The crackling sound of fire could be heard as smoke started to rise over the tavern in Sector 6. Between the broken alcohol bottles and the gasoline hauled in disguised as groceries, the flames engulfed the kitchen quickly and spread, sending guests running and shouting. The last to emerge from the blazing building was a girl who stumbled over to the nearest person and coughed out.
“Help…there’s someone still inside!” There was no one inside. It was Noise putting on an act.
Of course his attention was caught when he noticed the flames cracking on a nearby building. He’d take a few steps closer to get a better picture of what was occurring, it didn’t look like a good sight in the slightest. Elliot did not stand close enough to be burned by any cinders though he could still feel a warmth from the area. As if the sight was not already surprising he saw a familiar figure emerge from the flames. He didn’t know whether to be surprised from the fire or by seeing someone he knew come from it.
“Echo?! What are you doing here?!”
