"Of course!" Everyone has been searching the eternal Arcaic magic! It's legendary! It's said to hold the key to the lost city of Atlantis. But, how did you get it?" Maggie asked curiously.

Mitchie closed her eyes and tapped her fingers against her chin as she leaned it against the armrest.

"I take it you've heard of mermaids before?" she smirked.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAO7TevHkHwt
Maggie looked at her in shock. "You met a mermaid?! But their almost as rare as the Arcaic magic itself! Is that how you healed me?!

"Sort of." She replied before sighing. "It's a long story. One I don't have time to tell even if I wanted to. Let's just say I did them a favour. And they repaid me with my Arcia shield. I only ever use it in extreme emergencies. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to tell you any more. So, are you ready to join my team?"
681Please respect copyright.PENANAuWsgAKZ2RA
Maggie sighed. "I guess. But I know there is more to the story. I will find out, whether you tell me or not." she replied, sheer determination in her eyes.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAhzlQ0RSJlf
Mitchie's eyes rose in amusement at her accusation.

"Do what you want. But I have to warn you, whatever you think you might find, don't expect it to be good." she replied.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAcm0VlQkmMi
Maggie stared at the young detective, shocked and slightly scared at her statement.
681Please respect copyright.PENANABfL0kiPdz7
In that split second Maggie saw something she never expected to see reflected in Mitchie's eyes.
681Please respect copyright.PENANACqBSuPfoRS
Hurt. Fear. And pure rage.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAjoUQrJcGgg
Mitchie rose from her seat and walked out of the room without a word.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAnPewxRUVmg
Maggie pondered over what she had just seen moments ago.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAXNLiRCjoOK
She's hiding something.
681Please respect copyright.PENANALUPnvV8sP8
Whatever it is, it's not good.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ7O7oRFIA
Maggie smiled to herself.
681Please respect copyright.PENANATlfe05A3bB
Seems I'm not the only one with secrets.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAjXiUobhWmR
She's got guts, I'll give her that.
681Please respect copyright.PENANA2F8ngI0nee
Seems we're more alike than I thought.
681Please respect copyright.PENANA6OSwVZbVOz
Let's hope she can handle it.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAjABfFp1jol
And then we might just get along.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAmX6QkxakB5
As long as he doesn't get in my way.
681Please respect copyright.PENANA5UhFNtj8mx
Suddenly a loud clatter echoed round the whole apartment, followed by a sharp smack and a series of yells.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAbggpqe7nwT
Maggie laughed and sighed at the crazy situation she had gotten herself into.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAoYlZWWgEQ7
Seems I better join the in the fun, she thought as she clambered off the bed and jumped over Veggie brains unconscious body and out of the room, to be met by complete and utter chaos and a devilish grin.
681Please respect copyright.PENANA4VAL054zdP
"Hello again, Magpie." a familiar face, sneered at her.
681Please respect copyright.PENANAn8rusDjqUH
"Oh, bugger."
