The man’s reply was a lie, Jon knew that, and he searched his memories for the evidence that would prove it true, but just as he was about to speak he heard a voice calling to him. Turning halfway around for a moment, Jon caught sight of Charlene coming toward him. “Charlene, now isn’t the best time...”

The sound of sirens was growing louder, and Jon was fairly certain they were coming for him; that, combined with Charlene’s unexpected arrival was beginning to worry and confuse him, and his train of thought began to evaporate. He had just started to turn back around when Isabelle appeared, and her warning sent a jolt of adrenaline through his veins. Jon quickly turned back to his captive, searching for the source of Isabelle’s alarm.
