Preparations ran more high within an excluded group around the Boviers. Not only tactics and plans had to be defined, technological preparations had to be made too.
The remaining team mostly returned to work eight-hour shifts for the company, albeit for many current tasks looked much different from their old work life.
Moving to Düsseldorf was becoming a permanent decision for when business would return to normal. Jonathan had very personal reasons for this, though far from nostalgia.
A notification interrupted Madison’s workflow in tidying up the offices in the Centre Section of the building.
'Call me ASAP -4'
“I’ll bring these to the storage” she excused herself from work while carrying a cardboard box of old promotional articles.
Arriving at the storage she wandered around a bit to check if the surveillance cameras were still inactive and if any other people occupied it at the time. To her luck neither case turned out true.
“16?” Madison asked when calling the number she used to communicate with Henry.
“What are they doing?” Henry only asked, not questioning who called him.
“I don’t know, there is a closer group around the Boviers and I am not in it” she reported.
“Try to get inside” he ordered “I thought you were close to them.”
Madison stayed silent on this remark.
“I’m sure you’ll find a way” he continued upon her silence “Right?”
She sighed “Yes, I can think of something.”
“Oh and you better think of ways how they…” he thought for a moment before continuing with a chuckle “get into an accident.”
Henry ended the call before even getting a sign of a confirmation from Madison.
An accident? The thought felt distant to Madison, until just the time of a blink later, it overwhelmed her.
“M….son?”
“...wak...up”
Once more Madison found herself gathering fragments of sensory input and waning memories while waking up in a hospital bed.
