Puzzle Pieces Coming Together III
Nikolai stood in front of Manny with a sad look. Manny stood in disbelief, unsure what to feel.
"It's been awhile, Manny. You've grown up so well." Number 2 smiled.
"Un-Uncle Nikolai…" Manny whispered. "Y-you're supposed to be… dead." Nikolai's smile faded and he nodded.
"You have the same reaction Lee Seng did when he saw me, again." Nikolai stepped over, keeping eye contact with Manny.
"You met… Lee Seng…? So it was all true?"
"I guess he told you. You two must still be close, hm?"
Manny didn't answer Nikolai. He looked down at his hands and Nikolai simply nodded.
"Why are you here?" Akali asked Manny. "If you're here, where's Lee Seng and the others?"
"How do you know we were all together?" Manny asked Akali.
"We got eyes everywhere." Akio answered, moving past Manny and heading to the front entrance. Manny looked over to Akali for a better explanation.
