"Of course" Damien smiled, "I guess we'd better head back, and act like you got a stern lecture about proper soldier behaviour."

"Yes sir. And I'll try not to laugh." She replied, leaning over and kissing him on the tip of his nose.

"He-hey! I have a public image to keep" Damien protested, wiping the end of his nose with a white gloved hand. He then began heading back to Monica and the group.

"Of course. Forgive me." She chuckled as she followed him out, doing her best to look warn and depressed as if he were yelling at her that whole time.

"And I hope that you've learned to act more Diethelmian from now on?" Damien asked Shadow, to pretend he gave a stern lecture on proper military behavoir. By 'Diethelmian', Damien of course meant disciplined and attentive.

"Yes sir." Shadow replied apologetically with a bow. "Shall I resume formation?" She asked with a salute.

"Yes, you may" Damien ordered, then walked back over where Monica was. "Well, everything is in order" he said to Monica. "We can now move out."

"Yes sir." Monica replied, calling for them to fall out as they returned to the base to resume their duties.
Shadow slipped away from the group, returning to her expensive apartment. She changed into one of her old outfits that hadn't been worn since before she was stuck in that vat and went through her bank account. She sifted through paperwork before going out. Later, she texted Damien. 'Found something interesting.'

Damien arrived back at the main government building at the capital, bringing along Monica and a few others. Most of the soldiers went home or back to their stations. "Hey, guess who's back?" Damien called to Jian as he headed to the area of the building that was reserved only for the top of the government and those with special permission.

"You are! Or are you referring to Monica? Or someone other then Monica?" Jian asked, sitting down on the chair with a glass of wine in his hand.

"Well, yes I am. But someone else is as well" Damien said, and stepped to the side so that Monica could walk in and present herself. "Everyone came back safe and sound. Actually we had an extra passenger. I wonder if you can guess who that was" he said.

"Shadow?" He asked, choking a little on his drink as he looked at Damien. "She's back?"

"Yes. She was rather quick about it, wasn't she?" Damien replied. As if on cue, he received her message. "Oh, seems she's discovered something already" he said and replied back. What is it? was his message.

'Information on an anarchist group rising to power in the underworld.' She replied in a text. 'Apparently they're both active and annoying, but got a lot of money and backing.'

"What do you guys make of this?" Damien asked and showed the message to both Monica and Jian.
