In The Eyes of the Beholder

"Are you all ready?" Ran asked, walking into the room while he folded the sleeves of his dark blue dress shirt.

"Ready," Max said, pulling his shirt over his body as he ran down the stairs as quickly as he could.

"Shia and I have been waiting for you two," Aliya said, looking at the two with a bright smile on her face.

"Yeah, you two did take your time." Shia chuckled, smiling brightly at them. "So, where are we going?"

"Meeting a friend." Ran said, picking up a jacket and throwing it over his jacket. "Alex!"

"Yes, young master?" Alex appeared, looking slightly worn out.

"You look awful." Ran said staring at the driver. "What happened?"

"Well, some people have been trying to get in touch with you relentlessly and you have been ignoring them and I am trying to deal with the repercussions."

"Oh right," he said, thinking. "Tell them that I will be meeting them tomorrow."
