The very first thing Silvermist did the moment she stepped out of the simulation mirror was look for East or Cloud.
Her boots clicked sharply as her eyes darted across the crowd, scanning the familiar faces of the two Guardians and fellow apprentices, but there was no trace of either any of them.
Oddly enough, even their professors aren't around. It seems as though this simulation thing is confidential.
Her heart thudded. Something is indeed wrong, alright!
"Where are they?" she asked Mila and Adeline without preamble the moment she stood in front of them.
"East and Cloud?" Adeline echoed, tilting her head thoughtfully before giving a shrug. "They disappeared moments after the three of you entered."
Silvermist's eyes narrowed, her gaze sweeping across the gathered apprentices again before landing on the empty platform where Sebastian, West, and Ezekiel had stood earlier. She made a tsk sound in frustration.
"They're gone too," she muttered, groaning.
