"We're going to THE ADOLESCENTS show tonight to get the explosives but guess who's bounced" Saya laughed sarcastically as Sephy and her took off down an alleyway.
"My guess is Marcus, would I be correct?" Sephy laughed back with a subtle shake of her head. Saya nodded and she rolled her eyes.
"Maria wanted him to stay with her" Sephy noticed Saya's drooping facial expression as she said that and her heart kind of shattered.
"Aw didn't you offer to take his place?" She joked trying to lighten the mood but the girl only broke a small smile in response "cmon you're more of a catch than he is" Sephy winked and the girl nudged her in the side.
"You did NOT just say that to me" Saya chuckled "but I think it's time we both give up our fantasies"
Sephy shot the girl a confused look and Sayas eyebrow raised, a smirk appearing on her lips.
"Oh Gray, the three blind mice can see the way you and Marcus eye-fuck"
Sephy gasped but couldn't help but laugh at her explanation, they turned down a bustling road and in the distance they spotted the rest of the group.
"Okay? So let's be two badass independent women tonight and have some funnnnn" Sephy sang shaking her shoulders in a rhythm as if she was dancing.
Saya made the brave decision to lightly slap the back of Sephy's head to tell her to stop it and the pair ended up falling into hysterics.
"You are kidding me. His master, the piety king of lecture town sent you two, without the great leader himself?" Lex said when the girls came into focus.
Everyone else turned to look at them and Sephy cockily tied up her hair with a scrunchie,
"He has his own.... mess to sort out" she said placing her words carefully as she described Maria in the briefest sense.
"Why here?" Saya asked Billy looking towards the heaving show, she was expecting an empty parking lot not a decent concert.
"I already had tickets" he shrugged passing out the tickets in his hand "I was not missing this for some heroic mission"
"Fair play" Sephy giggled taking the ticket with a headbow as a thank you.
"Let's get this over and done with" Lex sighed hanging an arm over Billy's shoulders and rubbing his hair with his knuckles making him scrunch his face in anger.
The group advanced towards the show but Sephy told them to go ahead because she wanted to have a cigarette. Truthfully she was over thinking everything and as everyone was planning their mission she was focused on her own.
She lit up her cigarette and puffed it out into the air closing her eyes to regain her clear mind.
"Mind if I have a drag?" Asked a familiar voice.
Sephy's eyes burst open to watch as Marcus stood before her, she took the cigarette out of her mouth and placed it between his lips biting her own.
"Thought you were too busy with better things" Sephy smirked taking her cigarette back into her mouth.
"Nothing's better than buying explosives from some sketchy man in a metal head show with a serial killer like you" he replied sarcastically booping Sephy's nose.
Sephy slapped him away with a giggle before pushing his shoulders away from her, crushing the cigarette on the floor with the ball of her foot.
"Welcome back, superman"

The room was pretty full, the music building itself up and up until it had become a vibration in their chests. The group stayed huddled as they looked around for the supplier.
Sephy danced through the bodies, jumping on the back of Saya's back playfully making her turn to look at her with questioning eyes.
"Look who decided to ditch the girlfriend" Sephy smirked throwing her thumb in the direction of Marcus who pushed himself through the crowd.
Saya found herself smirking to herself and looking towards her feet to hide it.
"Oi Cactus Jack!" Shouted Lex causing all the group to snap out of their daze to look towards a middle aged man.
The man who went by the name Cactus Jack scanned the young faces and looked towards Lex with a scowl.
"You couldn't meet in a seedy parking lot or a crack squat. Had to be at this freak show?"
Sephy laughed out loud because it's exactly what she had been thinking and it caught the attention of Cactus Jack he glared her way, finally noticing where he recognised her from.
"You psychos!" Cactus Jack shouted pointing in the direction of Sephy "you're hanging with the family slaughterer"
Sephy jumped forward to hurt him but Marcus scooped his arm around her waist and pulled her head into his chest to cover her identity although it wasn't much use anymore.
"I don't deal with baby killers" Cactus Jack said crossing his arms "I'd be in the right mind to blow you up with the damn explosives"
Lex stole a glance towards where Sephy had began to violently shake, he knew she was about to black out so he offered himself as a solo artist, even though the thought terrified him.
"So, Jack's a little uptight- hard to believe. Best give me the cash and I'll get the stuff."
The group battled amongst themselves wondering whether they could put such a task in Lex's hands but soon enough he was free from the group and lead towards a back door.
Petra offered a small hug to Sephy which calmed her down almost instantly they met each other's eyes as Petra told her,
"Clear minds means clear plans" the reminder made her straighten her body and steady her breathing "me and Billy are getting closer" she said sending her a wink before running off towards the stage.
Marcus turned to leave but Sephy caught his bicep and pulled him back. He groaned but yet placed a soothing hand upon her waist.
"I need to get back to Maria"
It annoyed Sephy that he was still thinking about her even when he was touching her waist but she had to remind herself that it's because she was his GIRLFRIEND.
"I've got it" Saya smiled shooting Sephy a look that looked like a thanks "I'll tell her you got caught up with the plan"
Marcus looked at Saya with a worried expression but she rolled her eyes.
"Life is supposed to be enjoyed, Marcus" Saya shouted as she exited the doors leaving Sephy to swing herself round Marcus' shoulders, shouting,
"Cmon THE goddamn ADOLESCENTS are playing"
