Erste opened his eyes and it was still the familiar ceiling, the familiar room, and the familiar equipment, the only thing different was Erste himself. The always energetic Erste had large puffy eye bags as he hasn't been sleeping well, and his powerful body lay on his bed unmoving.
It has been more than a week since Elena and the others' disappearances. The same as all the other missing people cases, the police had no clue as to what happened. While the police were supposedly doing their best in looking for the missing people, Erste was also going around searching for any clues as to where Elena and others might've been taken to.
Erste had looked everywhere in the city and the neighboring cities but he could not find a shadow of Elena. He was exhausted and he felt horrible, he told Elena no matter what he would find her, he made a promise, but no matter how hard he tried Erste could not do anything at all.
