164Please respect copyright.PENANArUGxcjR97b
The sun is up, but she doesn't know what time it is. There are no clocks. The door to the small, cramped, dull room opens. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAaruwKKcAHK
164Please respect copyright.PENANAsMDhohFCBu
General Peterson followed by Clara. They bring over a chair from the corner of the room, inching closer to Bonnie. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAK6JUsZhJmN

"Morning, Bonnie." General Peterson says.164Please respect copyright.PENANAbEg9K7Hlst

"Okay, we'll talk then."164Please respect copyright.PENANAcqSpJdY7qk
164Please respect copyright.PENANA8vvFeJ9BVx
Clara looks nervous, but ultimatly says nothing. Is this what the term dirty cop means? General peterson isn't a cop, but you get the point.164Please respect copyright.PENANAtRYuWGZiVk

"Did RING hurt you, Bonnie? Your ID is a fake. We don't know who you are. Your photo has been circulated so maybe so family come forward, but if you could give us your name or a family member's at-least-"164Please respect copyright.PENANAJseXtLl0f2
164Please respect copyright.PENANAdw9le0iJ8C

164Please respect copyright.PENANAkep8migaQy
"They? RING?"164Please respect copyright.PENANA66PYkpwZAK
164Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vfm6iSeHW
"No! Not RING! They're not the only ones out there!" She yells, coughing from the pain of the tube down her throat.164Please respect copyright.PENANAikuh5KX45L

Did you ask RING for continued Merge? To forget stuff you'd rather not remember?"164Please respect copyright.PENANARVJBUTmvgC
164Please respect copyright.PENANAk61bzz44e5
"Yeah..."164Please respect copyright.PENANAPQCCIgd3dq

Clara cuts her off. "That's enough. She needs a psychatrist. I'm not going to let you go any further!" Clara shooting to her feet.164Please respect copyright.PENANAzNYnC9HZrv
164Please respect copyright.PENANAVUgNSl34X4
"One moment, Bonnie."164Please respect copyright.PENANAsbtbANz4ZS
General Peterson dragging a protesting Clara out the room.164Please respect copyright.PENANAgLH5eb5ogZ
164Please respect copyright.PENANAoNbYOR6IlR
"Don't hurt her!" Yells Bobby outside who Vincent is walking through the corridors. He sees General Peterson scolding Clara.164Please respect copyright.PENANAKwkkeavFDk
164Please respect copyright.PENANAfE6epPs1Sr
"Shut up." Vincent snarls, socking Bobby in the jaw one. He coughs, few rose petals escaping. White covered in blood which splat to the floor.164Please respect copyright.PENANAUtkAhjCLUs
164Please respect copyright.PENANAqRFVCtl9F6
Clara looks horrified, taking a snap back. The Genereal lets go of her arm, she backs into someone turning around to see a young female with blonde hair.164Please respect copyright.PENANAATTSqnuAqs
164Please respect copyright.PENANAMRk2vBeDSl
She immediatly gives Clara a hug. "It's okay, I'm right here. Things can get intense alot... I'm Allie."164Please respect copyright.PENANAnkcOeqKinG
164Please respect copyright.PENANAM2xD47i15G
"Clara."164Please respect copyright.PENANAUabzhSbNhk
164Please respect copyright.PENANAtVVfuAEmzc
"You're the police officer."164Please respect copyright.PENANAQgQb1I9nz0
164Please respect copyright.PENANAERJBLhrfPV
"You...?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAS7TyUCcxt6
164Please respect copyright.PENANABou61qmxRS
"U.S Military."164Please respect copyright.PENANAEOGNsVcvRl
164Please respect copyright.PENANAkeOCcQCq5F
"Allie..." Interjects another voice. Clara who's hugging Allie looks up to see another female. Short brown hair, brown eyes, pale skin with few freckles dressed in a pink sweatshirt, grey track pants and white joggers. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAUpWKFPMMYD
164Please respect copyright.PENANATPm6eQxnOS
"Oh, shit." Bobby says. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAoBM2fQLAJk

