Denise's POV

After a few hours, Kali and I had the place set up, planned and rehearsed how we would deliver the news. The location was a small warehouse owned by the CIA used for interventions, ambushing, luring and other stuff. It was kind of in the middle of nowhere, so we could see who was coming. Kali and I set up chairs and called up some troops to be at the research facility. It was hidden enough that nobody was know they were there. Not sure if this was the best place to have a reunion but this was more than just a reunion. This was serious business.

Everyone was going to be here in a few minutes so Kali and I stood near the door to greet everybody.

"Well, how you feeling?", Kali asked me.

She sensed my nervousness. I was biting my lip and leaning against the door frame.

"Nervous, scared, a little bit excited, tensed," I listed the feelings from the top of my head.

"Don't worry, we met Tyler a few hours ago and he was fine. I'm sure it's going to be great meeting everyone again," she said.

"I don't know. Tyler's meeting was a bit... much. Don't you think?", I said.

"Because he's a billionaire? And has a crap ton of servants? And a private jet? And drinks Perrier instead of regular water?"

Just then, the sound of a car in the distance caught our attention. I push myself up from the door frame I was leaning on and stood up straight. I brushed down my shirt and jacket and made sure I looked presentable.

The car stopped in front of the warehouse and two people got out. Now that the car was nearer, I could see it was a taxi. The taxi drove off and the two people walked up to us. I used my powers to identify them in the dark.

"It's Sabrina and Harry," I whispered to Kali.

"Hey guys!", a female voice greeted from a distance.

They both came into the light and I saw their faces. They've really grown up. Sabrina's hair was tied up in a bun, probably out of habit due to her job. She was still pretty tall, like I remembered her. She wore a dark green button up shirt and some black jeans. Harry still looked like the nerd I remembered. He had thick black glasses and wore dirty blue jeans and a polo shirt.

"Hi there," I said back.

"Welcome back Sabrina," Kali said, shaking her hand.

"And Harry," Kali said with a smile.

"Thanks," Harry said.

They both shook my hand too.

"We met at the airport, and thought to come here together," Sabrina said.

"Yeah, we caught up a little bit," Harry said.

"You both are CIA agents, pretty cool," Sabrina said, trying to start conversation.

"Yeah, we have more to share with you later when everyone else gets here," Kali said.

"There's more than the Upside Down we are talking about here?", Harry asked.

"Yeah, there is," I admitted.

Then, I heard more cars coming. Kali showed them inside while I stood at the door greeting everyone. All of the numbers had arrives before the Party, I looked at my watch, waiting for them. They weren't late but they were the last to come, and the ones I was the nervous and excited to meet again. Just as 7 o'clock came around, I heard the revving of an engine in a distance. I looked up and saw headlights coming my way. The car then turned and parked in front of the door. I used my powers and identified them.
