Final Showdown - I
"Kalsie... I-I know this is a terrible time, but do you know anything about... Nick?"
"!" Kalsie froze for a moment, his expression shifted.
He turned towards Job with an apologetic look in his eyes, remembering his inability to protect Nick when it mattered.
The change in his demeanor did not go unnoticed by the others, especially John, who hoped to learn more about Nick's situation that might have been the result of his previous unintended action.
"So... you do know something, don't you?" Job's voice quivered with anxiety. "Can you please tell me?"
Although Kalsie was eager to depart and aid Fred's group, he couldn't ignore Job's plea.
