Chapter 61: The Escape

•Nexus City, 5th Ward•

Valerian

Valerian watched as Ana consoled the sobbing children. He didn't quite understand why Ana was so hell-bent on saving them. They were random strangers who they had just met. Whether the children lived or died wouldn't matter to him. To him, it was a matter of practicality and survival. The children, in his view, were liabilities, potential complications that could jeopardize their mission and their lives.

Valerian knew the most logical thing to do now was to try to escape without being seen. It was a feat that he could do easily and he was sure Ana could do the same. From the performance he saw based on her fight earlier, Ana was a good fighter. Her footwork was precise, her balance impeccable, and her transitions from offense to defense seamless. Each movement was purposeful, efficient, and executed with a finesse that was both deadly and mesmerizing.
