{Lukas POV}
"Hello Everyone!" I greeted everyone whilst entering the dining room. Soon, everyone stopped talking and turned to me
"Oh, hey Lukas!" Jessica was the first to greet me back with a soft smile on her face that makes me really nervous and awkward, especially remembering about our previous meeting and Petra's Sly Interruption. That's Petra, always a sly and playful girl but a good friend to all of us
"Hey Lukas, you're back and quick too" Jesse said who's sitting next to Petra and Ivor with his feet on the table. Oh what? like Jesse has a manner. He do has some manner but slightly considering how calm he is. Just like His Sister but she has more manner and nicer than her brother. That's why I liked about her
"Yeah, i rode my horse. So that's why i was here so fast" I told them, rubbing my back
"Blonde Guy, Long time no see!" Ivor exclaimed, why is he still calling me like that!? It's always have been like since a long time
I decided to ignore it and casually replied to Ivor "Oh hey, Ivor"
"Hey take a seat, Buddy!" Petra invited, gesturing to the empty next to where Jessica was sat
"Okay" I accepted her Invitation gratefully as I walked towards the empty seat to sit next to Jessica which makes the surroundings around me and Jessica feels... is awkward the right word to put it correctly?
"So, Where's the others by the way? I didn't see em" I asked them, gesturing to the empty seats
"Oh, They're on the way here. They just need to do some finishing touch for their job as quickly as they can" Jesse answered
"Oh, okay then" I responded by nodding in understanding. Olivia was probably still on her Red Stone Engine Project back in Redstonia and Axel was probably blowing away some challenging Grievers back in Boom Town. Jack and Nurm were probably still working on charting new maps and piecing them together to make a big map. Stella was probably still managing Champion City Administration. And Binta is probably still directing The Fred's People on building their New Colony near Beacontown
I shook my thoughts away as I looked at the sun clock hanged on the dining room wall. It's already four in the afternoon
About an hour later, everyone else has arrived in the room and sat down on their seats of choice. The new members that includes Jack and Nurrm along with our companion/allies were even here too. We were having a nice dinner, conversations with the others, and lots of laughter. It was a joyful day and a moment to be remembered forever in our life. But then after the dinner Jesse, Ivor, Jack and I were talking in the treasure room while the others were still in the dining room probably still conversing with everyone else
"Well, that was a nice dinner, Jesse. Glad you invited us all" I complimented and thanked Jesse, grateful for this dinner that he hosted for all of us
"Yeah, it's nice to get together with everyone by dinner and gettin' to know each others too" Jesse said. I nodded in agreement. I then glanced at Ivor. He's wearing His Ninja Suit, even for this kind of commotion?
"Umm, Ivor why are you always wearing your Ninja suit? Even at Dinner?" I asked Ivor, Confused by why's he wearing that Outfit rather than his old Outfit for casual occasion. Instead he wore the outfit that he used in combat. He crossed his arms sighed
"I already told you! from now on I'm a Ninja!" He said as he showed us some of his cool ninja moves "Besides, who said that I wear this suit everytime and everywhere? I used my old clothes when at home and town. I just wanted to show off right now" He stated proudly
"Nice Moves you got there, Ivor" Jack said, giving him a thumb
"Yeah, Ivor. And please don't pull your smoke boom and throw it at us. It stunk" Jesse warned him by pointing a finger at him "What did you put in those bombs anyway? He then asked Ivor
"Hah! I wouldn't" He said winked "Maybe" he snickered then. Jesse looked annoyed by him but nevertheless he ignored him. WE ignored him "And as for what I put inside these bombs, it's a secret. Only a Ninja and an Alchemist can only know about this" he explained about his smoke bombs
I decided to change the mood of the conversation by changing its topic "All things have changed again for the better. Thanks to you Jesse, All the members reunited like the old times and we even got some new members. Who knows what adventures lies in the near future" I said to Jesse with a smile. Jesse responded to me by smiling proudly
