The knock that sounded at her door wasn't unexpected. She opened it, ushering the girl inside.
“Sit down. 당신 want something to drink?”
“Something to calm my nerves, please.”
She nodded and went to her cabinet of herbs, remedies, and potions, all homemade.
“Why so nervous? 당신 never are?”
“I know. But I had to get out.”
“You avoided the question.”
The two looked at each other. The older sighed.
“I'll get us refreshments, then 당신 can tell me.”
“Thank you.”
She nodded again, heading to the kitchen. She started a pot of boiling water and set to fixing a snack. Her eyes landed on a crystallized rose and she shuddered.
“You okay?”
“I'm fine.”
She grabbed the tray of 음식 and drinks, setting it on the 표, 테이블 in front of her guest.
“Okay. Tell me.”
“Have a 좌석 first.”
She sighed and took a chair. She looked across from her, to the couch.
“Alright Becca. What's so urgent that 당신 had to come here?”
Becca put the drink she had sipped from down. She forced a smile.
“Have 당신 noticed anything strange?”
“Strange how?”
Becca looked out the window, watching the wildlife around her. She pulled her knees to her chest.
“Strange like...you know you've done something but 당신 can't remember what it was. Like you've been surrounded 의해 enemies but didn't fight them. Like 당신 have a fear of something that 당신 just can't place. A fear that...never leaves your mind, letting 당신 know it's there.”
Becca looked back to her hostess.
“Have 당신 felt like that Dev?”
The 앤젤 looked at her, eyes cloudy.
“I have.”
“So have I. And Erin.”
“What does it mean, Becca?”
“I have no clue, but I think we'll find out soon. Everyone.”
The two sat for a 분 in silence.
“Becca,what if we have become the reason there's so much tension in the team?”
“What do 당신 mean?”
“I've heard a few things. Whispers of conversations. But 당신 apparently had some kind of fall in with Bloodmist.”
Becca blinked.
“Why would I? I don't mind him being anywhere close to the team.”
“I know. That's why I'm confused.”
Becca nodded. She looked at her 앤젤 friend.
“Devin, what have 당신 experienced?”
“Becca, what I say 다음 can not be repeated.”
“I promise.”

Revenge slipped a dagger into his hands. Onlookers watched nervously. Revenge calculated at least three hundred. He couldn't let them get hurt. He couldnt let the girl he loved get hurt.
"Targeting system lock on." he whispered.
The gun was cocked against Holly's head. "Choose who 당신 사랑 more! Who?! Her, 또는 me? This little 암캐, 암 캐 who abandoned you, 또는 the one who stayed with you? All the way through?"
"Targeting System locked." the computer read.
Revenge raised his hand slowly, as if in slow motion. His arm moved forward. The crowd caught it's breath. The handle left his hand and the point sped the thirty yard gap and...
Power Corrupts.
Power Seduces.
