KAPPA

We lost almost a hundred people. About 40 others were seriously injured. Only twenty walked away with minor injuries, including me.

The safe house was on the other side of the city, underneath a small farmhouse. I had made a protection deal with the farmers long ago, and it's probably a good thing I did. There are so many rooms, we get fresh food, and clean water. Only problem- we can't go outside for a few days.

"You know why it happened, right?" Talos says in between bites of her food. "It's because of her."

I turn my head to look at Powder, who's eating alone on the other end of the room. I shrug and turn back to my food, keeping my head low.

"There are bounties over her head. Piltover's got three million just for her head. I heard that Vimon is willing to pay more than that just for confirmation she's dead."

"She didn't ask for them to be after her," I say slowly.

Talos leans closer to me and drops her voice low. "That money would do wonders for us. We can rebuild. We can be stronger. No one would dare mess with us."

I nod insincerely, pulling out my knife and sticking it to her throat quickly. She jerks back, making it clear that she's on her side of the table. I just glare at her as she takes her plate and walks back to her room, leaving me at the table alone.

===============================

VI

Caitlyn hasn't spoken to me since we got here. She hasn't even looked at me. I think the final straw was me choosing to bunk with Pow instead of her.

"Come on Cait," I say, leaning on her door and hoping that she's on the other side listening. "What did I do? Please just talk to me."

Silence, as expected.

"Well I brought food for you, incase you get hungry. I brought mine out here too, so we can eat together."

When she comes out, I've eaten almost all of my food. She slides down the wall and sits next to me, balancing her plate on her knees. She doesn't look at me, she doesn't even say anything. It's like I'm not even there.

She leaves without saying goodbye.
