Angel Monarch

Sera and Cassandra spent the next hours watching a bunch of different channels. At some point they moved from the couch and laid down on the bed. They even asked Maya to make the Holo-screen's projection bigger.

She did so, while watching with a bewildered expression as Sera and Cassandra obnoxiously talked and laughed together.

The bed had a bunch of different bowls all over it, and quite a few of them had spilled their content's onto the nice white sheets.

The leaders' state wasn't much better. They both wore extremely long shirts, that covered their bodies, and it was filthy. They each ate copious amounts of snacks, and at some point they ordered drinks too.

Now the two drank the famous Critter Bite, making them both inebriated. Maya done her work quickly and soon she left leaving the two women to do whatever they were doing.

Inside the room Sera and Cassandra watched some weird drama about a human falling in love with a robot.

This was one of the dramas that were a leftover from before the Apocalypse. It was full of references and jokes neither of them understood, but they laughed anyway. Stay connected via empire

Most scenes were very graphic too, especially the romance, but they just laughed even harder at those.

Nobody, not even the showrunners knew that this drama was actually a porn series from the past. It was so old that even the few individuals who survived both the Last War and the Apocalypse had no idea.

That's exactly why the sex scenes were really graphic, but it wasn't like either Sera or Cassandra cared. They were way too drunk, and just laughed it off as one of the past era's quirks.

"Hey Sera, would you fuck a robot?" Asked Cassandra, with a bit of burp and slurred words.

Her transcended nature was handling the alcohol much better than Sera, who was half asleep already. She turned towards Cassandra with a goofy smile. Her vision was pretty foggy, but it eventually focused on the woman lying next to her.

"Well Cass... If they move like that... Then I would fuck it till it explodes!" She said while making an explosion sound, making both of them burst out in laughter.

"What about you?" She asked after the laughter died down. She was currently devouring a whole chocolate bar, which was about a thousand calories in and of itself, not like it mattered for her metabolism.

"I don't know about that... I'm still a virgin, and starting with something like THAT... I would like David to be my first!" She proclaimed proudly, causing Sera to giggle.

"And why haven't you had sex with him yet... Hmmmm???" As Sera spoke she reached to her side, taking her eyes off the porn. She then proceeded to poke Cass's huge breast, which caused her to yelp in surprise.

"Does he not like your boobs... I think they are a bit too big for comfort, but everyone has their own preferences..." She then continued to poke them, while Cass just chuckled, which made them bouncy.

"It's not them... He will probably love them... We just hadn't had time, with all these things going on, like the hunt..." Before Cass could say anything else Sera placed her poking finger on her lips.

"No speaking of work here! We have FUN here, no work!" She said then burped loudly for emphasis.

"Fine, but then change channels, this much sex is not funny anymore!" Said Cass, causing Sera to grunt in agreement.

She began to cycle through channels. Every drama that went on Cass had already seen, and in her opinion most of them were either boring or contained fight scenes.

When they initially began watching the Holo-screen, she quickly changed channels, because Sera's commentary on how badly choreographed the fights were, was driving Cass insane.

The channels changed until they landed on one of the few news channels. On the screen it showed a large room with a main desk and couches to the side. Five people were there, one ––presumably the host–– was sitting behind the desk, while the other four sat on the couches.

"...I do think that the offensive's success was only partially due to the Deathless Phoenix. What she pulled off wouldn't have been possible without our city's beloved daughter, Cassandra." Said one of the people sitting on the couch.

She was a mature woman, about 50 or so years old. She was all smiles and kindly aura, which Sera instantly determined as fake.

"I don't know about that. Don't get me wrong she definitely was a great help, but we are talking about the Deathless Phoenix here. She is already legendary as only an ascended, just imagine how powerful she will be when she transcends!" This one was a man, with a handsome face.

His voice was deep and also proud. Sera read him like a book, this was another fake personality.

"Oh, I heard a rumor that she will try to evolve by the end of the year!" This one was a younger woman, maybe a few years older than Sera herself.

She seemed to be the only one that acted genuinely, and she looked very bored.

"Who the fuck are these people, and why are they talking about us?" Asked Sera, while the show went on.

"This is a very famous nightly show. The host's name is Morgen and she invites famous actors, politicians, reporters, basically anyone who is a well-known person. She then talks with them about the current news and gossips. It's actually quite fun to listen to!" Answered Cass, her voice much less slurred.

They both were starting to sober up, so they ordered more Critter Bite.

"She host's a night show with the name Morgen? Is this supposed to be a bad joke?" Said Sera with a giggle, Cass chuckled as well.

"Yeah, it's quite ironic, but she is actually a really nice person, not at all like she acts on the show!" Said Cass and turned back to the conversation.

"I wonder how powerful she will become, by the next evolution. What do you think her next power will do?" Asked the same young woman from the man sitting next to her.

"Well, that's purely depends on what she chooses to evolve with. Maybe she will go with something with related to fire, which would in turn empower her flames. Or she could go with something more physical, that would increase her strength." Answered the last person sitting on the couches.

He was an older man, with a wrinkly face and grandfatherly aura. This one seemed genuine as well, even though he looked really uncomfortable with all the cameras pointed at him.

"Who is he?" Asked Sera, while pointing at the elderly gentleman.

"That's professor Collins, he is the most famous scientist in the world. He specializes in evolution, he was the one who helped me choose the specific monsters to evolve with!" Cass seemed to be quite excited to see him on the screen.

He was a very kind and nice gentleman, but he was also very introverted. If Cass didn't have the right family background, he would've never helped her. They are actually good friends and still keep in touch.

Cass noticed Sera's silence, which caused her to look at Sera. Her eyes were narrowed and she seemed to be in deep focus. Slowly a small smile crept onto her alluring face.

"He knows about it too... Interesting..." Sera talked to herself not noticing Cass's weird stare.

"What does he know?" Asked Cass, while looking between the Holo-screen and Sera.

She didn't answer her question and instead sent a quick message to Bran.

Sera: Tell Mary that she should find a person named Professor Collins. He could be great help to us, if she can convince him to help!

Bran instantly answered with a quick 'okay'. He never questioned these kinds of orders, he never really questioned any orders to be honest, but he did ask for specifics a lot of the times.

Cass didn't ask any more questions about what she was doing. Cass just kind of went with the flow, and changed channels to where one of her favorite dramas was playing.

They spent the next few hours watching the Holo-screen, talking, and generally having fun. When the Critter Bite arrived again, they got drunk yet again, but eventually all parties needed to end.

It was well past midnight by the time they became too tired to continue. They didn't even turn of the screen before falling asleep on the same filthy bed.

Sera felt strange throughout the day. It was fun to turn off her brain for once and just do something without any real purpose other than her own leisure.

Unknowingly the previous buzzing that haunted her every waking day, went away. In her drunken stupor she didn't even notice its absence, but deep down she knew and it felt amazing.

Who knew that the cure for insanity is just to simply not care about everything at the same time, and just let go of all your problems for at least a day!

Tomorrow she would go back to work, since that's what she truly loved to do, but she also knew that this wouldn't be the last time when she let go of herself!

With these strange thoughts she fell asleep next to her friend.

At some point David would visit them throughout the night. He would watch them sleep peacefully for a while, then he would place a blanket over the two, and leave them to it.
