Zera had been certain; her luck had run out. She and her companions were doomed, and there was no one to save them.
"For what this is worth," Zera started. She exchanged glances with both Xavier and Jaspreth.
But she wasn't able to finish what she was about to say.
An alarm went off. It was coming from the two adjacent buildings.
With a scoff, Xavier threw Zera a glance. He smirked and shook his head.
"Your luck never failed to amaze me."
The monsters eager to catch up to them had slowly dissipated. They left Zera and her companions to follow the blaring sound.
Zera's muscles finally relaxed. She was no longer tensed and allowed herself a pat on the back.
However, that only reminded her that Sharmaine was probably close.
"Jay!"
"Yes," Jaspreth replied, moving forward to take the lead in finding his girlfriend once more.
"Hey!" a voice called out to them.
