Some of the Nova troops split off from the fight and start proceeding towards the Safari Zone. They swing wide around the fight and continue along a secondary road. In the distance they left, there's the loud sound of an explosion. Steel pauses firing for a second to tap a button on his watch to start the timer. "Thirty minutes!" he calls out. "Hit them hard, then fall back!"
The group spends some time firing ineffectively at the Nova troops, just enough to keep their heads down. The Nova forces fire back blindly, occasionally getting a shot uncomfortably close to their targets. After a few minutes of the two sides exchanging fire, the runner returns and runs to the platoon commander. "Lieutenant! There's a heavy fog over the town!"
"Eh?"
"I couldn't get to base to call for reinforcements!"
"You useless-"
"But I was able to find a pair of patrols who were also lost! They're on the way!"
"-wonderful grunt! Alright, prepare to charge! We'll overwhelm them with our numbers as soon as we have the advantage!"
"Sir? About the fog?"
"What about the fog?"
"Isn't it... I mean, don't you think the timing's really suspicious? What if this is just a dist-"
"Enough! I won't have any more of your distracting prattle, grunt! We're going to wipe out these damnable pests once and for all! Heh heh heh... I may even make admin for this...!"
"Si-sister-in-laws!?" Grace stammers.
Ribbons gives her a knowing smile from between Carleen and Cassandra.
"I-I-I mean, it's a little early for that sort of ta-talk, is all...!" Grace adds.

Thanks to the added chaos caused by the alarm, and the noise of the alarm covering his footsteps, Micah easily slipped through the Lilycove base, one room after another. He had already memorized the quickest route to the Commander's office, and he allowed himself to prioritize speed over stealth, only stopping to wait and hide whenever a patrol came too close. He finally located the Commander's office around the fifteen minute mark, giving him fifteen minutes to find what he was looking for and get out. He wouldn't need that long.
... At least, that was his thought until he entered the office and saw the caged Pokemon. Getting into the office was no problem; the card key he swiped earlier took care of that. It was standard protocol for all gate guards to carry a key to the Commander's office in case of emergency. And just as he had predicted, the office was empty. The one variable he had no way to account for was the huge Pokemon trapped in a high tech cage. He expected to see that kind of tech in Nova HQ, not... Out here in the middle of nowhere. Micah quickly searched the room for any potential hidden infrared scanners, and when he was confident there weren't any, he released Latias from her Pokeball.
"Scarlet, is that...?"
Latias gives a slight nod. "The legendary Pokemon, Heatran..."
Micah clenches his fists and grits his teeth as a surge of anger explodes in him. "They're trying to turn him into a Shadow Pokemon, so he can be Starbursted... I'm sick of these bastards playing God."
... I know. I know. It's not part of the plan. If I release him, he'll probably destroy the Nova base. And that will bring unwanted attention that we can't handle. But this... This is the one thing I can't overlook.
"Scarlet! See if you can wake Heatran up and convince him to leave the base without destroying it. Too much. If he agrees, tell him we'll release him. I need to find those papers. We don't have much time. Just don't get too close to the cage."

Steel drops back again, ducking behind a tree. Fire lets off a short burst of fire, then does the same. "How much longer?" he asks.
"Fifteen minutes," Steel says. "Halfway there!"
Steel peeks out just in time to see a Scyther rushing their way, carving through the brush with ease. He doesn't have time to respond before the bug will be on him, but a wave of powder snow from Ice's Piloswine forces the Nova trainer to recall it.
Fairy dives into cover beside Steel. "Ground's finished setting up a few pitfalls back there - usual markings."
"Great. Fire, grab Ice. I'll draw their attention!" Steel orders. He calls out his Lairon to act as moving cover as they fall back.
Vern covers his face with his hands and groans, looking at the pile of injured Pokemon still left. "Never... again..." he promises.

"Oh Grace your so cute when you get all Glay Glay," Yuzu giggled. "Psst, if you want I can see if you and your best friend Ashley are related,". "Who knows maybe you two are sisters?" Yuzu said playfuly ribbing Grace.
"Corphish Corphish Cor Cor Cor Corphish," Brock sang while clamping his claws in an almost beat like rythem. "Cor Cor Corphish Corrrrrr phish phish phish," Brock sang out while circling the happy group of Cass and Carlene.
"Pika Pikaa Piiikkkaaachu," Pika yet out in the embrace of Cass.

