Chapter 08 - Lost Chance
Natashfa threw her stressball into the air for the nth time and caught it, repeating the same process over and over again as she listened to the beats of the machine strapped onto Sotiangco to keep track of his heartbeats.
The silence inside the room and the steady beats of the machine was lulling her to sleep, and she can't have that. Emman went out to get some food while they wait for Sotiangco to wake up, and also for the others to come back.
She perked up when a slight change from the machine's steady beats came up, but it didn't last for long, and soon, it came back to it's dull, steady rhythm. Emman didn't come back for the next 13 minutes, Natasha knew, she was counting. Emman brought some milkshake and sandwich for the both of them, vanilla milkshake for himself and melon for Natasha.
"If you didn't become a police officer, what would you be and why?" Emman suddenly asked. Natasha looked at him weirdly as she took a bite from her sandwich.

A century is a very long time but I can still remember the day they banished us to this cursed place like they're throwing used ragdolls, while they enjoy the beauty and warmth of the City of Light," Zuriel Princeton said, an amused expression evident on his face as he surveyed his Dark Council. "Well what do you reckon should we do about it?" Mikhail Alvarez asked his superior as he leaned back on his seat. Zuriel looked at him with his cold mismatched eyes and smiled. "It's time for them to step down don't you think? It's time to take back what was originally ours," he said. "And how exactly will we do that?" One of elders asked. "Yeah, what's your plan?"

When The Light Falls Chapter 06 - Welcome To The Team
They went to a health facility to perform an in-depth exam on Mr. Red Sweatshirt to know if he really was a Dark Yoza, he was also quietly muttering nonstop about suing them, they turned a deaf ear, mostly because they have no alibi other than the tip that they received. So if this turns out to be a hoax then they could kiss positions good bye. Upon arriving to the facility, Knoxx opened the door and pulled the guy out, closely followed by Camden. Natasha still had her restriction charm on but she will have to stop using it soon, or it will drain her Maho, so they had to get in sooner. The Yozas that they passed were all looking at them weirdly as they brought the guy in, Arielle helped Emman walk in too, as he was still kind of loopy from too much spellwork. They brought the guy directly to Genevive Bautista's office which was in the third floor and was welcomed quite not too nicely. Camden forced the guy and himself to duck when Knoxx opened the door

Leala's voice echoed out through the hall."B-Beatrice," the yoza gulped before continuing. "Beatrice Coleman," she finished."Fight me, Beatrice," Leala said and removed her sword from it's hilt, the resulting shing that the metal made as it was removed from it's container made everyone gulp, but no one dared to move an inch to help Beatrice, who would want to take Leala's anger and annoyance to themselves?
