"He wouldn't be reporting to Recard," she objected. "The man's a fool. Somehow I don't see arrogant Mr Wrekin answering to him. He's gone after Martel, that's the only explanation. Or he's gone back for Sakura. According to my research, those two are as thick as thieves. Wrekin wouldn't leave Sakura behind in Mysteries willingly, he'd try to go back." Now it was a choice between going back down to Mysteries, or trying to find Martel. Lights had no idea what Martel looked like, let alone smelled like, so she would be relying on Wrekin's strong poodle smell to lead her to him.
Lights transformed back into the dog. As she did so, a fiery pain shot through her stomach, and she yelped in pain. It was gone as quickly as it had come. Lights shook herself. She'd worry about it later. Then she took off down the corridor. Alexander Wrekin was going to become pretty tired of Lights Lennox before long ...
Ebony nodded to what Light's said. "Well, we might have to contact the team in charge of finding Martel if he is to go to to him." But then he shook his head. "No, they might be abroad now, looking for him. I doubt he'd go back to Sakura, he just left him."
Ebony started wondering if she could take Martel all by herself, not that he doubted her skill, but Wrekin had demonstrated skill already, and Light's was about to have a baby. Hardly in any state to go hunting after killers by yourself.
He saw Light's yelp, and caught himself wondering what affects transforming might have on a baby. But he didn't say anything. If it got worse, however, he would have to object to her coninueing this hunt. But for now...for now it migth have just been a passing thing.
He followed Lenox.