"Where's Maxis?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAJBPWuuLWSn
164Please respect copyright.PENANAmvwgZAP9r5
"Kiera, you need to go back to your room, okay? Everything is a little chaotic right now."164Please respect copyright.PENANA0O4IZmOQi5
164Please respect copyright.PENANAd4XdIEwVob
"Then why you'd bring me?!"164Please respect copyright.PENANAmNSUUPc3sn
164Please respect copyright.PENANAdWlUYhkRgx
"We couldn't exactly leave you. You would have never stayed while we weren't present. It would have put you and other staff on edge with eachother. It's easier to just bring you with us."164Please respect copyright.PENANAk5zdaxMZi9
164Please respect copyright.PENANAvMudLa470x
"Kiera Bailey. Return to your room, that's an order. Maxis will be back soon." General Peterson speaks up.164Please respect copyright.PENANAvOF6Ha1pRg
164Please respect copyright.PENANAO4JM9Lm5Py
"Do you want me to go with her?" Clara asks unsure. "If you could that would be great. Just be nice and gentle with her. If she gives you any trouble, ask for help from someone around here." Allie thanks her.164Please respect copyright.PENANACD5XT8lmS1
164Please respect copyright.PENANA86UgQMggaC
Clara takes a step forward holding her hand out to Kiera. Kiera reaches forward and they walk off together.164Please respect copyright.PENANAhnKQYkBsWc
164Please respect copyright.PENANAAHiIes0Jtk
"I'm still confused. Her and Maxis get out of the hospital for Hanahaki. Is Kiera a prisoner or is she discharged and free to go after us finding out her real identity as well?" Vincent begins.164Please respect copyright.PENANAx0g9Q0RsOG
164Please respect copyright.PENANAxYEDLn2Shz
"Vincent, it's not that easy to sort out. Just drop it for now, there's alot of work to be done. Take Bobby where he needs to go."164Please respect copyright.PENANA6JzOKajdHO
164Please respect copyright.PENANAUJadJt1R6k

"Woah." Elliot says looking up at their surroundings as Nadine pushes open the door. "This is yours?!"164Please respect copyright.PENANAZSYjX3vplx
164Please respect copyright.PENANASpaVWeJv1s
"It is, a safe house of mine. I rarely use it." Kaylee responds. It's a two story holiday villa overlooking the beach.164Please respect copyright.PENANA2rxna3hIbT
164Please respect copyright.PENANAdoKCrEMrYH
"Just don't touch any big bright red buttons on remotes."164Please respect copyright.PENANAcXxpJxe5jX
164Please respect copyright.PENANArLHwNN9qrK
"So, touch big bright red buttons. Got it." Elliot laughs, Levi breaking into laughter and Elliot wrapping his arm around Levi's shoulders. "Ugh, boys never learn!" Nadine complains.164Please respect copyright.PENANACuppZmytNO
164Please respect copyright.PENANAIiWaslLcmA
"No, they don't. Once a boy, always a boy. They don't grow up. Ever." Kaylee smiles, laughing a little. "Come on, let's settle in, make some lunch and then we talk about what we're going to do. We can't run from the U.S and Canadian law enforcement forever."164Please respect copyright.PENANAWErE5T1Hpr
164Please respect copyright.PENANAwKOGNk99wx
"I... I actually kinda miss my older sister right now. But boy, would she have some choice words for me..." Nadine trails off.164Please respect copyright.PENANALF4WB6Enc3
164Please respect copyright.PENANA5soKiN9ZkU
Our group head upstairs, Nadine actually choosing to room with Elliot. Levi and Kaylee choosing seperate, individual rooms. "Uh, so..." Elliot begins when Nadine makes a beeline for the ensuite, running in and slamming the door, locking it. Elliot stands at it, just looking.164Please respect copyright.PENANAKC6BtR9Zym
164Please respect copyright.PENANAJo1ES7oiA9
He takes a deep breath in and heads for the bed, sitting down, looking at his hands.164Please respect copyright.PENANAEgBoNKaLNp
164Please respect copyright.PENANAKmM7MZrFB5
They aren't physically blood stained, but he just took a life. He ran over one of his own. 164Please respect copyright.PENANALtu8zIGueI
164Please respect copyright.PENANAIrYVPuRFtL
Actually, his proably off the team at this point. His for sure going to jail. He sees a mirror sitting on a bedside table and reaches for it, tumbling off the bed. He holds his neck as far back as he can, tongue out looking in his mouth. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAMPHs3Oi1Bv
164Please respect copyright.PENANA6BHiXkuzaA
He doesn't see any roses of any color. Maybe his offically overcome it after bouncing around time?164Please respect copyright.PENANA4yehW7msUW
164Please respect copyright.PENANAS63N9nsb5z
"Are you okay?" Says a small voice. "Sorry, I should have knocked!"164Please respect copyright.PENANAUhrUOV6wNi
164Please respect copyright.PENANAwNdnhq1QC1
It's Levi. "Levi-"164Please respect copyright.PENANAA1LeBZGFk5
164Please respect copyright.PENANAROeuPHy1Xa
Levi looks anxious. "Levi, we're not going to hurt you. RING has fallen. You're free to leave if you want to go."164Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZkMg864MI
164Please respect copyright.PENANA8ETguJGy5s
"Where would I go? This is... Nadine said it's Canada."164Please respect copyright.PENANARyZBO2hZll
164Please respect copyright.PENANARBGsa5axoQ
"Oh, right. Uh, you used to work for a delivery company in the U.S. Vicent was your partner, I know him...
Alot has changed... since RING took you..."164Please respect copyright.PENANA5xG6llED8O
164Please respect copyright.PENANA5UZ7iY8sXX
Levi cups a hand over his own mouth and nose, looking very anxious. RING messed him up. Was he still on the harvest list? This timeline is a few months earlier. He'll have to ask Nadine, if she will even tell him...164Please respect copyright.PENANAR7Xcj5Zzmz
164Please respect copyright.PENANAPrFAHvEmL7
"Levi." He says taking both his hands. Levi's now on the verge of tears. 164Please respect copyright.PENANA5s6bSF0Yul
164Please respect copyright.PENANAZA0dAjgSJH
"I promise everything will be okay. I'll do everything I can to get you back to the U.S. To Vincent even. Would you like that?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAFQwWXUk8B0
164Please respect copyright.PENANAlom0H644ad
He nods tearfully.164Please respect copyright.PENANAVgKZu207sE