"Yep, I'm doing this for every one of you guys" Jesse said, There's something in his tone that makes him a little bit odd but obvious at the same. Fortunately Jack noticed it and he smirked slyly at Jesse
"Ohhh, is someone in LOVE? Cuz' i can sniff it from here" Jack teasingly nudged Jesse with his shoulder. Jesse sighed as he gave in
"Okay Jack, you got me. I have a crush on Petra. Happy?" Jesse said casually without hesitating. Wow, he's bold. I gotta give that to him
"Hah! I knew it! My Ninja skill can even senses it too!" Ivor exclaimed, pointing a finger at Jesse. Me and Jesse rolled our eyes at him, clearly unamused while Jack looked at Ivor weirdly
"Geez, please stop doing that" I tried to defend Jesse eventough it looks looks I didn't even attempt hard enough to defend him but somehow this got both Ivor and Jack to stop
"Okay, fine" Ivor said rubbing his back, then he turned to Jesse with a serious look "By the way Its time for us to talk about 'thing', Jesse" Ivor said with a blank and serious expression
"Oh, yeah right! about that..." Jesse said, clasping both hands
"May i ask what's this 'thing' is?" Jack asked them both curiously. Okay I'm also intrigued about this 'thing' they wanted to talk about. From the change of demeanor
"Yeah, what is it?" I asked them both, curiously
"So here what i was going say, We're planning for... " Ivor paused a while as his seriousness faded away into excitement "...The Order's Night off! Since we worked hard a lot everyday... why not take some relaxing Night Off eh?" Ivor announced as he winked
"Sounds pretty compelling to me" Jack said, sounding enthusiastic and cool at the same time
"Yeah, totally" i agreed with him enthusiastically
"But, what exactly are we goin' to do and where" Jack asked them for more clear info on The Night Off
"Oh, I've scheduled us all to watch the newest show on Beacontown's theater" Ivor told us. Show? What kind of new show the Town's Theater has in store for us to enjoy?
"Yeah, the newest show is all about us and especially dedicated to us, Obviously. The show will be called 'The Hero of Beacontown'" Male Jesse explained to us except for Ivor who already know about it
"That's great. All the member will be in the movie" i said, totally in for this Movie Night. Then a question popped in my mind but was uttered by my mouth "Then why you didn't tell the others back in the dining room?" i asked them curiously
"Yeah, why?" Jack said, curious on that matters too
"Because y'know? Everyone love surprises. Obviously, duh" Ivor answered me with a 'duh' expression
I grinned at that "Whoa, you got some surprises there Ivor" I complimented him
"Yeah, because I'm a Ninja now!" He exclaimed proudly. Then he looked at the Sun Clock "Oh it's time for me to go! see you later at my Pad at 08.00 PM!" We all nodded at that. Then Ivor pulled out something that neither of us wanted to see "SMOKE BOMB!" Ivor exclaimed as he threw the bomb on the floor, making smoke screen that makes us can't see anything and coughing up a bit because of the smoke as Ivor suddenly disappear. But when the smokes dissipated, He was nowhere near us. But then I heard creaking noise from the Exit. We turned around to find him sneaking through the exit. When he notices that we're looking at him, he looks like a deer caught in a headlight
"Ack! You just Saw nothing..." he whispered as he sprinted like a Ninja to his 'Lovely Lava Pad' that he called home
Jesse chuckled "Heh, the same o' Ivor but with a pinch of Ninja Skill" He remarked
"Yeah, whoo" I said, swaying my hands around as if the smokes were still here
"Welp, glad that's over with. i have to go back first to my Podium. Nurm is currently taking care of the podium while I was gone with Archie. See ya at Ivor's pad" Jack bid goodbye to us and waved goodbye at us as he left the room using the exit door
"See ya!" Jesse and I waved him back goodbye
"Heh, it's sure see everyone's havin' fun, huh? " I said, chuckling
"Yeah, I'm doing this for everyone" Male Jesse said proudly. I patted him on his back, proud to be his friend and proud to be The Architect of The New Order of Stone
"Yeah that's the right thing to do to lighten up our life. For your Friends and Families" I agreed with. Jesse nodded and smiled
"Yeah Lukas. Let's go find Radar. I have something for him" Jesse said as we walked to the door to find Radar
