"Sshh Keep quiet, do you want to get eaten?"

"Please do not mind our citizens, for so people froe"

"Hene was currently being escorted by the old feeneral, Sasha; behind the side by side in lines

The shock in the Prisoners' eyes was evident as they trailed across the City Their houses and buildings were almost the same as what they have in the outside world; they could not help but wonder how so like this was able to be built here Some of them have already spent years in the Encained that there was a place like this, waiting for theret suddenly crawled through their eyes They reuard said; about how they could have started a new life here, but instead chose to be greedy and attacked the Village as soon as they saw it

But they could not help but ask themselves if they truly deserved to be here Some of them started to tear up as they saw the faces of the people here These people knew nothing about their pasts, they could truly start anew if they wished to

The Locals, on the other hand, had nothing but awe in their eyes Even though they were born inside the Pit, almost all of them had never laid eyes on the City They could only drearandparents tell them stories about it…

and yet here they are None of them even minded the transparent stares of conte them, they just continued to stare at the tall houses; even the very street they alking on was paved They were as if a child seeing the world for the first ti them, was also the same Boss told him that she would take the City, but to think that it would be this fast She didn't even let hie…

But to think she really did it What kind of genius plan did Boss do for her to conquer the City just like this?

At first, Eugene thought that Boss would muster up all their people to attack the City, but all it took was 3 people… No… Of course, they were able to conquer the City-- The Ghost is with her, after all

He could only show his surprise when an entourage of people froe unannounced

At first, Eugene thought that Boss failed and that they had incurred the wrath of the people from the City He couldn't help but re the soldiers from the City, but to his surprise, they were only there to escort theene, of course, still held a bit of resent so her history, he couldn't blame her for her ruthless actions He couldn't help but release a sigh with the thought as he focused on listening back to Sasha

Back at the end of the line, Gil and Cynthia were together, their eyes trying to search for the comrades they haven't seen for quite a while

"I wonder where Van and Nisha are?"

"Little Boss should be here so around," Cynthia said as her eyes scanned the people that were staring at them, "Still… I have to say, there seems to be a lot of people here that we could play with"

"Don't even think of har the people here, Cynthia," Gil quickly said

"Oho, you're already enrolling as a guard here? How loyal to your cause"

"I aht in the eyes, "Whatever the Circle ht have done to you outside for you to become like this… You have a chance to live a soain with your idealistic speeches," Cynthia could not help but sigh as she heard Gil's words, "I don't kno you're still holding on to your faith even after all of this"

"It's faith on people… on you, Cynthia I do believe you can change"

"Uh…" Cynthia's steps instantly slowed down as Gil's words reached her ears Gil's red hair reflected the sun, alht brown eyes; no lies or deception were hidden on his face
