Kai (19) and Zayn (32),, what irritable people But yeah,, so in the Army AU where Micah is never present- things go a bit differently. Since the SSC and Ichor army territory are so close, often on patrols, soldiers would come in contact with the opposing side, and there would be several issues. So on one occasion, out of sheer stubbornness and really- just Kai being an idiot, she walked into the Ichor army’s side, unarmed. She was promptly captured and hauled back to their base. Where she encountered Zayn. Yeah so, homeboy was not happy to see her so he was like “mf, what the hell are you doing here?” And Kai explained she wanted to discuss options with Alec. Zayn literally laughed in her face and called her an idiot- but she was like “lmao yeah, keep laughing, if you don’t let me speak with Alec, there’s going to be serious repercussions. My men have missles directed towards the camp, and I’ve given them the orders that if I’m not back by tomorrow night, they must shoot.. so, I suppose your father

Has no choice but to listen to me and negotiate or just send me back to camp.” And so this kinda freaked Zayn out because he had gotten word from one of the spies residing in the SSC that they were working on new artillery,, so he reluctantly brought Kai to Alec, where Kai basically bullied him into giving up an even larger portion of the water resivoir and she ensured the border patrols wouldn’t end with anymore violent fights,, or there would be serious consequences. But yeah Knowing that the SSC is batshit crazy, Alec ordered the soldiers to haul her back to the border and release her back to her camp

So,, with Kais idiotic actions,, occasionally good comes from it Also the Ichor army is promptly trying to relocate since they know their base is compromised.
