Ethan and I sat on the two empty seats placed next to each other.

"How old are you?" Jake asked.

"Eighteen."

"Oh, new type eh?" Ethan glared at Jake, "I thought you were into older- woh woh! Okay lad, chill out."

"We aren't together." Everyone on the table stares at me in shock, especially Ethan and Lilith, but then she rolls her eyes, "whatever!" Lilith takes her bowl and places it in the sink.

"Your turn Maia."

"It's you're turn today." Maia caught Lilith by her collar and pulled her to the sink, "whatever!" Lilith rolls her eyes ones again.

"I swear I'll pull out your balls if you roll them again!" Maia threatens and leaves, after placing her own bowl in the sink.

"It must be awfully uncomfortable to sleep in the same room then, Lilith, give Ethan a new room to shift into," Chris informs Lilith.

It wasn't uncomfortable to sleep next to Ethan, it is very cozy. I can go to sleep within minutes when he is next to me, but of course I did not say a thing, nor did Ethan.

I was a little disappointed.

There was a sudden loud beep on a device kept near the sofa. Lilith quickly washed her hands and ran to the device, followed by Maia.

They were discussing about something on the screen, while the others finished their breakfast and joined Lilith and Maia.

Soon enough all of them scrambled to their own rooms and got changed.

"Where are you all going?" I ask Harry as he comes out from his room dressed in black with shades.

"We got a mission to complete."

"Mission? What kind of mission?"

I gasp, "do you sell drugs?" I suspect looking at his shady clothing.

Harry blinks once, twice, thrice and then laughs.

"Ethan, explain it."

Harry then turns around and walks towards a wall, "Harry be careful!" I scream and cover my hands around my eyes, not wanting to see him crash into the wall.

I opened my eyes confused, there was no Harry in sight anymore, just a wall.

Did he go through the wall?

I walk towards the same wall and try placing my hand on it, only to be close to tripping.

"Ah!" Ethan grabs me just in time.

"Careful, it's an optical illusion," he sets me on my foot, "follow me."

I follow him through the dark, the steps were steep so Ethan constantly told me to be careful.

As we reached down there was a door camouflaged with the wall around it.
"Wow." I praise the creator of this.

Ethan carefully opened the door, as if there were a code on it, the room was lit dimly and there were racks n racks of weapons. I hold on to Ethan tightly.

In the corner of the room Lilith sat in front of lots of computers and switches.

Chris shot daggers at Ethan but went back to choosing weapons.

"What are they doing? Do they really sell drugs?"

"No. They don't sell drugs, they work on stopping the distribution of drugs and power."

Maia enters and starts removing weapons, "power= money, money=corruption."

"Then are you working for someone?"
