"Brother. Have you ever heard the story of the cruel basilisk?"

"No. Is this one of those human fables?"

"Yes but this one is very interesting...you see humanity strived for power, peace and freedom. But to achieve this they need a strong leader who could achieve those goals. So they took the body of a man and replaced his heart with fire from a dragon. Gave him wings from a phoenix. The pride of a lion and the wit of a fox. What they did not realise is that inadvertently they had strengthened the sins within the man by destroying his body thus they created a being. Who would bring both peace and destruction simultaneously. One who could return from death endlessly and disrupt a balance they hadn't been aware of"

"...what a Grimm tale..."
"Haha indeed! But oh so interesting"

"Mrs Abby! Please tell us what happened?" Akira yelled as they sprinted after the feline Faunus dodging branches.

Abby didn't respond just repeated muttering something till they reached a clearing they stood Void a somber look on his face "Where is she? Where is Shina?!" Abby pleaded grabbing his shirt tears in her eyes "Where's my girl!?"

Void slowly pointed to the flowerbed just off to the side of them. "I moved her...and covered her..." Once she looked she saw a female form lying on the ground covered by his jacket and slowly she stumbled to her.

The group were about to follow but Void stopped them "Let her...have a moment..." he said as they heard her blood-curdling screaming before it trickled into loud sobs.

Noaki briefly caught a glimpse of the scene. A fellow Faunus her tail cut in half, bruises coated her once pristine white skin. The carved symbols and tally marks. The strangulation marks on her neck and the damage between her legs...

His blood ran cold and he quickly backed off from the group and began to throw up anything he had eaten. "N-Noaki?" Akira asked running over to him and making sure he was okay leaving Void and Izanami together.

"V... can we talk?" She said staring at him.  "Right now? Probably not the best time..." he said earning a slow nod "Soon?" "I...fine"

"V...void...her necklace...where's her necklace?" Abby asked weakly barely even looking at him "I never saw one...he probably took it..." he saw her shuffling around before tossing something to him and when he caught it he realised it was a chip "Whatever info she learned it's on there...just make sure she didn't die in vain"

Void nodded and was about to take off but was stopped by Noaki "l-let me come with you!" He said earning a confused expression from everyone.

"I have a bone to pick with this Daunter!" He said rolling up his sleeve revealing a faded scar similar to the one on Shina. Void frowned "So it was him who hurt you back then... fine.." Void then looked at the rest of team vain "I and Nami will stay to help Mrs Abby..." Nami looked hesitant as if she was going to say something but nodded "Yeah this seems extremely personal for you guys...we should let you handle it"

Akira quickly made a wood dagger and handed it to her horned lover before hugging him
"Stay safe...please"
Void and Nami stared at each other before Void began to walk away with Noaki behind.

"Stay safe...Void..."

10:45 am
Operation: last hunt.

Rowdy loud music blared through the speakers as the new underground party, drank and grabbed whatever captivates were alone. Booze filled the air and various drugs littered the tables and rooms.
