The Void Entity Saga

Part 4

*The door of a bar then opens up with a tan skinned girl with white hair and green eyes wearing a brown leather biker jacket, a black crop top and pants walks out holding a baseball bat*

???: Hey! What was that for!? You didn't have to bang on the freaking ATM man!

Archon: Sorry. Just, frustrated.

???: Frustrated? About what?

Archon: Well I forgot my credit card. The credit card I have is in my other wallet I left back home.

???: Well that's er... Unfortunate.

Archon: Yeah it's just so damn frustrating! *Punches the ATM again*

???: HEY STOP THAT ALREADY! *Sighs* If it makes you feel any better, you can stay at my bar for the night at my bar. On one condition.

Archon: Huh... what's that condition then?

???: I need your help.

Archon: Help with what exactly?

???: I need your help clearing up and cleaning my bar duh. It's all messy after those guys messed it up after getting too drunk. Ugh, the nerve!

Archon: I suppose that wouldn't hurt for a place to stay until I get my credit card back.

???: Definitely better sleeping on the streets or on a tree.

Archon: Yeah.

???: So come on in big guy. *Walks into the bar*

Archon: Hey-

???: What? Is there something wrong with saying something that's true? *Laughs* The names Lily by the way. Nice to meet'cha. *Extends her hand to shake*

Archon: I guess, your right. *Chuckles* My name is Archon.

Lily: Archon? Sounds like your some hotshot arent'cha?

Archon: Hmm... *Looks down deep in thought*

Lily: Haha! Hey! I'm kidding! Your names actually pretty cool. I wouldn't mind having that as a first name at all!

Archon POV: She thinks my name is... cool? That's... different. A good kind though.

Archon: Thanks. Appreciate it. *Looks at the mess in the bar* You weren't kidding that it was a mess...

Lily: Am I right!? Geez, the nerve of some people!

Archon: I guess it's time to get cleaning.

Lily: Yep! You can start with the tables and the counter. I'll be sweeping the floors and wiping the windows. *Hands him a table cloth*

Archon: Sounds like a plan. *Takes the table cloth*

*The two then begin cleaning up the bar without much issue*

Lily: Say, your doing quite the nice job for yourself.

Archon: Thanks. I've been learning. Your not bad yourself.

Lily: Yeah, I mean, I had to take of it on my own since I was a little bucko.

Archon: Bucko? You mean as a kid?

Lily: Eh, along the lines of that.

Archon: Why is that?

Lily: Well, I don't really know my mom and my pops died on me when I was young. So I kinda inherited a lot of things.

Archon: Like this bar?

Lily: And his debt... Way, way too much debt... *Scratches her head*

Archon: That must be tough...

Lily: Eh, yeah. I can handle it though. I'm a big girl now. I can handle myself.

Archon: Sure you can.

Lily: Hey! I can tell there's a separate meaning to that!

Archon: I'm just saying, sometimes you need help. Like right now.

Lily: I-I... Yeah I guess your right...

Archon: It's good to ask for help every now and then. I should make that a habit... *Takes a deep breathe and finishes cleaning up* All cleaned up.

Lily: Hey, not bad! Not bad at all! You can sleep on the couch over there for tonight. I know it's not the biggest but I hope it'll do the trick.

Archon: I think it should.

Lily: Good to know. I'll ask around to see if there's any places you can rent for cheap.

Archon: I'd like that. I'll help along the way.

Lily: Heh. *Closes up the doors of the bar* Well, it's getting quite dark out. Wanna have a beer or alcohol before bed? Don't tell me your all big and muscly just to be weak to alcohol. Hehehe~

Archon: No I'm not weak to alcohol at all.

Lily: Then come on and grab a beer! It's on me! You did great anyway!

Archon: Heh. I'll take you up on that. *Walks to the counter*

Lily: *Dashes to the other side of the counter* So whaddya want? Any specifics?

Archon: A cup of wine would be nice.

Lily: I'll be right there! *Rushes into a room and comes out with a bottle of beer and a bottle of wine* Here ya go! *Hands Arching the bottle of wine* And here I go! *Opens the bottle of beer and drinks it up* Ah~

Archon: *Chuckles lightly and drinks his wine*

Lily: *Yawns* Ahhhhhhh~ Geez, I'm beat.

Archon: We literally just started...

Lily: Eh, but I wake up at like, 4am to start fixing up and readying the bar for tomorrow.

Archon: And you sleep at this time? That's unhealthy.

Lily: The bar ain't gonna clean itself. *Chugs down another bottle of beer and burps* Hehe~ You get used to it after needing to do it do long. *Stands up* I'll see ya tomorrow morning I suppose. Well, *stretches* guess it's better than waking up alone. Nighty night!

Archon: Goodnight to you.

*Archon then watches as Lily walks out of the counter and into her room*

Archon: Hardworking she is. *Spins the bottle of wine and chugs it down* Ah... Full of spirit even in bad times, wish I was like that when I was younger. *Sets the bottle of wine down and walks to the couch before laying down on it and sighing* This, I can get used to this. Living like a normal man, that sounds fine by me. *Scratches his head and soon falls asleep*
