-Caleb's pov- (That morning as well)
I opened my eyes to the bright morning sun shining down through my window. "Guenivere!" I shouted in anger when I noticed that she didn't wake me up for school. I stormed down the stairs still in my sweat pants and t-shirt. At the bottom of the steps I turned the corner to enter the main room and saw my mom sitting still looking into the distance; she seemed worried and upset. "Mom?"
She snapped out of her phase quickly and turned to look at me. "Oh! Good morning Caleb." A brief smile formed on her face for a moment. She stood up quickly; "Here, let me make you some breakfast."
I watched her walk into the kitchen and followed her silently questioning what could be wrong. "Mira!?" "Hey mom?"
"Hmm?" She hummed while grabbing different breakfast items from the cabinets.
"Have you by any chance heard anything about Mira?" I asked quizzically with worry.
My mom's face went pale and we both stood there in silence for a while. She slowly grabbed a piece of paper and handed to me. I sat down and read it:
I'm sorry I'm not telling you with my own voice Caleb... I just hope that you can get through this crisis but I heard this on the news this morning...Mira was found dead in the Black Forest this morning. The BKA won't give any information about her death so I can't give you any more information... Sorry Caleb
I looked up from the letter and my mom walked over and hugged me; petting me like a dog. (That probably sounds, weird but it was very comforting.) But, I was still exceedingly upset so I ran upstairs, threw a few things in a bag and jumped out of the window landing on the roof. Then quickly but carefully I jumped down to the ground and I just started running. I ran as fast as I could in the direction of the Black Forest until I collapsed from exhaustion from running too far, too fast. When I hit the ground I briefly spotted car tires and then blacked out.

Sorry for the short chapter. I'm trying to show everyone's views at the same point in time and Caleb didn't do much that morning so his chapter, by default, is shorter. - Taz-
