Shifting gears (1)

~ the main base of the Voronin family ~

On the next day, after breakfast, Aiden, Sarah, and Hong headed to the area that was set up as an obstacle course.

This event was scheduled to start as the first event of the day, at 9:00 AM, which was perfect because their plan was to leave as soon as possible and return in two days.

Since Sarah and Hong would be watching the competition from the separate area for spectators, Aiden reminded Hong to stick to Sarah and not to move from her, no matter what happens. If Zdravko or anyone else shows up, Hong should either ignore them or go with Sarah.

Aiden was worried because, after the incident with Dusan and Vanya, Sarah spoke less, and her mood was noticeably lower than usually.
