Sorry I've been gone so long, I've been on holiday! But I'm back now so enjoy this chapter :)

Laura's P.O.V

Emmy beamed at me brightly, her pearly white teeth sparkled. She was so full of energy, inhumanly so! She shook my hand earnestly. She had the kind of aura about her that made you want her to like you.

"Emmy Altava here! It's truly an honour to meet you Laura, your work with SAVI is most admirable. I mean, just look at Clive! You really turned things around for him." She babbled eagerly, oblivious to the fact that Clive had stuck his nose under his collar, his cheeks now of a ruby hue.

"Thanks, Emmy!" I giggled at Clive's humiliation "But really, you saved Flora's life! I'd love to chat, but we need to get that man into a SAVI jail cell, and more importantly we need to get Flora to Hospital. As in right now. As in before she faints." I couldn't help but laugh as the woman dusted of her coat and said

"Oh of course. In fact I'll take her on my Emmycycle, it's quicker than by car." in her thick British accent. I handed the Professor and Emmy a small business card each. On the card was a date, time, an address and my phone number.

"I'm afraid Clive, Luke and I must be going. And you have my sincerest apologies about what happened to Flora. I'll have some bodyguards assigned to her to make sure it doesn't happen again, and if it's okay with you I'd like to teach her to fight. Just to be on the safe side. Meet me at the time and place the card says. We have very important plans to discuss." I nodded at the two. I realised the risk I was taking, letting to outsiders into the world of SAVI. My world. But my two best friends trusted this man with their lives, and that was good enough for me. This girl Emmy though... She saved Flora's life but... How can I trust her? Maybe I should do some looking into her past.

Emmy's P.O.V

I sighed and flopped onto my squishy bed. I had just returned from the hospital after what seemed like hours of waiting, just for the doctor to confirm that Flora had ,in fact got a bullet in her thigh. I had to do a lot of explaining, fabricating tales of how they'd been ambushed by a rough gang. But all the waiting had earned me something I had yearned for, for almost four years now. The Professors trust. Trust is very easy to earn, but if you lose someone's trust it's almost impossible to make them trust you again. Its like painting a picture. You can do it beautifully the first time, but if you accidentally mess it up you can never paint it again exactly the same. I picked up my phone, it was the only thing illuminating the dark room. Seven missed calls from Uncle Leon. I ignored them. Like I said, trust is difficult to get back, and Leon Bronev would never persuade me to trust him. Never again would I choose him over my friends.

So Laura's gonna be doing some digging into Emmy's past, eh? Let's see if she can trust Emmy if she learns about the girls ultimate betrayal...

DUN DUN DUNNN

Hey guys let me know if you want any fluff, and who you want it to be between. I haven't actually decided on any ships. Both Laura and Flora have the potential to be with either one of Luke or Clive. I dunno, but I always try to get some romance in there to lighten the situation. I'm also considering starting a new story (An Avatar: The Last Airbender one, not Layton soz :( ) So I'll be juggling stories yada yada but I'll update ASAP

See y'all