"Do you want to get some sleep? When was the last time you had a good nights rest?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAEOggrAG3So

"....."164Please respect copyright.PENANATKHnmwYfMy

"Lunch won't be for a little while."164Please respect copyright.PENANA0bW3O2kDLS
164Please respect copyright.PENANAeJPvKLJMD7
"Can you stand outside the room?"164Please respect copyright.PENANA7XfEeh14t2
164Please respect copyright.PENANAmwvt01ycgS
"Sure, bud!"164Please respect copyright.PENANA8ftuSKeLgv
164Please respect copyright.PENANA3M8kMoj8gU
And he follows Levi who's clinging to him and is stuck standing outside Levi's room. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAbcyT3EGFkb
164Please respect copyright.PENANA0lgMUBKdrQ
Nadine's showering, and Kaylee hasn't come out of her room. The door is locked. Is she thinking? Decompressing?164Please respect copyright.PENANAqAealjPu7U

164Please respect copyright.PENANAoVIc5zgDen
Kiera is laying in bed in their temporary home base. Maxis is opposite to her in another bed and across from them in other individual beds, Allie, Vincent, Thea and Adam. She can't sleep. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAMkVUK47LEv
164Please respect copyright.PENANAovT5lBIxle
She sits up, everyone fast asleep. She stands, taking steps towards the door and pulls it up, a slight noisy click. Stepping out and pulling the door shut behind her, the corridor is sterile, bright, but empty. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAuAeD20ZsaC
164Please respect copyright.PENANAv30PQcLLQG
She looks at the watch on her wrist. 1 a.m to be exact. So much for expericing the hour between 12 and 1 a.m where time stands still. Guess it isn't real.164Please respect copyright.PENANA25WJk3QWm7
164Please respect copyright.PENANAta3ZgLATLj
She wanders along the corridor. Just door after door. Canada's HQ is identical and like a maze. How long before they can go back home to the U.S?164Please respect copyright.PENANAkAOIElG1ly
164Please respect copyright.PENANAglEwBjVG6Y
She eventually takes a seat on a plastic bench, shoulders slumped over again.164Please respect copyright.PENANAvryaRoZqvH
164Please respect copyright.PENANA8CM98hVUMB
"Hello there again."164Please respect copyright.PENANAJR8HSIVWpa
164Please respect copyright.PENANASJsa4ESWrc
It's Clara and she takes a seat beside Kiera. "Can't sleep?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAsp3FhXQU3U
164Please respect copyright.PENANAbf4So27TWr
Kiera shakes her head. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAkbtKvp84Fs
164Please respect copyright.PENANAvsyRFke4CY
"Neither can I."164Please respect copyright.PENANACKrVBqK4v3
164Please respect copyright.PENANAO5ds0LUKib
Kiera gives her a look. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAqm7YsfooN0
164Please respect copyright.PENANAHh5CdN7te9
"Uh, yeah, um, Bobby is actually my fiance. Well, ex. I can't marry him after everything that has happened..."164Please respect copyright.PENANA1ybTcOqBJm
164Please respect copyright.PENANAlA2vES7HZ6
"......"164Please respect copyright.PENANAf7tNge54Ew
164Please respect copyright.PENANAtq7CrjFDzh
"Kiera. When RING held your prisoner. What was Bobby like? How did he treat you?"164Please respect copyright.PENANATPgcQQ3y3M
164Please respect copyright.PENANAQiSSYmANGE
"I could tell you how Nadine May treated me, Bonnie too. I don't think Bobby worked there when I was there."164Please respect copyright.PENANAOZTOmTIQEk
164Please respect copyright.PENANAgVslsxPGkB
"Really?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAhpjUXYocnZ
