Leonard Churchill and Seven Brown entertained each other with idle chat while attending to their individual tasks.
Unbeknownst to them, a few red-eyed rats had been observing them from the shadows.
Time flew by unnoticed.
"Huff..." "Huff..."
Looking at the clock that was about to hit seven, Leonard paused his tasks and wiped away the perspiration forming on his forehead.
Then, he sat cross-legged and became deep in meditation.
Neither of the two had any idea what they were waiting for.
But all they could do was wait.
"Tick" "Tick" "Tick"...
The surrounding was very quiet, the movement of the hands on the pocket watch could be clearly heard.
All of a sudden, Leonard opened his eyes and quickly glanced towards the dark tunnel not far away, murmuring, "They're here."
He checked the time - it was exactly seven.
Almost immediately, Seven also turned his head towards that direction.
The sound of footsteps started to echo from the tunnel.
