Tom's eye visor lit up the dark alleys of what used to be his old homeplace with his old roommates, Matt and Edd. It was now destroyed, or with other structures rebuilt up from The Red Leader. As he continues walking, he notices that the once familiar pathways have been reshaped and altered. Buildings that were once standing tall now lay in ruins, and new structures loom in the distance, imposing and intimidating.

Matt looks around at the surroundings. It felt like it all happened too fast. One day they were all chilling in the house, the next The Red Leader suddenly showed up out of nowhere and claimed ownership over everything they had in the area.

Tord stands before the ruins of what used to be Tom's home, a smug grin plastered on his face. "What a sight," he says, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Used to be such a nice place, before I came along." He scans the area, taking in the destruction and chaos that has reigned in his wake.

Tord can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as he imagines the fear and despair that must be coursing through his former friends' minds. But he quickly shakes off those thoughts, his expression hardening into a stern scowl. "No time to get soft now," he mutters to himself. "I have a world to conquer." To the fact, Paul came in.

Paul stands a few steps behind Tord, watching as his boss surveys the area. He's used to seeing Tord's arrogant and cocky demeanor, but he can't help but feel a sense of unease as he takes in the destruction around them. Paul tries to keep a neutral expression on his face, but he can't shake the feeling that things are about to spiral out of control. "Patryk's missing, sir."

What..?

Tord's expression darkens at Paul's words. "Missing?" he repeats, his voice low and dangerous. He turns to Paul, narrowing his eyes. "What do you mean 'missing'?"

Edd clutches a small device in his hand, his eyes narrowed in determination. He gazes through a makeshift portal, where he's supposed to head. He knows Tom and Matt are here.
