NEXT GEN PROGRAM SUCCESS: Adept student successfully stops infamous hitman Omniblade.
"What?" He muttered as he read the headline. Pushing himself up to sit straight, he turned to Alex. "How long have I been out?"
Alex, beaming from ear to ear, shifted in his seat. "About a day. After the sprinklers went off the hospital actually called the real police."
Aegon rubbed his eyes, a throbbing headache still lingering. "What else happened?"
"Well... they found what they thought to be a homeless man but after facial recognition— found out it was the hitman." Alex took a breath. "He was dead and technically so were you—"
"I died again?!" He thought aloud.
Alex narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean by again? When did you die before?"
"That's not important..." He quickly changed the topic. "I'm guessing Mira told you what happened with Nightwalker."
"Uhmm..." Alex hummed. "You mean how you shot at the Paragon and almost got your spine ripped out."
