After opening the door, Nick looked at the other end of the Containment Unit with an uncertain expression.
In one of the corners of the room was a perfectly white and fluffy little dog.
Funnily enough, the dog had been pretty dirty all the time while it had been in the Dregs, but as soon as it arrived here, all the dirt vanished.
'Most likely a camouflaging ability,' Nick thought as he took another deep breath.
The Puppy was lying on the ground and whimpering silently.
The sound made Nick feel like his heart was being torn apart.
The poor thing.
Was it in pain?
However, Nick kept his mind under control and kept telling himself that this was a Specter.
The Puppy might be fluffy, white, cute, adorable…
He had to stay in control.
Nick wanted to do nothing but walk over to hug and comfort it.
He just wanted to tell it that everything was going to be okay.
But Nick kept himself in check.
