Predictions Of The Future
The meeting came to a close and everybody went off to do their own stuff, leaving only Karla and Captain Blanche in the room.Before Karla left, she walked up to Blanche, who had barely reacted at all during the meeting. She wanted to get her input in all this, even though it might not be of any significance at all.“Captain, you with me?” Karla asked, reaching out her hand to gently grasp Blanche’s arm, then giving a light tug.Blanche blinked a few times, as if some old system was rebooting, at which point clarity seemed to return to her eyes. Blanche’s gaze focused, no longer having that far-off look of staring into space, as she turned to look at Karla.After a moment, Blanche said, “Yes, I’m with you?”Blinking, Karla didn’t react much to what just happened, being used to it by this point. Instead, she asked, “Did you hear everything we talked about just now?”Nodding, Blanche responded immediately, “I did… I heard everything.”“So what do you think?” Karla asked again.This time
Nene’s Disposition Toward Insensitivity
Leaving everything else aside, Karla responded to the remark Nene made offhandedly.“It’s impossible to rely on Kaleb’s powers to send this person to the enemy to cause an upset from within. They are already aware of Kaleb’s powers, and since we captured their man, they might assume Kaleb got him under his control, and they’ll definitely not let him return easily, if at all.”“Great, so we are back to square one, aren’t we? Not having a bloody clue to go on with because you let that brat leave,” Comb said, feeling angsty and irritated.“Drop it, Comb… don’t bring that up again,” Bolin pleaded with exasperation. But then Nene said something that made both Bolin and Comb look at him with venomous eyes.“Or we could just do nothing and leave this matter as it is, like it doesn’t concern us—which it actually doesn’t, by the way.”“…”“What?!”“Are you suggesting we do nothing while there are people out there hunting for one of our own? Is that what you’re telling me, you bastard?”Comb wa
Regrets And Surprises
“You’re right, Comb… I shouldn’t have let Kaleb go and I regret it even now.”Hearing Karla say this, everybody turned to look at her. Bolin’s eyes were filled with deep concern for Karla, knowing exactly how she felt. He knew that saying those words would not have been easy at all and that it took a lot of courage for Karla to admit it.Comb, on the other hand, while gleaming triumphantly for being right, said to Karla, “So you agree with me. It’s nice to see that. Unfortunately, it is too late already now that the damage has been done. We can only look for other ways to deal with this matter.”At this point, Bolin was about to rage at Comb once again for how insufferable he was being, but Karla actually beat him to the punch, continuing to speak like she hadn’t heard Comb’s words at all.“I regret letting Kaleb leave, but not because it was wrong to do so. Had I known that Bolin had captured one of their people, I would’ve let him stay a little longer so he could use his powers to g
Secret Meeting
“So that’s what happened…”Several minutes later, Bolin and Karla were gathered in a secluded location together with the rest of their teammates and Karla had just explained everything she had learned from Cale to all of them.Silence fell in the room as everybody contemplated what they had just learned for a little while. Eventually, Comb was the first to speak up, breaking the silence in the room.“So that’s what happened to the brat. Who would’ve thought?”Comb’s tone was very flippant as if he didn’t care about the matter at all, but nobody minded him knowing that he wasn’t actually like that. Being one of the members of the team that was close to Cale besides Karla and Bolin, Comb really cared about the young man, often gifting him some souvenirs from his workshop which Cale often complained about, saying that Comb was giving him scrap from his junkyard workshop that he didn’t need anymore.In the end, the two of them got along very well so if anybody was going to care about what
Lead Obtained
Hearing Karla’s instructions, Bolin finally stopped speaking and took a breath of air just like Karla said. Noticing this, Karla spoke up once again after a few moments had passed.“Okay, from the beginning, what did you say you did after I disappeared?”Bolin answered, “Well, I thought something had happened to you so I immediately ran over to your place where I caught somebody sneaking around in young Cale’s room. He must have been one of the people you said was following you so since I only saw him there I immediately captured him.”Hearing this part, Karla was immediately excited.“Really, you managed to capture one of them? That’s great! Hold on a second, are you still at the apartment?”In her excitement, Karla immediately changed her plans. She wasn’t in a hurry to report what she had discovered first but instead wanted to see the person Bolin had captured. It was likely one of Hive’s people because Cale had told Karla that he had instructed all of his people to only track her
Lair Of The Beast
Frowning, Karla thought to herself, “Blood—I sense a dense bloody aura coming from deep inside the alley.”Exercising her powers to enhance her senses, Karla tried to sense deeply and indeed found that she was correct. She could sense a thick bloody aura lingering in the alley deep within. It was like a lot of blood had been spilled all over the place and left to linger without being cleaned up.But that wasn’t all, because the bloody aura was also heavy with different sensations that only Karla could identify, as if it was mixed with different kinds of blood coming from various sources. It reminded Karla of a slaughterhouse where different animals were butchered together……or the wilds where different exotic beasts preyed on each other for survival.That’s it!That is what Karla felt as she sensed the bloody aura inside the alley—like she was back in the exotic beast-infested wilds where the slightest mistake would bring her close to the jaws of death.The only difference between the
