The one's behind it all

Travelling from Slough, en route to a different city, were multiple vehicles. There were three large vehicles coloured in black, while also behind them were a couple of minibuses on top of that.

In one of the cars, a large SUV type vehicle that looked to be fortified and could survive a thrashing or two, was Tyler along with the core members of the Howlers.

“Hey, are you sure this is the right thing to do?” Olivia asked. “I thought you said we were getting ready for the next Dark Guild Auction. We’ve already cut back quite a bit on our spending, and you told us all to lay low, heading to another city isn’t exactly laying low, and you know as well as I do, that these cities have groups backing them. If they know the Howlers are involved, then it will be easy for them to target us.”

The main reason why Kai and the other’s didn’t join Gary was so this wouldn't be considered the Howlers' involvement. With the more of them going, the more chance they had of getting found out.
