Chapter 81: Joining Forces

While Lucius and Iris formulated a plan, Axel had one of his own. After taking the elevator back down he exited the building and headed toward the gym. Kicking open the door, he found Gray hammering away at a punching bag to let out his frustrations.

Gray stopped and turned toward Axel who stood in front of the door. He could tell that Axel was definitely not happy about something.

Gray chuckled and pushed his punching bag away. "So. I take it Lucius told you how things are run around here?"

Axel said nothing as he walked across the gym in Gray's direction. Gray held his ground and prepared himself for a potential attack. Axel stopped several feet away from him and gave him a look that would send shivers down anyone's spine.
