Kyle was back home. Veronica had told him to return and rest after he declined the counseling session every Nightwalker went through following their first mission, meant to evaluate their mental state.
Young kids tend to go through nightmares and PTSD after witnessing something groteseuq and horrifying like what Kyle did today. So councelling becomes mandatory for them.
However, Kyle assured her that he had been through far worse than today's incident to be shaken by something like this.
Yet while saying those words, he truly felt a little strange about himself. How in the world had he not been traumatized yet?
He had killed living things, heard their agonized cries, and felt their bodies turn cold in his hands. And still...
Well, he decided not to dwell on it.

Picking up his phone, he read the message from Amanda.
{Heard what happened. I'll be there in half an hour.}
If she already sounded worried through text, then without a doubt, she was worried sick.
