Back in the safehouse, survivors Liam, Kiera, Morris, Shay, and Jacob sat on the couches in the living room. They've been talking about their situation and wonder about the status of the American soldiers out on their next mission. Shay's been anxious since Emmet went out to support the soldiers on their mission to cripple Null Sector's hold on the city.

"Don't worry Shay. Emmett is going to return. I'm sure the soldiers will bring him back safe and sound." Liam reassures Shay.

There was a brief pause. Shay sight moves to Liam and the rest of the group, as their lives were saved by the same soldiers Emmet tagged along with. Something told him that Liam is right about his thoughts of the operators.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. You know, I want to know about you two." Shay says before shifting his attention to Keira and Liam. "I heard you were at an auto show. Were you getting something for her?"

Liam smiled quickly. "Actually, it was another long distant errand my uncle sent me. Kiera decided to tag along to help me get the car he needed, the Nissan GTR X."

"Oh, I've never heard of it." Jacob notes.

"This car is something different from the rest, beside the fact there are only 10 out there." Liam adds. "We were lucky my uncle had a delivery crew in London and shipped the car out before Null Sector launched the uprising."

"Oh man, does your uncle know you two are alive?"

"Yes, we sent a message to let him know when the soldiers rescued us." Liam replies with a sigh of relief. "My uncle did a lot for me and the first thing I needed to do was for him to not worry."

"That's really good." Alex comments in. She looks to Keira and Liam. "This maybe weird to ask, but are you interested in cars too?"

Kiera laughed. "Well, kind of."

Morris blinks a few times. "Then that Nissan wouldn't be your dream car then."

The blonde girl giggled. "You got that right. I would go for a Chevy Impala from 1976 any day. Baby is iconic and has style."

"Let's not kid ourselves. You were into cars because of that Supernatural." Liam scoffed. "A ridiculously old show by the way."

"Don't be a butt, Liam." Kiera gasps as she lightly taps his arm. "My mother watched that show growing up and got me hooked into it. You got to watch a few episodes with me."

"Yeah, when we get out of this city." Liam turns his head to the front window of the building as he spots headlights of an armored van rolling into the highway. "They are here. I wonder who else they rescued."

"Maybe some rich person or the mayor." Shay guesses.

Liam laughs. "It be funny, but amazing, if it's Glen Thatcher."

"I wouldn't be so sure. He is probably outside of the city, safe from this madness." Morris predicts. He is the first to leave the lounge as he makes his way close to the front door and waits to greet the new survivors.

The door opens nearly abrupt. The first person was a tall, but thin man with hair that was obviously buzzed. He wore a T-shirt and jeans, but the face made Morris's jaw drop as the first guest enters the room with what he could carry, a small bag of stuff that managed to remain intact.

"Oh my god!" The cellphone technician gasps. "Liam, guess who walked in."

"Who? Glen? It was kind of a joke, but..." Liam snaps before emerging from the lounge to spot the famous chef, known for having a spicy temper and heated criticism since Gordon Ramsay.
