Chapter: Onto The Next Stage

Zane slowly walked out of the room, leaving the others to take care of Deandre's body. They would give him a proper burial as deserved. Unfortunately, Zane did not have time to make such preparations, which meant he had to leave it to them.

Before walking out, Zane took one final look behind him. He met the eyes of Serenity, who now almost looked like a completely different person. It was evident that Deandre's death had impacted her in more than one way.

"Zane!" She called.

"What is it?" Zane replied in a nonchalant tone.

"I understand now... I understand why you allowed yourself to change... This pain you feel is driving you to seek change..."

Zane didn't reply. He wasn't in the mood to discuss the topic. For now, he just needed to find Hades and discuss the next stage of the plan.
