Fran's p.o.v.

No! Mister Midnight! Please... don't leave me...

Oh my dearest Fran... I'm so sorry. I promise that I'll be back. Please dear, forgive me.

-Mister Midnight!

-What? What's going on?

I turned over and saw Sal Fisher in shock and worry. It appears that I was asleep on a couch. I looked at my surroundings and a cat was sitting on my lap.

-Purrrrrrrrr...

-Oh my f*cking god, Gizmo, he said as he face-palms and sighs, I'm sorry, did you have a nightmare?

-Ahh, yes, I did... but, it's nothing to worry about.

-Nothing to worry about? What do you mean by that? I remember you told me you lived in a asylum. On top of that, you collapsed after an enormous f*cking demon has... uh... I dunno what it did to you.....

-Enormous demon?

-You don't remember? Floating demon with a goat skull as a head?

He... he's talking about Remor... 

-What? You don't? I swear I'm not crazy. 

-I do remember. 

-Than why didn't you say anything?

-It's quite complicated... and where am I?

-Ah! You're in my apartment.

-I see... what time is it and where's Adelaida?

-It's 4 pm and she's at Larrys place.

I stood up and said that I needed to leave with Adelaida but, I felt a paw grabbing on to my dress.

-Gizmo! NO!

Sal picked the cat up and forced it to let go of my dress. 

-I'm so sorry... Gizmo can be a little sh*t sometimes.

-No, it's fine, he's lucky that I like cats, hehe.

-Do you have a cat? He asked with curiosity in his eyes as if he desperately wanted to know.

-I... I used to...

Sal seemed like he was "pleasantly" shocked. I wondered why. He then offered me to carry Gizmo and...

HOW CAN I POSSIBLY RESIST???????

The little guy was just soooo cuuute!!!!! And I was never so happy ever since my own kitty disappeared. 

I swung him around like he was a newborn but, I don't think that he enjoyed it as much as I did...

-You really like cats, do you? Sal chuckled.

-I don't just like them, I LOVE them, I said while squeezing Gizmo in my arms.

Gizmo coughed. As soon as he did, I put him down and he walked away. He looked back and pouted. I chuckled and said: "I don't think he really likes me, does he?"

Sal replied with: "Nah. Just give it some time and he'll give you his respect."

-Well, I need to go home. With Adelaida.

-Alright, follow me.

When we left the apartment, I took a good look at the hallway. The doors were of a green color and the wallpaper had a vertical stripe pattern. Rather normal looking. Too normal that it's weird. I don't know what I was expecting. Maybe something more breathtaking. We entered the elevator. Right before the doors close, the Ultrareality appeared for just millisecond. A dark shadow figure was standing outside the elevator. I recognize that appearance anywhere. I gasped and hit a wall that was behind me. Sal looked my way.

-Huh? he interjected. You don't like elevators?

-No... I replied. I quite dislike them. You won't know if you'll get trapped in one.

-I never thought of that... Now that I am, in this elevator, it might be possible, he said in a serious tone.

-What? What do you mean? I asked in sudden panic.

-Ehh? Don't tell me you're actually scared! he teased.

-That's not what I meant! Well, actually, I'm quite brave! And I like to brag about that! I said confidently.

-Alright, Miss Perfect.

-Hmph.

We finally got out of the elevator. I looked back to check it once more but, nothing was happening at that moment. We intruded Larry's apartment and his room. Adelaida was happily painting with him. Campbell and Morrison was there too.

-You're awake! Campbell said with relief.

-Awesome! Johnson said. Lil' Ade has real talent with her too!

-I'm glad that she didn't give you much trouble, I said.

-Oh, not at all. She was a sweetheart! Campbell said.

-Thank you for helping us. We'll be leaving now.

I saluted them and everyone else waved. We left to go "home".

I swore, I saw a kamala there. But, what was it doing? Who's kamala is it? Or is it just a independent one?
