It was the next day and the sun was going to rise soon. You and the others were all heading to Moray Towers together. Each of you had your guess as to who the person was though you weren't sure about any of them.

You arrived and saw the person in the cloak standing on the edge on the top of the tower, waiting for you. The person didn't notice you arrive at first and stared at the rising sun.

"...you wanted to see us?" You said. The person looked at you for a moment, their face hidden under the hood of their cloak. They nodded then turned to face you.

".....Y/N...." she said quietly.

"How do you know my name?" You looked at the others. They looked back then at the person.

"Who are you?" Asked 3.

"Heh.....hehe....hahaha...hahahaha!" She bursted out laughing.

"What so funny?" You asked.

"Is she crazy or....?" Said 4.

"Ha....I apologize. I just find it a bit funny...." the figure lifted her hood with her left hand to reveal her face. Your jaw dropped and all of you stared in absolutely shock.

In front of you, was an octoling girl, with pink tentacles, black and purple headsets, a golden heart locket, bright red eyes, and a big, bloody scar on her cheek.

"Heh...I guess I can't blame you for forgetting about me. It has been a while after all." She said, a smile on her face.

You stared at her in shock. It was her. It was really her. You felt your cheeks heat up and you couldn't tell if you were happy or mad. You walked up to her without a word. She stopped smiling and looked at you.

To her surprise, you punched her in the stomach. It wasn't hard or anything. She looked down at your hand and you didn't remove it from her stomach.

"....and what did I do to deserve this?" She asked jokingly. You pulled her into a hug.

"What do you think? You left for years....dammit H....." this made her chuckle. She placed her hand on your head and gently smiled.

"Sorry about that. I didn't mean to worry you. If it helps, I was thinking about you most of the time." You blushed and she laughed. "Hehe but for real, I did miss you a lot. I won't leave again. I promise."

"Good..."

"Agent H," Captain Cuddle Fish cleared his throat and you let go of Headsets. She stood straight and her expression changed. She looked more serious now. "I am glad to see that you are alright. How did your mission go?"

"...Sadly, it was a failure. Nothing. There was absolutely no land or any other sign of intelligent life. The little life there is out there is...less that reasonable...." she sighed, looking down.

Captain nodded and looked down as well. 4 ran to her and hugged her. "Heya H! You remember me, right?! It's been a while!"

"Yes 4, I remember you. I wasn't gone for that long." You noticed how she made sure no one saw under her cloak. The little bit that was exposed was only enough room to see her left arm.

"Where'd you get the cloak? You look like a vampire or something." 4 said, trying to see under it but Headsets made sure she couldn't.

"O-oh well, my jacket ripped so I made this out of some fabric I had... it was pretty rough out there to be honest..."

"And where did you get that scar from?" Asked 3. Headsets placed her hand gently on her cheek right under her scar.

"....it's nothing. Just a scrape. I've gotten worse." She let out a small chuckle but you knew it was forced. She was definitely hiding something from you. Something important.

"You're probably tired. You should go to rest a bit. We can talk more later." Captain smiled and Headsets nodded.

You and Headsets said goodbye to the other agents and you left with her to your house. She was quiet and didn't say much. She also avoided eye contact, witch was starting to annoy you a bit.

When you got home, you gave her some clothes for her to wear and she went to get changed. You put on your own pyjamas and waited for her in your room.

When she got back, she still had her cloak on. Ok, now you knew for sure she was hiding something. The cloak mostly covered her right arm, leaving it completely unseen.

"Headsets, you can't sleep with that, you know that, right?" You crosses your arms and looked at her. She put her left hand on the back of her neck and gave a small chuckle.

"W-why not? I don't see a problem with it..." she stopped when she saw the look you were giving her. She sighed and glanced at her right arm. "...do I have to?"

"Yes. You do." She sighed again and removed her cloak. You just stared at her arm, speechless. "Y-Your...your arm...it's...."
