It was the next day and Boyd powered himself back on at exactly 6 AM. He looked over at Mark who was sprawled out on the fancy ass couch in their room. He fell asleep watching TikTok.
Boyd got up and attempted to poke him awake.
Mark rolled in his sleep. "Nah dude! Give me five more minutesssss!" He whined.
"I apologize for waking you, but Ellie never returned with my warm milk last night. It appears she is still not here."
"Huh?" Mark looked around the hotel room and then at his phone to check the time. It was six in the fucking morning?! There were also no texts from her although that wasn't out of the ordinary. She never texted that much anyways. "Are you sure? She probably just left to go do something I dunno." He knew that she was a morning person but what she did every morning he had no clue! Probably arson. He was asleep for all of it every time.
"I am most certain. She informed you last night that she would return in approximately ten minutes. After 59 minutes and thirty-two seconds, I decided to shut down. I figured she must have gotten distracted, but it has now been eight hours and ten minutes since her last appearance." Boyd stated. "She also informed me she would wake me up to get breakfast around 6:30 AM which is only twelve minutes away from now."
"Who eats breakfast at 6:30 in the morning?!" Okay it wasn't the time for that. Mark continued. "Okay it's chill, sport. I'll just call her." He rubbed his face to try and wake up while he tried calling Ellie. No answer. "Weird... I wouldn't worry though. She'll come back!"
"No offense, Mark, but I don't believe you are thinking reasonably. Ellie seems like a very timely and punctual person from what I can tell. I have grown to like her and it makes me upset that she is gone."
Mark tried calling her again. No luck. He got up from the couch and stretched. "You're right, Boyd. Alright tell you what, let's roam around the hotel together and look for her. And we can also get breakfast. Cool?"
Boyd nodded. "Cool."

Future Gloria sat inside a cafe, waiting for Heidi who was going to meet up with her and tell her what went down in New Orleans.
And who was with Future Gloria? Her 'best friend' Glomgold of course. And Fluffy.
"OI, GLADIS! GIMMEH ME CHOCKY MUFFEN!" He held out his grubby little hands.
Gloria sighed. "You ate all of them five minutes ago. Remember? Just sit there and be quiet for once in your life."
"BUT I WANT ANOTHERRRRR!"
While Glomgold was throwing a mini tantrum, and Fluffy started barking, Heidi approached.
"Hey, Glo. Hey... other guy." She sat down. "Man, it was hard to contact you. Glad I could."
"Hey, Heidi! How was everything? Are you good?" She seemed fine but Gloria felt like she should ask anyways.
"I GOTTA PEH!" Glomgold got up and carried Fluffy with him to the bathroom, leaving Heidi and Gloria alone. Glomgold didn't actually need to pee, he just didn't want to be around girls having girl talk.
"I'm good. Everyone in my gang was taken down, except for Dingy and Vic, but you probably know they aren't a threat." Heidi laughed. "As for your friends, no one was hurt, excluding when El was shot in the leg, but the little guy fixed that. Nothing happened that was in your notebook." She paused. "But... I guess the kid sorta got hurt. He, uh, he lost his memories..."
"What? Boyd lost his memories?" She looked worried. "I haven't heard of that happening before! He's okay though, right? Just his memories are gone? What is Gyro doing about it?" Damn it was just one question after another.
