   After Kev signaled that the area was clear, Kali drove Suzaku and Rayla out of the mansion in a fancy looking red sports car, heading towards the Ryoukan Tsurugiya Inn.

Rayla: So...I'm assuming something is stopping you guys from questioning the Majima Family, right?

Kali: Under the pretence that all of the workers except for Majima himself aren't under the Tojo Clan, we weren't allowed to "bother" them... Saying that we have no evidence that the goverment is funding a clan to hire a construction company and that we wouldn't be able to get any answers from them.

Rayla: That's absurd! Majima's presence alone should allow you guys to question at least him.

Kali: Yeah...but if we wanted to gather other kinds of information, we had to obey those orders.

Rayla: Well...Guess it's up to me to ask for information then.

   Moments later, Suzaku had just finished her phone call with her brother. Rayla then, remembered that she never really told anyone about what happened to her. She picked up her cellphone and called the orphanage.

Tiane: (Where the hell is she?)

   Tatianna looked everywhere after Rayla, but saw no sign of her. She was about to give up and ask Lady Amara about her whereabouts, but then, the telephone ringed.

Tiane: Hello?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/HlXPByR.png[/img]
Rayla: Hi...is Lady Amara around?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/vRoP2un.png[/img]
Tiane: She's busy with dinner but I can take over.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/xxm1uwp.png[/img]
Rayla: Wait, Tiane? Is that you?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/klfXUZb.png[/img]
Tiane: Rayla? Where the hell are you?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/F6fEuSC.png[/img]
Rayla: Long story short: I fell down some stairs and now I'm being chased by the Shihana Clan because they know I'm injured.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/d4dDlxG.png[/img]
Tiane: I doubt falling down some stairs would actually hurt you...What actually happened?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/5Uup8Mf.png[/img]
Rayla: Well...Just tell Lady Amara that I'll be back home tomorrow. Tell her that I'm going to stay at a friend's house. I'll tell you the full story when we meet again. It's just...You're not going to like what you're going to hear unless I explain it properly...and in person.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/vRoP2un.png[/img]
Tiane: If you say so...I'll do that for you.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/D2NSBLC.png[/img]
Rayla: Thanks. I owe you one...
[img]https://i.imgur.com/nDBoJDa.png[/img]
Tiane: You really don't need to owe me. (I just know you're the last person that would want to worry her.)
[img]https://i.imgur.com/4Gjutid.png[/img]
Rayla: Oh, and one more thing. How is Lucent doing? Is he still...alive?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/BlnftTd.png[/img]
Tiane: Up and kicking. He's actually right here in the living room with a devilish smile.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/bz4i6DS.png[/img]
Rayla: That's good. I didn't want to be around if...something bad happened, but I'm glad he's okay.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/0w8cfs7.png[/img]
Tiane: Well...I don't exactly interact with him...But not seeing him around would...I dunno...Make me think that something is missing... Pretty much like how it happens when someone gets adopted...but much worse.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/5Uup8Mf.png[/img]
Rayla: (Oh yeah...She can't see herself being adopted by someone.)
[img]https://i.imgur.com/90Jdyp7.png[/img]
Tiane: And here I am being all mushy again. Forget what I just said and see ya tomorrow. (And don't die on me. I know you wouldn't joke about being chased by a dangerous group...but what the hell happened that she's now injured?)

   The call ends, Tatianna heads to the kitchen to tell Amara about Rayla. Back at the car, Rayla realizes something.

Rayla: (Wait, Lucent with a devilish smile? Am I missing something or is Tiane just messing with me?)
