White Gale and Era of Hell - Tracy's Trial

Tracy only allowed Kathy to get away because Cerbera was there. Otherwise, she would have taught the rapper one or two things, just so she knows better next time she gets on her nerves like this. She wondered what she was whispering to Cerbera. Was it about her? There was no way for her to know. "W..wa--" The kawaii brawler tried to say, but stopped before she could finish her statement. She saw her friend nod at the other girl and heard Kathy's response. The redhead pondered for a opponent just what the other girl could mean by buy them some time. Tracy had an idea of what it could be, but she kept herself from rushing into conclusions.

For the time being, though, she couldnt even think of that. She was too busy, staring back into Cerbera's eyes. Those penetrating eyes... it felt like if she was being judged. Like if her friend could see her deepest secrets with that glare of hers. It was the time to know if everything Kathy said was truth. If Cerbera really despised her the way she said. If Cerbera really didnt care about the White Gale. If Cerbera... was still her friend.

Not a single word came out of her mouth. She only watched the other girl's reaction. Gulping, she looked as her friend offered her a handshake. Now, was she for real? Was this a trick? Probably a test! Something inside her, though, told her to accept Cerbera's hand. And so did she. Her hand would gently grab the other girl's at first. "Cer.. Cerbera... chan?" She muttered softly. "Are you really... going to help us?" Tracy couldnt believe this. Perhaps there was hope, after all...! She'd keep herself from pouncing the other girl, controlling herself in order to avoid hugging her tightlly. She wanted to see if Cerbera had any sort of conditions or requirements in mind.

Cerbera didn't seem like she was joking, she took a firm hold on Tracy's hand. She knew the hardships Tracy had endured and this was the last test, Kathy's words were true but in a way to find a reaction of Tracy, had she walked away from Kathy, would this alliance never have happened but Cerbera did secretly believe in Tracy's power and dedication for a better future.

" Yes, let us join together to fight this new threat. "

Cerbera's words were simple but enough to make her point known to Tracy, there were no special requirements nor anything like that that would make this alliance on sided, though it interested Cerbera how this would turn out, Heels and faces helping eachother to fight the greater heels? Certainly, Cerbera would be amused but also because she knew that Sindel still wanted to know Tracy was alright, so it was Cerbera's obligation as a leader to take care of her members, no matter the cost.

" For the Era of hell to shine again, we will side with the White Gale to fight the Horus Heresy, however, once this is all done, will we retake our rightful place as the greatest heel faction. "

Cerbera's words were truly inspiring. Tracy has never been this proud of being her friend. Proud and happy, of course. With the White Gale and the Era of Hell working together, they couldnt possibly lose. They should be able to defeat them and bring peace to the AFW once again! And, in the end, wasnt that what Seraphy-chan was trying to do? For a moment, and just for a moment, the redhead felt like if she were getting closer to what her beloved sister once wished. Of course, they'd have to work hard if they really wanted to win!

Tears of joy formed in Tracy's eyes and started to run down her face. It felt... nice to be able to count on her friend when she needed her. She just had to make sure not to disappoint her! After shaking hands with the leader of the Era of Hell, the red haired brawler couldnt keep herself from hugging her dear friend. A tight hug... a hug full of love. "Thank... you... Cerbera-chan..." Tracy muttered before letting out a sigh of relief.

While she'd like this alliance to last forever, she knew that dark and light were two powers that werent supposed to stay together for long. Besides, considering how weakened the White Gale was, it would be just a matter of time before the Era of Hell ended up absorbing them. So, she decided to stick with Cerbera's decision. "You will not regret this, Cerbera-chan..." She whispered softly into her friend's ear.

While Cerbera was against any signs of compassion towards another, mainly because she had a reputation to uphold as an evil kawaii, she would just let Tracy hug her tightly, she even brought her hand up to pat the back of Tracy's head a few times, then she whispered out sweetly to her. " We'll also help you look for Seraphim, if that is what you want. I'm sure Sindel and Sharaiya wouldn't mind aiding. "

Cerbera knew that Kathy would have everything under control while the two agreed on an alliance, hearing Tracy's last words made her actually chuckle out in amusement. " Let's just focus on never regretting anything, alright? " She knew that no matter what Cerbera chose, her members would respect it, they all knew that they were still far from being an actual challenge to the Horus Heresy, they still had the quantity while the Era of Hell had the quality and in the end, numbers beat skill.

Not only was Cerbera giving her hope, but she was also offering her some help to finally find Seraphim. Should she really accept her friend's help? Wasnt she receiving too much in exchange for the little support the White Gale could provide? "R--Really, Cerbera-chan... Are you sure?" Tracy muttered, taking a step back. While she'd truly appreciate some help to do what she wanted to do, she didnt want to waste all of the resources on the search for Seraphim. If they lowered their guard in a war against the Horus Heresy, they could all end up dead. Literally. And Seraphy-chan certainly wouldnt like that, now would she?

Tracy nodded her head. "Y.. yes. You're right. Lets build a better future for the AFW, Cerbera. Lets take down the Horus Heresy!" The brawler pumped her fist up, staring excitedly into her friend's eyes. Little by little, the red haired girl's hopes were becoming a reality. The next step would be to find Seraphim and have her join their forces. With her fighting along them, there was no way they could lose

"Seraphy-chan... I hope you're watching me, from wherever you are. And... I hope you're smiling." Tracy lowly said to herself, letting out a sigh of relief. One incredible hehavy weight off her shoulders. Things and problems were certainly much easier to deal with when your friends are helping you. The redhead had no words to express her gratitude towards Cerbera and the whole Era of Hell.
