"Chloel"

Luke screamed as he jolted awake from his dream.

The sky outside was just beginning to lighten, and Luke turned toward my direction. His eyes lit up with joy as he immediately lunged toward me. "Chloe, you're finally back!"

It was clear he was aiming for a hug, but he missed entirely, crashing heavily onto the floor instead.

The fall was enough to knock whatever sleepiness he lul left right out of him.

He rubbed his head, blinking as he looked around. Despite me standing directly in front of him, gazing down at him from above, his pupils reflected only the uttering curtains-there was no sign of me. For a moment. I thought he could actually see me, and startled me.

Luke chuckled mockingly at himself, "Chloe's still overseas. How could she be here?"

He glanced at the time. He'd only managed to get two hours of sleep the whole night.

Now, his head was pounding, and as he massaged his temples, he dialed Roy's number. I guessed Roy must have received some news by now.

Beep... beep... beep...

The call wouldn't connect, and Luke's frown deepened with each passing second.

Just as he was about to hang up, the line finally picked up.

"Roy, what's going on?"

"Mr. Bolton, we've got a serious problem. We haven't even made it to the Scam Center yet, and we've already run into a local faction gunfight. Now... Boom! There was a loud, almost deafening explosion on the other end. The line went silent after the blast.

"Roy! Can you hear me?" Luke shouted, but there was no response.
