"So that's it?" A girl with a green mask said number two. "I guess it is. There is nothing we can do but go into the shadows." Number three retorted. "Redial, ma'am again we came up empty-handed, but we need funds."

Number four spoke, "How about the tournament? We can get so much money for the faction." Number one fought for a second, "We can crush the competition if you fight number four."

Redial spoke up, "But it's two-on-two matches meaning number four cannot fight alone, and it's for exclusively the fifth army."

Number seven spoke, "Also, isn't it tomorrow?" Number one instantly responded, "I believe so." They walked off toward the company room as Redial went to her dark cramped office. She wasn't happy at all with the outcome of the masked man situation but it was out of her hands.

Huro sat and sighed, "Why did I send Dante on a mission? I should have sent Ibrahim to get the job done fast." Ibrahim sighed before he spoke, "I told you but for the tournament, Seth and I are practically unbeatable we should be able to stomp the competition."

Huro slumped, "Yeah, but Staff Sergent Seth will be your superior so listen to him. You got it?" Huro waited for a response but he never got one from Ibrahim as he had already walked out. "I need to recruit a technician for this company."

He got up and looked at the monitor and sighed. He pressed a few buttons and called Stas, "Hey Stas, Do you know the upcoming tournament?" Stas thought and he sighed, "I know I wasn't going to fight in the tournament!" Huro looked happy but to a certain extent.

"So I don't need to break the news to you? All the day ends at two thirty. So the day ends in half an hour. If you see other members tell them to come back at two fifteen. We as a company are going on an assignment."

Stas looked over at Sylvia as she was also listening. Stas turned to look back at his device, "What type of assignment?" Huro sighed, "I'll tell you when you get here in fifteen minutes." The call cut and Stas looked confused.

"So we won't be going home at two-thirty?" Sylvia walked over to Stas and put her hand on his back, "Seems so buddy." Stas crouched, "Do you think Huro will actually do anything if we leave now?" Stas looked more depressed.

"He probably can't but I don't think Seth, Ibrahim, or Dante are on sight yet." Sylvia simply started walking, "Come on do we have to go or we could do something more interesting." Stas wouldn't get this but Stas looked at the ground before responding.

"I feel like I have to be involved." Sylvia just smiled before walking off, "Should we go to the shop real quick?"

Stas would start to catch up with her before saying, "Yeah but I don't have much to buy. Do you?" Sylvia responded, "I feel like having some sweets." Stas shot back immediately, "One of these days you're going to become fat." Sylvia turned and slapped him, "Do you not have any respect for women?" Stas got in her face and said, "It was a joke and I'm not Dante!"
