"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.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAUi5870zKYC
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?"

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.
679Please respect copyright.PENANATrIFjlsudR
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.

Maggie stared at the young detective, shocked and slightly scared at her statement.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAHRociGaGou
In that split second Maggie saw something she never expected to see reflected in Mitchie's eyes.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAj8EH2ppSfE
Hurt. Fear. And pure rage.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAWZl760eFJM
Mitchie rose from her seat and walked out of the room without a word.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAuw9McrTp29
Maggie pondered over what she had just seen moments ago.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAe1YddO8Kd5
She's hiding something.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAEpNG9mvWPF
Whatever it is, it's not good.
679Please respect copyright.PENANATVvPEGygpD
Maggie smiled to herself.
679Please respect copyright.PENANA4gg7otJ7ko
Seems I'm not the only one with secrets.
679Please respect copyright.PENANASzYhxcdh7j
She's got guts, I'll give her that.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAf2FwGSy0ei
Seems we're more alike than I thought.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAt8OF9VpuMl
Let's hope she can handle it.
679Please respect copyright.PENANACJinXi0ibR
And then we might just get along.
679Please respect copyright.PENANA6U0fz0HIae
As long as he doesn't get in my way.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAwHmoXsA1c6
Suddenly a loud clatter echoed round the whole apartment, followed by a sharp smack and a series of yells.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAlZFDqY7t7I
Maggie laughed and sighed at the crazy situation she had gotten herself into.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAIUoJ9GCOWm
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.
679Please respect copyright.PENANALYoYxAZ9Zj
"Hello again, Magpie." a familiar face, sneered at her.
679Please respect copyright.PENANAOvtV0lhEmz
"Oh, bugger."
