As I look closer, I can see a pair of eyes watching me through the crowd. Ignoring my pounding heart, realization washes over me.

Mysteries Around Him

When I arrive at the address where the red dot was located on River’s tracking device, I noticed it looked like a warehouse that hadn’t been used in a long time. There is trash all over the ground in front of the closed roller door and the metal is rusted and deteriorating. 


I stare up at the warehouse trying to plan my next move. If the red dot is correct, this should be where River is. But why is he here? Did someone take him here? Or does he come here often for whatever reason, and I don’t know about it? Whatever it may be, I need to get inside and find him. 


I walk around the side of the building and spot a window about halfway down. As I approach it, my eyes dart around to make sure no one is watching me. But I shouldn’t be worried given I haven’t seen a single person in the area since arriving. Thankfully the sun is still a couple of hours away from setting, so I should be able to see inside the warehouse without any issues.
