Chapter 4

An hour later, Adrian walked out of the classroom where he completed his test, yawning as he walked around until a voice called out to him.

"Adrian, wait up."

"Hmm?" Adrian hummed as he looked around.

"Over here," the voice called out.

"Oh hey, Daniel. How are you?" Adrian asked.

Daniel, a dark-skinned male with short black hair, wearing the same uniform and a pair of black shades, responded, "I'm good. So, where have you been?"

"Home," Adrian replied as he started to walk again.

"Ah, what have you been doing?" Daniel asked while following.

"Watching over a charge," Adrian replied with a shrug.

"A charge?" Daniel asked, confused.

"A kid that has fallen into my care," Adrian said as if he was talking about the weather.

"I see."

"Here we are," Adrian said as they arrived at the gazebo.

Adrian looked around for a bit until he saw Shaheem asleep and Sigurrós still playing on his phone. He walked over to them and stood over Shaheem. Sigurrós looked over and saw him and Daniel and was about to say something, but Adrian made a shushing motion with his hand, to which she nodded and made the same motion. Adrian smiled at this, then turned his attention back to the sleeping Shaheem with a grin on his face. He raised his hand and slapped Shaheem on the back of his head, waking him up instantly. Shaheem's head shot up off the table, holding his head in pain while looking around. Sigurrós was giggling at the scene before her.

"Who did that?" Shaheem yelled.

"I did," Adrian said, standing behind him with a serious expression.

"Alright, tough guy, you wanna g-," Shaheem's question was cut short when he saw who did it.

"Hey Shaheem, how was your nap? Did you sleep well?" Adrian asked with a smile on his face that promised pain.

"H-hey Adrian, you're back already," Shaheem said, fear in his voice.

"Sigh, whatever. Sigurrós, thanks for waiting, ok?"

"Did I do good?"

"Yes. Now that I've finished my only test, how about I take you around the school?"

"Yay!" Sigurrós exclaimed.

"I'll take that as a yes. Ok, let's go," Adrian said as he picked up Sigurrós and placed her on his shoulder.

Adrian took the phone from Sigurrós as he left the gazebo and started to walk around the school.

A few hours later at Adrian's house.

"Ahh, home sweet home," Adrian said, seated on Sigurrós's bed. "And Sigurrós is out like a light," he said, looking at a sleeping Sigurrós. "Sigh. It was quite an eventful day, to say the least. Going around the school, meeting up with some teachers and some classmates, and then finishing it off by getting something to eat. Not bad, not bad at all."

Adrian got up and went to the living room to watch some TV. As soon as he turned on the TV, his phone started to ring. (The ringtone is "Wonderland" by Neoni.)

"Hello, this is Adrian speaking. Who is this?" Adrian said as he answered the phone.

"Hello Adrian, it's been a while, hasn't it," the unknown speaker replied.

Adrian frowned when he heard the voice but answered civilly. "Hello Carla, how did you get my number?"

"I asked around the club and, of course, it took me a while, but I got it," the now-named Carla responded.

"Get rid of it."

"No can do."

"Don't push my patience, Carla."

"Aww, is Adrian m-."

She didn't even get a chance to finish her sentence before Adrian hung up.

"It seems about time to change my number again," he said with a frown.

Adrian got up and started to walk to the kitchen to cook something for dinner.

(S.C.P. Foundation Site)

"What's the situation? Have we found her yet?" Dr. Clef asked.

A group of people were seated in front of a multitude of computer screens. They wore similar clothes to Clef, typing on multiple keyboards. One of them turned to Clef and said, "Unfortunately, Dr. Clef, no, we haven't found her yet. We have been searching for any sign of her, but we haven't found her."

"Keep looking."

"Yes, sir."

"Dr. Clef, Site 16 has asked for some assistance in recapturing SCP-682 from its recent containment breach."

"I see. I'm heading over there now. Give me all updates on the search for SCP-239."

"Yes, Dr. Clef."

Clef walked out of the room. While he was walking, he entered a hallway. As he was walking, he saw someone he did not expect to see away from the site he was stationed at. Leaning against the wall of the hall was a man with auburn hair, brown eyes, and a light brown complexion, wearing a similar outfit to Clef. He had a gold amulet with a red gem in the middle around his neck and wore a pair of glasses. Clef walked up to him and asked, "What are you doing here, Dr. Bright?" Clef asked seriously.

"Clef, how are you?" Bright asked lightheartedly.

"That's not what I asked," Clef said, annoyed.

"Oh, calm down. I'm not the only one here, right, Dr. Sherman?" Bright stated.

"Indeed," a male voice stated behind Clef.

Clef turned around to see a male with a brown complexion and black hair, wearing something similar to both Clef and Bright. 

"Hello, Dr. Clef."

"Dr. Sherman."