It takes around another six or seven minutes of searching through the office to find the papers he was looking for; Commander's reports detailing supply routes, personnel data sheets, daily activity reports, recordings of replies from Nova HQ, Intel reports on all the various enemies of Nova, reports on the surrounding area, reports on their progress to turn Heatran, and... Reports on the missing Legendaries? Some kind of collection of... Dates and theories. He would have to look over those later. He was almost out of time; finding those reports had taken too long.
"Scarlet, has Heatran agreed to our terms? We need to go."
Still invisible, Latias floats over and nuzzles him, bobbing her head up and down in a nod. "Yes! In return for freeing him, he'll only destroy part of the base so we can escape, and he'll leave the human town alone. He's given me his word. He won't go back on it."
Micah nods and slips all of the Nova Commander's reports into his suit- he makes absolute certain he gets all of them. Then he presses the cage release button beneath the Commander's desk, and Heatran's cage fizzles out, freeing the Legendary Pokemon. Heatran steps out of the cage, the floor shaking beneath his massive bulk. He turns to look at Micah and Latias, hesitates for just a moment, then shoots a pillar of flame up at the ceiling, melting it. He then melts the nearby wall and starts heading to freedom, coating the base in lava as he passes.
Micah doesn't waste any time. He gently hops on Latias, wraps his arms around her neck, and they rocket off through the new hole in the ceiling, heading out into the cool night air. At around the 25 minute mark, another ball of mist shoots up above the town, signaling the rest of Corva's team that the mission was accomplished. Since they had made good time, Micah and Latias flew over the edge of town and headed back to the first hideout to regroup with the others, instead of moving to the secondary hideout. Micah scouted the area to make sure it was free of enemies, then landed on the ground and turned off his stealth field, recalling Latias into her Pokeball just in case.

Grace turns her nose up at Yuzu's suggestion. "Hmph. I don't think there's any chance of that."
Steel sees the second mist ball flying up into the air. He checks his watch. Still 5 minutes left, but that's a pretty clear signal. "Alright, change of plans! We're pulling back early!" he calls out. "Fairy, grab Ground and pull out! Fire, Ice, 30 seconds suppressing fire, then drop back!"
"Got it! Magmortar, go!" Fire pulls out his pokeball and calls out his partner. He leans out and sprays wildly with his submachine gun. "Let's go - Flame Burst!"
"More!" the beefy-lava-duck yells. It points its arm cannon into the forest and unleashes a wave of flames. The Nova troops and their pokemon scatter out of the way, ducking behind whatever cover they can find.
"Piloswine, Blizzard!" Ice yells out. A sheet of ice and wind comes billowing out of the fat pig, obscuring the vision of the enemy as the trio take off running, careful to give any trees marked with slashes.
They follow the road for a short while, meeting with the rest of their squad as the pursuing foes are slowed by a maze of pitfall traps. After the first few fall in, the rest are quick to pull them out, but slower to continue following. Eventually the Galactic troops swing around to the south and start heading towards their secondary base.
Dragon grabs Corva by the shoulder and forcibly wipes the blood off her face. "No need to terrify our own troops. Now, we're just going to go back to base, like was planned, and wait to pick up our sniper. If he's late, we can talk about going into Lilycove. Then we're going to the secondary base. Without killing anything else, hopefully."
"Awwww, but Corva wants-" Corva whines.
"Ma'am. You've been pushing yourself for quite some time. Aren't you getting tired?"
"No-o-o-ope, Corva's fine!"
"Ma'am..."
Corva crosses her arms. "Fine. Let's just go wait at the old base."
"That's the right choice, ma'am. Do you have enough energy to use your... teleport thing? Or should I have Noivern carry us?"
"Oh, no, Corva can do it. Come on." She wraps her arms around Dragon's waist and holds her close. She stops before opening the portal, leans in, and whispers in her ear, in a soft voice laden with intimidation. "By the way, if you tell anyone about Whammy or Alpha..." She pauses for a moment, then leans back and switches back to her normal carefree demeanor and warm tone. "Oh, except for Micah. Ghost already knows. Oh! You and Boom could even join our playtime sometime. If Ghost says it's OK. Ghost says some of his Pokemon aren't really friendly." She immediately leans back in and continues in the icy monotone whisper. "But if you tell anyone else, Corva - I will track you down and show you how merciful Corva has been to our enemies."
With that, Corva opens a portal beneath them. The pair sink in, appearing right outside the base. "Hi, Ghost. Bye, Ghost," she says as she hovers a few feet above the ground. She lets Dragon drop and immediately opens another portal to the glade, disappearing to go collect the rest of her team. As she arrives and with Dragon gone, Corva lets herself drop to her knees, clutching her head and gasping for breath. Kon is out of his ball and at her side immediately. After a few seconds, Corva stands up and pats him reassuringly.
Dragon is surprised by Corva suddenly letting go. She slips on the ground and falls as she lands.

