~~~~~~Jayce

Same time in Piltover:

"We're losing control over the Undercity. Their funding and organisation seems alors to have improved greatly this is really concerning. Do you have a solution Jayce?"

I sighed and clenched my fist as Mel suddenly began speaking.

"I fear it might be best to call Rewind." She said calmly and as elegantly as usual.

Everybody gasped and began whispering.

Rewind...?

"Calling Rewind would be admitting we're losing to the Undercity!"

"She's right! Rewind has only ever been called in extreme circumstances!"

"I understand your frustrations but if you want to control the Undercity as fast as possible, i would at least inform Rewind and organize a meeting to discuss the subject."

They all whispered before agreeing.

"Mel, you have a minute?"

She looked back at me and took me to her quarters.

"What is it?" She asked.

"What's ... Rewind?"

"Oh, Rewind... Let's say that they're a group of allies we've made overseas. Their leader is the only one who speaks our language and is called Rewind." She explained calmly.

"So ... You're gonna ask them for help?"

"Not help, advice. Until now, they've never disappointed and their leader is a very talented young man. Oh also here."

She handed me a mask.

"Nobody shows their real face at such meetings. Now go on and sleep. They're coming tomorrow."

"Jinx, I'm gonna go steal something from Piltover? Wanna Come along?"

Her eyebrows rose in interest.

"Is that a date ?" She asked with a little smile on her lips.

"Sure, I'll steal you a pretty gem if i find one."

We both chuckled.

"Hmm, Soooo what are we stealing...?" She asked biting her lip.

"Don't worry about that darling. I'll take care of it."

"Hm, okay! Can I take fishbones...?" She asked me with puppy eyes.

"No, not fishbones."

"Pleaseeeeee!"

I took her chin in my hands and kissed her.

"I said no. Be a good girl... Just once." I responded still holding her head as i took in front of her.

She slightly blushed.

"Fine... Only cause you asked so nicely though..."

"Thank you. No get some sleep." I said kissing her forehead.

The night flew by and the moment of the meeting arrived. Mel adjusted my mask as a flying ship arrived.

A single person came out bit we were observed by a whole squad who stayed on the ship.

"Rewind, Thank you very much for fast response." Said Mel.

"Don't thank me." Said the young Man's voice behind the mask.

I was surprised as he looked at me.

"You're new." He said neutrally before walking in the building.

I looked at Mel for help but she ignored me and followed the young man in the building. I decided to just follow along.

"Ya ready sweet cheeks?"

"Not yet!"

She stole a kiss from me.

"Now I am!"

I chuckled and started Walking away with her.

We decided to stay on the stealthy side for this one as i wasn't planning on disturbing Piltover Yet.

Jinx and i managed to find our way back through tunnels and into the basement of the main building. Jinx, for once, quietly followed me. Everything was going smooth until we arrived at the door.

I started Picking the lock.

Jinx had a flashback of Mylo.

"You okay?" I asked seeing she was covering her eyes.

"I'm fine! Continue. Let's get this over with."

I pushed the door open.

"Woah...what's this place?" Said jinx looking around.

"From what I've researched, Viktor's laboratory."

I walked towards the Cube who was floating in the middle of the desk.

"Jinx, container please." I asked.

"So this is it huh?" She said handing me the container.

"Yep..."

I carefully put the agressive cube inside of my container.

"Pfiou... Okay! We can head back-"

We opened the door to find ourselves in front of a group of Enforcers coming out of the room a bit father down to our right.

"Can I shoot now...? Or are we running?" Whispered Jinx.

"BOTH!" I yelled as i took her over my shoulder.

Jinx began laughing and shooting at them. Looks like she was having fun. I looked over my shoulder when I bumped into someone. Jinx flew out of my arms but caught the container.

I looked back at the person who i had bumped in.

"ACHLYS!"

I snapped out of it and stood back up.

"Wait!" Yelled the young man i had bumped in.

"Jump JINX!" I screamed as i began sprinting towards her.

Jinx extended her hand towards me, waiting for me when a voice suddenly yelled out:

"LILY!"
