107

May 6th, 2051

You wake up to the sound of your Magifona buzzing incessantly and grumbling to yourself, you get up and pick up your phone. You blink and stare at the name on the phone: Ami Takahashi. Curious, you answer the call and Ami's voice hits your ear like a hammer. "Dorn Wilton! You're finally up, huh? Civilian life turned you into a lazy slob, hasn't it?" she says loudly. You glance at your phone again to look at the time: 7.26 a.m.

Sighing, you ask her what's going on and why she's calling you now. "No, just wanted to ask where you're at right now?" she asks innocently, and you can picture an evil grin on her lips when she says that. Cautiously, you tell her that you're at home right now in Zawame and she says, "Zawame, huh? I think we can be there in an hour's time. What do you think, Jax?" You blink in surprise and ask her what she and Jax are planning to do.

"Oh nothing. Jax and I are on leave as well, and we decided to crash in on you to see how you're doing…and by the sound of it, you're doing pretty fine," she says. "All right, catch you later then. We'll call you again when we're about to arrive at the train station. Oh, can you get us some rooms at your place? We'll be crashing there, of course," she continues before hanging up her phone before you can protest to the abrupt planning.

You stare at your phone in shock after what just happened and shake your head. Oh, great…you don't think your mom is going to like hearing this.