Micah is momentarily stunned by Corva and Dragon's sudden appearance, but he quickly snaps out of it when Dragon falls. He snaps open his visor and immediately kneels by her side. He starts to hold out his hand to help her up, then stops, suddenly unsure if she would be offended by the offer. The end result is both awkward and a little cute, with Micah's arm hovering halfway outstretched.
He clears his throat a bit, then asks hesitantly, "You all right?"

"Dawwww your way too cute," Yuzu said hugging Grace.
"I am fairly new to everyone here and i haven't got a good read on everyone just yet,". "I wonder was everyone always so carefree, or was it rough out there for all of you,". "I remember when Nova had me locked away in one of there bases trying to use my voice as a way to manipulate other Pokemon,". "Thankfully there was this youth named Austin who broke into the base and saved me,". Yuzu said sitting next to Grace.
"What about you Grace what's your story like?". "There has to be more then just Glay Glay, and everything else,". "Did you and Ashley always have such a tense realtionship?". "How about Ms. Carlene's other Pokemon how are they, in your oponion?". "If we are going to be Sisters then we have to know as much about each other as we can," Yuzu said to Grace.
Carleen was celebratimg with Pika, Cass, and Ribbons when she noticed Vern and Jude were still not around. "Hey Cass it's been great and everything but I am starting to worry about Vern, and Jude," Carleen said. "You think we should see how they are doing?" Carleen asked Cass.

Location: Goldenrod skies.
With no way out of the city, and nothing but a variety of twisted metal to keep it company, Yveltal was attempting to make a rational decision. The kind of decision where the downsides of an infinite lifespan truly come into play.
There is a chance that should she destroy enough of the city the force fields keeping it contained would come down. But that's unlikely. Even Nova, with all their blunders, wouldn't have only a single point of failure for the shield that kept their leader safe. There would be multiple generators, inside and out. There is possibly no way to escape.
Considering the amount of destruction to the city, nobody important could be in it, or if they are, they are deep underground. If Yveltal were to die within proximity, those VIPs would be caught for sure, but there is no guarantee that they are even there, and the odds of their presence dropped sharply the moment Goldenrod became host to the Death Turkey.
Celena is a guarantee. She chose to duel with Death, and so her life is in Yveltal's grasp. No matter where she is on Earth, Yveltal could absorb her life-force as one of those reclaimed to restore her. It is therefore in Celena's best interests to capture Yveltal. Yveltal would die before that happened.
"Is there any reason to prolong this conflict?" the Destruction pokemon thought to herself. As she traded mutually futile blows with a mechanized menace, and Celena dusted off the snag machine she never bothers to use, her resignation was building. She was boxed in.
"Humans and their technology...they are capable of too much...this is my fault for underestimating them."
Yveltal reached the apex of Goldenrod's force-fielded dome. She struck a Y in the air, as if to fire one more Oblivion Wing, but its wings then snapped around, wrapping its body tight. It dipped in the air and began to plummet, glowing bright red like the deadliest missile falling from the sky.
"Alright Saturn. You win. Give your kind the apocalypse they deserve."
Location: Goldenrod Underground
Saturn sifted through the computer storage system as if he had designed it (He didn't. He just studied a lot of IT manuals beforehand). But Diancie's pokeball had scarcely fallen into his hand, when Harry teleported into the room, inside the computer terminal. Needless to say, it exploded.
Saturn flicked the pokeball at the two nearby kids, shouting "RUN" before getting picked up by Harry and flown into the nearest wall.
It took three instants for Harry to assess the situation, besides the "Saturn is so killable right now" part. One instant to register the kids, another to register the pokeball, and the last was one of indecision. Saturn or Diancie.
He decided to throw Saturn at the kids. He raised a gun. No banter this time. He was on a clock name Yveltal. Kill them all, get the pokeball, teleport the heck out of here.
Aim trigger kablam headsho-
A diamond wall spontaneously appeared to block the bullet. Diancie was free. Weak, but free. It clung to Jaquelyn for support.
Saturn groaned as he switched his Skill Swapper to something he used very infrequently: Shadow Tag. Immediately his and Harry's Shadows locked together.
"Just go!" Saturn yelled back, taking the newly summoned Diamond wall as a shield and charging at Harry. All he needed to buy now was time.

