Sparks could be seen in the air as Alina and the katana wolare fest

”Should we break this up?” Lauren asked Queen Mother as the glaring contest continued ”A fight could break out here!”
”Don't worry Alina is just in a bad ht” Queen Mother replied as she ruffled Lara's head ”Let Alina vent her irritations here After all, it's better for her rage to be used here rather than on us, right?”
”Yeah, you are right” Lauren replied as she decided to just stay quiet and hope that nothing will go wrong
But as it turns out, so did actually happen
After 30outside The Hut, Lauren suddenly heard the un all around her
”Woo, oo!”
”No!” Lauren shouted as she recognized what the warning sirens meant ”Why today and why here?”
”Woo, oo!”
”Lauren, what the hell is that warning siren for?” Queen Mother asked Lauren as the warning sirens continued on wailing
”Woo, oo!”
”Wait, you don't know?” Lauren asked Queen Mother as she saw the confusion on her face
”Woo, oo!”
Lauren then looked at Alina and the rest of The Achemists, and Lauren saw that they were just as confused as Queen Mother, as if they do not knohat the warning sirens are for
”All of you… do not knohat the warning sirens are for” Lauren slowly said as she stared at the confused people in front of her ”How could you all not know?”

”Woo, oo!”
”Yes, so here” Lauren replied as she let out a sigh
”Woo, oo!”
As she ignored the sirens, which was starting to grate on her ears, Lauren let out a deep breath as she pointed her fingers at the sky
Her voice sounded broken and timid as she said,
”When a Class S, Class SS, Class SSS, or Class Z threat suddenly appear, warning sirens will indicate their arrival The level of threat will be indicated in the pattern of the warning sirens 1 siren will mean a Class S Threat, 2 consecutive sirens will mean a Class SS Threat, 3 consecutive sirens are for a Class SSS Threat, and 4 consecutive sirens are for a Class Z Threat”
”Woo, oo!”
”We are hearing 3 consecutive sirens here, whichhere at Grand Point City!” Lauren said as she began to tremble in fear ”We, we have no choice but to face that Class SSS Threat here! If not, many innocents will die!”
