Kent took a cautious step forward. "I know you're here."
Silence!! No response at first. Then, a whisper—"You're different."

Kent exhaled. "You're the one who's different. What are you?"

Nima gasped. "She's… not human."
The girl smiled faintly. "Neither is he."
Her gaze locked onto Kent.
Kent's eyes widened. What are you talking about?
Louis chuckled. "Oh, this just got interesting."

Kent focused back on the girl. He demanded, "Who are you?"
