcher said shaking his head.

"You're over thinking it, just accept how we are" Ahri said waving her hand "It was a lot of fun, and we got a few things we wanted" she added but then sighed "but I'm still mad they let Maia live".

"Now you're the one who's over thinking things" Grey said and the others looked at him confused "you should just accept what happened and forget about it".

"I don't know if you remember, but that lunatic tried to hunt us for fun!" Xayah said still mad of the subject.

"I do remember, I just don't think much of it" Grey replied and the others looked at him in shock "to you, yesterday was the day we defeated a psychotic killer and turned them in. But to me? It was just another normal Tuesday" he said making them realize he's been through this before.

"I'm starting to get concerned on what kind of life you had in your world" Ahri said in genuine worry.

Grey stopped walking for second and everyone looked at him while his face turned grim as flashes of his world and the things that live there appeared in his head.



"Trust me, for the sake of your sanity, it's better you don't know" Grey said as they all decide to drop the subject and entered the Institute.

They walked inside, and when they got near the dining hall, they were approached by Ezreal, Lux, Garen and Katarina.

"Hey guys, there you are" Lux said noticing them. She then looked at Grey "Grey, why didn't you tell us you had a girlfriend?".

"What?" Grey, Ahri and Nidalee asked, the two females louder.

Then to their shock, Maia walked out from behind Lux "yes Grey, why didn't you tell them about me?" she asked.

"You!?" Xayah and Ahri said in anger.

"Yes, that's me. I'm Maia, the claw of extinction" she said introducing herself and her new title.

Grey kept his cool "I assure you she is not my girlfriend, if anything, she's my enemy".

"Wait, what?" Ezreal asked confused.

"Grey, how could you?" Maia gasped in fake shock with a hand on her chest "yesterday you were looking at me with such intensity, and you said that no one will take me from you" she said in a obviously fake romantic tone.

Those who weren't there looked shocked "wow, I didn't take you for the type" Katarina said looking at Grey.

"Seriously dude, I thought you were better than this" Ezreal added still oblivion to what really happened.

"You lying b*tch!" Ahri roared in anger "that is not what happened!... Well, not in the way you said it" she added realizing that Maia described the situation in a different way.

The Tengu chuckled "you know fox, you're a hypocrite. You like to toy with everyone's emotions, but you don't like it when someone toys with your's".

Grey immediately grabbed Ahri by the waist as she tried to jump on Maia and choke the life out of her.

The Nine tailed Vastayan started struggling against Grey's hold trying to reach Maia, who was looking at her nails.

After Ahri calmed down, Grey let go of her and looked at the Tengu "what do you exactly want from me?" he asked.

Maia smirked "simple, after our little battle, I realized something" she said and pointed at him "I proved that I'm a great hunter, but you managed to beat me, and I know that you've been holding back. Rengar can say whatever he wants, but the best hunter, is you. Once I defeat you, that title will be mine" she said with a crazed grin.

"So you seek the best hunter?" Grey questioned and shook his head "then you're wasting your time following me. The title 'best hunter' belongs to someone else" he said turning around and began to walk away.

Maia raised an eyebrow "oh, and who is it?".

The Abyss Watcher stopped and looked over his shoulder "simple... It belongs to the Moonlight Hunter" he replied and they all looked confused at the unfamiliar title "we'll explain what happened tomorrow, just know that she isn't someone to trust" Grey told the ones that don't know what Maia did before he walked away with Ahri, Aki, Nidalee, Xayah and Rakan.

Ahri sighed "I still think we should kill her" she said and then looked at the lovers "anyway, we should get back to our room".

"Yeah, us too" Xayah nodded and looked at the bags with Rakan "I don't think Rakan can hold that stuff for much longer".

"For you? I'd do it for eternity" the charmer replied and Xayah blushed. Rakan then put a hand over Grey's shoulder "besides, it was fun. Maybe next time, I can teach you how to win a woman's heart" he said wriggling his eyebrows.

