Mitch's POV

************

I placed the phone down on the bed and let it ring. Jerome sat beside me, waiting for the person to answer, this could be the most important phone call of our lives... in a way.

The person finally picked up the phone.

This is the FBI headquarters, I'm guessing you are agent Mitchell Hughes?

"Yeah, and Agent Jerome Aceti is here too."

Ah, the agents we needed, have you gotten any lead on the sorcerer?

"That's not why we called you."

What may be the reason then?

"Me and Jerome, were don't want to do this anymore, we quit. SetoSorcerer is not a sorcerer. He is our friend."

You...quit?

"Yeah, being secret agents just doesn't suit us, we found a job outside of us which we love more."

Makes sense, ok Mitchell Hughes, and Jerome Aceti, you are dismissed.

"Thank you, but can I ask you one last favour?"

Go for it

"Can you leave Seto alone? He is settling down, he has a wife, he doesn't want any trouble. Can you just look for someone else?"

We will try, but I can't promise you anything

"Thank You, goodbye"

Goodbye, enjoy life away

I pressed hang up on the phone, we both sighed and smiled.

"That went easier than expected." I said to him, Jerome nodded in response.

"I guess they just had too many agents."

I stood up and shoved my mobile phone on my pocket.

"Right, let's upload the explanation videos up onto our channels, and go out, we need a celebratory meal." I suggested.

"Sounds good to me." Jerome replied, running off into his room.

I walked over to the computer, and pressed upload on the video that sat waiting.

It explained everything, the FBI, Team Crafted falling apart, Ty and the coma, what we did to Seto. I explained that we are forgiven, and that we are friends again.

I grabbed my wallet and sat on the couch, after a while, Jerome came down the stairs, hugging me a thumbs up.

We decided to just head to a restaurant, we hadn't been anywhere for ages, so this was a big deal.

We set out, and decided to walk to the restaurant, getting some fresh air while we were at it.

After a while, I spotted Seto and his wife walking along the road, she didn't look good at all, she looked ill.

Seto held her up, looking at her every so often with so much worry in his eyes. At least he cares.

"She doesn't look well." Jerome said. I nodded in agreement, I saw that Seto looked exhausted, and the girl's eyes started to droop.

"Stay here, I think she's gonn-" I said, running across the road towards the pair, the girl fell from Seto's grasp, and I managed to catch her before she hit the floor."

Seto panicked when she fell, but gave a sigh of relief when he saw me holding her.

"Thank you Mitch." He said, I looked at him, he didn't look do good himself, he looked tired. No wonder he wouldn't have been able to catch his wife in time.

"No problem, I could tell that was going to happen, it wasn't your fault." I said to him, gently handing over the girl to him, he picked her up and held her bridal style.

"Thank you" he said once again, and I ran off back to Jerome, I looked back over and found Seto walking off, carrying her gently.

"He cares so much about her." I said to Jerome, he nodded in response.

Jerome looked at me, giving me a look.

"Do you think she has..." He did an action that described what he was talking about.

"Oh, maybe." I said, she could have that, she has all of the symptoms for that.

We walked on and carried on with our day, going to ask them about it later.