164Please respect copyright.PENANAfmoF18klaG
"Clara. I blocked alot of what happened there out and I don't know want it to come back. My life is over. A part of me died the day they snatched me off the streets and now I'm just a empty husk. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAygDJ0Zgfwf
164Please respect copyright.PENANAN2ZKZwYqRE
I'm as good as dead now. My career in the U.S Military is over. They're going to medically discharge me, but I'm not free to go at the same time.164Please respect copyright.PENANAKs74n7ZS1i
164Please respect copyright.PENANA76jzx2efBM
My life isn't mine anymore." 164Please respect copyright.PENANAJHVHfLUcPV
164Please respect copyright.PENANAvZh1lfPWiQ
And she bends over crying. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAGKFf1krDRI
164Please respect copyright.PENANA4ctHgRVLb7
"Aw, Kiera. That's not true. You can still make something of it, your friends aren't going to ditch you. Things will be complicated for a while, sure, but-"164Please respect copyright.PENANAEkgWLdJSM4
164Please respect copyright.PENANA6Dh5FgWHEQ
"At the momemt, I just want to go back to the U.S. Did you know I had a younger brother?164Please respect copyright.PENANA6vPfpOjYwv
164Please respect copyright.PENANAgsEHdepFDg
Turns out I do."164Please respect copyright.PENANApAqUi512Xc
164Please respect copyright.PENANARWNHXHTvRc
"Do you want to see him?"164Please respect copyright.PENANA575ueKY7Lu
164Please respect copyright.PENANABdydUs4cKL
"I've already met him once. It was to much at the time. He has parents and a older sister. He got adopted in the U.S while I aged out the foster care system here in Canada. There's no room for me. I don't know anything about him and I couldn't have a relationship."164Please respect copyright.PENANApxTsMLxLhm
164Please respect copyright.PENANAcoeRrA06It
"Maybe it's less about trying to insert yourself and a relationship, it's that you have never felt like you have belonged anywhere before, Kiera."164Please respect copyright.PENANAbmjSzE81hh
164Please respect copyright.PENANAOodIthgcOf
"I don't know."164Please respect copyright.PENANADXm3ErYw2E
164Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rt2voi558
"There you are, Kiera!"164Please respect copyright.PENANAdsOxbAVOWR
164Please respect copyright.PENANAmeCtB1skUh
They look up to see Maxis, General Peterson standing behind him. He runs up to Kiera and guides her back to their dormitory. "What happened?" Peterson asks.164Please respect copyright.PENANA7YwXYpGDVV
164Please respect copyright.PENANAeLzOsS3mvD
"Uh, I think she is now thinking about her biological younger brother and if she has a place anywhere as her life has never really been her own nor a place to call home."164Please respect copyright.PENANApTclm4Kjfb
164Please respect copyright.PENANAHsk7CwGYfT
"I see, I could arrange a meeting, a 2nd one. But Kade would need to agree to it. He might decide he doesn't want to see her after the ordeal he went through. Though telling him their Dad, Johnthan Bailey is in custody and we're tracking down Kaylee might persuade him so he feels safe enough to leave his house after the ordeal he went through."
Clara nods her head.164Please respect copyright.PENANA3WEkhz76hd

He wakes up, Nadine in his face, awake. He sits up. "Yeah?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAjvLNwOyY6Y
164Please respect copyright.PENANAwzZXnOJFUt
She is sitting up in bed. He sits up, looking at the clock on the wall. 1 a.m164Please respect copyright.PENANArm7EFkD8Ic
164Please respect copyright.PENANAARcKRjRs80
"Can't sleep?" He asks.164Please respect copyright.PENANATMSEWb5wmu

