"So, roughly 40 mins ago," Eva muttered, did the mental maths and winced. They hadn't been able to teleport in directly either. Not without causing a panic. "And the Champions?"
She knows the answer, of course. Or at least part of it. "We haven't been able to locate Iden'no, but we have Okido under guard away from the stadium."
"I," Eva started, low enough for only the kid to hear. "Will give you and your friends a full backstage tour complete with meet-the-team if you do not out me. Please?"
Bribery with something offered to very few people. Yep. She's not above it.
