The Plan--02

"Wait a minute, that rascal's your cousin."

"Well he tends to be sarcastic most of the time." Paisley said.

Vivian laughed, thinking Paisley's words were nothing less than true. The fact was undeniable that Seth was the definite living representation of the word sarcasm.

"Well, I guess the pretty face does run in the family."

Paisley smiled at her words, it was true that all members of the Drake family do look rather pleasing and attractive to admire, especially their elegance and intelligence.

She checked the time on the screen in the ward, seems like her time scheduled for the ward rounds had ended, she signaled Liam who then made his way outside the ward.

"I'll take my leave now, I'll be back to give you your treatment later." She said before she left.

Vivian watched as she walked out of the door leaving only her and Juan in the room.

"She really looks a lot like her mother."

"You even know her mother?" Juan said with a surprised look on his face.

His mother smiled while she looked at his direction, "Is there any lady from this town your mother doesn't know?" She asked rhetorically.

"Well her mother's not from this town is she?" Juan asked back raising an eyebrow.

Vivian took deep breath, her eyes down as if reminiscing about the past. "Right, the past could well die there." She said before making a slight pause. "Anyways it's better you find out yourself if you're that curious about how I knew her, I'm too stressed out to tell you." She said after the short pause.

Juan looked at his mother, something strange about her reaction while he said she wasn't from this town, more like sudden sadness from the past. But anyway, he wasn't interested in finding out about his mother's past friend, he had someone more important to handle.

......................

Paisley sat on the bench in the rooftop, as she gazed into the sky, her coat was off leaving only the the dark navy blue uniform underneath it. She had let her hair loose from its bun and now had it blown by the wind.

All the running around in the hospital had left her sore, now she just needed some air and time to catch her breath.

Suddenly she sensed someone come up. She turned her back and saw Rylee coming towards her.

"What're you doing up here?" Rylee asked.

"Ohh, I'm just catching some air, it's been stressful doing all those rounds this morning." Paisley replied holding her neck at the back and bending it to the back like some form of exercise.

"It's past twelve, why don't we take a walk to a restaurant nearby, leaving the hospital to get food isn't against the hospital's policy". Rylee suggested.

Paisley thought it was a good idea so she complied. Both of them went down leaving the hospital and crossing over to a restaurant thirty meters away from the hospital.

As soon as they entered the hospital, their appearance created a bit of murmuring. Paisley could hear everything as each words flew past her ear like a paper carried by the wind.

The waiter however seeing their uniform had a feeling they weren't here to eat, but rather for other reasons he couldn't think of. He walked over to them as they walked in.

"How can we help you misses?" He asked professionally with much courtesy avoiding any form of offensive tone.

Rylee turned to him making eye contact, "chill, we're just here to have something eat, it's just a break so we couldn't bother taking off our uniforms." Rylee replied him.

"Ohh".

He left them as they took their seat. The menu was on a screen on the table, all they had to do was pick what they wanted and send the request, and then the waiter brings forth their order.

Paisley picked a plate of German frikadellen, while Rylee picked a plate of steamy hot garlic butter fettuccine and shrimp. Their order arrived in less than a minute from when they hit the send button.

"You must be quite fond of meat." Rylee said as Paisley opened her plate.

"Just the want to eat some at the moment." Paisley said as she took her fork and picked a piece.

Rylee opened her plate and the steamy oozing auroma filled the entire table. She grinned as she took a breathing, savouring the smell before the diah itself.

"The smell itself is refreshing." She said with a pleased expression.

Just as she picked up her cutlery to take a bite, the restaurant became still as someone barged into it as of being chased. Everyone turned their gaze toward him except Rylee who was caught up in her food, probably because she wasn't directly facing him.

But Paisley could see him, she held her spoon mid air as she gazed at him. Something off about him being spontaneously evident. Soon her curiosity was fed when just as he was about to run upstairs, a gust of wind blew past amd in the next moment, a guy appeared right at his front.

The guy grabbed his shirt and then flipped him hard on the floor, before sliping him outside as he pushed him out the door and then stood firm.

The guy immediately out of the door, jumped back on his feet energetically, his eyes glowed starry purple as he protracted his claws. He ran into the restaurant smashing the glass but the other guy speedily moving and catching him by the shirt and taking him outside, held him high against the wall.

Their speed was unmatched but their strength wasn't. He kicked him on the stomach sending him flying few feets away, gathering his entire strength, he headed for the top of the building fleeing away. 

"No you don't." The other guy smirks before grabbing a piece of glass and throwing it up at the climbing runaway.

The glass hits him, cutting through his hand and giving him a hurtful shock making him loose control and fall down onto a truck. The other guy runs forward and tries knocking him out before he does anything funny again but has his hands caught by him.

He angrily shouts emitting a ton of purple energy around him as he flings away the other guy onto the wall.

He tries running towards him only to find out he couldn't move an inch. He looks up and sees another guy dressed in a black three piece double breasted suit walking towards him with energy circling round his hands causally.

The guy folds his hands and he feels suffocated until he eventually gets knocked out.

"Seems like I'm here just in time to save your ass again, how many do you owe me now?"

"Three, I guess." Seth replies Aiden as Aiden helped him up.

Aide scoffs, "let's hope you don't get you ass kicked next time." Aiden says again as he walks forward from him.

"Says someone who wasn't here to watch the entire show, I could have killed him." Seth replies.

"Yeah off course, you could have gotten past the barrier around him with just your speed and strength alone."

"It's just a barrier, I'll break it."

"Always unbelievable" Aiden frowns.

Just in a few seconds Paisley comes out to see two of them. She looks at the man knocked out by Aiden's power, he has a tattoo in his neck, one she could recognize anywhere, anytime and any moment.

Seth notices her, more like her scent was one he couldn't ignore even if he wanted to. He turns to her while she notices him staring at her.

"What are you here?" He asks curiously.
