Familiar voices drifted through the commotion, tugging at the edges of his memory.

He turned to Oliver, who immediately understood the unspoken command.

Norris, Ill check whats happening up front, Oliver said briskly before weaving through the crowd.

Elijah stood rooted to the spot, his gaze scanning the scene when a figure in white materialized before him.
