The Leauge Of Fail

[a_time_slip]

Janie had been back for a few days now, but was nervous about Snake Steele showing up again. She had weapons but feared she wouldn't be fast enough.

His attack came as a complete surprise, and one of her fears came true. All of the bad guys were working together, which would make winning a lot harder. Today, she was at a mostly empty diner, drowning her sorrows in a plate of pie and a glass of chocolate milkshake.

Julian smiled a little. "Thank you for trying."

He wasn't sure about the details yet, but at least it seemed like a chance.

"Hmm. And if you could make him think that you'd left in another way?"

"We're friends." she smiled back, genuinely

"I could, but it would have to be a pretty large ruse... at least it will at home. I'll come up with something, I promise."

"Yeah. Yes, we are." Hearing and saying it felt a little weird, but nevertheless good.

"Alright. That leaves Solus and Vahl, and I have no idea what to do about them."

"Me either, but if we all work together it can't be too bad, right?'

[lostinthefog]

"It's essential that we do work together, yes. But we still need a strategy. And with those two, it's most important. You have seen what they can do."

"Yes, I have." Janie looked down, trying to push both of them out of her head "Let's just... enjoy the food tonight? Shall we?"

Julian found it incredibly difficult not to think about the trouble they were in, but Janie was right. They needed a break.

"Yeah. Let's do that."