"Please promise you won't!" He begs, taking her hands in his and lowers his head into her chest, tears streaming down his face. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAjx90VbRbxo
164Please respect copyright.PENANARPtbhHZHx8
He may not be able to be with her, but it won't stop him loving her. His feelings are real. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAQXB57ZqhD0
164Please respect copyright.PENANACFAAyywThm

164Please respect copyright.PENANA5JgHqA6R7b

164Please respect copyright.PENANAfvSgxVMoID
"What did she tell you?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAckPhrIILiD

164Please respect copyright.PENANAAwtV6dW1DL
"Do you believe her?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAClIvrTzhjD

164Please respect copyright.PENANASJ42Bq2P9h
"Who am I. My old sister raised me, we're here illegally. Our visas ran out years ago, I'm from Russia, but I barely remember it. I know everything about it while my sister rejected it, our parents are in hospital dying here. We're in debt.164Please respect copyright.PENANAR9aouAXvZG
164Please respect copyright.PENANA5pKjMe0pnl
It's only a matter of time before the goverment catches us and sends us back to Russia. Working for RING, they we're going to create me a whole new identity. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAnbvhyJi94S
164Please respect copyright.PENANA6T5nf2FcyH
There was a girl, her name was Kiera Bailey. I was meant to watch her and I lost her and my opportunity to no longer have to hide from the goverment."164Please respect copyright.PENANAX1UqO0k7oD
164Please respect copyright.PENANAiCdGaYPhKK
"Kiera is actually back home in the U.S. She travelled miles and ended up on our base a few miles out on some beach."164Please respect copyright.PENANAUvqM6oYqhE
164Please respect copyright.PENANAtts5ETtpqZ
She looks up at him. "What?"164Please respect copyright.PENANA0SkUIWILT4
164Please respect copyright.PENANAWt6bgn83MV
"She's on the team I'm on."164Please respect copyright.PENANAX74RlMLyQf

164Please respect copyright.PENANAo16yqLa0pp
"I'm sleep deprived, stressed, Elliot and don't know how to get out of this mess I'm in. Good luck to her for ending up there I guess. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAS9ZFxUBKUW
164Please respect copyright.PENANAMWXpC5fdsr
Like I said, RING is no more now. I never wanted to hurt her or anyone anyway."164Please respect copyright.PENANAijkOcyQXAF
164Please respect copyright.PENANAzGGVwMk73c

164Please respect copyright.PENANAGSkb57yloi
"There's nothing."164Please respect copyright.PENANAYhsDh7hl8A
164Please respect copyright.PENANAwTv4F98IHg
"How about I take you to see your parents?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAyv1d22HEoF
164Please respect copyright.PENANAqj4zE5C2tc
"Goodnight, Elliot." And she lay's back down to sleep, back to him. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAHKtKrBnqNf
164Please respect copyright.PENANAw4uRTC5QRK
"Your sister."164Please respect copyright.PENANAIkkf0ax62N

"......"164Please respect copyright.PENANAdIo3671uoB
164Please respect copyright.PENANAME0qNTRghP
He lays back down to, staring up at the ceiling. How are Kiera and Maxis? Soon enough he falls back to sleep. The house is quiet, Kaylee fast asleep in her bed except for one, Levi. 164Please respect copyright.PENANARJOuPbhJ4V
164Please respect copyright.PENANAFpzkQyNph2
He gently opens his door, peering out. Dressed for the cold weather outside, backpack on his back and holding his shoes in his hands so walking down the hallway doesn't make to much noise. He slips out of the house, and it's early morning. The sun only just coming up. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAWyus2b7za0
164Please respect copyright.PENANA6YkbNw4Q7X
Snow covers the place, and it's cold, but he can still see the beach, even if it is semi-covered in snow. When was the last time he was outside, breathing in the fresh air?164Please respect copyright.PENANAybOCNtrSk3
164Please respect copyright.PENANAQ94SoCr5vU
He can't remember, he was trapped inside for years, all he saw was four walls and cemement floor, steel staircases every single day. He drops his shoes, slipping his feet in, clumbsily tying them up and then he runs.164Please respect copyright.PENANAeWFl5II7Vb
164Please respect copyright.PENANA5BlYmz6PbW
He makes it to a phone booth, few blocks away near a gas station. Hopefully he hasn't changed his number.... he stole a few coins from Nadine and Kaylee during the day when they weren't looking. He inserts a coin and dials, a mobile number. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAF24b6aOCnQ
164Please respect copyright.PENANAaCqEY9ZXua
"Hello?" Says a sleepy sounding voice. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAnpwDGwoye5
164Please respect copyright.PENANAK4gFvWzfvH
Levi takes a deep breath in, struggling to find the words. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAGye33Lr4Ta
164Please respect copyright.PENANAWs9ztcrynG
"Hello?" The sleepy voice repeats.164Please respect copyright.PENANAavko6HDWks
164Please respect copyright.PENANAaKs5G16t0V
"V-Vincent..." Levi whispers. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAO6uXduuoQq
164Please respect copyright.PENANAEu7QZbWs2O
"Who's asking?" Vincent snaps back, now a little more away, his attention now captured.164Please respect copyright.PENANAmVBbHped59

