No One's POV

M-21 and M-24 stood beside each other at the top of the building trying to clear their heads and focus on what needed to be done "Damn. I didn't expect them to appear so soon. It's just a matter of time until Marie finds out the blonde has nothing to do with the guys that stole the coffin." M-21 said with clenched fists and a drop of sweat roll down the side of his face "She might find out faster than we thought" M-24 added with distaste and worried expression "That guy was the problem" M-24 said referring to the man he turned from before. M-42 looked down angrily until a voice from behind startled them out of their thoughts "Here you are" They both turned around quickly and were utterly shocked to see Frankstein and Rai standing before them "Why are you guys here?!" M-21 loudly asks while turning around completely to face them "We were checking the parameter just in case" Frankstein explained casually "I told you to stay low. Did you already forget?" M-21 reminded him of the phone call from before "I thank you for your kindness." Frankstein replied teasingly as M-21 and M-24 stiffened when Rai walked towards them "W-What." M-21 stuttered while M-24 braced himself for anything, But Rai simply passed them to look over the edge of the building they were standing on. M-21 and M-24 stared at Rai's back in anticipation "I have a question for you." Frankstein said gaining M-21 attention but M-24 kept his eyes on Rai "You want too much" M-21 complained as Frankstein smirked "Don't answer if you don't feel like it." M-21 scowled "Let's hear it" Franksteins' smirk never left his face "You guys and other members accused us for stealing a coffin. I want to know what was the matter." M-21 raised a brow at Franksteins' question "Why would you guys want to know that?" M-21 countered his question with one of his own "We want to know the reason that caused us all this trouble. why all the fuss?" Frankstein responded as M-21 stared at him for a bit before answering with a sigh "That's all? We're after the guys who stole something that belongs to the organization." M-21 looked at Rai once before continuing his explanation "Then we met you and got confused by bumping into such powerful guys like you, We thought you stole it." Frankstein fired another question just as M-21 finished talking "That something is the coffin?" M-21 nodded his head "That's right" Frankstein gaze never wavered from M-21's direction "Why did they steal the coffin?" M-21 eyes didn't leave Franksteins' own as he started talking again "We don't know what they wanted nor do we know who they are...But Marie captured one alive. So we'll find out soon. This one isn't like the one we had. That scumbag was just a carrier..." Frankstein face went back to its neutral expression as he pondered and thought to himself after learning more about what was happening. M-21 grit his teeth and crossed his arms "That's what is troubling us. Its only a matter of time before they find out those guys have nothing to do with you. And you guys are wandering around like this...If Marie or the others see you..." M-21 trailed off at the end and faltered a bit seeing Rai start walking in between them again but it was only because he heard everything he need to hear. Frankstein tossed a folded paper to M-21 who caught it and looked at the address written on it neatly.

M-21 looked at the piece of paper confused "What's this?" he asked and looked back up at Frankstein "It's a safe house. You'll find the location and the key there." M-24 looked at him in disbelief "Safe house? You guys know the location and you think we'll feel safe and hide there?" M-21 looked at the paper once again "Better if you don't need it. But won't hurt to have one just in case." Frankstein replied and turned to leave with Rai "Think of it as returning the favor. Excuse us." Frankstein then turned completely and left with Rai. M-21 and M-24 watched as they disappeared out of sight, they weren't sure if they should go to the address or not. Then again, They didn't know much about them.

-LOCATION CHANGE TO ANOTHER BUILDING ROOFTOP-

Rai looked out into the busy city and its bright lights contrasting against the night sky "The human world has changed a lot. " Frankstein stood beside him silently "But there are some things that haven't changed. Perhaps its not only the humans." Rai continued still starring off into the distance "Frankstein." he said as a breeze blew past them "Yes?" Frankstein replied wondering what Rai needed "I want to be alone for awhile." Frankstein looked hesitant on letting Rai roam around by himself "But...Yes, master." Frankstein disappeared from his side without another minute passing by and now Rai was by himself. Rai stepped off the ledge of the building and fell forward feeling the wind rush past his figure. Rai landed on another buildings rooftop and jumped to the next one, He felt himself being led somewhere by instinct. He finally stopped on the rooftop of a building and looked down as the cars and people past by, he seemed confused on why his instincts would lead him there of all places. Frankstein also looked confused on why Rai would just suddenly feel the need to stop here "Master.." until a thought came across his mind "I was right...He's lost." Frankstein thought and placed a hand on the wall beside him as he watched Rai wander a bit on the roof top before his eyes gazed upon something on the ground below him. Well it was more like someone, Frankstein followed his gaze and his eyes widen at who stood there looking up at the moon in the sky. Frankstein watched Rai descend the rooftop without being noticed and approach the unsuspecting figure holding a white grocery bag in both hands still looking like they were in a trance. Frankstein also descended from where he was and began walking to where they were.
