IN:
If anything, it was Iris who paid for the dinner. Though it was rather ordered than bought, reserving a table in the far corner for two people. Really, it had this romantic touch to it, he didn't mind, though dinner wasn't going to be served for a couple more hours, so instead, the two bought a can or two of drinks and sat outside on one of the outside tables.

Tri sighed with tiredness as he was relieved he probably didn't have to fight again today. He was pretty tired, he'll also need to get his cloth arm bands repaired. That sound attack kind of ripped it.

"Hey Tri, I've wondered, what do you think of me?", an awkward question, but nonetheless, there was a long pause as Tri looked in her direction. She was leaned back with a vacant expression, showing a lot of thinking.

"Hmmm... You shop a lot, air headed, you like jokes, your favorite food is ice cream and... Well you're my best friend", she smiled and closed her eyes as Tri finished.

"Is there... Anything else?", she inquired. What else? She was a nice person, but she was a little air headed on the side, and the natural, all-girls-shop-a-lot thing. What else was there... Then again he remembered some romance mangas and anime, where the-

BOOM!

His train of thought was now concentrated on the giant knight that stood in front of a crushed wall. The knight stood there, for a few moments, as if waiting for something, and out from behind the knight, pawns had appeared, holding bags with a fancy F on them. They're stealing Forte? Just a petty bank robbery? But it was strange, the knights were headed this way.

"Iris, get inside, I'll take these guys on", but he wasn't so sure about that, when two other knights come from around the corner, with other lightly armored soldiers, with a giant P on their chest plates. The knights were about twice his size, with a large armor. And the pawns were about the same size as him. The people who were outside screamed as they ran inside, and the people on the inside, watched intently as Tri stood outside, his hands sparking thunder as the knights stood silently in front of him.

The knight lifted it's giant sword, and slammed it on the ground were Tri stood, naturally, he dodged with ease, then took advantage to cause the pawns to drop the Forte, by striking them down with a thunder infused fist. Their bodies dissolved into hundreds of pawn chess pieces which eventually collapsed in on themselves, and turned into one, small chess piece. Chess? He was surprised, was this the work of a Speaker? And amongst his thoughts, he realized there was a giant blade hurtling down towards him, gotta dodge. And with that thought, his feet moved on their own to his left, narrowly dodging the shock wave that erupted from the attack. And as Tri dashed backwards, well out of range, two figures rose from behind the knights who sat in the back, giants of no comparation. He realized what they were... The Rooks.

"This isn't good...", he muttered.
