Chapter 21：Episode 20 - Spying gone wrong (2/2)

– What do you have for us? —asked Alec—.

– Well…

Raphael told them the same thing he did to Luke. Alec was a bit confused. All those assumptions were a bit vague, but they didn't have anything else. He sighed and agreed. Augustus wasn't convinced still.

At the end, the 4 of them decided to spy on Zorn for the rest of the day. They followed him everywhere he went, trying very hard not to get caught. The day was passing by and so far, there wasn't anything suspicious at all. Zorn was just your typical guy, he trained and talked with his teammates, specially with Luna. Alec, Augustus and Luke were starting to get desperate. The day was ending and nothing suspicious happened. It was almost midnight.

– Wait! I know something is going to happen… we just need t-…

In that instant, they noticed how Zorn sneaked behind the Red Team's warehouse. Without thinking it twice, they went after him. They felt like finally they got what they've been looking for, and were ready to caught it.

– AHA! —shouted Raphael—.

Zorn was on the ground, feeding a small squirrel that was in there.

– Ah ha…?

– Wh-what are you doing! —continued shouting Raphael, pointing at him—.

– I was feeding this little squirrel… —said Zorn, taking said squirrel into his hands— you know how they usually release some animals before and after matches to relieve stress…

Luke sighed profusely, hiding his face with both hands. In that moment, Dominik appeared behind them.

– What's going on here?

– What a big waste of time! —screamed Alec— to think we were suspicious of this person…

– Of me? Suspect what? —asked Zorn, getting up from the ground—.

– Y-you don't fool me! I know you're the one behind all of this!

– What…?

– What are you saying, Raphael! Are you crazy!? —said Dominik— how can you accuse someone of that!?

– He isn't the good person he appears to be!

– THAT'S ENOUGH!

Augustus voice could be in the entire coliseum.

– This is so stupid, let's go, Augustus.

– Hey, what is this party all about, at almost midnight? —said Regina, with Agatha behind her—.

– Oh, just what we needed, the demon's queen… —said Luke—.

– What did you call me!?

– L-let's go guys, we're being too n-noisy… —spoke Agatha, trying to calm everyone down—.

– I thiiiink this is not the place for me. —said Zorn, walking away from the scene—.

– I'm sorry, it was all a misunderstanding. —answered Augustus—.

Zorn made his way back to the front of the warehouse. Dominik behind him. He had decided to protect Zorn. Nothing else mattered, not even his own team. He couldn't trust in them, anyways.
