The faint smell of blood lingered in the air and the sound of empty cases of bullets falling to the ground can be heard.

He let out a sigh of annoyance before turning his attention to the pink haired girl who is hiding behind [Name], who doesn't seemed to mind this unfortunate turn of events.

"Luna Wright... is it?" Stanley spoke calmly, putting the gun back to his coat, "Will you join us or do you want to have the same fate as that guy earlier who declined our kind offer?"

She could tell that this person isn't bluffing or lying. However, Luna heard the person earlier calling 'Stanley' a cold-blooded and merciless killer.

He then lit up the cigarette hanging loosely between his lips, "Either way... I don't mind killing another human tonight. The same old thing I'll never get tired of doing."

Putting a hand in front of the younger girl, the h/c haired woman replied, "It would be best for us to not get ahead of ourselves."

Luna glanced at her, seeing that [Name] is the only person she could trust at the moment. Even though she was only revived few minutes ago, the pinkette knew that there is something going on between them and they are a lot closer than it seems.

"Why are you defending her?"

"Any reason why I shouldn't?"

It's clear that Luna is greatly terrified after what she had seen and no matter how [Name] would try to cover it up, they can't escape the fact that Stanley had just committed murder.

A very inhumane act indeed, a conduct that displays an obvious lack of concern for human life. Regardless on what was being said, he is anything but reckless.

Stanley is a soldier who merely follow orders from a person he perceived as a leader. And in this case, it's Xeno Houston Wingfield.

By some amazing timing, the man of the hour had arrived and quickly deduced that his second-in-command had already done his job with outmost excellence.

"Should I kill her or not?" Xeno heard Stanley whispered to himself, "Time is running out and so is my patience."

His dark orbs saw [Name] holding a rifle in her left hand, ready to shoot them if necessary. Now that is suspicious. She would actually hurt them in exchange for this teenage girl?

Before the situation could escalate further, he interjected, "Don't be like that, we need to sort this in a civilized way possible."

A chuckle emitted from him, curious on why his childhood friend would go to extreme lengths to protect Luna, "If you refuse our help... you can flee, though I can't guarantee your safety outside our territory."

"I-"

"No need." [Name] cut her off, e/c colored orbs staring directly at the two men in front of her, her voice completely devoid of emotion, "She's staying with me, that's all."
