A few days later, after the incident with the D.H.O.R.K.S. everyone in the office is rather quiet. They haven't had much work today, so it's a slow day. However, today, Blitz is practically sleeping on the desk and is holding the pencil as doing so.

Loona walks to Blitz and asks, "Hey Blitz, you got that paperwork done for dad?"

However, Blitz continues to sleep as he lets out a snore.

Loona places her hand on his shoulder and shakes him, "Wake up, sleepy head."

Blitz quickly sits up in surprise, "Huh, what, who..."

"Uh Blitz, my dad wants to know if you got the paperwork done.

"Oh yeah, paperwork," Blitz says, and lets out a yawn.

He picks up the small pile of paper and passes it to Loona, "Here you go."

"Yeah. Thanks," Loona says, and takes the paperwork.

Then she walks into the office to give the papers to her father. Moxxie, Millie, and the others grow concerned to see Blitz still working and not paying attention to anything unless someone approaches him.

Berry turns to the others and asks, "Is it just me, or is Bitz feeling a little tired lately."

"Yeah. Blitz is like totally out of it. He's been like this for three days," Randall says.

"I have to agree. What's more, Blitz has been feeling a bit well dazed and out of it," Millie says.

"I know what you mean. He barely eats, and hasn't been paying attention to anything unless it's to feed Mimmy or work involvement. I even found out he hasn't been sleeping much lately," Moxxie says.

"Not to mention he's been sleeping in the office," Drew says.

"Yeah. He's been like this since the incident with those Dorks from D.H.O.R.K.S." Randall says.

"I agree. He hasn't even talked to us. And every time we try to talk to him about it, he has this weak smile on his face and says that there's no need to worry about it and all that," Drew says.

"Not even Mimmy is getting his attention unless he has to feed her," Razor says.

The group turns to see Blitz is still working on some paperwork, and still looks tired and dazed. In fact, he isn't even paying attention to what they're talking about.

Berry sighs, "We're going to need some help."

"And fast, I've never seen Blitz this braindead," Millie says.

"I say we're going to need to have a strong reinforcement. We need some advice on how to cheer Blitz up, perhaps get him relaxed and relieved from the stress after being captured. And perhaps help Blitz open up to talk about what's on his mind," Moxxie says, scratching his chin as he paced around the room.

"And who would you be suggesting?" Loona asks.

Then Moxxie snaps his fingers, "I think I have an idea."

Moments later, Moxxie, Millie, and Berry arrived at the only person who might be able to help. That someone is Stolas. As of now, they're in Stolas' chamber to have a private conversation.

"I see. So Blitz hasn't been getting enough sleep and has been uh, dazed lately," Stolas replies, remaining calm, but showing deep concern.

"Dazed doesn't even begin to describe how Blitz is feeling right now. He's like a zombie," Berry says.

"I have to agree. Blitz barely eats, he doesn't really pay attention to us, and barely talks to us. He isn't even paying attention to Mimmy unless he has to feed her. He even sleeps in his office because he hasn't been getting enough sleep. No doubt, something is very off about him," Millie says.
