Chapter Two: Black as Night

[Solace]

Paige hadn’t done must of anything while they killed off the Red Death for good, having stood just outside the room and watched the whole thing with Vance and Norrin at her side. Her mind still was not in the mission, though she tried to force herself as best she could to focus on the task at hand and leave the worrying and pain behind. Shifting her weight from foot to foot, her silver skin glinting in the moonlight that streamed in through a window across from her. She had a look of vacancy on her face as she stood watching the exchange between her teammates and the Punishers, not yet ready to speak up about mission plans.

“Vance, where are we headed?” Paige asked the Punisher in a stage whispered, following behind the young man as they followed his leader out of the building. The young girl slide her wedding ring on and off her ring finger, the gold of the band and tiny diamond being the only contrast to her otherwise silver appearance.
