James was on his way towards Alex's chamber when he heard a voice resound in his ears. The message was simple and kind of expected.
"Don't bother. The boy disappeared the moment we arrived in the system." The voice belonged to Charlotte.
"Ah, I see. Thank you." James replied with a small smile. With nothing else to do, he returned to the observation deck to report to his master.

"Yes, that is right," Evelyn replied as she and Charlotte gave a polite bow before standing back at attention.
