Recap:

"You recognise this man?" I ask Boris?

"No" he says after looking at him

"Is this the man?" I ask the rogue "Yes that's him" he says looking at him with pure hate.

I grab my gun and aim it at Boris' head

"WOAH WOAH WOAH! What's going on?!"he says putting his hands up in a defence position

"Boris Sullivan. Consider yourself dead and gone. You may now meet your doom" I say and pull the trigger getting blood on my face

The rogue looks at me in shock "You didn't even ask his side of the story. What if I was lying?" He asks

"You're about to die from blood loss and you just sold your boss out. How would lying help you? If I leave you here you die, if I let you go you die, so you might as well be honest" I shrug

"Thank you" he says looking at me in awe

"Cool" I say and walk out. "Get him to the hospital and send extra guards to the banquet hall and get rid of Mr. Sullivan" I say to the guards.

"Yes Ms. Walcott" they respond. Good pets.

I go back home and shower. It is now half past eight and the ball started at 7. I get dressed

I arrive at the ball and everyone stares at me. Could be because I'm late and showed up in jeans while everyone is in their best gowns, could be because I look super cute.

I'm going with cute

When I stepped into the ballroom it was all eyes on me. So, naturally I did what any person in my situation would have done, I headed straight for the food.

I was stuffing my face with finger foods when Lexi walked up to me and stared at me as if I had grown three heads

"What in the HELL are you wearing?!" She yelled at me

I looked down at myself and said "Clothes?" With food in my mouth

"OK first if all, ew." She says scrunching up her face "And second of all, don't try to get smart with me! Why are you wearing jeans to a fancy dress ball?!"

"I don't know why you're surprised honestly after 12 years of friendship how do you not get this?" I say giving her the 'Duh' face "Anyway, where's my sister? I need to talk to her about something"

"I haven't seen her since we got here. What's wrong? You seem tense, is everything OK?  I don't think everything is OK. That's your 'ish is about to go down' face" Lexi rambles

I stop to face her "Lex!" I yell as I grab her shoulders "Calm down!"

"I need to find Lexa. Round everyone up and meet us at the terrace, OK?" I say

"Ok, gotcha!" She says, and we both split up.

I find Alexa not long afterwards and when we get to the terrace everyone is already waiting.

"Hey dude what's up? Lexi says it's urgent" Tirique says as we approach

I then proceed to fill them in on everything the rouge said to me, including everything about the attack that's supposed to take place tonight.

"Damn. Alright, we need a plan of action. We need to get everyone to safety and we need to do it fast. Security needs to be doubl-" Lexa says but I cut her off "I already tripled security not only around the ballroom but on the premises and on the  border too"
