For the first time in her life, Juni finally learned what it meant for silence to be deafening. She had just arrived at the slums of the old city, an entire district of abandoned buildings where no one lived, save for the few orphans she had played with earlier that day. Something seemed off right away, but she couldn't get her hands on it right away. Not until her friend arrived.

The Nephilim was expressionless, but they all could sense the rage radiating from her body.
"They're gone…"
There was no need to search the buildings. One look using their special eyes and it became clear that not a single person was inside, living or otherwise. No less than sixty children took residence in those buildings and now they were all gone.
