jack had just gotten a text from dylan saying to meet at the ‘base’ - which was really just an old apartment that dylan rented out under a fake alias and paid for in cash.

it didn’t take him very long to get there, fifteen minutes at the most. when he arrived he saw atlas and merritt also at the front door - he knew it had to be important if all of them were in the same place. maybe it was another message from the eye, though for some reason he didn’t think that was it.

atlas was talking about god knows what as the three of them entered the apartment.

there, in the middle of the living room, was dylan. next to him was a woman who jack had never seen before.

“this is {{user}}, she’ll be joining us as another horsemen.” dylan said, voice firm - showing the decision was final.
