"Who could that be?" Jake murmured, a slight crease forming on his brow.
Knock! Knock!
"Yes?" responded Lotte, following her boyfriend to manage the airflow. Without proper ventilation installed, her presence was key to prevent suffocation in the enclosed space.
"It's General Ryan."
"Ah, General Ryan." Jake swiftly opened the door to reveal General Ryan standing there, greeting him with a sheepish smile. "How can I assist you?"
"I'm in search of Little Kitty. I've been informed by my subordinate that Kyle didn't take her along this time to deal with the giant mutated creatures." General Ryan's smile lingered as he scanned the room, his eyes warming when they settled on Kate.
"Yes, Uncle?" Kate looked up, perplexed.
"I need your help to transport some materials from the outskirts of town to the construction site," said General Ryan.
"Alright!" Kate agreed, her voice tinged with enthusiasm.