Dragon grunts in affirmation. "Yeah, just... surprised me is all. Ow." She reaches up and pulls herself to her feet on Micah's arm. She dusts herself off and lets out a weary sigh. "I worked so hard to clean myself up this morning." She inspects herself as best she can, twisting awkwardly to try to see her backside before realizing she can just ask Micah. "How bad is it?"
Vern chucks the last of the Magikarp back into the water. He groans and rubs his face again. He kneels down and splashes some of the water on his face.
Sue lies to one side, exhausted from her role helping with the healing. "Po-o-o-ore," she whines. Vern scoops up some water and splashes it on her. "Poreon..." she says with a bit less exhaustion.
"Yeah, I'm tired, too. Here, rest up." Vern recalls Sue and starts marching back to camp. "Never again. I'm never making a deal with a Corphish again. Next time it's going right into the pot. Corphish Chowder."
Grace looks away uncomfortably, but doesn't pull away from Yuzu. "Carleen's other Pokemon are OK," she answers. "I guess."
Cassandra shrugs. "I'm sure Vern's fine. And Jude's just moping. Though maybe it would be a fun idea to barge in on his mope session and try to cheer him up? If we double-team him, there's no way he could resist our combined charm, right?"
Jude sits in his room, flipping through an old journal full of notes about Nova formations and tactics with an angry scowl plastered across his face.

"Just a small tear on your skirt and your collar," Micah answers, carefully looking her over. "Otherwise your uniform seems fine."
His medical training kicks in and he searches Dragon for wounds, noticing only a couple and very minor ones at that. "For protecting the Commander, you certainly got out mostly unscathed. I'm impressed."
He moves to stand in front of her and leans in slightly to check her face. "But that cut on your cheek will need to be treated or it will get infected. May I? It will only take me a moment."

(Dawwww Dragon and Michah to cute <3)
"Your right Cass, if we combine our sisterly bond, then even Jude would fall," Carleen said. "Come let's go cheer up Jude, Cass we shall break down any walls that comes up, let's go," Carleen said grabbing Cass by the hand and walking towards Jude's room.
Pika looked towards Ribbions and ask if they should follow.
Brock noticed Vern walking from the forest and ran to Pika.
"Corphishp Cor Cor Phish Phish Phish Phish," Brock told Pika waving his pincers and pointing towards Vern.
"Corphish, Corrrrr, Corphish, Phish, Phish, Cor, Corphish, Corphish, Corrrrrrr," Brock weeped.
"Pika Pika Pika, Pika Chuu Pika Pikkkka Pikachu," Pika said placing a paw on Brock.
"Pikachu, Pi Pika Pikachu, Pi Pi Pika Piiiiiikkkkachu," Pika said as he threw a fake pokeball, and then proceeded to rock back and fourth three times.
"Phish, Phish Corphish, Cooooorrrrphish," Brock said as his eyes lit up.
"Pika Pika Pi Pikachu," Pika asked Ribbions.
"What about you Grace?" Yuzu asked. "No need to be shy around us,". "You know I can tell your a very strong Pokémon, but you almost seem to put up walls around yourself,". "Are you afraid of people finding out that deep down inside your really a sweet heart and that this whole Glay Glay is just a way to not let people in,". "Well Grace just know I am always here willing to listen when your ready," Yuzu said as she let go of the hug she had on Grace.

