Raine and Tyrone soon boarded the private plane that would take them back home. The former had wanted to hold a funeral for Jill and Johnny with their families. As such, she brought their bodies with them so that their families could look at them one last time.

"How about you rest a bit more during the flight? You look really tired," Tyrone suggested as they finished eating their lunch. 

Raine shook her head and whispered, "We have a long flight ahead of us. How about you have a drink with me instead?"

Tyrone didn't stop Raine when she asked for a few bottles of alcoholic drinks from the flight attendant. 

"You know, in every successful mission that we're having, all of us, me and the fourteen members of my squad, have our favorite bar inside our territory where we'd just have a drink and party till we dropped," Raine reminisced with a small smile. "Jill was the best singer in my squad. She never failed to entertain us with her good voice. You know, we always teased her since she loved going on blind dates. She was kinda impatient, saying that why would she wait for the right person to come when she can hunt them down instead."

Raine chuckled, recalling Jill's words as she continued, "Ah, she would always ignore our teasing and tell us how come she can hunt humans but also can't hunt for her man. I guess she'll still be hunting for her right man in the afterlife by now."

Tyrone kept his quiet, electing to simply listen to Raine as he poured her another drink whenever her glass was emptied. Eventually, he, too, joined her in her drinking.

"Johnny is the oldest in the group, right? I bet he was like a father who would often scold you guys," Tyrone commented.

"Hmm, yeah. Johnny… he's the oldest amongst us… Oh, his son just turned seven last month and he won't stop bragging about it back then. He was the only family man in my squad so far," Raine sighed. "I still remember how I asked him to quit already when he had his firstborn son, considering that every mission we had was almost the equivalent of going on a suicide mission. Well, for them, at least. Unlike me, they didn't have a gift beyond their exceptional talents. But then he cried in front of me… asking if he was useless already and if that's why I was dismissing him."

There was a pause… Raine took her glass of vodka and downed it in one shot as she continued, "I told him the reason why I wanted him to quit. It's because I feared that I'll be the reason his son would lose a father. Do you know what that man told me?" 

"He told me that I had no right to dismiss him unless he was no longer capable of fighting for our cause. He said that now that he had a baby boy, there's more reason for him to stay and protect his family from the mutants attacking and hurting humans…"

Tyrone nodded silently as Raine rambled on, "He was well aware that the Moonlight Squad only attacked rogue mutants who were a threat to humanity. There were many of them on the loose right now, and they were brave enough to prey on humans without inhibitions. They arrogantly attacked and killed weak humans who didn't even know they existed. In the end, all of my members supported him, begging me not to dismiss him."

Raine let out a frustrated sigh. She stared at the empty glass she was holding and whispered, "I hate to say this, but you, Johnny, should've listened to me that time…"

"And Johnny will only reply to you now, saying that it was his choice to follow and trust your lead. So don't ever think that it's your fault," Tyrone respectfully added. "There will always be events that are beyond your control. It's his time to leave this world, and he can only leave peacefully if he knows that you won't harbor any guilt inside your heart…"

After a few more sips, Raine eventually passed out. Carrying her in his arms, Tyrone gently put her on the bed. Tears were falling from Raine's closed eyes, and he gently wiped them off. Staying beside her, he never left her side as he joined her on the bed to cuddle her and gently stroke her hair.

Raine only woke up a few hours later when the pilot announced that their plane would soon land at the airport. Tyrone wasn't with her, so she went out of the cabin, only to find him sitting on the chair while reading some magazine.

"You're finally back home. How's your head?" Tyrone asked as Raine sat beside him.

"I'm good. I didn't drink much anyway. I'm just probably exhausted so I dozed off," Raine waved his question off. It was weird, but she felt warm and comfortable while sleeping a while ago.

The plane soon landed at the airport, and Raine was greeted by Lyne, Levi, and Mia outside with the car as soon as she got off the plane.

"Welcome back, Boss!" 

Raine smiled, hugging the three of them for their thoughtfulness.

Then the car door swung open, revealing Aire as she ran towards her saying, "Mommy!"

Raine chuckled as she felt the warm embrace of her daughter on her waist.

Still chuckling, Raine commented, "How come you seem bigger than the last time I saw you?"

"Because that little cub eats a lot, Boss. She's a glutton!" Levi exasperated but quickly zipped his mouth when Aire narrowed her foxy eyes on him.

Aire then looked at Tyrone and said, "Daddy! Finally, I got to see you!" The little girl broke loose from Raine and quickly hugged Tyrone.

The sudden father was taken aback as he looked at Raine, who only shrugged her shoulders at him.

With the greetings done, they were about to go inside the van when Tyrone's mobile phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, it showed that Yun was calling him. He looked at Raine, who signaled him to answer.

With a nod, Tyrone answered the call. "Yes? She's with me. We've just arrived at Country V. She's sleeping inside the van right now, and I think it's best if you tried to contact her again tomorrow morning." Tyrone informed before the call soon ended.

"My uncle's also here, right?" Raine asked.

"Yes, Boss. He has an important business meeting tomorrow morning," Lyne informed.

"I see. Let's go then. Jill and Johnny's families are waiting for us.. Let's bring our brother and sister back home," Raine morosely said.
