ACT 25

Lissandra exited the kitchen with a cup of coffee before settling beside Sejuani, who is currently channel surfing yet again.

"Not a single good show?" Lissandra asked, taking a sip from her coffee.

Sejuani shook her head. "None at all."

Riiing!

Lissandra placed the cup down the coffee table before reaching over to her left and answering the ringing telephone.

"Hello?"

"Watch the news channel now!" Lux literally shouted through the speaker, her voice sounding urgent.

"Sejuani, news. Now."

Without missing a beat, Sejuani entered the specific channel number for the news.

"Breaking News!" Janna Styrian and Draven Nekros greeted them and all the present TV viewers through the screen.

"Just moments ago, our news team had arrived at Grump Avenue where a horrible car crash had occurred. Apparently, there was an illegal drag race going on that time and an unfortunate civilian vehicle have fallen victim to a crash." Janna began the report.

A short video showed the wreckage on the screen. Lissandra and Sejuani's eyes widened, instantly spotting the white totaled Porsche a short distance away from a muscle car with a wrecked hood.

"Is that...?" Sejuani trailed off.

"It can't be..." Lissandra breathed out.

"We've retrieved videos capturing the scene, including the traffic cam tape."

Janna disappeared, and a traffic cam video came up. Due to the advance technology in Valoran, courtesy of Piltover, the video's resolution is as clear as day.

The two watched as the white sports car was just about to cross the intersection when the Mustang came out of nowhere and practically rammed the Porsche off the road, causing it to skid wildly towards the sidewalk. Lissandra flinched while Sejuani jumped when they saw the Mustang hit the driver's side.

"The driver of the Mustang has been apprehended and is currently in police custody with minor injuries." Draven said, coming back to the screen with Janna sitting beside him. "The victims of the crash who were inside the Porsche are... Ashe Avarosa and Katarina Du Couteau... Hey! I know these people!"

They heard a low thump sound and saw the table rock on screen. Janna had kicked Draven from under the table.

"Ahem," Janna cleared her throat and the camera zoomed in on her. "Miss Avarosa and Miss Du Couteau have been recently taken to Valoran Medical Center."

The camera zoomed back out, revealing a now serious-faced Draven. "Yes, and based from the latest update, Miss Avarosa's condition is critical when they had extracted her from the crash, while Miss Du Couteau is currently having her less urgent injuries taken care of."

"More news and updates later on." They chorused.

Lissandra abruptly snatched the remote and turned it off. She tossed the remote aside and stood up, walking towards their shared walk-in closet with Sejuani trailing after her.

"Dress yourself, Sejuani. We're leaving."

Sejuani grabbed a pair of jeans, a long sleeve shirt and a jacket. "Way ahead of you."

Katarina squirmed on the examination table, making the doctor, Soraka Astron, sigh for the second time. She had already finished with Katarina's other minor injuries.
