"So. It's you guys."

Impossible.

It should have been impossible.

Tendril stared ahead in disbelief.

Gorgo shouldn't be here. Their Warden should've been in the Central District attending the Warden's Summit. He should not have returned for another twelve hours. How did this happen? Did something occur during the summit that he couldn't predict? Something that concluded things early? Or perhaps, even worse, was his plan tipped off? Pimickie's face briefly flashed through his mind and for a moment he was beside himself with fury.

Calm down. Don't jump to conclusions.

Gorgo cracked his neck. The keys on his utility belt jingled. The handgun in its holster nearly slipped out.

"Let's make this quick. I didn't ditch the Summit just to miss the season finale of Boi Boys because of you lot."

Before Gorgo could finish his sentence, Ballsy leapt forward in front of them, "Stand back—!"

She crossed her arms over her chest, her open palms facing them on both sides of her head. A collection of yellow and purple balls emerged from her skin, hovering and swirling around them like solid bubbles. The bubbles swallowed into each other, mixing with one another until it formed an opalescent globe over their heads.

Gorgo took a single step forward, and Ballsy threw her bubble down. The instant it collided against the concrete, the bubble blossomed into a bulb of smoke.

"Ten, are we doing it?" From the corner of his eyes he could see Ballsy's silhouette turn towards him. That single action reignited the fire within his heart. Even if this might be the worst case scenario, it was still a situation he and Ballsy made contingencies for.

"That's right." He gritted his teeth together. "Everyone. Protect Ballsy!"
