Midnight closed her eyes and said “let’s just go…” she turned sharply, not known ghe was right behind her. She smacked right into his chest. She froze and looked up at him. That’s when he would see it. Her eyes were bright and silver, looking more like a unworldly being then a human.

She didn’t move as she said “I’m sorry…”

Matias was about to turn around when a sudden impact struck him in the chest. His eyes shut, and his arms reached out instinctively to grab hold of something. He did end up grabbing something after all; little did he know that it would belong to a person.

"Agh," he hissed, "watch where you're...!"

The two were at a stalemate now. Matias's dark brown eyes were a stark contrast to what he was seeing right now. He couldn't even make out pupils. Then, just as suddenly as he was hit, he pulled away, growling softly.

"It's fine," he huffed, "just relax, alright? Not every mission's gonna be a smooth one."

Midnight stepped back, then turned and said “I’ll head to the capital…you stay and help Bane and Dante with information…” she rushed to the door, her shadows moving around her like a cloak.

She opened the door and paused, breathing hard. “I’m sorry…I just can’t tell everything right now…too much rides on this staying in the shadows…”

Matias was hesitant to nod. His eyes scooted to the side, and he sucked in his lower lip for a moment.

"... By yourself?"

A heavy sigh escaped his lungs.

"Fine. You're the boss."

He was about to follow Midnight out, but her pause signalled him to do the same. He opened his ears for her, listening in silence. Her words attracted a hand to Matias's brow.

"Listen... It's not important to know right now. What's important is that the capital doesn't know more about whatever it is."

His eyes met the back of her head.

"Just promise me you won't bleed out again."

Midnight nodded and said “I’ll be alright…as long as I’m not shot again…” she headed for the doors, pulling her formal cloak to take the role of Lady Midnight. She opened the doors and walked out.

Dante and Bane were watching from the stairs and Bane asked “she give any hints on what freaked her out so much?”

Matias stood and watched even when Midnight-- he meant Lady Midnight, was long gone. The doors seemed to have hypnotized him up until he actually moved. He turned to face the duo, his eyes dark and droopy.

"Ay... I don't even know."

His hand met his brow again, attempting to massage the headache that was beginning to form.

"She kept going on and on about not having people know her secrets, all this vague nonsense..."

His hand fell flat against his side, and he shook his head in defeat.

"She's gone nuts. That's all I can say. But anyway, she's off to the capital. She also told me to stay here with you guys, I think to get info on potential raids in Pixie Village. That's what I'm assuming she meant by 'information'... She was vague about that too."

He rolled his eyes mid-sentence.

Bane frowned then said “I don’t think that’s the information we need…we need to find out what they know. I say we follow the bug” Dante nodded and said “Iris just needs sleep. Scarlet will get info on the raids. We need to figure why the government fears your three on that list”

Matias waved his hand in the air dismissively, sighing softly.

"Bueno, lo que sea. Though I'm not exactly sure how she expects us to do that from here when she's the one going to the damn capital."

He folded his arms and shifted his weight to one foot, looking to either be thinking or pretending to be.

"What I'm wondering is why the boss of all people wasn't identified by name... Is there a way to take off the redaction?"

Dante smiled and said “there is…we could visit my dear brother. His office has the files. I bet he would know how to get the originals. And we won’t need to sneak in since I see him there all the time”

Bane nodded and said “that’s a good plan. We can gather the other information we need as well”

Matias sucked in a slip of air between his teeth upon hearing the plan.

"So... To the capital."

He waddled in place for a moment, his hands in his pockets.

"Alright. If that's what we gotta do, then whatever. The only thing is, uh, Iris. She's gonna be alone for a bit. You guys are cool with that?"

Bane frowned and then said “he has a point…she is deadly awake but asleep?” Dante frowned then they heard a knock at the door. Bane moved and opened it, seeing Lady Midnights assistant standing there. “Umm…hello? I was hoping to check in on lady Midnight…”

The knocking signalled Matias to look over, raising an eyebrow.

"Didn't expect them back so soon..."

But now there was no need to, because his suspicions were confirmed incorrect. In fact, he almost forgot who this person even was. He let out a soft "oh" once his brain powered up and remembered.

"She's not here," he replied, "she went to the capital to... What was it... Oh. Check on some paperwork. She should be back in a few hours."

He nodded and said “well I was supposed to work in her office today…can I come in and start getting things handled?” Bane nodded and said “if you could keep an eye on our healer?”

He smiled and nodded. “Of course.”

Smart move, dog man, Matias thought to himself. What were the chances this guy was gonna pop up, anyway?

"She's sleeping in the guest room," he added, "Just check on her every so often. We'll try to be back soon."

"Try" was somewhat of an understatement. In truth, Matias didn't know whether this would go smoothly or end up as yet another disaster in the evergrowing list of them, especially now with Dante back. The front door caught his eye for no particular reason other than wanting to distract himself from the others' gazes.

"Alright. We should get going."

The assistant nodded and said “of course. I’ll keep an eye on things” he headed to the office as Bane nodded. “Van is out front. Shall we get a move on?” Dante nodded and was checking his sword on his hip. “Ready when you are?”

Matias gave a nod before heading out the door. Just as promised, the van was sitting outside for them. It was enough to make him feel right at home, in Midnight's home.

He scrambled through his key ring to find his copy of the van's doors, popping it in the lock once he did. With a 'huhp', he hopped inside and settled down on the cold metal floor, rattling the materials inside with his weight.

Bane got into the drivers seat as Dante sat on the bench in the back. “I think my car is still at the station…so what are we thinking this is about? Theories anyone?”

Bane started the van and started driving saying “with her reaction, the boss must have a big time secret…something with what she truly is…”

Matias made himself comfortable on the bench, leaning back, folding his arms, pulling a leg up. He was practically ready for the long haul. He was even about to fall asleep before the question stirred him from his preparation.

"Well no shit," he scoffed, "She literally told me she had secrets she wanted to keep. Though she did start doing that when I asked what she was as, like, a joke? So maybe. Who knows."

Dante looked at Bane then the werewolf sighed as he drove. “Matias…what do you know of the story of the Third Party?”

"The Third Party...?"

Matias raised an eyebrow and appeared to grimace. One eye closed as he seemed to be thinking of an answer to give. A few "uhh"s later, he shook his head.

"I don't know anything. Haven't even heard about it."
