After spending the last few hours with Yang, they finally arrived back just in time for Blake to go to work. They said their goodbyes as they headed their ways. Tonight would be a long one Blake thought to herself as she walked through the doors as she clocked in for work. As soon as she had settled behind the desk, Blake was informed that Ilia wanted to talk with her. She knew what this was going to be about, so she quickly headed to where ilia had been working a floor up and was surprised when she came face to face with another blonde along with an unfamiliar blue-haired male and Ilia.
"Hey, Blake." Ilia said stepping next to Blake" This is Sun, which I'm pretty sure you know and this is his friend Neptune," She said as Neptune waved at her flashing a smile.
"Nice to meet you, Neptune"
"Likewise"
"Now that we have introductions out the way Blake did you hear the news about Adam's release," Ilia said
"I don't know why they'd let an asshole like him out" Sun chimed in before Blake spoke.
"Yeah, but I'm kind of not too surprised he does have a lot of followers some who work in the system."
"Of course he does, I still do not get why people even listen to him"
"I mean we did at one point but we felt like we had no other choice because of his manipulating and blackmailing," Blake said as her ears pinned against her head. "and I do not want to go through that ever again"
"I swear if he tries anything I will kill him myself. But to avoid him even reaching you we have to come up with a plan and Blake we're going to have to warn the others, we don't have to tell them everything if you're not ready but at the least, I think we should warn them."
" Yeah, I just don't want to scare them off"
" I get that but knowing them they'll stay by your side just as we are," Sun replied giving her a light smile.
For the next 15 minutes, they discussed what they should do, and they finally came to the conclusion that they'd have someone either by her side or watching from a distance to make sure no one suspicious came near her. They also decided to get some help from one of Neptune's friend would try to hide Blake's attendance at the school. And would reach out to some old friends to see what information they could get on Adam. The plan although set made Blake a little wary of her future as she feared what could happen if Adam ends up finding her. She hated the fact that after grasping the feeling of freedom all to be taken away by Adam. She continued her night pushing back the fears she had and started to think about how much calmer she felt when she was around Yang. She could admit there was something different about Yang that she wasn't used to, she wished they had met under different circumstances. There was so much she wished she could tell Yang but she feared scaring her off, yes Yang is a good person, probably one of the kindest Blake has ever met, but she knew that the baggage Blake carried with her might be a little too much for Yang or anyone to handle. But, she was content that they had stayed with her as long as they did now. She finished off her workday soon enough, and as she clocked out Sun waited for her at the exit.
"Hey Sun"
"Hey Blake, how was work?"
"It was great, thank you. And Thank you for earlier"
"No problem Blake, It's my job to keep everyone safe," Sun said pointing at his badge "Now let's head out "
They drove in silence for a couple of minutes before they finally arrived at Blake's dorm. They said their goodbyes as Blake thanked Sun again as he promised to make sure they would do everything they could to make sure Adam never came close to Blake or anyone close to her. And with that Blake headed back to her dorm finding Yang studying silently with her headphones in before she lightly tapped Yang causing her to jump a little as they greeted each other before they decided to get a little homework done together before they finally called it a night and headed to bed.