Joshua let out a loud and weary sigh as he finally pried the second cuff open. As with basically anyone else, he instinctively rubbed his now-freed wrist.
That took far longer than it had any right to take.
He took the broken piece of metal and inserted it into the trash bin, burying it deep and out of view.
I should go check on the team I left behind, just to make sure everything's fine. Though if something has gone wrong, I'd expect Nelson to be banging on my door by now.
...Unless he tried messaging me first. He does remember that my communicator was destroyed, right?
...
...
I should go check.
Joshua quickly recalled his Pokemon and went for the door. The door slid open before he could grasp the handle, leading to Joshua and Yancy looking at each other with mild surprise.
"Oh, hey," Joshua stammered.
Oh hell, what time is it?
"H-hey!" Yancy said. "You're here early... Right? What time is it right now?"
"Actually, I am early. There were some minor setbacks and I had to do an emergency teleport back. Nothing too bad, I assure you," he quickly added, "but, well... here I am."
"Oh," Yancy said, her gaze dropping. "Well, as long as it's not too bad..."
Joshua bent down slightly and studied her expression. "You look a bit down. Did something happen at work?"
Yancy entered the room and closed the door behind her. "Am I really that transparent?"
Joshua faced her and put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Want to talk about it?"
Yancy pursed her lips in thought of how best to explain it. "I'm just... frustrated about how understaffed we still are. Even with the volunteers from Lilycove, everyone's still working so much for so long and having to juggle too many duties, and injured soldiers have been pouring in since Sevii. It's becoming too much for all of us, and it's the people we're supposed to be saving that are suffering for it! We're struggling to meet the needs of everyone, and what hurts the most is when we lose someone because of something we could've easily prevented; when our equipment isn't being properly maintained, they aren't getting their proper treatment, when nobody was nearby when someone was going into cardiac arrest, we even had a situation when someone's medication was switched! I just hate how little manpower we have, and how it feels like nothing has been done about it!"
Yancy took a deep breath after venting to calm herself. She drew her arms around Joshua, resting her head on her shoulder. "Sorry, it's just..."
Joshua held her tightly, understanding her plight, and yet not knowing how to respond or if it's something he could do something about. He mulled over what Yancy was leaving unsaid.
Damn Sycamore...
"Yancy, I'm not sure what to..."
Yancy drew herself back. "It's okay. I know it's complicated. But I already feel a little better, just letting it out a little."
She gave a soft smile. It seemed a little forced, however.
"A-anyway," she said. "It looked like you need to go somewhere, so... Don't let me keep you."
"...Actually, I can spare another quick moment," Joshua said. "It's important."
"Really?" Yancy said. "What is it?"
"I ran into Hugh," Joshua said. "...He's been busy."

Dragon groans. "I'm more concerned about the tears. I just finished patching my uniform. This cut's not so bad. I already rubbed some dirt on it, the rest can wait until we get to the other base. Then again, there's no telling where the commander is or how long she'll be. I guess if it's really bugging you that much..."
Cassandra stops in front of Jude's room. She lowers her voice and speaks so only Carleen can hear. "Alright, I'll get him outside, then it's your turn." She knocks on the door.
"Yes? What is it?" he calls from inside. "Did something happen?"
"Nope, we just wanted to talk to you a bit!" Cass answers.
Jude groans from inside. "About what?"
"Open the door and I'll tell you! It feels really awkward shouting like this..."
"Fine..." he says. He walks over to the door and opens it, observing the two women wearily. "Yes? Oh, don't tell me this is about what you said earlier..."
Vern stares at Brock and Pika blankly. "...What."
Quills flaps over and lands on his shoulder. "What. What. What."
Grace leaps up. "I... I am not shy! And I don't have any walls! And... and I'm not strong or a sweet heart of anything!"
Ribbons tackles her from behind and chomps on her ear. "Iunno, I fink yer pre-y swee," he mumbles.
Grace yelps and tries to run off, but Ribbons trips her and goes back to snuggling her. "Nope! You're not going anywhere just yet. Don't you still need to apologize to Yuzu for something?"
Grace squirms for a minute, then gives up. "Right, I... do. Yuzu, I'm... sorry for poking you earlier."

Micah actually smiles slightly- something that was fairly rare for him. "We have some time; the enemy isn't in pursuit currently. And I would much rather treat the cut myself now, than wait until later and risk it becoming infected. Even a little cut can be a nuisance. Could you sit down for me? I promise it will only take a second."
While Dragon sits down on a nearby rock, Micah opens the small black bag attached to his belt. The bag held several hospital grade medical supplies, including gauze pads and disinfectant. "I used to do mainly solo missions, so if I got injured I had to treat it myself. I'm probably nowhere near as competent as Fairy, but I'm a decent Field Medic."
He kneels in front of Dragon, takes off his gloves, and pours a bit of water from his canteen onto a gauze pad. Micah then begins to thoroughly clean Dragon's cheek. He worked swiftly, but his hands were gentle and his touch was tender. He ends up using three gauze pads to clean the cut, before he pours a bit of the disinfectant on another. He then presses the disinfectant pad against Dragon's cheek, holding it there for a moment.
"How long have you been in Commander Corva's squad?" He asks casually, as a way of making small talk.

