"W-WHAT?!?"

Noah exclaims with wide eyes, and looks over to Selene, who's just as shocked as he is.

"Indeed. She is your blood daughter. Now see, the reason for that is-!" All of the sudden, Digital is interrupted by a chime that comes from his forehead , making him smile, and rush to the door. "Oh, well! Listen, I will explain it in more detail tomorrow, but you two should get some rest. Goodnight!"

And just like that, he closes the door, leaving the two in an incredibly confused state with this new revelation. But not before the entire room suddenly changes in the blink of an eye, now being a cyberpunk styled setting. First, the bed that both Selene and Noah were sat on disappears, making them both fall on their asses.

And as they look around the room, they're now sitting in the middle of a room with dark grey walls, two closets with corresponding clothes for both of them, and two floating beds on each side of the room. But, after having such life-changing info dropped on them, they're now told to lie down? As if this was common knowledge? This is all proving to be too overwhelming for the both of them.

Noah looks at Selene, and his eyes widen. This person, whom he's only known for about a few minutes, is his child. While his mind replays this fact, selene's looking at him with the same amount of shock painted on her face.

"S-so, Selene... Uhh..." He can barely form a sentence at this point, but builds up the strength to say what he wanted to. "W-well, we should get some sleep like Digital said."

"Y-yeah..." She adds on as she gets up, and walks over to the side of the room that strangely has her favorite color, violet, glowing underneath the hovering bed at a dim hue.
"We should..." She slowly crawls into the bed, and the dim violet glow at the bottom gets slightly brighter from the added weight. Noah gets up as well, and hesitantly get into the other bed, which also has his favorite color, orange, emanating at the bottom, and as selene's bed, the glow grew brighter in a reaction to his body weight.

Noah slowly covers himself in the blanket, and looks at Selene again, who's also getting comfy in her bed.

"S-so, Selene..." He stammers out. "I-i guess we'll find out more about... How you're my kid tomorrow?"

Selene looks over to Noah, and can't help but snicker, finding his stuttering to be funny. But even she know that this new info is nothing to take lightly, if true.

"Yeaah, I guess we will...! Uhh, goodnight, Noah." Selene then slowly turns to face the wall next to her bed, and tries to fall asleep.

"Y-yeah, goodnight." Noah says before turning his back to her as well, and he tries to sleep. After a few seconds, his eyelids get heavy, and he slowly falls asleep. And then, he has a dream. In the dream, he slowly wakes up in a place of complete blackness. He can't see anything about two feet away. Only himself. He starts to walk, moving slowly in case there's anything that he could trip over. Then, all of the sudden, he hears a loud ¡BOOM! It sounds like a gunshot, which makes him duck for cover.

Then another comes from an opposite direction to the other, the fire, and the smoke from the bullet visible to the far left. But then, more shots go off, signalling that it's multiple people on different sides, and it doesn't stop. The bullets keep flying, by, making the area above where Noah was standing completely covered up by the smoke trails of the bullets. It's almost like a war at this point, with multiple people yelling, and the bullets being almost never ending. And then suddenly,


he wakes up.
