Chapter Three (A): Adrian & Suki

[Akirapryde]

Alima glanced at Adrian as he spoke but she said nothing in response. She turned her attention back to getting her gear on. The three bodyguards were no longer keeping an eye on Adrian and Suki while they picked up their things. Adrian walked across the large room back to where Suki was calmly sitting. However, it was clear that she had become slightly nervous over being left alone. Clearly Suki hadn’t fully dealt with being blind yet.

Right as Adrian reached where Suki was sitting, the three bodyguards turned to Adrian and Suki in one fluid motion. The clicking of weapons from safe to fire told everyone in the room it just got serious. Alima spoke, “Kimiko’s gone! Do you know anything about this?” The three guards remained silent and waited for Adrian to answer.
