Red Prophet was on his hands and knees.

No mask or gear.

Red Prophet looked up at Riker in disbelief.

Riker: Heya Red. Long time no see.

Red Prophet lunged backwards.

He seemed almost scared

Red: R-riker!?

Riker: Hows it goin?

Red: You died! I thought you died!

Riker: Nah. Id have to explain it to you later.

Red stood up

Red: Where are we?

Riker: Vyterpet, Russia.

Red: Russia!?

Riker: Good luck getting back to Australia. C'mon. We'll talk about whats going on over a drink. Assuming I can get the cooler to work.

They walked off and Red caught a glance of me.

His face...

Karma bitch...

Next thing you know, It was just me and my group.

Lazuli: Whats that face for? You seem shook.

Me: Its nothing...

Robin: You sure your fine?

I nodded

Me: Yeah... I just need a moment to myself...

Robin: I was hoping you would come get a meal with us. Shift is over anyway.

Me: Yeah... Sure...

I silently followed them to one of the cafeterias.

We got food and sat down.

How was Red Proohet here, and why?

It was a mystery to me.

Robin punched my shoulder

Robin: Ey Shadow. Who was that Red guy?

I sighed

Me: An old enemy...

Lazuli: You suggest we kill him, babe?

Aiden: Is that always your first solution? And dont call him that.

Lazuli: No.

Robin: Guys, we have a problem.

We looked over and saw a few prisoners walking towards us.

They were armed with shivs, shanks, and clubs.

The leader was missing an eye and he carried a machete.

Robin: Viper gang. Watch out.

The leader came up behind me and got ready to grab me.

Lazuli instantly stood up and put her kukri to his throat.

Lazuli: Touch him, and Ill cut out your tongue.

Aiden: Calm down, Lizy.

Lazuli: Nah. I feel like shoveing my dagger up this dirtbags throat.

Viper Leader: I wouldnt recommend that, deary. Were just here for the agent.

Robin: News travels fast, huh?

The Viper Leader leaned into my ear.

Viper Leader: C'mon... Show us what you got, agent...

One of the Vipers grabbed Lazuli and she dropped her Kukri infront of me.
