A couple of hours later...
In the dimly lit room, the Phoenixes sat around the large table. Marcus, the leader, sat at the head of the table with Sable, Lova, and Nova on either side. They were discussing the recent recruitment of Shinon into their ranks.
Marcus cleared his throat, breaking the silence. "Shinon's recruitment is a complicated matter. He despises us, and we know it. So, we have to be cautious in our approach."
"We can't force him to do anything he doesn't want to. He's already agreed to work for us, but that doesn't mean he won't try to sabotage us at every turn." Nova replied.
"Don't listen to my pipsqueak twin," Lova cracked her knuckles. "I say we keep a close eye on him. If he tries anything, I'll take care of it. Sable would agree-"
"Not necessarily."
But surprisingly, for the first time, the usually warmongering Sable wasn't on the side of violence.
