We see Jax and Roman in a jail cell. A guard then walks up to the cell. “You two have visitors.”, the guard says. Gregory, Kelsey, Mai and Saige stroll up. “Oi, it’s Saige, Greg, Mai and Miss helmet.”, says Roman. “Miss Helmet?”, says Kelsey, questioningly. “Eh, work with what you get.”, says Roman. “We’re here to get you out of here.”, says Gregory. “Get them out?”, asks the guard. “Yeah well, is there a bail we can pay?”, asks Gregory. “Yes, but they should be getting out soon after 24 hours.”, says the guard. “Really? So what are you two in for?”, asks Gregory. “We murdered a demon with a car turret.”, says Roman. “I almost did that.”, says Mai. “Nice.”, says Roman.

  The guard then chimes in, “Not very nice. Those demons are civilians. And even though they rehealed themselves, that still isn’t good to do.” “The way I see it...”, says Roman, right before getting cut off by Saige whispering to him. “Hey, you wanna serve more jail time?”. “Saige has a point for once, which is scary. You’re better off shutting your mouth.”, says Gregory.

  “I didn’t ask for this! To have me and my mates socked into cells for slaying demons like we should be doing.”, says Roman. “Wow, you’re really going to need to be straightened out by Queen Evelin.”, says the guard. “Now you’ve done it.”, says Gregory. The guard further explains, “Oh. No. Either way he was going to be set straight by Queen Evelin. It’s what happens after you finish your 24 hour containment.” “Is that what’s happening to the whole crew?”, asks Roman. “Yup, that’s right.”, says the guard.

  “Bollocks.”, says Roman.

  “We’ll come back to check on you guys, after 24 hours.”, says Gregory. “Yeah, don’t worry about us, I guess.”, says Roman. “You’ll be fine. Come on gang.”, says Gregory. Gregory, Kelsey, Saige and Mai then leave.

  Later on, the four stroll up to a hotel counter. “We’d like to pay for a room.”, says Gregory. In another moment, the four enter a luxurious hotel room with two queen beds. “You know, this is nice and all, but I already miss the beds at Aurum Kingdom.”, says Saige. “Don’t get too settled in, into the cushy lifestyle or you may end up like King Desmond.”, says Gregory. “Don’t think I could just take off people’s heads at will.”, says Saige. Mai then goes and rests on top of one of the beds. “Don’t get settled in yet, we need to make room.”, says Gregory. “That’s right, we only got two beds and there’s four of us.”, says Saige.

  “This is simple, me and Mai will get one bed and Kelsey and Saige you’ll get the other.”, says Gregory. “Wait what if Kelsey and Me get a bed and you and Saige share one.”, says Mai. Saige then chimes in, “Better arrangement, me and Mai...”. “I’ll stop you right there. We’re not sharing a bed.”, says Mai. “What, what made you think.. uh... I wasn’t going to say that.”, says Saige. “Oh what were you going to say?”, asks Mai. “Ah forget the whole damn thing.”, says Saige.

  Gregory then speaks over everyone. “At this point, we’ll get nowhere. How about we flip a coin to determine this.”. “A coin? You have one?”, says Mai. “It’s an old relic, but yeah I do”, says Gregory as he takes it out. “This coin features the face of the old king of Sapphire Kingdom, King Riley.”, says Gregory. “So that’s Sapphire Kingdom’s ruler’s name. Whatever happened to him?”, says Saige. “He died during the Human and Demon War.”, says Gregory.

  Gregory continues on, “Anyway, let’s do it this way. Each one of us will flip the coin. Whatever side it lays facing up depends on the bed we get. Heads, if it lands up on King Riley’s head, it’s the first bed. Tails, which is what we call the other side of the coin, if it lands facing upward on that side, it’s the second bed. I’ll go first.”. Gregory flips the coin.

  Later on, shows Gregory and Saige sleeping next to each other as Gregory snores. Saige whispers, “Stupid coin.”
