Autumn was skipping through the hallway going to meet up with her best friend, Raven Reyes.

"Hey, Creeper. Nygel wants you to swing by her flat, I don't know what she probably wants, information or something." Raven stated right when Autumn walked into Raven's workstation.

"Rae, I just got here. She's all the way across the Ark." Autumn announced while rolling her eyes with annoyance due to her having to travel to the other side of the Ark.

"Go before you piss her off," Raven stated slightly chuckling at the girl.

Autumn turned on her heels and started strolling to visit Nygel.

Autumn noticed a door slightly ajar and when she peeked through she seen Commander Shumway and some boy discussing something that looked serious.

Tingles traveling up Autumn's arms to her ears, she caves in and tries to listen in on the conversation.

"All you have to do-" Commander Shumway started and noticed Autumn's figure at the door and stomps his way to shut the door in her face.

"Scumbag Scumway," Autumn grumbled at the door.

She turned back around and stalked back on her trail to Nygel.

"Nygel!" Autumn shouted once she arrived at the location.

"Little Creeper, I suppose Little Bird told you to meet me?" Nygel says coming around the corner with two cups filled with some liquid and places them on the table.

"One, you don't get call me Creeper, only my friends call me that. Now, what do you want Nygel." Autumn said becoming impatient.

"Oh, but aren't we friends, Autumn?" Nygel asked while turning her head to the side with a crooked smile slapped on her face.

Autumn rolls her eyes and shifts uncomfortably and responds to the woman.

"What do you want, Nygel?" Autumn asked.

"Sit down, have a drink. Let's chat."

Autumn follows Nygel orders and sits down at the table across from her.

Nygel pushes a cup towards Autumn and sips her own.

"Drink up."

Autumn picks up her cup and examines it.

She lifts the cup to her nose and cringes at the smell.

"Moonshine?" Autumn asked taking a swig.

"Yeah, I missed my little creeper," Nygel said smiling.

Autumn couldn't help but think Nygel was hiding something behind that smile.

She rolled her eyes at Nygel for calling her the childhood nickname she had her entire life, but let it be.

"What you wanna talk about? The weather? Oh, Nygel the sun was beaming today. Sweat out my curls baby." Autumn said sarcastically in a southern accent she learned about in the books.

"Oh, wait...." Autumn said sarcastically, drinking the last bit of her moonshine.

Nygel chuckles and goes to the other side of the flat and grab a container filled with more moonshine.

"Autumn, tell me how you've been? Talk to me, like old times." Nygel said sincerely. Or that's what Autumn suspected.

"Well, this isn't old times but whatever. What do you want to talk about?" Autumn asked innocently and completely unaware of Nygel's intentions with the young eighteen-year-olds being.
