Headline and the Power of Friendship (Book 1)

by Headline

Ch. 11: The Assassins' Determination

After the conversation, File went straight back to the Assassins. He went to report what he had seen that night.

“Well, have you found your brother?” Master Zek asked.

“No, he is really trying to dodge all eyes.” File said.

“It is not like that to happen. It seems he is getting clever. I'm going to pair some of the Assassins together to find him.”

“I don't think that is necessary.”

“Really? Has having one Assassin at a time looking for him helped much?
Suddenly, File realizes that the clock really is ticking on Headline. If a non-member of the family saw him, all would be lost for Headline and maybe himself.

“I guess not.” File said with no other answer.

“Glad you agree, choose your partner within a day, and then you and your partner's mission will be to find him and bring him to me.”

“Yes, master.”

Author's Note:

I know, I know! The chapter is very short but important. As you will see when you keep reading. File now has to go with somepony who will not have emotional struggles when finding Headline. Which makes Headline feel nervous and uptight.
