His grandfather was unusually late. Marcus usually arrived at this time to cook dinner with the fish he had caught. All of this was normal, however.

'That girl! This is bad. Bad bad bad.'
The sharper senses he had after contracting with Ibaraki allowed him to pick up sound from far away. If he concentrated, he could even hear a drop of water from 100 meters away.
