I teleport to the gym where I know I will find my brother. I walk in, and he is seemingly trying to break yet another punching bag.

"Trouble sleeping?"

He chuckles. "You're here with a mission, ma'am?"

"At this point, Ady, I doubt anything would surprise me."

"Ten bucks says you're wrong, hon. There's a debriefing packet waiting for you back at your apartment. Love you!"

"I love you too, sis!"
