"I just wanted to check in to see if you kept your side of the promise. You bring me the girl and her partner, I stop causing humans to use the gems." The voice started, their tone suddenly cold, "But if this fails, I cannot promise my side of the bargain can hold up."

Rose gasped as Rudrig answered, "R...Ruddie." She started with a tremble in her voice, "I...I'm scared. I...I'm panicking." She continued, her shaky breathing could be heard over the phone. "I...I'm sorry. I just wanted to h...hear your voice. Th....they're gonna kill me aren't they? F...Freya told me stories of this compound. I...I just wanted to talk to you in case this was one last time."
She swallowed hard and closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face, "I... Wanted to tell you that..." She hesitated before she swallowed.

"I love you Rudrig."

The small gem that Freya had dropped on the ground glistened a deep red colouration; the inside of it looked like Lava. It was warm to the touch of human skin, and even though the boys hadn't seen one in the flesh; they would know that this is an Elemental Gem.


Harriet landed in the field as Duncan landed face first into the dirt. She heard her phone beep and looked at it before she moved to crush it in her hand before she dropped the rubble on the ground.
"H..Harry." Duncan asked as he pulled himself up, "What's wrong with you?"
Harriet shot a mental line towards Duncan to explain her memories rather than talking. "I'm going to [i]slaughter[/i] him." She sneered, her teeth sharp.
"No, Harry. You can't." He said as he sped up to follow her.
"No Duncan. I [i]Can.[/i]" She hissed back, glancing towards him as the shadows snapped around her, "He had my [i]trust[/i] Duncan. You [b]never[/b] betray the trust of a Memopath. No one will stop me from breaking his mind into nothing, no one at the Agency will be able to fight me back."
Duncan moved to reach out to her before Harriet lifted her hand and caused him to float in the air. "And I love you Duncan, You know this. We're essentially married by human standards. But if you [b][i]even fucking think[/i][/b] you're going to stop me from killing him, you become one of them, and I will not hesitate to get you out of the way."

With that, Harriet turned and continued walking, dropping Duncan to his feet before he fumbled with his phone.
He pulled it out quickly and sent Benjamin a text, [i]*Guys. Harriet is mad. Like. REALLY mad. Before we get back I would say you get yourself, Ethan and Mike somewhere safe. And anything you can find out about the girls please send to me.*[/i]