Grey looked at him in confusion. Ahri's eyes widen realizing what the charmer was talking about.

"Oh no, no, no, no, no!" the nine tailed Vastayan said covering Grey's ears and pulling him away from Rakan "No! The fact that he doesn't flirt is part of why he's so lovable. You are NOT going to taint his innocent and honest soul!" she yelled and started pulling the Abyss Watcher by his cape "we're leaving, now!".

"Hey! Watch the cape" Grey protested as Ahri pulled him. Nidalee and Aki followed suit.

Aki went her own way to her own room while the three roommates went to their own.

When they got inside, Grey sat the bags down and his two roommates began taking their stuff.

Ahri unboxed her new game console and sat it on a table in front of the TV "Okay, let's try this thing" she said and picked a few of games she bought to choose from "so what will you two do now?" she asked her roommates while plugging in the console.

Nidalee was setting up the painting she bought on the wall near her room "I'll just stay up a while and go to sleep" she replied.

Grey sat down Silver, who still had the toy sword in his mouth "I... Have some business to take care of, and I might take a while, so don't wait for me" the Abyss Watcher said as he started walking towards the door.

"Alright, be careful" Ahri said as she grabbed a controller and started the game console "now, let's start".

Grey started walking through the hallway, he made his way to the garden and walked inside.

He found it to be quiet with little light, and Zyra wasn't there, but he expected that since it was nighttime.

The Abyss Watcher walked deeper into the garden. He found a clear spot and sat in front of it.

Grey dug a small hole before reaching into his cape. He pulled out Vordt's soul and put it in the hole.

The Abyss Watcher then took out the rose that he bought and put it's roots inside the hole before filling it with dirt.

He just sat there, staring at the rose. This is what his father used to do every time he finished a hunt and got a soul.

An image of that rose covered garden appeared in his head. He remembered how the moonlight would always shine down on it.

He remembered looking at that wheelchair, and the familiar old man in it.

"dear oh dear... What was it?"

That was one of the last few things that he heard his father say. Sadly, it wasn't a moment that his father had his sanity.

Grey looked up at the moon, the garden didn't have a roof, so he had a clear view of the moon.

"I wonder how Tiara is doing" Grey said "she's probably- no, definitely mad that I just vanished" he smiled "and that sun praising moron better not have gone Hollow, he still owes me a drink" he chuckled thinking about his rival.

Grey sat down in the garden for a while, just sitting in silence and staring at the moon.

After some time, he stood up and started walking away. He came out of the garden and made his way back to his room.

The Abyss Watcher entered his room, and looked in surprise to find Ahri still playing and Nidalee sitting besides her.

"You're still playing? I've been gone for more than an hour" Grey asked, but he didn't get a response as Ahri was focusing on the game.

"I'm afraid we lost her" Nidalee said shaking her head "she's hooked".

"I am not hooked" Ahri said not looking away from the screen, which didn't help her case "I can quite any time I- hey! I totally jumped over that!" she yelled in anger.

"Okay, I think that's enough" Grey said walking in "plus, I need the couch to sleep in" he said.

"Just go to my bed and I'll join you when I'm done" Ahri replied hoping to finish her game... And to get Grey to sleep with her again.

"No, now if you won't turn it off yourself, then I'll do it" he said and walked to the console.

The nine tailed Vastayan scoffed with a smirk "yeah right. You don't know how to do it" she said pointing out how Grey doesn't know about technology.

"True, but I do know that if I smashed it with my sword then it would go off" the Abyss Watcher replied.

Ahri gasped "you wouldn't dare" she said and Grey proofed her wrong by pulling his sword and raising it in the air "okay, okay. Just let me save" she said before saving her game and turning it off.

Nidalee stood up "well, guess that's that, see you tomorrow".

"yeah, goodnight" Ahri said as the two females entered their rooms.

Grey sat on the couch and removed his hat before running his hand through his white hair "women" he mumbled. He looked at Silver who was playing with the toy sword by swinging it around. The wolf pup looked at Grey "am I right?".
