"It was me," Ys said, her voice icy and resolute, echoing through the stunned silence.
Her green eyes were sharp and unforgiving. She tilted her head, with a smirk dancing on her lips as she added, "Now, you'd better keep your voice down. I wouldn't want to disturb the patients."
Carlos snorted, crossing his arms. "Looks like our little 'pocket-sized grandma' has some bite, huh?"
She gave him a sidelong glance, flashing a smile that was anything but sweet. "Oh, don't worry, baldy. There's plenty more where that came from; do you want one too?."
Rex leaned back, arms behind his head, looking perfectly content. "Well, this got interesting. Mind if I just sit back and watch?"
Carlos grinned, pushing him. "Better hold on to that sense of humor, buddy. Looks like we're in for one hell of a show."
