Squad 12 made sure to get to the venue on time in order to scout for traps. There weren't any, which only made them more anxious.
The gang hung around on high alert, awaiting the mysterious woman they had met the previous night. Time passed slowly. It went from evening, to night, then the moon came up.
"You think she'll show?" Ronnie asked, gripping his chain tightly.
"She will. I feel like she will" Josh responded.
"Now now, what kind of person would I be if I didn't honor our meeting? My master is no liar, neither am I?" A calm voice came from within the woods. Her silhouette could be seen from afar, as she came closer, she became more visible. The woman gave them a smile.
They returned bitter smiles. Ronnie and Josh looked anxious.
"If anything happens, I'll keep you safe. Your friends too" Lily said, squeezing Ronnie's hand softly like she could read his thoughts.
"That's reassuring, you're quite confident one" the woman said.
