"They're back already?" one of the analysts inside the military van said as she noticed the heat signatures of the ten awakeners coming out of the gate.
"Nobody's hurt, right?" another analyst asked while focusing on the screen in front of her.
"Yeah... It doesn't even seem like they had a serious fight."
"Well, as expected of the C-Rank awakeners."
"But I don't think that's the case..." the analyst muttered to herself.

"Give me a rundown of what took place," Captain Morgan said as she looked at the awakeners now standing before her.
She was also surprised they had returned so quickly. Then again, they were C-Rank awakeners. However, unstable gates were unpredictable. This particular gate had already evolved once, and there was no guarantee what monstrosity could be in there.
That was precisely why ten awakeners had been dispatched instead of the usual five.
The team leader stepped forward and saluted Captain Morgan before giving a brief rundown of what had happened.
