"Yanjun...I think you're hallucinating. No offense, but it's your first time away from everyone and on your own. You're still-"

"Kunkun, I swear it was Crimson. The only difference was that she had a new hairstyle and the fact that she had a Scar on her head. Other then that, nothing changed well...the look in her eyes did when she saw me, but you know what I mean," Yanjun spoke fast. He sat on the bed in hotel room with his laptop in front of him as he FaceTimed Xukun who stared at the screen.

"Fine. Let's say you did find Scarlett and she is alive and she does have amnesia," Xukun said carefully. "Then why the hell are you only telling me and not Justin or their family? Are you unsure or-"

"Because in the video Scarlett said that she trusted the guy who shot her and that her family trusted him too. Ruibin already checked out so I'm not sure who we can trust. Plus, Justin has a big mouth so it's best not to tell him and knowing you, you're smart and good with computers so I'm hoping that-"

"I can help you find out what's going on and possibly hack into the police department files and help you crack this case like they do in those really cool tv shows," the younger boy questioned.

"Yeah and just keep an eyes on everything there for me."

Xukun nodded his head, "can we tell one more person? I just think that it should be a two man team here."

"Who?"

"Nongnong." Yanjun's eyebrows drew together and before he could ask why he picked him, Xukun explained. "He's innocent and no one will expect a thing. Besides, Nongnong is super strong and he can handle it."

"...alright," Yanjun agreed.

Xukun nodded, his lips pressing together before his eyes lit up with excitement, "I can be kind of like your guy in the chair!"

"Y-What's a guy in the chair," Yanjun shook his head confused about whatever Xukun was going on about.

"Remember? In Spider-Man: Homecoming? Ned was Sp-"

"Now isn't the time to talk about him."

Xukun narrowed his eyes, "you really need to get over that jealousy shit against Spidey. Scarlett's your fiancé. Not Spider-Man's."

"He looked so familiar," Rory muttered to herself as she twirled a knife in her hand like it was a drumstick. Her eyebrows were scrunched as she stared ahead at a wall that had a thick cover.

"Mommy," a little boy said as a man with dark brown hair entered the room holding him in his arms. Rory smiled and placed the knife down before moving to the man. She held her arms out as the baby reached for her and the man handed him over.

"Hey, cutie," she smiled, holding the baby up and pressing a kiss to it's cheek before bringing it to her body. "Hey, Theo."

"Jade left for work early," Theo sighed, rolling his shoulders back a bit. "You know, I can't take care of your kid forever."

"Funny you should say that because it's actually your kid, idiot," Rory laughed swaying back and forth with the child.

"Yeah, well, it should be yours. Maybe you and Kai could adopt Toby," Theo tickled the bottom of the baby's chin while she glared at him. "Kidding. You know I wouldn't give up my baby."

"Yeah because Jade would murder you. She carried the kid for nine months and she's the only one of you working an actual job."

"Because we don't need real jobs. We're rich," he shrugged his shoulders as he shoved his hands into his pockets. Rory looked around the room and didn't see extravagant items and valuable trinkets. Instead she was grey walls, cardboard, and some dust.

"If we don't need real jobs and we're rich, then why do we live here and why do we have to work for the bad guys."

"Bad," Toby repeated.

"We're only living here for two more weeks, Ror."

"I know," she sighed and handed the baby back to him. "I just...why can't we just stay here and get a house?"

"Because we're not staying here," a new voice said. Rory, Theo, and Toby look to the entrance as the male entered. He came over and took Rory's hand before sending a look to Theo, telling him to leave them.

"See ya," he nodded before walking off with Toby would stuck his bottom lip out and waved bye bye.

"You know we can't stay here, Ror," Kailer sighed, his hand pulling her along with him. She hesitated in following him because they had just fought that morning and she was upset that each time they fought after it, he would act as if nothing had happened and begged her back to bed.

She bit her lips knowing how angry Kailer got whenever she wanted to stay in one place so she didn't bother to fight about that.

She hated when he was angry because he would throw things, shove her, and sometimes he would even hit her.

But he had done so much for her. He loved her, right?

He loves me, she told herself but then she thought about the guy in her dreams. She could never see his face because it always came blurred, but his voice and the way he treated her wasn't like how Kailer did, but he was just a person in her dreams, right?

A person that she would always go back to.
