Cold Yuichi reaches the Yuichi residence with Mika’s letter tucked against his chest. Sable’s handkerchief remains wrapped around his cut palm, darkened where blood has seeped through.
Jaricho waits in the entryway, still wearing his police uniform. Maric stands behind him, while Marlene watches from the kitchen doorway, one hand resting near her sheathed sword.
Jaricho

Jaricho

Marlene
