The first thing the boy hears is a chuckle. The city seems intent on tearing itself from the inside out, but when Beat turns around, Joshua’s there, perched on a lamp post as if that won’t paint himself any bigger a target, snapping a picture or two with his phone of the skater standing victorious over some twice-dead zombies.
Quickly, Joshua surveys their surroundings, clapping slowly when he deems it safe for a conversation. “Bravo, Beat, you really showed them who’s boss.”
Really, it’s a shame that so many old faces decide to show up when the world is, yet again, falling apart. But if it can’t be helped, then he figures it’s his job to round everyone up and make sure they’re all still in one piece.
“Hey. Did you know your sister is here?”
