Chapter 24 - For Pauline's Sake

As part of the WMCO Nyx and Korin were sent on a mission directly from the united States federal government which Chinami had persuaded them to go on.

It was a mission to the east to support dozens of America's former allies in Asia on their a rebellion against the dragon clan.

They both agreed and went on the mission.

A few days after their travel, there was a war in the east .

With Nyx and Korin on their side rebelling against the dragon clan became effortless until the viper viking accompanied with his witch entered the war turning the tide.

News broke out that Nyx was struck by a spell casted by Edeth's sister Odeth, who cursed the gift of reincarnation that Edeth had given,by sacrificing two of her dragons.

While Korin was poisoned during the war,he was alive but weak, he had been taken captive by the dragon clan,who have relentlessly dosed him.

Rage had filled Zaya immeasurably when she heard this since then she'd wish to kill the witch and she could no longer trust Chinami.

Zaya removed her hand from the picture frame.

She then asked herself, if she got her memories back and became Edeth, would she still have the will to kill Odeth?

Zaya sighed,

she wouldn't believe Nyx was dead.

She touched the frame back then said do not worry Nyx, I will find you, even if it's the last thing I do.

She then closed her eyes and said, Korin hold on it won't be long, the phantom girls her on their way.

The bulb in Zaya's training room flickered as it turned red and began blaring loudly.

Zaya looked up to the bulb and realized what was happening she bolted out of her room going to that of Ashara's she then realized they were gone.

Pauline must have teleported them she thought, Zaya sprinted out of each of the training rooms as she entered the elevator going downwards.

The elevator door hissed open as Zaya arrived at her location.

Right ahead of Zaya was the largest part of the phantom girls head quarters.

Weapons and Nano suits of different kinds were lined up on the wall, ab oval table with chairs placed in the middle.

In a side of the large room stood the others.

Zaya hurry!

Ashara called gesturing for Zaya to coke towards them, right at their front was a huge screen projecting the map of the city.

Entering into the city was a red dot which came at full speed what is it?

Zaya asked June who sat at the control panel her hands furiously typing the key board.

An image appeared on a side of the screen.

It was Chinami, phantom girls she said we have a situation, could you go check it out?

We are already on it said Zaya as she walked towards the screen swiping the image away.

Still mad June asked her gaze still focused on the screen, of course I am, she's on the side of the united States.

Now that they have Korin and Nyx we are next said Zaya.

Pauline sighed, have tried everything I could but they just won't listen.

June then rotated her seat to the back facing the others.

We couldn't possibly fight them back we'll be the bad guys and with wmco's biggest shots gone we can't afford to try anything rash.

Zaya walked up to the screen as she said, don't you see it guys our rulers have been taken too, Nyx and Korin where tougher targets that's why they were attacked first.

What do you mean Pauline asked, it was planned the war in the east was only a distraction, Korin is probably dead now.

While Nyx, we don't really know, but what am sure of is that it was all planned.

You might be correct said June her gaze falling back on the screen.

Ever since Nyx's disappearance, Zaya has been confused as to what her next mission should be,

Was it to find the gems that'll lead to getting her memories back or was it to stop the dragon clan from taking over the world.

Or was it to find and save Nyx and Korin.

Zaya shook her head brushing off her thoughts.

Who's robbing the robbers tonight Zaya asked Ashara.

June eyes on the truck,

Roger that said June.

Zaya, Pauline, you get in your Nano suits.

You're both going to the truck,

June we've still got those sleep drones right?

Yes we do, how long till the truck reached Carl Trevor's street Ashara asked.

You use the sleep drone to distabilize them, and that's were Zaya and Pauline come in.

You just need to get on the truck and from there June would send in the lift drones and bring both you and the truck back to the head quarters.

Standing in a building on the left side of carl Trevor's street was Pauline staring intently and waiting for the truck to arrive.

On the opposite side of the building was a taller building about eight stories tallZaya also focused on the street below waiting for the truck.

On sight of the truck the sleep drones that were being controlled by June rushed towards the truck ambushing it.

The truck stopped and was surrounded by a couple of black cars, coming out of the cars were a bunch of police men!

Who shot at the drones, sending them straight to the ground, Pauline was distracted by the twist of scene not noticing the Red dot on her head.

The police men ordered her to come down or they'll make the shot, Zaya gritted her teeth in anger,

she had told Chinami that they'll have to go on heists in the city yet she's tricked them into getting arrested

Zaya jumped off the building as she twisted, flipping in the air continuously, there was a look of shock plastered across the faces of the policemen including Pauline that had already been hand cuffed.

Zaya landed on her feet, no hint of pain in her legs, she raised her head up, her purple eyes glowing.

A sword beaming with purple energy appeared in her hands she took a battle stance .
