A man clad in black darted into the stairwell, with a cadre of suited men on his heels.

Nathan's adorable face was now a canvas of astonishment. 'Is this for a movie? That's so cool!'

Shaking off his amazement, Nathan slowly took something out of his pocket.

The small, delicate box creaked open, unveiling a golden chip, no larger than a soybean.

Nathan scrutinized it, pondering its purpose. It bore little resemblance to gold, and more to the electronic components that Noah often fiddled with. "Sunflower seeds!" Coco, mistaking the chip for a treat, opened its beak and swallowed the chip.

Nathan was thrown into a panic, patting Coco's little green head and shouting, "Coco, spit it out! Spit it out!"
