"Hey wait up!" Raven called out before Maria could turn in the hallway which usually was crowded with students. When she wasn't listening, he ran fast to her and grabbed her wrist.
"Let go."
"Hey, don't be angry at me," Raven said but let go of her hand nevertheless. "I'm sorry I made you stay there. I didn't know he would shout at you."
"Doesn't matter. In here or in the house, we would end up fighting. That guy's obsessed with protocols." Maria said.
"We are too, remember?" Raven pointed out since the Red Emirates they belonged to, was also a protocol freak too. Nabi would even hate it if one of her agents committed slight disobedience of that rule. "It's not untrue that you broke it without even a head start with me. I'm your partner. Don't act alone. Just imagine my shock when I receive a call from you. Gives me a heart attack til now."
