It only took one bullet to enter chase's chest.

One bullet to crack their ribs and to rip through their lungs.

"Sweets!"

"Oh- oh I fucking hate that- that name" chase hacked up some blood, spitting it onto the ground and fell into Jakes arms.

"Little cub!" Too many voices.

Jake was yelling, so was menhit. They needed the voices to shut up.

___

Two hours before.

"We're what?" Chase asked menhit and the now visible khonshu

"We're stopping a black market deal take place, little cub" menhit repeated.

"Let me guess, missing ushabti?"

"Missing Egyptian scroll, depressed one" khonshu stated.

"Why?"

"It depicts gods using avatars and how to trap them in the avatar. If it gets into the wrong hands little cub, every avatar is at risk" menhit explained and chase sighed, then looked to Marc.

"Well. Fist of khonshu and warrior of Menhit. What can go wrong?" Chase said meekly. They knew something was going to go wrong. They just didn't know what.

"Where is this black market sale happening then?" Marc asked, crossing his arms.

"Tonight. At the London casino" menhit stated.

"....fancy clothes then" chase stated.

___

"Huh…did you know there's vibranium being sold there too tonight?" Chase asked, swiping through their phone and adjusting their dress every so often each time Marc went over a bump.

"Ack remind me why I wore a dress again?" Chase grumbled out.

"Because you asked Steven and he liked the dress"

"Marc they look amazing" Steven said through the car mirror.

"Steven says you look amazing, by the way. For the second time tonight"

"That's it. That's it he's trying to fluster me." Chase grumbled out, "oh here we go. 'the scroll of the avatars and gods' sounds great already" chase started.

"Sounds fantastic" Marc grunted out

"Oh that's not the best part. 'the scroll can and will allow you to trap gods inside the bodies of avatars to kill and or use as puppets' these Egyptians took the piss." Chase huffed out

"They were scared of the powers our avatars held" menhit explained.

"Well, considering how harrow used to take souls to feed a bloody crocodile lady I'm not surprised" chase stated, "are we expecting Jake to make an appearance tonight?"

"It depends if it gets out of hand" Marc said. Quickly glancing over to Chase who nodded.

"And can you please tell him to stop calling me sweets? It's annoying"

"That's why he keeps calling you it. He likes the way it annoys you, chase just ignore him, he's like khonshu. Actually those two are suitable together." Chase snorted in amusement.

"Yeah I can see why"

"Going back to a conversation we had a while back. Can an avatar hold more than one god?" Chase asked, their lips now pulled into a thin line.
