At that moment, Samara appeared from the hatch of the Rhino and called out to Sunny:
"Captain! We are being hailed on the comms."
He sighed, then opened his eyes and reluctantly stood up. As the Awakened soldier stared at the pale young man with wide eyes, he smiled pleasantly… and then disappeared without a trace, prompting the man to flinch and take a step back.
…Back inside the APC, Sunny emerged from the shadows, walked over to the communication suite and sat down behind a terminal. At the press of a button, Master Jet's face appeared on the screen.
Soul Reaper seemed to be standing in front of a pile of mangled corpses, illuminated by an angry orange glow. Dancing flames reflected in her icy blue eyes, making it seem as if they were glowing.
Set against that backdrop, her smile looked rather sinister.
"Hey, Sunny. I heard that your cohort won its first battle. I guess congratulations are in order?"
He nodded and studied the carcasses of Nightmare Creatures behind her.
