262 Edge Of Truth

"Wait, Adrian!" Scar chases after Adrian, but Sebastian stops her.

"It's okay, he wouldn't know," Sebastian sits up, a hand pressing on his broken ribs to limit its movement, "Three of them is a start. I'm sure the police are working on it." Scar stares at him with disbelief.

"They almost killed us! They almost killed YOU! How could you be so calm about it? You heard Adrian. He said THE three guys, not just three guys. He was under the impression that there were only three of them! The other two got away and they would probably come back for us!"

Scar frowns, the familiar dark feeling gulping her up bit by bit, "Maybe the only way out is just..."

Break the law and take the devils back to hell herself.
