At the edge of City Z is a large abandoned warehouse where the strongest and most deadly people reside. Hackers, assassins, fighters, weapon masters, and more. This is the base of Gabriel Vale and his subordinates.

In the underground base in the training room is none other than Grace sparring with her brother Gabriel with many spectators invested in the powerful fight.

“I wonder if Grace will win this time”

“I doubt it”

“Me too, Gabriel is more experienced”

“True, He always says only strength doesn’t guarantee a win”

The crowd continued to gossip while Grace was scowling and wiped sweat from her brow.

She stood across from Gabriel and analyzed any chances of an opening, but found nothing.

“*sigh*, you win again brother” Grace concedes defeat and stretches her sore limbs before making her way over to her bag

“You could have kept going” Gabriel frowns at his sisters defeat and followed after her

“Yeah, but I'm already tired from the party” Grace sits on the ground and takes a sip of her water

It becomes quiet and Gabriel faces the crowd with a serious gaze causing the others to flinch and back away slowly.

“What are you all standing around for, get back to practicing or do something productive” He commands

They all scurry away quickly in fright and get back to work.

Grace just rolls her eyes at the group

*ting*

“Hm?” Grace looks at her phone and unlocks it

-Hang out

“What the? Who just wrights hang out, and who is this” Grace mumbles to herself and texts back

Gabriel is curious about what she's doing and leans in and looks over her shoulder.

Who is this?-

Almost immediately they get a reply

-Jasmine

…….

“PFFT HAHAHAHA!” Grace bursts out into laughter and rolls onto her side clutching her stomach

Gabriel is covering his mouth with his hand trying not to burst into laughter like his sister

“She’s so funny” Grace giggles out and wipes away a tear and calms herself down while sitting back up

“I didn’t think she would contact me first” Grace says mildly surprised

“Well she seems like a person with all types of surprises” Gabriel comments offhandedly 

“Hm?” Grace looks at her brother with narrowed eyes

“Come on, don't give me that look. I'm not Aaron. I actually notice other people then simply ignoring them and treating them like air”

“Whatever” Grace rolls her eyes and texts Jasmine back

My bestie! Whatcha need-

-Hang out

    Hang out with me. Like going to lunch or something?-

Grace texted confused while Gabriel who was watching over her shoulder was trying not to laugh at the obvious awkwardness of Jasmine