Carlene just nods to Cass on the count of three. "1...2...3," Catie Carleen said as she lunged towards Jude and placed him in a big hug.
"Oh that, no problem," Yuzu said with a smile. "Okay see you two love Pidoves later," Yuzu said floating towards Pika and Brock.
"Hey Pika what's going on?" Yuzu asked.
"(Vern is back and Brock is freaking out)," Pika told Yuzu. "(I assured him that he's a part of the team and that he belongs to Carleen now but he's still scared out of his mind),". "(Umm any ideas?)" Pika asked Yuzu.
"(Help Help Help I am to young to be smothered in butter)" Brock said freaking out.
"Corphish Corphish Corrrrrrr Corphish, Cor Cor Corrrrrr," Brock said waving his pincers around in a panic.
"Oh is that all," Yuzu said.
"(That big brute over there he's a meanie and a big old) CORPHISH," Brock said to Yuzu.
"Its okay I will talk to Vern for you," Yuzu told Brock.
"(Oh your simply a divine Corphish sent by the almighty Corphish to Corphish my Corohish Corrr,)," Brock said to Yuzu.
Yuzu floated towards where Vern and Quills were.
"Ah it seems your doing well Quills, who's the big Ho-oh?" Yuzu asked Quills.
"So Vern Brock is freaking out about what happened at the river,". "Be thinks your here to finish his Corphish once and for all,". "Yet Ms. Carleen caught him while you were away healing all the water Pokémon. "No one touched or cooked the Kingler or Speaking yet while you were away,". "Finally it turns out that Pika and Ribbons are half brothers," Yuzu told Vern.

"Any help would be appreciated, even if Shaymin can't combat the serum directly." Molly said with a sympathetic nod.
And then she thought for a moment that she felt a particular buzzing pattern on a particular psychic frequency. The one Blue uses to reach her.
But it was just her phone.
"Pardon me..." she said to her company sincerely, checking the phone's screen. Several alerts from FleTwitter about Goldenrod. Something big must be happening. And also a message from Blue.
Bird is cooked. We need to move faster. Discharge 2300.
Molly looked back up at the company around her. "Sorry, I have to leave tonight. If any of you want to come with me, then you have until 11 to decide, and I couldn't thank you enough for your help. If you have questions...um...I'll answer them. No point in hiding much anymore. Just please don't spread anything about Blue around, he wouldn't like that."

Riley thought for a moment.
"...How long to get us there? We're called on short notice often, so the less time we're away, the better."
"...I would also like to be here by 3," Marley said. "...There is a show I want to watch, then."
It took Riley a few seconds to piece together what it meant. "...Wait, you actually watch that drivel?"
"...It is... a guilty pleasure." Marley muttered, failing to meet anyone in the eye. "...Mira's commentary is entertaining," she adds, trying to justify herself.

Dragon twitches when the disinfectant's applied, and quickly returns to a neutral expression. "Well, I got assigned to Corva's group... hm. I think this is my third mission with her. As well as several smaller raids. Steel joined about the same time as me. Ground's been around her the longest. Fire and Ice came a bit later. And Fairy's the newest. This is his first proper mission with us."
Vern groans. "Great. Well, then, let's get to cooking. Quills, little help with the fire?"
"Help, help! Fire!" Quills trumpets. Vern tosses some wood from the stockpile into a ring of stones, and the baby Ho-oh lets out an unexpectedly massive pillar of fire.
Vern drags out some tools and starts getting ready to cook. He glances at Yuzu. "You can help if you want." He turns and glares at Brock and Pika. "You two've done enough."
Jude looks confused at the turn of events. "What? Er... Huh? Why are you... hugging me?"
Cassandra waits for Carleen to wrap around Jude before springing her trap. She shoves her in the back and sends the pair into Jude's room, then slams the door shut. "You two can come out when you've made up, OK!" she calls in.
"What!? Cass!" Jude yells back.
