"What the hell just happened?" Lucille questioned puzzlingly.

"Exactly what it seems like. We betrayed them and the alliance." I responded dryly.

Ambition's gaze flicked to the fallen Andrea and then back to me, clearly not happy with my decision. Her grip tightened on her hammer, but after a brief, tense silence, she reluctantly nodded. I understand where she was coming from, after all, if I betrayed these people so easily, what keeps me from doing the same to her? 

I might've been forced to accept them in our ranks, but still. It probably didn't paint me in an extremely favorable light.

"Do you want to separate?" I asked. "No one is going to hurt your team now, you can just hide somewhere until things are over."

Ambition shook her head after a few seconds of thinking. "No, we need to stick together in case the two giant groups don't kill enough. It'll fall to us to cull the numbers down to 100 then."
