Ace and Ezra got back at afternoon.

Ace head back to the dorm and into his room.

Ace: Need to rest...

Ace lays down on his bed, and starts to look at the ceiling.

He remembered that tonight is the ball, and the person who wants to meet him is going to wait at the center of the town.

Ace also realized that he lost half of his memory when fighting against Merlone.

Ace: I guess he appeared again. He is the only one capable of doing such a feat.

Ace gets back up and took a shower.

He then changes into new clothes.

Ace: Now then.... where is this ball gonna take place.

Ace forgot that the last time he went to the kingdom, is when he was with Ash.

Ace hurried and ran towards town.

Julie: Ace, what's the rush?

Ace stopped and talked to Julie.

Ace: Good timing! Do you know where the kingdom where the ball is gonna take place tonight?

Julie: If you're talking about the ball, then it's probably in the kingdom of Garlunica which is approximately 50 miles from here.

Ace: Is there a transportation that's headed there?

Julie: There is one. Back at the town, there is Eagle carriage that can take you there in minutes.

Ace: Good.

Ace suddenly carried Julie.

Ace: Lead the way, Julie.

Julie was embarrased and her face is red.

Ace: What's wrong Julie? Are you sick?

Julie: N-No. Okay, head over there.

Ace: Alright!

Ace ran towards town while carrying Julie.

***
After 10 minutes of finding, they finally found a carriage..

Ace: Nice. Thanks for the help Julie.

Julie: O-Of course, if you need any help, just ask me. And one more thing..

Ace: What is it?

Julie: Y-You can put me down now.

Ace: R-Right.

Ace puts down Julie and hopped inside the carriage.

Ace: Alright! Head towards the kingdom mister!

Person: Okay.

The huge eagle flapped its wings and flew straight towards the kingdom.

Julie: What is he going to do there anyway?

Suddenly, a note was left behind.

Julie: He must've dropped this.

Julie read the letter and was surprised on who the person that wrote it.

Julie: What does she want with Ace...?

***

Meanwhile..

Ace was enjoying the view from above.

Ace: This transportation is pretty neat.

Person: I'm glad you like it, young boy.

Ace can see the whole town up there.

***
After 5 minutes...

They stopped at the outskirt part of the town.

Person: This is my stop.

Ace: Thanks mister.

Ace gave the person a gold coin.

Person: My! This is really valuable! Are you sure you're going to pay it to me?

Ace: Yes. I had tons of those things back at my room.

Person: Thank you very much, boy.

The person departed and headed straight back home, while Ace head towards the town.

Ace looked around and people are are wearing expensive suits. And all of them are headed straight towards the castle.

Ace head on to the center of town and waited.

Suddenly, a person wearing a hood confronted Ace.

The person hold Ace's hand and ran towards the alley.

Ace: What are you-!

The person kissed Ace.

Then suddenly, royal guards were patrolling the area.

Guard 1: Did you see her?

Guard 2: No.

Guard 3: Search over there.

The guards left and went to the other areas of town.

The person stopped on kissing Ace.

Person: That was close..

Ace: Who are you? And what was that for?

The person took of its hood and revealed a girl.

Ace remembered that it was the girl who was with Julie when he saved them back then.

Ace: It's you!
