CHE5TER seems to be awakening in His room, getting up from the bed and looking around. RY4N isn't present, maybe because He woke up a bit later than everyone else, so He decides to leave the room and begin His daily routine. He walks around the hallway, responding with just a quick gesture to everyone that greets Him and going towards His office.
But something makes Him stop from sitting on His chair just as He uses to, or even arriving at it in the first place, yet He doesn't say anything. He just gives such a weird expression for a second, before waking up to reality and finally sitting down.
"...Something's changed. It's not happening again, is it? No... It can't be happening again..."
Minutes later of just standing on His chair and doing nothing, RY4N makes his appearance, opening the door and greeting the Great Leader.
[RY4N]-Hey, CHE5TER. Anything new for today?
[CHE5TER]-...Hm? Oh, RY4N. No, not really. Why do you ask?
[RY4N]-Well, I mean, shouldn't you be with the stranger? I would assume that you've remained because you wanted to do something or tell me a new information. Am I not right?
[CHE5TER]-I didn't have anything in mind though. Is it a bad thing?
[RY4N]-No, but I was just saying... Oh, right! Since you are here, I have something to say. The soldiers ask if we are suppose to do any missions from the next month near the end of the year. Some say that it would be a bit risky since the whole City of Above goes in isolation and are very close and cautious towards our entrances. Do you suggest anything in particular?
[CHE5TER]-Not really. We will stop just during the storm, but the other days will continue the normal schedule.
[RY4N]-Alright, then I got my answer.
[CHE5TER]-Good. I was thinking of taking my leave now anyway. I have something to do before I go back.
[RY4N]-Oh? Like what? 
[CHE5TER]-It's nothing, really. Don't worry.
So, He gets up and goes towards the exit, with such a weird expression, stopping in the middle of the way and looking back at His brother.
[CHE5TER]-...Hey, RY4N?
[RY4N]-Hm?
[CHE5TER]-Are you afraid of the Light?
RY4N was confused though, but the Great Leader didn't add anything else, leaving and closing the door. What's stranger though... is that the moment the door closed, RY4N's expression turned rather into anger, seriousness and mercilessness, giving his silent answer.
[RY4N]-...No.
Meanwhile, CHE5TER simply walks around the hallway again, but going towards the exit of the base... while a noise stops Him from getting any further. Behind Him was a little light, watching Him from afar and making such moves as if it tries to tell Him to follow it.
"...Of course. It is happening again."
He doesn't follow it thought. He goes further on His road while the noise gets louder and louder the more the distance increases. He then tries to search for something around His pockets, not too obvious, but seeming as He doesn't succeed to find it. Then He tries to create that something, but for some reason, His powers don't work. Out of options, He turns around angry at the little light, answering its call.
