Shadows in Los Angeles

The atmosphere in the hotel room was thick with tension, a silence that felt like it was holding its breath. Ina could feel her pulse racing as she replayed the events at the exhibition hall. That mysterious man, his unsettling knowledge of their codenames, and the way he vanished into thin air—it all left her on edge.
Cassian was standing near the window, one hand resting on the curtains as he looked out at the city lights, lost in thought. The silence between them hung heavy until suddenly, the shrill buzz of Cassian’s phone shattered it. He glanced at the screen, and his eyes went wide.

*(under his breath) “Damn…”
Ina turned to him, sensing the urgency in his tone.

“What happened?"
Cassian silently handed her his phone. The message on the screen made her stomach drop.
> "TWILIGHT and the DEVIL'S Team are on a mission here in Los Angeles."

But he rarely participated on mission until... They are super risky

Then it must be risky since he came here with his team.

“That man we ran into… It has to be someone from the Devil's team. It all makes sense now.”
He began pacing, piecing it together.

“Twilight’s known for hiring the best—the most talented, most dangerous agents he can find. He trains them personally, builds them into something… unstoppable. If that guy was good enough to follow us without being detected, he’s close to Twilight. No doubt about it.”
Ina crossed her arms, deep in thought, the pieces starting to click into place. But something still felt off. Why had Twilight’s team been tracking them in the first place? Was it just a coincidence… or was it something more?

*(suspicious) “But why here? And why reveal themselves now?”
Cassian stopped pacing, a dark look crossing his face.

“That man wasn’t just here by accident, Ina. Twilight’s got a reason for everything. Maybe… that encounter was just a warning.”
A shiver ran down her spine. Twilight was known for being unpredictable, but this felt different—personal, almost as if he were testing them, seeing how much they knew, how far they were willing to go.
The silence returned, heavier than before, as they both stared at the message. The shadow of Twilight’s presence loomed over them, making it clear that they were in over their heads. And somewhere out there, watching their every move, was Twilight’s agent—whoever he was—waiting to make his next move.
