We have arrived at the church were Rachel's mum brought her when she was a baby. 

"Hello, there. Can I help-- you're back. My lord, it can't be. Is this her? Oh! Look how much you've grown. It's been such a long time, my child.  " The nun says as she let's us in. 

"You don't remember anything?" The nun says. 

"Not a thing. Only that I was looking for.." Korey says. 

"Her" The nun says. 

"Mmm Hmm. Did I say why?" Korey says.

"You cam here a year ago and said only that she was in danger. That they'd found her" The nun says. 

"Who found her?" Korey says. 

"You only said you just had to find her. And you did. And you brought her back to us, right as rain and as beautiful as ever. You came to us as just a baby. You and your mother, Melissa. You stayed with us for a while." The nun says. 

"You knew my mother?" Rachel says. 

"Yes. How is she?" The nun answers. 

"Oh, I'm sorry" The nun says, realizing she is dead. 

"What were they doing here?" Korey asks. 

"Your mother was worried about you. She was trying to protect you." The nun says. 

"Protect me from what?" Rachel asks. 

"I cannot say" The nun replies. 

"You don't remember anything about here, child?" The nun says. 

"That, maybe" Rachel says looking at the picture on the wall. 

"Mary meeting the divine. A favourite of mine. What does Mary see? Can forces we consider purely theological take corporeal form? Do you see a figure in the ether trying to emerge? A man?" The nun says to Rachel. 

"I'm not sure" Rachel says shaking her head. 

We then get lead to a room which was Rachel's when she stayed here and then Korey said we're going out then we get let to some bowling alley/arcade place. 

Me and Rachel had ordered some burger and chips and we are both sitting down on a table and eating our chips, when Korey comes over. 

"You should try some" I say. 

"Pass. you gonna be long with that?" Korey says to me.

"We ordered a burger too" Rachel says. 

"That cop you told me about in Detroit" Korey says. 

"Yeah. Dick. What about him?" Rachel says.

"He's not your father, is he?" Korey says. 

"No. He's my brother" I say. 

"Ok. Do you know anything about your father?" Korey says. 

"Not much. Mum.. Melissa never talked about him. I mean not ever" Rachel says.

"I'm gonna change this song before my head explodes" Korey says. 

"Well we need money for the arcade" I say. 

"Wait, really?" I say as Korey gives me a hundred dollars. 

"All I got" Korey says as she walks away. 

"Ok" I say as we get up. 

I am playing Twilight zone while Rachel is playing another a game somewhere else. 

"Hitchhiker lane. Nice" A male voice says beside me. 

I turn around to see a green haired boy. 

"Go for the camera sinkhole" The boy says. 

"I'm Gar" 

"I'm Sophie" We say at the same time. 

"I like your hair" 

"Your hair is cool" We say at the same time. 

"Look out!" Gar says. 

"Multiball!" We both shout.
