The officer on the other end of the line was clueless too, shaking his head slightly.
Then he spoke with urgency, "Admiral Thaddeus's psychic world is completely wrecked, and his Psychic Incarnation is gone. The hospital is barely keeping him alive. The only hope is to find Arix, who developed the psychic healer. She might be able to save him. So, sir, we need Arix here, and fast!"
Sykes responded, "Got it! Hang tight! I'll be there!" He hung up and rushed into the medical room, scooping up the unconscious Arix from her bed.
"Sir, what are you doing...?" a medical staff member asked, puzzled.
"I'm taking her to save someone," Sykes answered briskly, hurrying out. The medical team watched him leave, shaking their heads in disbelief.
They turned back to Drexel's bed, only to see it empty.
'Where did HE go? He just vanished into thin air?' They couldn't believe it and searched the room, even checking under the bed.
