"Yeah, sure. And I suppose that there was a sleeping gas grenade inside, too right?" Scythe's voice was dripping with sarcasm.
"Actually...yes there was. And...if you have a problem with that, or the fact that Shadow took the Nightstalker back …then this contract is over." As Kaado spoke, he hesitantly stood up and faced the desk that their former employer was pacing behind. Scythe was quite taken aback by Kaado suddenly taking a stand, as he was usually quiet and accepting of what other people told him to do.
