Gainsboro jumped up at the deep rumble that came from the distance.

"What on Remnant...?"

He stumbled a few times as it was followed by more explosions, each growing consecutively closer.

"Ch-Chief Wilk! Please investigate this heinous attack on government property!" Gainsboro readjusted his glasses out of nervous habit and -

- realized that the safest place to be was probably in the room with multiple combat-trained organization leaders in it. He stayed put.

"Ahh, now would be an excellent time to demonstrate your defense capabilities," he uttered dryly as the fight came closer.

He noticed Casper Bluthardt pretty much ignored everything he had just said to pull aside Oliver Browning of the VPD. And now he was telling them that there were BOB-planted corrupt spies in the law enforcement? This was a complete outrage.

"Mr. Bluthardt, after the predominant issue is settled we will be meeting again to confront the unlawful infiltration of Vale's kingdom-wide armed forces!" he yelled. But at this point, everyone had already sprung into action like the well-trained guardsmen that they were. Gainsboro's eyes widened at the speed and efficiency at which they acted.

Fen looked at the girl sitting before her. She appeared even younger than herself, this Cyzarine.

"So. Cyzarine, huh? On a normal day I would ask you what you're doing, but obviously we're being pressed for time here." Fen said coldly. 'It'd be best if we work together to find a way out, unless you're prepared to die a slow death?"

Fen straightened up and cast about the small cell. It was devoid of objects aside from the flat bed which Cyz was on, and a thick glass wall was keeping the two girls firmly stuck inside the room. She went over and stood before Cyzarine.

"Down to business, then. I haven't seen any guards stationed around here from the angles I've tried. The best way to open the door would be to get these guys' attention and attack them when they unlock the door. It'd be difficult since we're both unarmed though, to have much of an advantage in a fight."

Fen sat down beside Cyz. ''The enemy of my enemy is my friend... right? ''Social norms were disregarded in such a high stakes situation.

"I'm thinking we can break the camera that's monitoring us to draw the guards' attention, and overpower them with their own weapons. Have any better ideas?"

Before, Fen would have done everything she could to avoid doing any real damage to another human being. but at this point, violence seemed to be the only option.

While waiting for Cyzarine's response, she tapped her foot and, out of habit, reached up to fix her beanie. But of course, it and her outer jacket had been lost in the scuffle, leaving her without any fancy overgarments to fiddle with.

How did it end up like this?

All other questions could be pursued once she was free. Fen missed the sight of the clear blue sky above her.
