Chapter 7

Violet woke up to the sound of a heart monitor. She turned her head slowly to the left to see the monitor beside her beeping along to the beat of her heartbeat. She felt something cold go through her body, but she figured it was whatever drug they used in the drip beside her. The walls we're white though so she couldn't be in a hospital. Since hospital walls normally had some colour to them no matter how dull and sad they might appeared as.

"Where am I?"

The sound of a door was heard along with the sound of high heels tapping along the floor. Whoever it was it wasn't Neddy nor was it, Agent One.

"Magic Force an old base, your still in Newcastle though."

She turned to stare at the woman. Her skin was brown and wrinkling her hair was grey and wavey she wore a long stunning red dress.

"Agent Smith." The woman said.

"I thought you we're in Muswellbrook?" Violet asked her throat feeling dry.

"I was, but since the two closest agents we're in Newcastle I figured to come up here myself."

Neddy walked in with a bottle of water he popped the lid and passed it to her.

"Thanks."

"No, prob Violet."

"It's been two days and your cousin has called. James, is it?" Agent Smith said.

"Jerry," Violet corrected taking a slip of water.

"I've told him that you will be out of town. Busy, due to work calling you in."

Agent One stepped into the room smiling at the sight of Violet.

"Nice to see you dear. Gave me a bit of shock."

"Sorry, so if you could call Jerry does that mean the world returned to normal?"

"No, they did for a short time after you had passed out, I believe, but afterwards they paused again and it's been two days since. Not one of them has returned back to normal. Nor, have the rest of the Agents been found."

Neddy pulled out his phone and showed her a few video clips he had taken since than the people not moving, none of them we're moving. No, animal, no person nothing. The colour hadn't faded either orange shirts we're seen, along with green grass at the parks. The trees we're still green the buildings still had their pale colour it was all there.

"And, Jerry?"

Agent Smith said she had spoken too Jerry it could be possible, but then Neddy showed her a video of Jerry sitting at home watching TV. The show he was watching was forever put on paused along with Jerry himself.

"Before you passed out. Agent one said that you heard voices. Is this true?" Agent Smith asked.

Hearing voices was normally a worry for the public, but for Magic Force hearing voices just meant something strange was up.

"I did. I don't remember what they said now, but I do remember one sounding bossy and the other was impatience. Also, it happened before I fainted because before than I felt something stab me in the side."

"Stab you?"

"A needle of sorts at least that's what it was at first. Then the pain just grew from there."

"Bossy and impatience," Agent Smith said with a hum.

"You know them?" Violet asked. Agent Smith turned to Agent one.

"Well, what do you think?"

"It is possible," Agent one mumbled. "But I don't remember those two being able to cause this much trouble."
