This was her moment to shine. 

It had been a rocky start since becoming an Asylum two years ago. Between their high failure rate with missions combined with her partner’s lack of interest in finding more work to better their performance it has been hard finding a way to stand out other than the unappealing nickname given to her team that has been circulating within the auditing department she joined two months ago. However, she had a feeling within herself that things were changing for the better. They were able to complete their last two missions flawlessly and waiting for them upon their arrival home was an invitation to Innocence. 

She was certain that this was the push her team needed to finally make an impact.

Even though Bella conveyed her thoughts telepathically to her partner, her excitement could easily be seen around her as she gave a slight nod throughout Tabion’s speech. Her thigh length beige cardigan was just short enough that her fingertips could be seen rapidly tapping against her legs as she gave off a slight smile on her face. 

[i][color=bc8dbf]‘Zane? Can you hear me?’[/color][/i]

Her smile vanished after not hearing a response from her partner. She glanced to her right towards Zane who was wearing a dark grey flannel shirt along with black tinted sunglasses-- glasses that he wasn’t wearing when they first arrived.

[color=bc8dbf][i]‘Seriously? You better not be doing this at a time like this....’ [/i][/color]

The response Bella received was a single light snore from her partner who through intentional training throughout Innocence has mastered the skill of dozing while giving off the appearance of being alert. 

[color=bc8dbf][i]‘Why now? This is so embarrassing.’[/i][/color] With Bella’s pale complexion it was easy to see her cheeks becoming red. As Tabion finished his speech and walked away Bella gave a swift kick to the side of her partner’s leg with her ankle length boot which was made for fashion rather than a pair of AMRO issued boots.

Interlacing his fingers and stretching his arms above his head Zane gave a loud yawn before slowly scanning the area. His gaze stopped at his partner who was now turned towards him and visibly frustrated. [color=6ecff6]“What?” [/color]Zane said nonchalantly as he gave another yawn. [color=6ecff6]“It’s not like I missed anything.”[/color]

[color=bc8dbf]“...you promise...no sleep… so why sleep?” [/color]A feminine voice said from Bella’s glasses. Being deaf, Bella’s main form of verbal communication came from her glasses which has been the bridge for her to the hearing world. 

[color=6ecff6]“I said that I would consider behaving but I never promised you anything. Besides, the question shouldn’t be why sleep?”[/color] Zane said as he took his sunglasses off and stored it in his pocket. [color=6ecff6]“The question should be why waste my time when there are better things to do. Tabion’s speech was probably the same old motivational speech that has been copied, jumbled around and then pasted with a pinch of creativity if we are lucky so what’s the big fuss about tuning out bits and pieces of it?”[/color]

[color=bc8dbf][i]‘Zane, please don’t. Let’s not cause a ruckus.’[/i][/color] Bella shook her head no as she moved their conversation telepathically as she glanced towards the Tabion and a prisoner that just got off the plane. She wasn’t sure who the man was but he seemed vaguely familiar from the paperwork she had processed in the past. Even with her slight curiosity she was certain that she didn’t want to be near him seeing that he was in chains.

[color=6ecff6]“Fine.”[/color] Zane said with a shrug before walking towards Geko. [color=6ecff6]“Are you here to give us an encore to the spectacular speech we heard or are we free to go?”[/color] Zane said to the lost number with Bella in tow who purposely stayed two paces further away from Geko compared Zane with the hope that the distance would be enough to avoid any antics he might come up with.

[color=bc8dbf]“... Sorry for Zane… rude behavior.”[/color] Bella communicated apologetically.
