ETON

Chapter 15.

Liliya and Leo leaped from rooftop to rooftop, they had spent the night on top of low rent buildings and all Liliya wanted to do was get this mission out of the way. Leo so far thought that their boots were the coolest part of the mission and the torture, but he thought the boots were way cooler.

Liliya stopped ahead, a chimney next to her and a window down below. Leo pulled up to her side, blinking away his glowing eyes, he looked down to the narrow alley way. A man bellow them walked to the two story house they were currently perched on, looking to both sides of him before quickly opening the door and slamming it shut behind him.

Leo looked up to the woman perched beside him, remembering the reason he developed a crush on her in the first place, the devilish smile on her face that lit up her features, her lips curling. Her eyes flashed feelings of pain she intended to inflict. He sighed dreamily before shaking away the thoughts of her.

The window underneath the two of them opened. She jumped off elegantly, facing the building as she did, her hands caught the roofs gutter and she swung in, all in complete silence besides the small thumps she made as she landed. Leo chuckled, pulling a small gas mask from a slot on his belt and placing it on. He leaped in after her, landing perfectly on all fours.

Leo looked up to Liliya from the floor. Her wrist slashed, but instead of blood that leaked, a green smoke-like substance took its place, the room filled with the stuff engulfing them. The man the two of them were sent here for lay on the ground coughing.

A bright light flashed from Liliya and her wound closed.

"Must you always do that? You know one day it may be blood instead if you're not careful." Leo chuckled from behind her a drip of sadness mixed in with his humour. They both knew that it was always a possibility.

"If you keep going on about it you'll join him on the floor." Liliya stated from in front of him, tilting her head to smirk at him. His heart fluttered lightly, but he dusted it off, standing up. He raised his hand, his tattoo under his eye started glowing purple. Leo's hair began to stand on end, the roots of it now a faint purple- a lilac colour.

The man on the ground, blinked slowly, drowsily. Falling asleep was just one of the effects of Liliya's toxic gasses. He began to float upwards and towards the window, his body turning to fit out. Leo followed, floating, purple footsteps left in his wake. Liliya simply followed knowing her job was practically over already.

Leo transported the man to the roof and then dropped him harshly down against it. Liliya jumped up, her dress had a tear down the side for a reason, as it would only hinder her movement otherwise.

Liliya took a small tablet from a pouch strapped to her outer thigh and opened it up, holding it out in front of her. The words incoming transmission flashed on the screen followed by a black silhouette.

"The helicopter is inbound; I presume you've caught him?" The voice that rang out was feminine, yet cold.

"Of course." Liliya's tone was cocky; she smirked after she finished talking.

The transmission ended and Liliya placed her tablet back into her pouch. The whirl of the blades was heard before they actually got a line of site on their ride.

!!!~Meanwhile~!!!

Eden carried the grimm around the school halls carefully, checking every corner and hall for other people, after the events that recently occurred she had been given the grimm back to look after, the only problem was that she wasn't actually allowed it, that she knew of. Either way she was too afraid to ask if she could, the last thing she wanted was harm to come to the grimm.
