A large explosion knocked Zinnia to her knees as she turned dazed. Syndicate members rushed to the scene as Zinnia rose, her head still banging. "What's going on? Alton…."
Taking a step forward, a voice whispered in her ear, making her freeze on the spot. "Bear witness to a terrible present."
Zinnia felt herself collapse for a faint moment before coming to finding everyone back where they were. Riley and Haggis were talking over a drink, Harmony and Tempo were playing a song for the masses and Gale keeping Clark in check. Rubbing her eyes, Zinnia whispered to herself, yawning. "I must be tired…. I should get some rest."
