It was a normal day at the station or so Drake had thought, they been out. They dealt with some criminal activities and arrests were made. Drake was having a laugh at and conversations with his team - only he was laughing at the words Kenneth was saying to the secretary regarding never getting a chance with Drake, Conners really couldn’t help himself to laughing so hard about it as he walked up a couple steps to the higher lever closer to his office about to go in. Kent crossing his arms and shaking his head when Drake tried to pull him into the topic for him to bug Kathy. “No way man.” Kent would say several times. Another laugh would leave Drake when he turned his head to look who was coming in side the station.

67. “The world will eat you if you let it. That’s why it’s everyone for themselves. But here, you’ve got loyalty.”

Sometimes, it was okay to voice the things that they both knew. That the world was cruel, that those within it would quickly take advantage of someone if given the chance. In fact...they'd had this very discussion about his family very early on in their relationship and it often came up, even around why he couldn't trust her.

Telling him he had her loyalty, though, it was a bold move, and one that she didn't think he would take seriously. In fact, it had been difficult for her to admit, but deep down, she knew it was true. There had been no one else for her in their centuries-long tryst. At least, not anyone in the way that he might think there was.

"You can look at me like that all you want, mi vida, but it is simply the truth. My loyalty is yours, no matter the wounds and scars. No matter the times when hatred is the only shared emotion. I will never be able to turn my back on you and our connection."

Vulnerability was not something she ever wanted to show, but Luis drew it from her far more easily than she would care to admit. Now she felt like she was standing before him with her heart in her hands, dripping with fresh blood and waiting to see if he would devour or cradle it.

The grunt dragged his hands down his face, tears staining his gloves as he tilted his head back and looked to the ceiling. Ashe has locked himself in a small closet in the hall of Team Rocket’s hideout.

How long has he been trapped in this job? How much longer must he do this? What did he do to deserve this? All he wanted was to care for his wife and give her a proper funeral and to be able to care for his daughter.

But no…

Now he’s wrapped up in some horrid organization that’s slowly killing the bonds between himself and the only person he has left in his pathetic life…

“That was rough back there... Glad we came out in one piece...”

Ashe sat cross legged as he gently tended to Jessie’s wounds. Once he finished bandaging the minor scratches, he began wrapping her shoulder.

They had been assigned to each other for a heist at a poke center but things went south and the two had to retreat. Both had taken a beating and now Ashe was patching up the young woman.

In all honesty, Ashe felt bad that Jessie had gotten so hurt. Normally, he didn’t care for his co-workers but..Jessie is so young...And seemed so uneasy since she wasn’t with her normal partners. It bothered Ashe seeing such young members in Team Rocket, considering he’s a father. He couldn’t help but want to watch over them more...
