* Reload for the edited version
[HAWI]
Sleep-deprived and tired yet somehow walking like they had been awake since morning to make Sure Sicario was run well, the Savasci Knights made their way to the operations building where Malika pulled down the wards, letting a breath of fresh air into it.
They walked in like they hadn't forgotten about this bunch of leaders and like they weren't the ones who needed a reality check. But then they had been busy with a lot, especially their hangovers.
There were high chances that they would smack someone's face if they tried to fuck with the lot of them and while it was somewhat encouraging, they were determined to make sure the day didn't start off as bad.
"They are here," the leaders said as they stood at the reception door, waiting for the women who didn't look the least bit bothered. If anything, they looked like they had other things to discuss and an apology wouldn't be coming anytime soon.
"I see you're ready for the next meeting. The showers were available and food too. So, let's get back to business, shall we?" Hawi said as she walked past the leaders and headed for the private elevator with her team.
She and the leaders were offended by what had happened but frankly, she wasn't going to stand there and give them an explanation. She wasn't going to defend anything and if they wanted to look at her differently, then they were free to do so.
She just didn't give a shit about it.
The Savasci Knights were quick to follow their alpha, while the leaders were left bewildered at the sight that had met them. There were no formal greetings, no nothing, and instead it was just Awuor Hawi being her very scaryself.
"They look like they want to kill us," Ruru snickered once they made it to the pirate elevator and wrote that the door had shut. They had been holding back their laughs and now that they were alone, they let out sighs of relief.
"Fucking hell, that was so close. They had this disbelieving look on their faces. My goodness, it was golden," Mbali said excitedly as the elevator headed for the twelfth floor where the conference room they would use today was at.
It was interesting how they were in the pajamas and oily faces not to mention how terrible they looked, and worse than homeless people, and yet even then they had damaged to be the center of attention.
Anyone would have folded before the eldest gals that the realm's leaders have them but then they were the Savasci Knights, a group of warriors known for their unhinged state and carefree attitude.

"Well, even if we stopped to talk, what would we tell them? That we spent the entire night getting high on ice cream? They wouldn't believe us either way," Hawi said and they let out laughs before going back to their stoic faces when the elevator door opened.
"They looked constipated though," Elodie said in a low voice as they walked majestically into the conference room. As the warriors opened the door, the Savasci Knights weren't surprised to see that all the leaders were already sitting there.
They may have had their complaints for Hawi today, but they never for what happened the last time either of them had arrived late to a meeting that Awuor Hawi chaired. It was like they could do everything else but not cross Hawi.
She was a dangerous woman Hawi had scarred them over the years and they didn't want to go through that again, even if there was a chance that she wouldn't screw their faces up because they were apparent allies.
But then hadn't they always been allies when Hawi made some of them hang from the top of the building just because she hated how they breathed so loudly in the morning? Oh, Hawi was a piece of work, but she had no regrets of how she had carried herself.
"Good morning. I trust you are well," Hawi greeted as she walked in with her misfits following closely behind her. Today, they were all in tuxes and looked like they had spent the entire morning preparing to look good for the meeting.
Well, no one could be blamed for assuming so, especially since the Knights looked sharp and hot as hell. They looked like they were here for business and they didn't have the intense urge to yawn since they had eaten shit since morning.
'My stomach is about to grumble. Fuck, we should have eaten,' Ruru whined in their command mind link and the knights looked at each other sharing a look that seemed to remind each other of the downsides of waking up late.
'Perks of ice cream, and letting Sherry go so early,' Malika added and Ruru pouted at her, before she went back to normal. There was silence in the room as the leaders waited for How to say something.
They had responded to her greetings, but then Ruru and Elodie bickering in the mind links about whose fault it was that they were hungry and bothered, made the knights stay focused on the bickers.
To everyone, they looked like they were staring at the leaders and hard, but then that wasn't even the case. They couldn't be bothered by this bunch of people, seeing as they had worked on everything yesterday anyway.
"Anyone hungry? We have brought with us food," Hawi said suddenly and Malika stared at her like she had lost her mind. No one had been in the building for the house and there was no way there was food around.
However, thankfully, Malika used her magic to bring warriors with food to the operations building. She had grabbed a few warriors for the building and put food in their hands making them even more confused.
But then none of the warriors who had food had said shit, because they thought that this had to be because of the wild Savasci Knights. Maybe there would be an explanation someday, but today just wasn't going to be it.
"You can enjoy the food," Hawi said before adding;
"We don't have a lot to discuss as we spent the night working on reasonable resolutions. I wanted to share a meal with you in good faith to show you that this alliance is good to work. You can leave after eating. And thank you for coming and tabling your ideas."
It sounded like she was kicking them out of her pack but then that wasn't the case and even if they felt so, none of them would say anything about it. They were still worried about every sing that was happening at the moment, so they went along with it.
The late brunch was a success and two hours later, they were all done. The leaders had started making their way out of Sicario, each remembering the promise they had made and the agreement they had come to.
There was no denying that there was a danger lurking around the realm and that the pressure on Hawi was going to grow tenfold but they could simply hope that there would come better days.
One by one, everything went back to normal on Sicario.
However, when the last batch of leaders was a toy to leave, the unexpected happened something that got Hawi and the Savasci Knights stepping out of the illusion that Malika had created for them and staring at that reality with their own versions.
An explosion was heard so ugly that it almost shot Sicario. The wolves were not sure whether this was supposed to happen and that too with the best of the realm still in Sicario, or if this was a drill.
A part of them hoped that it was just a drill because this was not going to end well for the person on the other side. If this had been any other day, Sicario would have folded and the wolves would have been screamed their hearts back onto their houses.
However, they didn't. Instead, they just stood there waiting to see what could happen, though with their mouths on the oaks floor as they took in the sight before them. Life had to be some sort of a joke for them or this was straight up creepy.
Simply put, Sicario was in shock; wolves and leaders alike. They couldn't comprehend what part of life this was supposed to be, but even the goddess wouldn't ever be able to explain what the fuck was going on to these wolves.
And even if she did, would anyone be ready to believe that?
The warriors and wolves weren't sure whether they needed to be shocked by the fact that someone had dared the impossible on their app, or they were supposed to be surprised that their leaders looked like they had crawled from a hen's asshole.

They looked like shit, but even in their state, they were ready to defend Sicario.
Ignoring the gasps form the wolves and the realm leaders the crazed Savasci Knights made their way to the Sicario gates, whether they had just heard an explosion. It was like someone had decided to attack them and it was a stupid move.
No one would win against Hawi, and with some of the realm's leaders still in Sicario, this had to be the worst time for anyone to launch an attack on Sicario. It was almost like they had wanted to die so badly, but then was that supposed to be surprising?
"Of course, it had to be Jeremiah Warner. You never learn, do you?" Hawi asked briefly as she stared at her fraud of a mate at the gates, trapped in one of the traps Hawi had set. She had known she was stupid, but this kind of stupid was not reasonable, right?
Surely Jeremiah had to have a brain somewhere in his head, no?