164Please respect copyright.PENANABJIGuDmghu
Just drop it and RUN."164Please respect copyright.PENANAXZWIDVMw0N
164Please respect copyright.PENANAujUA9swh6J
Vincent hears the phone drop and the sound of squelching snow. He climbs out of bed and is shaking Allie away.164Please respect copyright.PENANAeDPG4LbKhA
164Please respect copyright.PENANAfLp3Nxdldk
She sits up annoyed. "Get up, wake the others. I'm going to get General Peterson, there is a solid lead on Elliot."164Please respect copyright.PENANAWKc3omBped

Levi is lying on a table at a booth inside the gas station, backpack beside him, watching the fan above him circulate when he hears footsteps on the tile floor.164Please respect copyright.PENANAKlXMJWm1Y5
164Please respect copyright.PENANAWhgLryEUNk
"Levi Preston?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAEph55mbRNT
164Please respect copyright.PENANA4ppRjvNtQh
He looks up to see standing at the head of the table is a group of people. An older man with grey hair and a beard, a female with short blonde hair, another girl with short brown hair, a guy with sleaked back brown hair on the light brown caramel color spectrumn and Vincent. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAAfIXJ2e1jJ
164Please respect copyright.PENANAXY4goBL835
"Do you have I.D to confirm your identity?" The older grey haired man asks. Levi shakes his head, saying nothing. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAx3JRUSgDpd
164Please respect copyright.PENANABihpUhDa3A
"Can you get up off the table, please?"164Please respect copyright.PENANA3CHwgftmao
164Please respect copyright.PENANAtk0JOx72iJ
Levi sits up and Vincent helps him down, he weights practically nothing, skinny while Vicent is taller than he remembers and beefed up. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAxYulM5ocs9
164Please respect copyright.PENANAgDJAHUrl5b
"It's you, bud." Vincent finally speaks. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAoz7CAj1xqG
164Please respect copyright.PENANAFf1WqGqqbA
"My understanding is you're a former friend and colleague of Vincent here. Why are you here and where is Elliot Coleman?" The grey haired man demands.164Please respect copyright.PENANAjandM6IFcV
164Please respect copyright.PENANAw3QRe7coGa
"That's my... boss. Genereal Peterson." Vincent whispers and then Levi realizes, everyone is wearing camo, they're military.164Please respect copyright.PENANABV7smb92nK

"It's complicated."164Please respect copyright.PENANALKffjyzFwA

"5 a.m." The caramel haired man speaks up, and the brown haired female starts to cling to him. He holds her close and the blonde female rubs the brunette's back.164Please respect copyright.PENANA6PvtjCtFPH
164Please respect copyright.PENANAJBbHKi5pTX
"Fine, have it your way." General Peterson snaps, pulling out handcuffs. "Wait, wait, wait!" Vincent begs, Levi on the brink of tears. 164Please respect copyright.PENANAuZtPsGH1eI
164Please respect copyright.PENANAevZOnkH9V5
He places his hands on Levi's shoulders. "Yes or no. We're you kidnapped off the street by a human trafficking company called RING. The employees would have worn blue and had rings that we're a snake eating it's own tail."164Please respect copyright.PENANAwTPO1OMuMs

164Please respect copyright.PENANAvTnrwiZV28
They sent me back upstairs, the supervisor with blonde hair, she told me next week, Wednesday. I came back up, I don't know why. 164Please respect copyright.PENANArehxZbRMR3
164Please respect copyright.PENANAOsnZJ5RwSd
I was going to beg them not to send me down there again, but I didn't get around to grovelling. I knew some dirt where someone was hiding my food, I was going to report that if it helped in not having to go back downstairs-"164Please respect copyright.PENANA7WiLYcABbL
164Please respect copyright.PENANA6KIRFYonaT
General Peterson cuts him off, holding out a photo from the police department. "Is this the Supervisor?"164Please respect copyright.PENANAt4aKTqAUGk
