*2 Months Later*
There had been no siren activity lately. Odd.
However Raven decided that he would try his communication system to see if there was a signal, although very unlikely.
The admiralty had installed a special communication system that had a video projector that was also separate to the military's, specifically so Raven could call Autumn and vise-versa.
Raven hit ring and put his headphones on.
Raven: Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up, please pick up...
It connected.
Autumn: Asher?
Raven: Yeah...I know, should've called sooner. However it's very reasonable I didn't call.
Autumn: What is it?
Raven: Uhhh...I might have been absolutely obliterated by Arbiter...and sent to another world.
Autumn: Thats less than optimal.
Raven: Yeah tell me about it. So...how's the kids doing?
Autumn: Great! Auburn is top of her class which is History-
Raven: Sorry, Autumn, but what grade are they in, I was always too busy fighting to call for a while.
Autumn: Well, both are in 7th Grade.
Raven: Damn. I haven't talked to them in what...
Autumn: Let me check.....2 Years.
Raven: Fuck. I'm the worst father ever.
Autumn: No you aren't, you couldn't help it.
Raven: Guess you're right. Are they home right now?
Autumn: I'm guessing you want to talk to them?
Raven: Yeah.
Autumn: KIDS! COME HERE!
Footsteps were heard in the background.
Auburn: Yeah mom?
Autumn: Your father finally got some free time.
Autumn was then lightly pushed out of the way.
Auburn: DAD!
Raven: Hey, Auburn. However, be kind to your mother.
Auburn: Sorry.
Autumn: It's fine, I understand, you haven't seen or heard him in a bit.
Raven: However...I can't simply come home.
Tanner: Wait, why?
Raven: I might have been obliterated so badly that I was sent to another world...yeah.
Tanner: You, WHAT!?
Raven: Yeah, sorry.
Auburn: It's fine, you can't help it.
Raven: Guess you have a point.
Suddenly the door to Raven's quarters opens and in walks Yorktown, however she was out of frame.
Yorktown: Wait, Raven?
Raven: Yeah, did I mention I was from the future by chance?
Yorktown: Yeah. Didn't know that far in the future.
Autumn: Can we meet whoever you're talking to?
Raven: Yorktown, come here.
Yorktown came into view and Raven turned off his headphones.
