Moonlight Tempest (Completed)

Don't Ask, Don't Tell

Chapter 27

Milo couldn't believe his eyes.

But there it was.

His missing friend was staring at him through his dead brother's tablet.

"Oh my God, Milo! Milo answer me!" Leon said upon seeing Milo.

Milo tried to speak, but found it hard. He hadn't spoken in many months to anyone. He cleared his throat a few times and picked up the tablet.

"Leon!" Milo said clearly. "How is this possible-?"

"The miracle of technology!" Leon said sarcastically.

"Be serious!!" Milo yelled. "What the fuck Leon! If you were alive this whole time, why didn't you contact me sooner?" Milo was pissed. How the fuck could Leon be so insensitive? "Whe-"

Milo stopped when he heard his door open. He saw Sam come inside and close the door behind him. He had a relieved/worried look on his face. Milo hadn't seen him or anyone since Cam died.

Sam's face now had a small mustache added to his goatee. His hair also grew a little. He had it pulled back away from his face like he had run his fingers through it several times. His hair looked like it had grey in it and he had bags under his eyes from lack of sleep.

Sam was quick to go to Milo and pull him in for a deep kiss. Milo responded by kissing him back. They had clearly missed each other.

"I don't mean to interrupt-"

Sam pulled back and looked at the screen.

"Leon? I thought-"

"Oh, no, I'm okay! Alive and well." Leon said interrupting Sam.

"What the fuck, Leon?" Sam said angrily. He pulled out of Milo's embrace to glare at Leon. "You-"

"Wow, you guys are very similar-"

"Interrupt me again and I'll find some way of kicking your smart ass through the computer." Milo flinched at the sound of Sam's voice. 'Note to self: NEVER INTERRUPT SAM.'

Leon muttered sorry and Sam continued. "Why are you contacting us now?"

"Because I found a way to contact you. Before, I had no way. Any how, I found something very important." Leon said.

"What is it?" Sam asked.

"The USB that Cam was using to download Hunter files onto. I can see now that not all the space was filled, someone must have stopped it partway through." Milo froze.

"Where-?" Milo's voice broke. His brother's USB. 'He died trying to get that information.' Milo thought with tears streaming down his face.

"I-" Leon hesitated.

"Where did you find it?" Milo wiped his face. Leon didn't answer. "Where did you find it Leon? Answer!" Milo was losing his patience.

"Do you want the files sent to you?" Leon asked sternly.

Milo was confused. "Of course-"

"Then don't ask questions. All you need to know is that I am safe. And so is Anya." Leon had a serious look in his eyes. "Got that?" Milo had a feeling that he should nod. "Good. Sending the files now." There was a window that popped up saying, 'receiving files' and showing the percentage it was completed. After a minute, all the files were downloaded onto the tablet.

"Have it all?" Milo looked at all of the files and tried to open some, when he couldn't he shook his head. "Whats wrong?"

"It seems like the files were corrupted."
