  When they finally got back to Josh's house it was dark and his parents were definitely home. Liv's car was still in the driveway, which probably looked super weird to his parents. It was a good idea earlier that day when they decided not to take it just in case something illegal happened while they were on their mission, but now Josh's parents were confused as fuck. Josh had missed 8 calls from his mom and 6 from his dad and his mom had even left a voice mail that went,

"Joshy, hey sweetie, I was wondering why Liv's car is here but neither of you are? I know you're 23, but I was just curious. Okay, I love you! Bye!"

"Shit...my family's home." Josh muttered as they slowly approached his house. "We can't just go inside."

"Sure we can, just climb through your bedroom window like last time." Wolf said.

"How about we just go back into your little sewer lair or whatever." Liv suggested. While the sewers were disgusting, at least it was more discreet than planning a mission in Josh's bedroom. Climbing into the sewer made Josh paranoid because he was worried about a couple things: 1- what if his parents saw and put him in a mental institution for looking insane, 2 - what if a giant mutant spider got him, and 3 - what if the ladder was wet and he slipped and fell and died? Thankfully, none of those things happened as they all made it down into their new designated secret lair. Maybe they really were the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

"I'll tell you that right now, it'll be hard to separate humans from Biotics." Tiger said, beginning to pace around as she formulated a plan in her head.

Wolf was already starting to make it look like a lair, he'd already hung weapons on the walls and from the ceiling and was setting up some sort of torture chamber for when they caught a Biotic. "I could go Call of Zion on them. It'll be messy, but it could work?" Wolf suggested.

"Can you two get everyone you work with in one room so we can flood it?" Tiger asked seriously.

"No, we can't do that." Josh said.

"Hm, can't or won't?" Tiger put her hands on her hips.

Josh scoffed. "I dunno, both? I thought that point was to catch a Biotic alive and get them to tell us where we can find their TTD?"

"Yeah, so we have to weed out the humans from the Biotics, humans are weaker so they die first. The Biotics will be left standing and then you can," Wolf drew a line across his neck. "Take 'em all out except for one. Then the torture starts." He looked excited.

"Isn't there a way we can do this without killing people? Like a light, non-lethal dosage of poison?" Liv suggested.

"Biotics are immune to poison," Tiger said, thinking it through. "I mean, we could gas the vents, but I don't know, that's too risky."

"Ingestibles are safer." Wolf said. "This place is thick with sewer mushrooms," he looked around as he pulled on a chain he'd been setting up, making sure it would hold. "A couple seconds after eating one of those and you'll puke and shit yourself and wake up with little to no memory of what happened. Learned that the hard way twice...I think."

Tiger grabbed a chain that was dangling from the ceiling and started to loop it around a metal chair they must have found out on the street, they looked like they were making a homemade electric chair. "I dunno, too many variables, it would work if they were all in the same place at the same time eating the same thing."

Liv looked at Josh and shook his arm as it dawned on her. "Josh! The Kronish Ball!" She exclaimed.

Josh lit up. "Oh my God, Liv you're a genius! Guys, our company party is this weekend. Everyone gets dressed up, there's an open bar and tons of food and the best part is that at the end, Kronish gives this big speech and it ends with everyone eating a Kronish ball. They're like little chocolate truffle balls." He explained.
